What You Think


Well, those who know me knew this was going to come up...is it OK for teams and colleges to continue to use the Native American symbols as their name and mascot? As the Cleveland Indians (MLB) have used the "Indian" image since it's inception the argument of tradition is the ongoing reason...or the Washington Redskins (NFL) using the most descriptive of them all...or the North Dakota Fighting Sioux (NCAA) using the tribal symbol...or the Atlanta Braves (MLB) using the obvious...or the Florida St. Seminoles (NCAA)...well, here goes...being a Native American....my thoughts go to comparative representations of like...whites or blacks or Jews or Mormons or ...even worse...you wouldn't allow that so how is this allowed? In reality it probably was supposed to be a fighting nature of sorts...but you could make a case for a lot of garbage...so enough with the tradition crap and find another symbol that would be easier to swallow...get real people!

As I have been saying for over a year now...the GM of the Padres, Kevin Towers, has to go through a change in ownership and whether he weathers the storm is up in the air...my feeling is he did what was needed, but took him too long to make the adjustments...maybe with better direction he will thrive...

Remember, just remember...when the Dux got ripped by Boise and the TB popped the taunting Bronco? Sure you do...and Blount (the TB) got the boot for the season (sort of)...well, Orygun had him continue to practice throughout his suspended senior season...well...as I suggested...the rumor is he is coming out to play due to good behavior...

Be cool...

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.....

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...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
