Earlier this week, I wrote about my admiration for NFL Referee Ed Hochuli. After realizing that he made an incorrect call that cost the San Diego Chargers a win over rival Denver, the veteran referee acknowledged his mistake to the crowd and those watching on television.

Remember the criticism those on the right leveled at Barak Obama when he addressed thousands of screaming Europeans in Berlin? Likewise as he accepted his party's nomination in front of a massive crowd at Invesco Field in Denver? They're engaging in "celebrity worship" was the cry. The McCain campaign even produced a commercial to that effect, complete with not-so-subtle references to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton.
I've heard more than one person say over the last couple of days they've been tempted to throw their shoe or any other hard object they can find through their TV sets. Folks are genuinely upset with the mainstream media's treatment of John McCain's running mate, Sarah Palin.
