Cheating in sports

I'm reading my sports blogs about people now a days and it has come to my attention one particular case of a track and field runner from South Africa .

So this teen girl apparently has bust out, yes I said that, these great times that no other woman can compete with on certain track events. So when you are called a cheater it has usually been along the lines of performance enhancing drugs or performance enhancing swimsuits. In this South African teen case, her gender has been questioned.
What the hell. So she runs great times over the others, she's 18 freaking years old and her competitors are a bit older than her. So now she's a man because she running faster times, and better yet, broken her own South African record in her events.

I see something wrong here, if no one else does.

To get on with the story, she has to undergo all of these test to determine if she was a woman. I mean really. How many test can there really be to determine a person's gender. Do a blood draw and be done with it already. The verification requires a physical medical evaluation, and includes reports from a gynecologist, endocrinologist, psychologist, an internal medicine specialist and an expert on gender.

And even if they find out that she is a woman, that still doesn't expunge her from cheating, even though she hasn't cheated in the first place.

So you think you can dance finale

I am going to be upset if the person I like doesn't win. Go Brandon!

The results, he lost. Second place, and I called for those 2 hours the lines were open. Each time I called there was a busy signal. So my conclusion is that the finale was rigged. Like all things on TV these days.

So I tried calling for the two hour period for my favorite dancer on the show, so you think you can dance, but it was busy the whole time. Therefore I'm

Who Ya' Gonna Call?...not 911

So I'm reading this blarticle , and yes I totally made this word up, about people calling 911 for non emergency cases. Well these were some very strange cases. From people calling the police on the employees of McDonald's to a woman calling to get the phone number of the cop that came to her house. These were really some strange, yet, wasteful reasons to call 911 but hey anything can happen these days.

The reason for this is to mention that calling 911 with a non-emergency reason carries some very hefty fines and a jail sentence anywhere from 1-5 years! It is cheaper for you to park in a handicap space than to call 911, think about that. It seems ridiculous that you can get that much time in jail for calling a number.
