Round 1....Da Bums

The bloody Dodgers got game one...a 2-0 pitcher dominated (surprise) yawner at Petco...
Mgr. Torre outdid Mgr. Black in the crucial scoring zone for LA...as da Bums had 2 guys on, the Pads elected to walk the 8th batter to get to the pitcher...Torre pinch hit for his starter...a lefty hitter in Ethier...so what does Black do?...nothing...he has lefty killer Gaslamp Thatcher warming up...Ethier gets a 2 run hit...Black then comes out and brings Thatcher in...to face switch hitter Furcal...bah humbug...
The lazy play of the Pads star, Adrian Gonzalez.....he is too nonchalant in these big games...jogs on ground balls, swings at bad pitches, chokes on defensive plays...probably his biggest error, was his possible score from 3rd on THE PLAY of the game for the Pads...instead of hook sliding at the plate on an errant throw from the 2nd baseman...he lazily slides straight into the tag....the only way he would be out...9 out of 10 big leaguers would have scored on that play...I'm just being real...Mgr. Black needs to do his thing here...
Two guys should not be in the lineup much...Tony Gwynn and horrible Matt Stairs, who's last 10 at bats have been either strike outs or feeble hits to the pitcher...get your youth out there Buddy...
So, I'm not too happy with our guidance right now...I just want flat out hustle and proper managing...is that too much to ask?
Make your adjustments and get round 2...

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...
