Does the buck stop with Kanye? Who’s the next one to do something outrageously rude to capture the headlines? It’s already been a few days of civility. This is getting boring.  

Kanye stole the nasty prize from Serena who’d already swiped Joe Wilson off the front pages. Do you think that was the plan? Could it have gone something like this?

“Hey Serena, this is Joe Wilson. Listen, I know you have a big match coming up, but do you think there’s anything you can do to take the heat off me? I’m too busy here trying to kill bill to keep on apologizing.”

“Sure Joe, just leave everything to me.” And then …

“Kanye, hi it’s Serena. I need you to help me out. You’re so good at the awards show scene, can you maybe do a little something for me so I can get back to serving up winners? You know how I hate publicity.”

“No problem, Serena. I can feel your pain.”

But what does poor Kanye do now? Who does he get to call to bail him out? Who has even worse manners than he does with the ability to make front page news? These could be questions for the ages.

And what about the apologies? If Kanye wants to do a duet with Taylor, and Serena wants to hug that lines woman, maybe Joe can go to temple on Yom Kippur and spend the day fasting and atoning. Nah!
