2010 Grammy Awards, you are going to be pathetic.

In my opinion, the Grammys have been on a downward spiral over the last few years. But 2009's award show held high hopes. Remember when MIA showed up and performed while she was nine months pregnant? And most of the nominees were easy to swallow.

Not so much this year.

It seems the Black Eyed Peas have sold their souls to the devil, because that's the only possible explanation I could come up with for their large number of nominations, which include Record of the Year and Album of the Year.

I hate you, Black Eyed Peas!

The entire list, which you can read here, is sad, and makes me vomit a little in my mouth. I tried to find some bright spots in obscure categories, but all I did was run into a song from the Hannah Montana movie nominated for Best Song Written for Motion Picture.

Kill me now.

At least 2009's list had a Kansas link. Brazilian Girls were up for Best Dance Album, and the drummer is from Topeka!

But this latest list, nada.

Alas! A hilarious bright spot! I've found it!

You will never believe what song is up for a Grammy. "I'm on a Boat!"

Yes, a sketch from SNL is up for a Grammy. It's up for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration. On the one hand, all those bits from The Lonely Island are stellar. So I'm going to root for them to win out of sheer amusement.

The rest of the nominees? Ah, forget it. I'd rather stick in "Sister Act II" and watch that instead of the awards show next year.
