Super Bowl Gloom

Wow! Did you catch today's interview from Head Coach, Ken Whisenhunt, of the Arizona Cardinals? In a jam packed press room 'The Whizzer' told how he saw his teams chances this coming Sunday---and it isn't pretty. "I just don't know how we can stay with the Steelers", he stated. "They have the very best linebacking corp in the NFL along with the best defense. Our wide receivers do not have the speed of the black and gold, even with us having All-Pro, Larry Fitzgerald. Kurt Warner has been our leader all year long but, quite frankly, he's old and not up to being a winner in Sunday's game." Finally, Coach Whisenhunt stated: "Vegas has us getting 8 points. It should be 18. Flat out, we're a bunch of losers".
Of course,I'm kidding about all of this but if you happen to listen to every interview coming from our new President down through every spokesperson this is the prevailing attitude. It's twenty-fours of doom and gloom and dread. We might as well lock ourselves in lead lined caskets. We're as good as dead. We've had seven, maybe eight recessions in my lifetime. I've survived them all; fat and happy. I've gone into recessions overweight and come out a bucket of oats heavier. Our economy is not the worst since the Great Depression. The Messiah finally admitted, yesterday, that this recession is the worst in three decades. Hmmm, thirty years, 1979. I believe that would be Jimmy Carter.
Folks, there has to be a ray of sunshine once in awhile. We have to have a reason to get out of bed in the morning without grabbing a couple of valium. I coached long enough to know if you continually tell your players they're crap they'll spend four hours looking for the Charmin. Face it, Democrats have made a living off of spouting bad news but there has to come a time when Americans say, "Stop. We've had enough"!
