Kruk is my hero

Surfing on ESPN Page 2, reading the random whims of some sports guys, came across this posting from John Kruk. I now have a new hero in life :

"ROMAN IS BURNING
Here is something that I still don't understand.


I was watching something from the 2003 Academy Awards the other day. Didn't seem like anything special. All those shows are the same.


Then Harrison Ford presents the award for Best Director. And the Oscar goes to ... Roman Polanski for "The Pianist."


The place errupts in applause and they give this guy a standing ovation. Now, this isn't a big deal in Hollywood. These guys use every opportunity to fawn all over each other. But this one was a little different. See, Roman couldn't make it. Back in 1977, he had sex with a 13-year-old girl at Jack Nicholson's house and, because he feared jail time, he fled the country.


We all know the story. If you don't, check out what The Smoking Gun has on this guy. He knows what he did and he should be in jail. The guy is a child molester.


Sorry you had to receive your award by FedEx, Roman.


That's not the point.


What the hell are all these Hollywood people doing cheering this guy on? I know these idiots have no sense of reality, but this guy is a special hero because he ran away from the law after abusing a little girl?


We all know that celebrities think they are above the law, but I didn't know that also meant you cheer known criminals because they're part of "the club."


I wonder when O.J. is going to get his standing O."

Bravo!!
My friend Kevin talks about this, with the same vigor, but you never hear the press, hollywood or anyone else for that manner speak up about it. Then here is Kruk, flowing about ole Roman and his molesting ways. He isnt gonna win a Pulitzer for it, but still, I was suprised to see it.
