Punching

The Onion always has a USA Today-like color statistical graph on the lower corner of their front page. A few years ago they ran one that was exceptionally funny. It was “Who most deserves a good old fashioned cock punching?” Among the leading candidates were Freddy Prinze Jr and Jared from Subway.

If that question were asked today, I have no doubt as to who the top vote getter would be.

Here’s the thing, until last night, I had never watched even one minute of American Idol. Since I’m a stubborn ol’ cuss, I was actually really proud of that. However, the sports editor at the paper is this really nice older guy, salt of the earth type person, and he loves the show. So we decided to tune in for the last five minutes to see who won.

Before that, I was kind of hopeful that “Soul Patrol” would win because it struck as so insanely NON-POP STAR. Some prematurely gray-haired, chubby-faced guy winning a pop star contest against a gorgeous brunette seemed like a stupid thing that I could support.

Then, the first second of American Idol I ever see in my life is “Soul Patrol” singing the opening lines of “I’ve Had The Time of My Life.”

Wow. Unbelievably just, uh, horrific, really. Yeah, the hottie was singing it, too, but it was just insanely lame and bad.

I agree, Chuck. Dude needs a pretty solid cock-punch.

That McPhee girl, though. Wow. That’s a pretty girl.
