Bye Bye Bell

It's fantasy baseball at it's best...or worst...the MLB's version of it...as they trade away contracts to others...for the right pick to enhance a key piece in the race to the end, dump a high money player, select a blue chip wannabee...it's what the GM's live and get paid for...and now, a bunch of these guys are play station GM's...young guys in their early 30's...OK, you can see I'm not a fan...let's get to the Padres...the rumors have been out there for a couple of weeks now...the same names...Bell, Adams, Ludwig, and Harang...it was said they were going to wait until the Pads were out of the race...duh...done there...they seem to want to stockpile the blue chip wannabees...the Rangers are looking at Bell hard...Ludwig maybe to an eastern team...I'm going to be real honest here...he's over the hill...so if the Pads get a six pack it's a good deal...if Bell goes, Adams must stay...or vice versa....and Harang, well...
and the Giants...picking up Beltran for a blue chip wannabee...that's how it's done kids...but they have a base to do so...

OK, Congress people, earn your keep and settle this debt ceiling stuff...NOW...

And the NFL is in fast forward and I gots to admit it is real fun to watch...the Bolts are standing pat...just why does anyone want a broken down QB from the skins?

No hitter by the Angel's Santana...dominating stuff...

Instant replay in baseball...do it...what century is that sport in?

You'll love this...the Pads 2B, Orlando Hudson, catches a pop up and tosses it out of play...problem is that there was less than 2 outs...and the opponent scores a gift run...says he just lost count...he dropped a pop up earlier...says he closed his mitt too soon...he told a writer it's a tough game, if it were easy the writer would be playing...I can't make this up...
And now you know...respect me 'cuz I'm a pro and you are not...

If the golf gods would put the flags in the bunkers, I'd be a putting for birdie most every hole...

So you want to bet the ponies...a fellar hit the pick 6...for $1.1 million!  After taxes he took home a whopping $900,000 check...at Del Mar...yesterday...I still haven't gone and I am itching...

And they're off...

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...
