Sickened...

I know it’s silly to get bitter and so affected by things that I have no control over. However, I’m sitting here stewing. What’s got me so fired up? Is it the way that Hilary Clinton has been spinning, lying, and attacking her way through her campaign? Is it the fact that my upstairs neighbor was stomping around in her lead weight shoes last night on her wood floors at midnight? Is it that I’m angry at myself for not going to the first day of my new boot camp session this morning? It could be any one of those things…but for now…it’s this…

I just read on ESPN.com that Kobe Bryant is going to be named league MVP. (I just had to take the deepest breath right there because my heart felt like it was being strangled) I just don’t get it. Who in their right mind would vote for Kobe? Yes, he’s a phenomenal player…I will give him that. But the MVP: they’ve got to make their teams, the players around them, the fans, the city, the game around them BETTER. And Kobe, in the light of what Kevin Garnett has done in Boston and what Chris Paul has done in New Orleans, is NOT the MVP. He is the epitome of selfish, self-absorbed, ethically-challenged, fair-weather, and undeserving. I’m sick that as MVP, he’ll join in the ranks of class acts like Tim Duncan and Steve Nash…company he should NEVER be grouped with. It breaks my heart that in one of the best NBA seasons we’ve seen in a long time, he’s the one that’s gonna be the MVP. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.…

Tell me, does common sense exist anymore in our world today...because I'm beginning to doubt? Ugh.
