Wall Street Examiner Forums and Bears Chat: Why Am I Doing This Blog? - Wall Street Examiner Forums and Bears Chat

Cause as Richard Gere said in an "Officer and A Gentleman",,,,,"I got nowhere else to go!"...No....seriously....my family hates me?....no...well actually,,,,,kind of...especially my sisters...."because I hate the media?"....bingo....but what inspired this? My wife Chris. She's the best.

I'll tell you a story. I was an athlete through college and played three sports. Growing up I had this simplistic vision of sports rules and actions until my future wife and I went on a date to our local minor league ball park.

It was a beautiful evening... sun setting over the stands, 75 degrees and a gentle wind blowing across the field. You could smell the grass and hot dogs grilling and hear the crack of the bat. It was cool.

Then my wife looks at me after an out and out of the blue asks me..."why are they throwing the ball around the infield?" Holy sheet! What??! I never thought about it. Then she asked me why do guys spit. And why do guys scratch their balls.

Oh man...

Damn...again....What??!!!

So I sat there and finally came up with a first answer. "Because they are happy!" To this day I remind her of how that friggin blew my mind. And that to me is Fast Money...Mad Money...Power Lunch...Squawk Box....CNBC and I am asking why are they on? Same feeling. So I thank my wife for that.

After we were married, she asked me when we were at a hockey game, "Why do teams have goons?"

NOT AGAIN!!!...sheet. "Because they are territorial!"

"Yes but why?"

"Come on !!!! Why do I have to think about it?"

My ultimate goal is to question the stupidity of the media. Ask why the pundits get to cherry pick their calls without recourse and illustrate how stoopid this sheet is. The stock market is a joke. Maybe they will fix it but seeing how we are a decade into this three ring circus, maybe this is it until it's closed and reopened for business after renovation.

Ten years! A decade and people are nothing more than hamsters on a wheel and still the same personalities in the media are sold to us as experts. Blow me.

Fire all of em. CNBC sucks. If there was a trial, with evidence, with calls documented... As for the smelly Haines bottom? I hope we don't get near that.
