PANAMA CITY, Fla. -- A Florida sports fan has been sentenced to death for killing his wife after sex.
Christoper Offord got angry because his wife wanted to cuddle after they had sex -- but he wanted to watch sports on television. She died after being struck dozens of times with a claw hammer.
Offord later confessed to a bartender at a sports bar, and eventually pleaded guilty to first-degree murder.
In imposing the death sentence, the judge said the brutality of the crime outweighed any of the defendant's possible mental problems.
Offord did not speak in court, but admitted in a jailhouse interview that he deserved to die.

I totally feel people should get what they deserve - my question is, anyone that murders someone like this - are they not crazy?

Talk about yellow journalism...they didn't even mention that it was fourth-and-goal in the final two minutes with no timeouts remaining! An innocent woman is bludgeoned to death and this what you post.
Sad.

I was just thinkin'
Where this guy is goin' there is a lot of free CATV and no one wants to cuddle after they have sex.
Just his kind of place.

Here's why. Alan Dundes, folklorist at the University of California had this to say:
"The Super Bowl is an example of a thinly disguised symbolic homoerotic masturbatory phallic duel."

Anybody who knows me here knows I have a
very healthy sense of humor, however, unlike some people I know
when to use it.
THIS is NOT one of them.
To: Mad Mammoth
What the heck are you talking about.
Grow up.
To: Leapfrog
Yes. A terrible story. The evil scum perpetrator should be strangled to death.

Absolutely! I don't see where it makes a damned how crazy someone is. If they can't refrain from killing others we need to send them packing. Once the crime is committed the mental state of the criminal is irrelevant. It's kind of like someone saying, "the only reason the shark is attacking you is because it thinks you're a seal" while your guts are floating off. As if it matters why.

I am going to give the benefit of the doubt to the people making jokes about this.
I think some people can't handle real life horror and have to make jokes to cover up the way they really feel. At least that is what I hope is going on here.
It is nice to have a sense of humor but sometimes we go too far.
I am like the one poster I read that said he would give anything to have a woman by his side to share his life with and then you read about this pos killing his wife because he wanted "to watch sports?"What kind of sicko would do that, and what kind of sicko could makes jokes about it for real?
