If you would like to attend an awards show, which would you choose? Would it be The Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes, BAFTAs…? For me, it would be The ESPYs, which aired last night. It brings together the sports world and entertainment world, and you know how much I love sports. While they do awards like best team, they also do awards such as Perseverance Award, which Jim Abbott won last night. If you aren’t familiar with him, he is a former pitcher (baseball) who played in the major leagues with only one hand. One hand! He played for years, and was actually good! I love awards like those.
I’m guessing most of you wouldn’t go to any. Which would you choose, if you are one who would?

The only one I think I would like to attend is the American Music Awards of the Grammys and get to site between Rigo Starr and Mick Jagger

Honestly...no. I have never even thought of the idea of going to a big awards show. The idiotic fanfare of the Oscars, Emmy's and Golden Globes, etc. have turned me off from all of those type of shows. When I read of a music artist I enjoy getting an award I have watched that a time or two. Sports? If my kids or grands are playing, I'm there. I don't follow pro sports hardly ever. Just local sports and sometimes son and I will watch the Fighting Illini play basketball but not live.

I know many people watch them. I have heard that beauty pageants of all sorts are not nearly as popular as they used to be,either.

It would have to be a music awards show for me. CMA maybe?

No interest, I can watch them on TV. Were the ESPY's any good? I opted for a scripted drama.

I didn’t watch the whole thing, but I liked a lot of the winners like Alyssa Liu, the gold medal ice skater in the Olympics, and Fernando Mendoza of Indiana University. Then they honored this rescue swimmer which was really cool. The comedian host was pretty good too.
I’d never go to one because I wouldn’t fit in, but I’d love to see all those sports stars.
