CMAs: yep, they happened

I haven’t made much of the CMAs this year, because, eh, I really don’t care. It’s hard to muster excitement about the most predictable awards show on television, especially since you can just mine the old YouTube for performances the next day. (Actually, does the fact that it’s predictable make it more or less prestigious? Tough call.) If you want a play-by-play, consult the9513 or Country Universe.
