Slap YOUR Grandma

I was watching the CMA something or other earlier in the week and suffering through all the regular performances by Trace Adkins and the ilk, when it dawned on me. I need to devote an entire website to documenting the continual downfall of real country music. As the aforementioned Adkins rapped his way through the huge hit, "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk" for the 1 millionth time and a crowd full of people with cheap straw cowboy hats with wire brims shimmied along and spilled Bud Light all over one another, I realized I had to do something...anything.

So I'm announcing a change of format here. For the past few months, much of my sportswriting, the reason I started my own little web corner, has moved to my blog on FoxSports anyway, so why not separate the two? I'll still be detailing the 06 Nebraska football season, as well as making a fool of myself with weekly college picks just like last year, and I'm planning on starting a quasi-regular sports book review column there as well.

So what's in store for this site? Well, my hope is it won't be just a series of posts complaining about Big & Rich, which would be easy enough, but something with a little more substance and humor. There will be album reviews, an "Instead of that, listen to this..." feature, a few posts complaining about Big & Rich, and regular photos of Trace's badonkadonk. Once Nashville Star starts showing again, I'll probably get wrapped up in that and be embarrassed about it. (I know the show is crap, but it's fun to watch Nashville dissolve right before your eyes. Seriously, if the people don't know that forearm tattoos are exactly what we need right now, then screw 'em.)

Regular updates will hopefully begin to appear in the coming weeks.
