LOS ANGELES - They serve fast food, but they're slow learners.
Four months after a Burger King employee lost his job for taking a bubble bath in a restaurant sink, three scantily clad teens were fired when they turned a basin at their northern California KFC into their personal hot tub.
They landed in hot water with the chicken chain's management when one of the bikini-clad dimwits made the same mistake as the Ohio Burger King employee - she posted photos of the dippy escapade on MySpace.
The photos included captions such as "haha KFC showers!" and "haha we turned
on the jets," and were filed under a gallery called "KFC moments," according to the Record Searchlight newspaper in Redding, Calif.
The story broke before the unidentified girl could scrub public access to her profile. On her MySpace page, the girl listed herself as a 17-year-old worker at the Anderson KFC near Redding.
"I'm a KFC worker, they are my best friends and my family," she said on her site.
The three were suspended Tuesday - and have since been fired, said KFC spokesman Rick Maynard.
"KFC has zero tolerance for violations of our operating standards, and our franchisee has taken immediate action by terminating the employees who were involved," said Maynard.
An assistant manager told the Record Searchlight that no manager was on duty when the steamy photos were likely taken and that the trio closed the restaurant themselves.
Burger King bagged 25-year-old Timothy Tackett in August after a four-minute video of his birthday bath in the sink of a Xenia, Ohio, restaurant landed on MySpace and YouTube.
Tackett appeared to be naked in the sink.
Burger King promised to work with the health department to retrain staffers in proper sanitation procedures.
After the 2001 baseball season, the New York Yankees were craving for a power hitter after their paltry performance against Arizona in the World Series...the Yankees wanted the best hitter on the free agent market and that was first baseman Jason Giambi - the Yankees got him and signed him to a seven year deal...
After the 2008 baseball season, the Yankees were craving for much needed starting pitching after not making the post-season in over a dozen years...the Yankees wanted the best starting pitcher on the free agent market and that was C.C. Sabathia - the Yankees got him and signed him to a seven year deal...
As a Yankees fan, I did not like the signing of Giambi because he was a one deminesional power hitter who could not run nor field...the seven years are now over for Giambi as a Yankee and I could safely say New York made a mistake by signing him...
Seven years after the signing of Giambi, I once again believe the Yankees made a big mistake by signing Sabathia...don't get me wrong, Sabathia is a very good pitcher...but he has three big flaws that concern me:
1. He is a hot head on the mound - I watched Sabathia numerous times when he pitched for the Indians...after giving up a key hit or homer, Sabathia gets rattled on the mound...once he gets rattled, he overthrows by barrelling the ball in at 100 mph which leads to another homerun...batters can get into Sabathia's head...
2. He is fat - let's be blunt - Sabathia is a fat, out-of-shape young man who is only going to get more fat as he ages over the next seven years...this weight can and usually leads to health problems (aka, going on the disabled list)...
3. October - the sole purpose for playing on the Yankees is to win in October...and when you are the highest paid pitcher ever, you must come across with a W in October...over the last two post-seasons with the Indians and Brewers, Sabathia has failed miserably in the post-season...
This past post-season, the Brewers found themselves down 1-0 in the NLDS at Philadelphia with Sabathia on the mound...this was a must win game for Milwaukee...Sabathia tanked it...he went 3.2 innings and gave up a crucial walk to Phillies pitcher Brett Myers with two outs in the second inning...the pitcher!!!...clearly flustered, Sabathia walked the next batter Jimmy Rollins to load up the bases...Shane Victorino then parked a grand slam that ended any chance of the Brewers to advance...
Flip back one year earlier when Sabathia pitched for the Indians...he beat the Yankees in Game 1 of the ALDS, but it was a poor effort...he went 5 innings and gave up 4 hits, 6 walks, 2 homers, and 3 earned runs...
In the ALCS against Boston, Sabathia was completely unreliable...in Game 1, he went 4.1 innings and gave up 7 hits, 3 walks, and 8 earned runs as he took the loss...
With the Indians up 3-1 in the series and at home, Sabathia took the mound in Game 5...a win would send the Indians to the World Series...he was the team's #1 pitcher, the horse, the ace - this was supposed to be money in the bank...Sabathia went 6 innings and gave up 10 hits, 2 walks, 1 homer, and 4 earned runs...he lost again...
Those post-season performances alone would be why I would not have given Sabathia a seven year contract worth $160 million...he is not a big game pitcher...I see Sabathia being a player who has overbloated regular season stats who cannot perform on the biggest stage in October...the Yankees made a mistake...
Most college football fans are disgusted with the BCS and would rather see a playoff...realistically that is not going to happen because of money, the bowls, and college presidents...
So, since the BCS is going to stay, it would be nice if we had the 10 best teams play in the BCS instead of having an automatic bid if you are conference champion...for instance, this year, the Big East and ACC conference champs, Cincinnati and Virginia Tech, do not belong in these elite bowls...
On Saturday, ABC Sports Craig James was correct in saying that the top 10 ten BCS teams should make the bowls...even if it means that 3 teams from a conference may get in and some conferences may not have a conference champion who is worthy...he went on to say, that all the major confernces would still share in the money even if a conference does not get a representative in the BCS...this would set a standard instead of allowing teams with 3 or 4 losses to get into one of these primetime games...
If the BCS was done correctly, here should be the match-ups...
BCS Title Game
Florida vs. Oklahoma
Rose Bowl
Southern Cal vs. Penn State - this match-up is really going to happen...
Fiesta Bowl
Texas vs. Texas Tech - the nation would love to see a rematch since the last game was decided on the last play...heck, why not start where the last game was left off...
Sugar Bowl
Alabama vs. Utah - this match-up is really going to happen...
Orange Bowl
Ohio State vs. Boise State - how can a team go 12-0 and be in the Top 10 of the BCS and not make a BCS bowl?????....
Before there ever was 9/11, December 7, 1941 was the most horrific day in American history when Japan surprise attacked Pearl Harbor...the attack sank four U.S. Navy battleships (two of which were raised and returned to service late in the war) and damaged four more...also sank or damaged were three cruisers, three destroyers, and one minelayer along with 188 aircraft...this attack caused personnel losses of 2,402 killed and 1,282 wounded...
Let us not forget...
