Today's the last day to get your entry in our "Name this Blog" contest, so get creative and help us out!
Kentucky Derby
If you were around The Bench Warmer this time last year, you'll remember a few posts about The Kentucky Derby and Afleet Alex, the horse who made everyone a fan. This year there was no Afleet Alex or storyline like that, so the headlines didn't really grab my attention. The race is still fun to watch, though, and after the Derby there's always the Triple Crown talk.
Lee Ann, our resident horse expert, weighs in on the Derby winner and if he, or any horse, ever has a shot at the Triple Crown.
American Idol
The big talk around the office yesterday was American Idol and who got kicked off. Chris Daughtry, the favorite in many people's minds, received the least amount of votes and won't be back next week with the final three. I'll have to admit that I've seen Idol and was also disappointed that Chris got kicked off. He brought a harder edge to the show that made it interesting.
If you haven't read Lee Ann's interview with Kaitlin Johnson, an apostolic who made it to the third round of Hollywood week on idol, check it out now!
