Chalk it up

As this was the method of drawing up plays...via the chalkboard...with real chalk...now, it's the grease board...as the assistant, grabs the board and grease pen...hands it to the coach...this after a group huddle of the 7 assistants...well, 3 or 4...with the graduate assistants, standing in the back...you know, just in case someone is trying to film the huddle...the theory is that everyone cheats...in high school and college, the players pay attention to the coach...in the pro's, they look away...ha ha...such the life of a coach...

The Iowa/LSU gals game was the most watched EVER!...no kidding...intriguing line of hoops...with so much anticipation of whatever...snarly attitude towards one another...couldn't be further from the truth, as it turned out...terrific basketball, and a big fat 5 on the scale for team play...too bad it wasn't for the title...the games go on...

Friday the Final 4 for the ladies...NC State vs South Carolina...UConn vs Iowa...this is good stuff, kids...Saturday is the Final 4 for the guys...NC State vs Purdue...Alabama vs UConn...terrific...think about that...two universities in both of the Finals...split rallies and bands?...or, get on the plane and do them both?...gonna stick my neck out...here is my predictions...do NOT bet these...South Carolina, Iowa, NC State, and UConn...in that order...gals then guys...

Now on to the very interesting bond secured by trump...

The key to the money trail...starts with this guy, Don Hankey...who gave the $174 million bucks for the bond of trump...the retribution?...this is the thing...politics...what will he get in return for his money?...invested?...the word spread quickly all over the map...the guy is the founder of the Hankey Group...which makes most of his $ from car loans...very intriguing, is that he is a Cali guy...80 yrs of age...his pipeline?...he mortgaged the Trump Tower in NYC....and the Trump National Doral in Miami, as late as 2022...he also owns Knight Insurance Group...

He really likes the idea of calling his companies, Group...get this...his Westlake Financial Services...works with more than 30,000 car dealerships in ALL 50 STATES...to provide car loans to people with bad, or no, credit...is there such a thing as a monopoly on these types of loans?...not a bank, mind you...but a service...what we don't know about the inner workings of lending cash...

And this guy, just loaned out another...to trump...or is it a loan?...might it be something else?...a gift?...stay close to the money trail, kids...ha ha...when I wrote this, Google switched it to trial, instead of trail...I guess, it may be the same thing...just curious, but do you think that Westlake Financial Services might go as different names, too?...

Oooee...Westlake started their loans from guess where?...Puerto Rico...in collaboration with Axis Auto Finance...relatively new, 2019...in their heyday, had 40,000 deals in one month...there is more to the story, and if I am looking into it...imagine the news media...hang on to your shorts, children...

If this is a loan, what might be the collateral?...the Tower and Doral are already used...might this be Mara-lago?...and what else?...that is, if it is a loan...listen, if there is a trump default, than this whole empire could be then called...The Hankey Group...

I keep mentioning that the Friars are, well, in disarray...GM AJ has done this in the past off season...lost 3 SP's, the Closer, and LF and CF...replaced by rookies or journeymen...imagine...this could be the worst team here, in the 2 decades that we have lived in SoCal...wish I was wrong...last eve?...another loss...
