Bowl Games

First of all congrats to Duck's coach, Chip Kelly , for winning the Coach of the Year award...so deserving...
And also, kudos to SDS's coach, Brady Hoke, for a nice 8-4 season...and staying at the school after being courted around elsewhere....Michigan may be looming, so the Aztecs are not totally clear yet...
OK, college presidents (boo) you got your way again....your school got into a bowl game...to add $ to your coffin (?)...and, in the present system...your team just has to have 6 wins....and thus, 6 losses...the only thing more absurd, is like in Oregon, where everyone qualifies for the playoffs...wait, did I say playoffs?  Shame on me...
38 bowl games...including all star thingers...and guess what...how many 6-6 teams are in?  12...OMG...how crazy is that...obviously, a much better way to handle D-1 football, than have a playoff...where so many players would miss classes...because they are not now...my rant is over for now...
You know how I feel about awards for the gifted...they get voted on by some mucky mucks and then carry out the trophy...yea...but the Country folk have started a new one...totally voted on by the public...wait, does that work for DWTS?  Anyway, Carrie Underwood and Lady A, dominated...and in this blogger's eyes...rightfully...
Watched a show on NBC last night about singing groups...ala Glee types...no musical instruments used...cool stuff...check it out...hey, tonight is the Glee Xmas show...supposed to be great...
Just watch the climbs of SDS and UNLV in the hoop world...
Office party tonight...well Marsh's and I get (have) to go...
Cheers...

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...
