What Money Crunch?


So Kentucky hoops team isn't winning enough after 2 seasons with their coach...they fire him because he apparently doesn't work hard enough(?)...they then hire John Calipari out of Memphis for, get this, $35 mill for 8 seasons! So you send your kid to Kentucky and are upset that they up the tuition to $42 grand a year...then they do this... First of all, what D-1 coach lasts 8 seasons at one school? Secondly, how does anyone justify that type of $? Thirdly, just what is the cost per win? Think about that. Go to your favorite school and figure out what the cost per win is...
The Padres just signed a package deal of Justin Verlander, Miguel Cabrera, and Gary Sheffield from Detroit. It is the 1st move of John Moorad and puts Kooz and Giles on the block. Due to the $ crunch it will benefit the club immediately...April Fool
Well on the real side of things, Borders is off 54%, Phoenix housing is down 35%, GM and Ford are on all-time lows, all of LV is way down, ...yet when we go to the malls they are crowded...
Now in England the G-20 Conference meets to figure out how to save the planet monetarily...there are huge riots to show that the capitalists are the reason for the season...Our president is making an appearance to see what he can do...and what is our news service saying? How Michelle's arms are so buff...
Which brings me back to Colorado and the patsies Broncos...they now want to peddle their QB Cutler...any takers?
I am afraid to tell you but the rocker Adam is a lock for the new American Idol...
Enjoy the sun...

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...
