September 13, 2023 News and Notes

• Reports coming out that Bang-Bang Barbie got herself thrown out of a theatre performance in Denver Sunday night.  Vaping, singing, recording the performance, and creating a disturbance.
• In short, Lauren Boebert was ejected for...  being Lauren Boebert.    
• At least two California high schools have cancelled football games because (at least in part) of outbreaks of the new COVID strains.  It hasn't taken a more national hold...  yet.  And one might have to wonder if the fact we're three years in gives a little more insight as to how to deal with it.  
• Another air-lift last week, this one in Florida -- this one far more nefarious.  Marianna High School's quarterback, Ethan Lipford, was in the middle of a heated rivalry game with Blountstown High School when Gavin Lambeth nailed Lipford, slammed his head into the turf twice, and then bashed him in the face with his helmet.
• Last report is that Lipford is out of the hospital.
• Lambeth was ejected.
• There is no further word on sanctions, either by the Florida high-school athletics administration, the school, or the authorities.
• The game should've been immediately forfeited.  Lambeth should've been immediately arrested.  Period-fucking-end.    
• Speaking of immediately arrested:  Kevin Porter Jr., soon-to-be formerly of the Houston Rockets, arraigned this week for breaking his girlfriend's back!!!
