Really?

Peter Day with the Hesperia Star wrote an article about the race between Rita Vogler and Brad Mitzelfelt and the "importance" of the SB Sun's endorsement of Vogler.  Day compares the race to "Rocky versus Apollo Creed."

FYI - For those of you who have had the luxury of watching any of the Rocky films (if you haven't watch all of them up until Rocky IV, the rest suck) you can agree that this makes no sense. 

Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed fight to a split decision in Rocky, Creed loses to Balboa in Rocky II, Creed trains Balboa in Rocky III to fight Mr. T, and then the end comes for Apollo Creed when he is killed by Soviet boxer Ivan Drago in Rocky IV and Rocky travels to the USSR to avenge his death.

So are we to take from Day's article that the loser of this race will go into retirement only to come back to help the other defeat a common enemy, perhaps the Soviets ala Rocky IV? Maybe we will find Brad has the Eye of the Tiger.  Will Rita be running up the steps of SB County Government Office Building?  When I read nonsense I feel it only appropriate to pile on.

I hope you enjoyed this trip back to the 1970's and 1980's; here is your in-flight video of James Brown's video of "Living in America" from Rocky IV.

Also, if you ever want to really get into if someone has an agenda when it comes to a story take a look at the link to a story on a web page.  This one has "...mitzelfelt_postmus.html"  CNN is notorious for this.  They have posted stories of President Bush with the webpage address saying things like moron.jpg or a--hole.html.
