Three Stories That Need Attention

1. Aramark and Fenway Park announced that they are going to keep prices the same at the concession stands this year. You still only have to pay $7 a beer at Fenway. Thanks, fellas! Now in the stadium's defense (and having worked at Gillette for 2 years and seeing some of the figures) they don't make the killing per beer that you would expect. That being said, they shouldn't put out a press release patting themselves on the back so much. They're still over-charging because they've got the captive audience.

2. The cop in Dallas who prevented NFL running back Ryan Moats from seeing his dying mother-in-law has been suspended by the force. Also, they've dismissed the ticket that Moats received for running the red light. So, they're even now, right?

3. Hold on, the creepy guy trying to sell me ShamWows and Slap Chops is into illegal activities? And it's prostitution, of all things. I would have thought he could have had his pick of the ladies at the flea market. If you had told me he had been arrested my money totally would have been on cocaine possession.
