This season’s All-Stars have been selected and based on the results, people aren’t happy with some of the players that were voted for. One of people being head coach of the Golden State Warriors and the head coach for the West All-Stars this year Steve Kerr, who voiced his problems with the voting on Monday.

“I am very disappointed in the players,” Kerr said. “They’ve asked for a vote and a lot of them just made a mockery of it.” 50 percent of the votes are from the fans, 25 percent are from the media, and 25 percent are from the players.

According to the Mercury News, players like Mo Williams and Ben Simmons were voted into the All-Star game despite not playing a single game this season. Also, Grizzlies’ guard Tony Allen voted for Luke Babbit and Michael Beasley. “I saw all the guys who got votes” Kerr said. “There were 50 guys on there who had no business being there…If you’re going to give the players a vote, they should take it seriously.” According to NBA Writer Alex Kennedy, 128 players didn’t vote for Cavaliers forward LeBron James and 154 players did not vote for Warriors forward Kevin Durant.

Kerr doesn’t know what the answer is to solve the problem with All-Star voting. “There’s always going to be worthy players left out of the starting lineup, left out of the roster entirely. It’s the same thing every year, and I don’t know what the perfect answer is.”

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
