Country Music is ALWAYS a Bad Idea

In the Tennessean,
Nashville Predator Jordin Tootoo may have just learned an important country music lesson: Never cheat on a woman with a microphone and an audience.
The Predators wild man had been dating singer Kellie Pickler since early this year, but apparently that’s on the rocks. “Jordin knows what he did,” she said Monday. Apparently her fans do, too.
While performing in Michigan on Sept. 22, concertgoers say, Kellie told the crowd that Jordin cheated on her, so her theme song now is Carrie Underwood’s “Before He Cheats.”
While she joked that she hoped his teeth were knocked out during that night’s game, her attempt to laugh through her pain didn’t last long: She cried onstage while singing “Didn’t You Know How Much I Loved You.”
Tootoo couldn’t be reached for comment… but Alanah could be: “Country Music ALWAYS Sucks.”
End of story.

Rar, Fire Bad, Country Music Make Georgeums Angry! Rar!
Seriously. Death metal is supposed to make people violent. Hip hop is supposed to make people angry. It’s country music that makes me twitch involuntarily…
Which might explain why Tootoo plays like a crazy man…
Stop the violence! Stop country music!

This is true...my parents had a golden retriever (and if you’ve had one, you know how sweet they are) who absolutely hated Faith Hill.
If the country music channel was on tv, he would start growling, and if Faith Hill was singing he would try to bite the screen as soon as the camera zoomed in on her face. The only other times he reacted like that was if a nature program was on, and it showed either squirrels or rabbits.
Country music. It even brings out the mean streak in a golden.

I’m sure it’s for the best. Her career would have tanked if she followed him to Kansas City, anyway.
