Newsflash: Morons Often Get Very Desirable Jobs

Like learning a new word causes you to notice it a lot more in your everyday life, losing my job has caused me to notice how many morons still have theirs...and not joe jobs mopping the floor at the local elementary school, but, like, you know, awesome jobs.

Example 1 mega billion: the announcer for the Marquette v Utah State NCAA Tourney game literally made the following statement after a Utah State player dribbled the ball off his leg and his teammate picked up the ball and banked in a 3 pointer from the left side of the floor:

He took that loose ball off the floor, you know how hard that is to do (Me: no it's not, no one else was around him) and knocked it in like no one's business. No dribble. No nothing. He was intending to use the board. And he did. What a shot!

I'm paraphrasing slightly but that's close to verbatim. You read that right. The announcer (either Craig Bolerjack or Dan Wenzel) just claimed that a guy intended to use the back board for a three from the side of the court. A preposterous, borderline mental handicapped statement. I just can't let that slide it is so fucking stupid.

It was one of those panicky, lucky shots which makes this tournament so awesome. That is all.

The other guy poked fun at that announcer later, which is the only reason I found this more humorous than disgusting.
