Welcom to the Bigs

I bet you don't know this Padre...it's the new CF...Cam Maybin...who resurrected SD from an opening day loss at Saint Louie, with 2 outs in the 9th...with an awesome HR to deep center...tying up the game and then getting the winning hit in the eleventh...as the pitching staff had a gem and preserved the 5-3 WIN! Hey, I told you it would take 5 runs to get it...

NBA beat...the Lakers destroyed the Mavs in LA...the lowlight was the ejection of a number of players due to a throw down of Blake by Dallas's Terry...enter the all time jerk of Matt Barnes, and the shoving match got embarrassing...of course the refs were trying to control the sit, but your boy, Joey Crawford threw a shove himself...he's a beaut...like in hockey, the stars were on the outer edges...

College Hoops...SDS's Steve Fisher won the Rupp Coach of the Year Award...nice, as he deserved it...so says me...by the way, the semi's are tomorrow...WIDE OPEN...

OK, OK, I am definitely country conscious...but the duet of Scotty and Lauren of Carrie's "I told you so" was wunnerful....on Idol...the gals that got booted last night...yea, probably the right choices...

The hottest day of the year, and yours truly is sickly...still got to swim in the pool and lay in the sun...but faded fast and was bed ridden from there on...

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...
