We had a hometown young man on got a golden ticket and was never showed one time. He has played and sung on the Grand Ole Opry before. He has talent. He just did not have a sob story to go with it. They did have some great singers but some bad ones too. Why do they not show them all. Just a few chosen ones that make a scene. Scour grapes here but he had the entire county watching for him. Won't be watching Idol anymore.
