SNIPPET OF THE DAY – AT 9:56 A.M. ET:

From the New York Post:  Christina Aguilera has been invited to sing a do-over.  The Brooklyn Cyclones are offering the Staten Island native a chance to perform “The Star-Spangled Banner” before one of the minor league baseball team’s home games this summer.  Aguilera botched one of the lines of the national anthem before Sunday’s Super Bowl in Arlington, Texas.  The Mets’ Class A farm team extended the invitation Tuesday.

Given her rendition, the minor leagues are just about right.  Not only did she botch a line, she botched the entire melody.  It's our national anthem, not a pop tune.
