Essay 4569


Merging stupidity and ignorance in a MultiCultClassics Monologue…

• Coors and Miller have merged their breweries in to better compete with Budweiser. Hmmm. The two brands with the most contrived and corny advertising hope to knock down the King of Beers. Wonder what these folks have been drinking.

• An arbitrator ruled NFL quarterback Michael Vick must give back $20 million in bonus loot to the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons argued the disgraced athlete violated his contract by his involvement in illegal dogfighting; plus, he used money from his contract to finance the illegal activities. Heaven forbid the team should also investigate all the money fans pour into fantasy football pools and gambling.

• A student in Nashville, Tennessee, is suing her high school after she was banned from wearing a t-shirt supporting the Jena 6. An assistant principal had stopped the student from entering the school wearing the shirt because it could “cause a problem.” Guess the assistant principal was right about that.
