#1 "Journalist" finds out that his profession is less respected than he thinks he's entitled to.
In other news Scorpion complains about public perception of its stinger.

#2 "I easily imagine sitting in the bleachers, eating a hot dog (or three) and drinking a Coke, talking football (the American kind) with parents and maybe slipping in a little 9/11 if they allow me.

It's the "slipping in of a little 9/11" that has the good people of Texas concerned.

#3 "Ten miles," he wrote Sunday in a blog post. "That's how deep I got into Texas before being asked to leave."

First of all jacknut, they didn't stop you and tell you to turn back, you stopped in uninvited, were rude, and were asked to not film. You were not escorted out by police or on a rail.

Why rude, like many parents across the land they are at the game to watch their kids play ball, not smookle with some out of town douchebag trying to frame a story.

I want to eat hot dogs and talk american football with you. May I film your kids? whatta dork.
