Kid walks in today, and the following conversation exchange takes place:
Kid: Do you have anything I can stick my Wii into?
Me: That is a dirty question and I refuse to answer it.

ATTENTION, ATTENTION!
The following things are awesome:
1) Roger Clemens and his inability to pitch for the Yankees.
2) The new flavor of Full Throttle, Blue Demon.
3) The new Rooney album. It really is worth a second mentioning. Make sure you pick it up when it releases on July 17th.
That is all.

Chris Benoit and family found dead. EDIT times 3
Holy fucking Shit. I am in utter shock. I can't believe that Chris Benoit is dead, and that his entire family is dead as well. They were found dead this morning. For those of you who don't know - Chris Benoit was a professional wrestler for WCW/WWE..a multi-champion and just an all-round great entertainer. It sucks that he (and his family) have died. I stopped watching wrestling over a year ago, but even so, I enjoyed his matches. Especially anything he and Lance 
Storm did together. Once again, Chris Benoit dead at the age of 40.
Also, they're saying that the instruments of the murder were found at the scene, and it could be a "possible murder suicide." And the day before Benoit actually cancelled an appearance to spar with fellow wrestler CM Punk before an event. Now he's fucking dead. What the hell?
[EDIT: Okay, well after all the news and shit has poured in...they're saying the Chris Benoit killed his wife and son over the weekend, and then himself yesterday (Monday). There were no gunshot or stab wounds, and ...no one really knows what happened yet. Jesus, I feel stupid. I did like Benoit, but apparently the cat is a murderer. It's a crazy fucking world.]
[EDIT 2: Okay, so Benoit strangled his wife to death, and then smothered his son to death, then he went ahead and hung himself in his weight room. And it's all being linked to Steroids. Man.]
[EDIT 3: WWE.com has posted text messages from Benoit to WWE wrestlers/friends. Mainly just his address over and over (can't send a card there now...can I?) and one to Chavo Guerrero telling him to let his dogs out. Regardless, this is a very sad sad story; immediately linked to roid rage. I really think Steroids get a bum rap.]

Oh yeah, Rod Beck Died.
Rod Beck died today, I forgot to post that in my rant about the All Star game. I'm saddened by 
this, because Rod Beck was awesome. He was a fat, overweight, handle bar mustache wearing guy, but he was fucking awesome. He didn't throw the ball very hard, and he wasn't very good at baseball, but he got the job done. Him and that handle bar mustache will be sincerely missed here at Marc and JD's Blog of Awesomeness.
Beck pitched for a lot of teams, The Giants, the Cubs, Red Sox, and Padres. He had a win-loss record of 38-45, 286 saves, and a 3.30 lifetime ERA (not as bad as it looks), and he was a three time all-star. All this means is that the fans liked him. I found it to be pertinent to my particular situation of hating the All Star Game. However, Rod Beck was actually good those years.
Thank you, and sorry for the quick post.

Why JD doesn't watch the MLB All Star Game...Part II
I was just checking over the updated ballot for the Major League Baseball All-Star game. Much to my chagrin, the Mets aren't doing so well. Sure their infield will pretty much field the NL side of the game, but that's too be expected. Stupid New York Met fans with nothing better to do just simultaneously click their mouses over and over (for the max 25 votes) and then they make up e-mail addresses and do it again. One thing that makes me so happy I could cry is the fact that Russ Martin of the Dodgers is edging Paul LoDuca out of the NL Catcher Spot.
For those of you who don't know, or haven't realized, I hate fucking Paul LoDuca. I hate him. I really do. Moreso than I hate David Wright, or Tom Herr. I don't know why, honestly, I just fucking do.
Anyway, Prince Fielder is going to edge out Albert Pujols for the NL 1st Baseman Starting spot. As well he fucking should, the guy has been hammering the holy bejesus out of the ball. He's hitting .283, with 26 Long balls, and 61 rbis. Pujols (whom I think is awesome, don't get me wrong) is batting .303 with 16 long balls and 47 rbis. Pujols' OBP is better, it's just that he hasn't displayed the type of power that Fielder has yet. Granted, Fielder is on a much better team and Pujols is on a sinking ship with a bird-emblem. Fielder is a good choice.
Chase Utley is another surprise for JD, because I have always called the All Star game a popularity contest (it is), but Utley is actually deserving of the 2B spot on the NL side. Kelly Johnson maybe have 8 HRs, but I mean the guy is as inconsistant as ever. Utley's batting .322 to Johnson's .274, Utley has 30 doubles, to Johnson's 13. Although, take into consideration that Utley isn't leading off.
3rd Base is going to fucking bewilder me. I know that Chipper Jones was hurt and all that. And that David Wright was in a slump, but considering the fact that he's still batting - fuck it...look:
Jones' stats: .320 Avg, .408 OBP, 13 HR, 28 RBI, 38 runs!, 15 doubles, 1 3b.
Wright's stats: .289 Avg, .373 OBP, 12 HR, 40 RBI, 41 runs, 18 doubles, 1 3b.
You've got to be fucking kidding me. This jaggoff is leading
the All Star rankings? And by jaggoff I mean David Wright. Come-the fuck-on here. It aggravates me to no-end to see this. And to think that David Wright has played 20 more games! I mean, Chipper Jones has scored 38 runs! Thirty-Eight runs, for those of you who can't read numbers, in 51 games with a team that had a cleanup hitter that was hitting below .200! I means that in 51 games, Chipper Jones hits the fucking ball! Isn't that what a hitter batting third is supposed to do ...consistently? I know this is going to piss off Marc, but I'm so fucking peeved by this shit I'm thinking of sending a letter to Omar Minaya explaining why (and how much) I hate him.Jesus. Lest we forget that Miguel Cabrera deserves the reigns more than both of them (granted Chip was hurt for 20 games) Cabrera who has played 71 games has a .327 Avg, .395 OBP, 16 HR, 53 RBIs, 45 runs, 20 doubles, 2 3b.
I'm fucking flabbergasted. I really don't understand the All
Star game, isn't he point to get the best player out there and not some fucking hack that the fans voted for. I mean, Jesus-Fucking-Christ, what's the point? If the best man for the job isn't out there hitting, fielding, and eating sunflower seeds..then what, my friends, is the point of all this?
