WORLD SERIES

It’s unbelievable how many people have asked me who is going to win the World Series. It’s upward towards 200 people.

It’s real simple: Cards in 5

The Cardinals will win the first 2 games. Then lose Saturday. Then finish it out on Sunday and Monday.

I’m looking at a high scoring affair on the Cardinals end. When they win they will score over 5 runs per game.  Their loss will be a blowout. Everybody will say here come the Sox. Then they will lose their next two.

How do you like that descriptive prediction.

I’m sort of an expert and you’re welcome.

Losers, in more ways than one. The beards aren't going to do anything for you bro.

This is why the Cardinals will win

Why Save the Redskins?

It was kind of weird yesterday. Somebody stopped me on the street and said, "Aren't you the guy that operates Imsortofanexpert.com?" I said, "Why yes I am." He wanted my take on the Washington Redskin's name controversy that has been going on lately. Some politically correct people want the name changed. This is how I explained it to him.

The Redskin guy used as the logo does not exist anymore. Today's Indian tribes are not this guy. This guy in the logo stopped being around when the 1900's came about. This Redskin image is a romantic image of what Indians use to be. They were Proud people who are interesting to read about. I love Indians. I’m well schooled in the history of Indians. Indians are known for their hunting prowess and their bravery. That's why they were mascots. People thought Indians were "cool". This is a very proud image of what an Indian use to be. Back in the day they were call Redskins. By keeping the Redskin name we are honoring the Indian culture. If you were a normal kid growing up you always wanted to be the Indian when you played Cowboys and Indians. The Redskin name and logo is truly about honor.

Why Christopher Columbus Should Be Honored

At work somebody came up to me and asked me why I always speak about Columbus Day as being important. The simple answer is that it was important that Columbus discovered America when he did. If somebody from a country that was able to colonize America didn’t discover America until 100 years later than 1492 think about how that would have changed the modern world. America would have not been a mature enough country to win World War II and defeat Communism. The world’s modern economy runs off of America. Christopher Columbus and the country of Spain should be honored every second Monday in October. He was brave enough to sail to an unknown land in 1492.  Because of him the world modernized faster.  Europe was able advance because of the gold in America. Also the new trade routes empowered everybody. Your life is easier because of Christopher Columbus.

I know, Columbus wasn’t the first to discover America. But he was supported by a country who could colonize America and make it into something beneficial. The Vikings and the Chinese found the land first. But there is a big difference between finding a piece of land and actually doing something with it. Spain and England did something with the Americas.

I always hear people disparage Columbus for killing the native population. It was 1492. Those were the times. If it wasn’t Columbus and the Spaniards killing the native people it would have been somebody else. In those times countries conquered. Kill or be killed.  

HAPPY COLUMBUS DAY
