Prognostication and the Bolts


It's officially the time to figure out what is needed for the Chargers for next season. Not that the GM needs help, but...here goes. Let's start with what is needed the most the defense. The acting D coordinator is interviewing for the Lion's job. So if he goes...there is the 1st thing that is needed. Merriman will be back and that changes everything...The corners had a poor season, but apparently Cromartie had a busted hip. How'd he play through that? Better pass rush...need a minor face lift in the line. It would be nice to have a little more size in the backfield also.
Offensively we need a big back. Assuming LT does return...and Sproles is resigned...finding a big back is mandatory. Wow...the kicker and punter are awesome...not much needed huh...So the draft becomes huge and if they can fill the needs with their 1st 2 picks...fact is we are not that far away...I like the chances. Coaching? Norv is fine...not great. He is not imaginative enough for me, but certainly a quality guy and the team carries itself with class.
I am so excited about the way SDS's Hoke is putting together his coaching staff. The latest add is the QB coach, Brian Sipe, a former NFL guy. Next step is if they can recruit. I may be getting over there more often. See if you win they will come.
Wait...the American Idol season is upon us..."If ever I would leave you..." I guess I am too old.
The mighty Titans take on the hated Saxons tonight...
It's a heatwave and I'm hitting the links. Catch you on the 19th...

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
