I used to live in a world I sometimes understood --now it is Katie Bar the Door! I can't understand
North Koreans, Rand Paul and the Tea Party, the hostility of Congress and the issues of the day. In fact, there is so much fighting on every moral and theological issue, that we no longer expect to find answers. We are only seeking outlets for our points of view. At least I understand the Rutgers Coach being fired! Wonder if they would have fired him had no video existed! I think not! He was outed!
I don't want to throw cold water on society and societal choices. I'm just saying, I don't understand it. But I want to live in it and I want it to make sense to me. So Mike Rice, I'm starting with you. So you threw a ball at your players and called them expletives. So you got fired and now they might fire the AD or the Prez. I can even understand that whole scene. (Looks like the Prez will survive!)
The whole thing was summed up by Martin Bashir Show. A commentator said, "There would be fewer out of control coaches if the players could carry guns." I hope that he was kidding about this and I think he was. Like I said, I can't understand how anyone would intellectually put these two points together!
What have I got to gripe about today! It's Dr. Martin Luther King's birthday! And what hostility he faced in his day! Assassinated when he was 39 years old, King taught us how to turn the other cheek and face the danger every day! Who am I kidding ---I did not understand his world back then....but I sometimes tried.
