Padres

Remember when?  The closer was Trevor Hoffman...and in the latter part of his SD career, he lost most of his glamorous pitches...his fast ball was about the speed of his breakers...thus, he was pounded...alas, the Brewers liked what he still had, and signed him...and last season he had a resurgence...but this year, not so much...as age has finally caught up to him...he's like 40+...anyhoo, he actually got a close yesterday in St Louie....good on him, number 598...

The most non-talked about team in MLB...the San Diego Padres...won 9 of their last 10, leading the West by 6, the first NL team to win 70 games...and still...the major networks won't televise them...they will show the Dodgers and show the remorse of the demise of LA...horse crap...beat LA?  beaten down LA...ha ha...go for it, ESPN, go suck your Illinois eggs...

Ryan Mathews...the Bolt's running back...the real deal, kids....if you want a steal in your fantasy draft...get him...he's all purpose...I warned you...speaking of his college, Fresno St...they are joining the Mountain West, along with Nevada Reno...as...the BYU Mormons are seeking an independent way...at least in football...???  and why now?  Just seems strange to me...everything is BCS bull crap...I say, good riddance...by the way, the coaching staff at SDS is like all -stars...

That's it for this writer...Del Mar today or tomorrow...

The trump criminal trial is now set to go on Monday ...try as he may, he couldn't get it delayed...how many tries?...4?...it's a go, Bozo.. .and now, it is Perry Mason time ...does he have Perry?...I see he is without the lady attorney he had in his last court case ... a thought for us all...seems like whenever we are watching the 'famous people' in court, the prosecution has a tougher job ahead of them ...we shall see...and the item of 'odor' has emerged again...what the heck?... Bizarre outside the courthouse...a guy set himself on fire...he died ...the last time I can recall something like this... was in South Vietnam, with the Buddhist Monks doing the same, in the Vietnam War...egads ....we just don't value life enough... Congress...it's another odd session...with House Speaker Johnson (Mr Peepers) going against MAGA, and trying to get $ for Ukraine and Israel ...yes, MTG is not only fighting that, but attempting to get him fired from his job...why o...

Good morning all, from the great state of Oregon...this whole trip is about FRIENDS!...meeting up with peops we have been with over our years in the PNW...and for Boss's reunion....the opening act was a combo party of the two at this pad, a bar, called Johnny's...simply said, it was fun... The stories were there, the faces remained the same...and it tickled moi, that so many FRIENDS showed up...unfortunately, I did not get enough time to talk to all, please forgive me...when you go back some 60 years, my memory does fade a tad...well, and so does their's...ha ha...believe me, it was worth the trip... Boss was one of the belles of the ball...yes, she still looks great...you know that....well, the rest of her class did not know that, until last eve...she was flitting (flirting) about so...which made me smile...and that is only the beginning of it...the REAL reunion is tonight...one of my FRIENDS reminded me that is the gals reunion...which I think is most reunions...it is for...

When the thesaurus ran it's new version...it highlighted the word 'oration'...and there it was ... President Barack Obama...and then there is more..... see...Michelle Obama ...these two have the fundamental prowess of giving speeches...at the right time...at the right place... No better example of this, than last night at the DNC...each were marvelous...of course ...it's what people, special people, like these two...do...carry a message across the Nation...that we all can not only understand, but agree with... For seemingly years, the Horse has said...that if Michelle O wanted to be in the White House, AGAIN...this time as the President, and not the wife...she could ...however, for right now...she is supporting the right choice...for this time of the history of our country.... Tonight, we hear another exceptional orator...President Bill Clinton ...it's almost like taking a class in college...Speech 101...BTW, I was turrible at it...just in case you were wondering......
