Ow! Ow! My head!

I get e-mail:

Attention NCSSM Alumni,

Be sure to come out tomorrow evening, Friday, November 16, to support the NCSSM Men's Varsity Soccer Team as they play in their first-ever NCHSAA 1-A State Championship against East Montgomery. The game is tomorrow evening at 5 o'clock at:

Durham Bulls Soccer Stadium
At WRAL Soccer Center
7700 Perry Creek Road
Raleigh, NC 27616-5704

Okay, let me get this straight.  There's a Durham Bulls Soccer Stadium.  In Raleigh.  In NORTHEAST Raleigh, a good 40 minute drive from Durham.

WHAT THE HELL?

Yes, I know.  Capital Broadcasting owns Durham Bulls and WRAL, so they're using this as a marketing opportunity.  But look at it again.

The naming rights to a stadium have been bought.  By another sports franchise.  IN A DIFFERENT SPORT THAT DOESN'T EVEN PLAY THERE!  INCLUDING THE NAME OF A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT CITY!

On a remotely related note, WRAL-FM has now started playing Christmas music, earning them a nomination for the coveted Christmas Creep awards, joining 102.9 in that dubious distinction.  (More on the CC Awards soon.)

Oh, one more thing...

Secant tangent cosine sine!
3.14159!
Physics, Bio, Polymer Chem!
Give 'em hell, Go S&M!
