Controversy

In case you haven't heard the press coverage, Dobson has made a few statements about Barak Obama as of late. I have become increasingly disillusioned with Dobson over the past few years and it has finally come to a head for me. He seems insistent that the entirety of politics be boiled down to Abortion and Gay Marriage. I'm just not willing to make it so simple.

In his latest claim to fame, he has made a few strong statements regarding Senator Obama and his interpretation of scripture. I think he COMPLETELY missed the point of Obama's speech.

For that reason, I really enjoyed the following site. Here you can read the entire speech and listen to Dr. Dobson's rebuttal on his radio broadcast. The site also gives a breakdown of the claims on both sides: point by point.

I found it very fair, honest, and refreshing. If you'd like to review the issue, I encourage you to check out the site:

The Mariners Hit a High Note

So the Mariners season has been nothing short of depressing this year. As a result the General Manager, the skipper and the hitting coach have all lost their jobs. The Mariners have scrapped together only a handful of wins and are on pace to have the worst record in Mariners history. So why keep watching? Well every now and then something amazing happens.

June 23, 2008 - Game 1 of a 3 Game interleague series vs the Mets at Shea Stadium. Felix Hernandez (Seattle Pitcher) comes to the plate looking for his second career hit....



An opposite field grand slam. The first time an American League pitcher has hit a grand slam since 1971. Incredible.

He's the one guy we WON'T fire this year.
