Hello everyone,

I would like opinions on what you believe is more important to you.

A: Cheaper airline ticket prices at the expense of having an inexperineced  pilot right out of flight school flying your family and you?

B: Or paying a little more on your tickets knowing your airline pilots have adequate flight experience. Keep in mind having fligh experience does not mean trained because all pilots are trained in the airline industry to standards. However flight experirence is whole different monster.

Do you know that most regionals, are currently hiring young aspiring pilots with 400 hours of total experience with as low as 50 hours of twin engine airplane time that have never flown a jet to fly your family to their destination?

These regionals are contracted or owned by Major Airline carries we all know. Curious to get your opinion and what you think on this.

After listening to Mike and Mike on ESPN I could not help but comment on what Mike Golic says on the Travis and Trent Green hit. Could not log this into espn so I shall vent here.

Mike Golic,I  followed your career and have respected you throughout, however your viewpoint on the Trent Green injury is insulting, cowardly, and worse classless. I agree with the statement that if Travis would have gotten his knee blown out, it would not be an issue on talkshows. The injury to Trent is severe and unfortunate, HOWEVER, as you mentioned injuiries are a part of football. It does not matter if its a QB with notoriety or a lesser known lineman. The issue is the way Travis ACTED AFTER the incident. The hit was legal. Should it be changed? Possibly. But the manner that Travis acted on the field was in the way of a Jack@$$ and a coward! A pure full fledge classless coward. To taunt someone because of a legal hit in a sport of contact when the man is down and possibly paralyzed at the time is just wrong. For you to defend this guy mentioning he acted with emotion? Where was his emotion during the interview? He never apologized. Again its not for the hit, its for the way he demonstrated the coward he really is. Totally disagree with you on this issue, NOONE should be taunted while they are down suffering for doing NOTHING wrong.

I just viewed the video of OSU's Coach defending his players and morals. All I have to say is "Finally!"

Good for you coach!

Please lets not turn this into an african american superbowl! Not 30 seconds into the Colts victory, it was already advertised as such. It was great games by both TEAMS, COACHES and PLAYERS not ethnics or heritage. Although rooting for Patriots, I am happy for Dungy, class man.

As I sit here to write my first ever blog it unfotunately is in disgust and anger towards a man that shows no respect, and who I personally consider a coward. A man that would stand up and without regard or respect direct insulting remarks to a leader, whether liked or not, has no business allowed in the UN and I pray the leader will not be voted in. Mr. Chavez may have his opinions and truely he shows his true low economic terroristic ideals on how he would so call have the empire fall, however, when he does make this claim, this so called empire he now refers to involves myself and all of our proud USA citizens. It is this very "empire" although we all do not agree with policies abroad, gives us that very freedom to show our differences. To plot against our own government in the attempt of a fall is communistic in the very least and should not be tolerated. Anyone who favors this ideal in my opinion should find another country to live in, which carries me into my renewed disrespect for Mr. Glover. To side with a coward that is against the very liberty that is provided for Mr.Glover as well, should be considered disrespectful and in my views anti- american.
Needless to say I refuse to purchase any products form Citgo.
Not to mention Mr. Glovers career will not be supported from my wallet, (anyone wanna buy my Lethal weapons DVD set, it will be on EBAY). I may not have ALL the details and do not claim to be a politician, however, I am proud to be living in a great country, though not perfect, it is still a proud country.
