Detroit Red Wing Fans
Why they are jerks:  These classless fans of Hockeytown USA should have the title removed.  I totally supported Gary Bettman getting booed as he come to center ice to hand off the Stanley Cup... that guy is an grade A jerk, but that is another post.  The fact that the Red Wings fans booed as the Cup was skated around Joe Louis Arena just shows why Detroit is a rotten pit.  When the Red Wings hoisted the Cup last year inside Mellon Arena, the Penguins faithful were kind enough to politely clap and respect the amazing feat of winning the Stanley Cup.  Couple the raining of boos with the bitching by Detroit players that Sidney failed to shake the hands of every player.  Forget about the fact that NBC grabbed Crosby immediately after the clock reached 0:00 or the fact that he was hugging his coaches and teammates.  That stuff is not important.  What was necessary at right that second was for him to skate over on his one leg and shake Zetterberg's hand with no delay.  Last year the Penguins sat dejected on the ice waiting as the Red Wings jumped all over each other.  They stood on the ice after the hand shake and watched as the Cup was presented.  But the veteran Detroit team could not wait five damn minutes before getting to the losers locker room.  Classy.  To the fans that hung around and booed... get a life; if you don't want to watch the presentation, just leave.  No one was chaining you to your seat... but I can understand not wanting to walk outside after that game. You will either be shot/mugged by a now jobless GM worker or have to look at that empty shell of a city.  Depressing all around.  Maybe the name Hockeytown USA should be moved to the 412 area code.



                                                          

Who ever came up with Cheetos Lip Balm
Why they are a Jerk:  Because they came up with a Lip Balm that smells and tastes like Cheetos.  WTF?  What else is there to say?  I would rather use Cuban Tranny Sweat flavored chap stick than this crap.  How in this economy can a business justify creating this?  Does Frito Lay know about this?  How could they give the go ahead?  What are they getting paid to license such a crappy flavor? This is just wrong on so many levels. It kind of makes me angry.



                                                            
AT&T
Why they are Jerks:  If you own an iPhone then you know exactly where I am going with this.  Yesterday, Apple released the newest software upgrade for my most precious piece of techno love.  iPhone 3.0 was to be the software upgrade that would finally make Apple's must have phone do all the stuff regular phones do.  Multimedia messages (MMS) have never been part of the iPhone's many sweet features.  Yet 50 dollar POS phones that have screens the size of my thumb nail could send and receive video and pics since the beginning of this decade.  WTF Apple?  Then Apple announced 6 months ago that 3.0 was in development and that it would allow MMS... sweet.  Apple made the announcement last week listing more than a dozen new features including MMS would be here this week... except for AT&T customers that is.  Apple released the developer 3.0 software months ago but AT&T felt there was no need to rush something as simple as MMS.  Instead the 40,000,000 iPhone users have to wait until "later this summer" (read: fall) to use a basic function of ever single other cell phone on the planet Earth.  I hate AT&T with a passion.  They have crappy customer service, they have spotty service and a sluggish 3G network and if it were not for my undying love of my iPhone I would have jumped ship more than a year ago.  So thank you AT&T...I will be stuck listening to people say things like: "What do you mean your phone did not get the picture text I sent you?" and "Your phone can play The Dark Knight in HD but can't get a picture message?  Why do you love it?"  This is killing me.  Canada has it... but we don't?  How is this acceptable.


Jerk Store Update...

Last week I called out Brett Favre and said he would accounce his return to the NFL after the NHL and NBA playoffs were completed... and what happened?  On Monday night Brett went on to Joe Buck's multi-train wreck HBO special to announce that he is interested in becoming a Viking.  Just another rung in his climb towards Jerk Store HOF status. Can I call them or what?  You can thank me later.

Thanks for coming and suckling on Daddy's Sugar Ball... be sure to follow us on facebook.
