Random SBP Thoughts
- Thanks goodness the bus strike has come to an end. But what really takes the cake is the shot of a gas-guzzling stretch Suburban in today’s newspaper taking away union leader Andre Cornelier after the agreement to go to binding arbitration. So if he doesn’t mind screwing students, the elderly and the disabled from providing what is an essential service, he obviously also doesn’t care much about the environment or conserving union dues and taking less-gaudy means of transportation.
- God bless Ray Emery for continuing his boneheaded shenanigans by attempting to beat up a trainer who was simply doing his job by asking him to wear a corporate-sponsored hat. I’m not sure what his chances are of coming back to the NHL when he’s trying to clean up his act, not reaffirm his reputation as a hot-head, even though he's posted strong numbers.
- So Mickey Rourke has now stated he will NOT wrestle at Wrestlemania 25 in Houston, but will still be in attendance to watch the show. Perhaps some kerfuffle will result from his ringside seat (perhaps some good old fashioned interference while watching Chris Jericho wrestle) but at least this is a far cry from entering the ring. I firmly believe if he went through with it, his chances of winning the best actor Oscar would have been slim to none.
- Finally, Chris Benoit's doctor pleaded guilty to illegally distributing pain medication to his patients, although the name Benoit was not specifically mentioned at the court hearing. But really, it doesn't need to. I hope this gets the message across that doctors don't have carte blanche to distribute this crap to those who should not being taking them.
