Cook wins American Idol, gotta love the remote
I’m a big, big Lakers fan. Lakers are playing the Spurs tonight, Game 1 of the NBA Western Conference playoffs.
The clock reads just before 9 pm, and that means it’s time for Ryan Seacrest and the gang to reveal who wins American Idol. Oklahomans halfway care because David Cook – who claims Missouri as home, or at least the show does – has played many gigs and served many drinks in the Tulsa area. And for my two cents, he has done a great job when I’ve caught his performances on AI this season. Not that I watch it much. But he’s got great talent.
So here’s the remote, cue the judges, Randy, Paula and Simon… and the right David wins. Cook beats David Archuleta by over 10 million votes.
Back to the hardwood.
