Scandal!

My wife and I had a wonderful ride together the other day. The downside to dressing one's wife well is the criticism one will receive if not dressed in proper mode yourself. My wife was critical of my red Badgers sweatshirt, mustard sweat pants (it was cold out) and my blue biking shoes. She said I wasn't color coordinated and seemed embarrassed to ride with me, often lagging far behind. She called it 'Chinese fashion.' When we watch the Korean dramas she loves so much she says the same thing when she doesn't like what the woman (or men) are wearing. 'Chinese fashion.'

But the fashion sense of the producers of America's clothing isn't the scandal I want to talk about.

I was impressed with the WORS movie embedded below. I was surprised so much was done in such a short time, and done very well. Obviously the producer worked very hard. Which just magnifies the pain I felt when I realized the unimaginable. That at least one of the video clips in the WORS '2008' movie was actually from 2007.

But I blame myself. The second half of the movie actually lulls in video clips, an obvious step down from the excitement of the first half. Video had to be supplied from somewhere (my 2007 clip pulled from you/tube). If I had just been able to make more of the races. Taken more video clips. Clips that far exceed the quality of what others provide. This tarnishing of an impeccable organization could have been avoided.

Unfortunately, as the poorest of WORS competitors, I wasn't able to go to more races or buy a new camera when mine was smashed and rendered into utter brokenness. But there is something you can do. Something you all can do. Send me money. Money so I can buy a proper camera and take pictures and video deserving of all your athletic prowess.

You drop your jaw. Murmuring over feigned laughter in disbelief. Yes, I myself could never have imagined that such a scandal could strike WORS. But you don't have to let this happen again. Give! Give me your money! 'Spread the wealth' that such a tragedy never need be repeated.
