Rose Bowl

With the easy win over the Beavers, the Ducks set their sight on the Pac-12 Champ game...1st time it has been used....why?  Well... the Trojans are being penalized this year, so the next team in line in the south gets the game...the woeful Bruins are in...who just got run over by USC yesterday...and with a win, it appears that the Rose Bowl is the destination of the Duckees...with any good fortune, the Wisconsin Badgers are the opponents...kind of have to wait for the BSBCS to do it's thing...boo...

83* in Sycuan yesterday...no wind and it was sublime...it seems like most of the blokes there have their own allegiances...USC is the dominant one...nobody is a Bruin....oh, by the way, I crafted out an 86...took the Ping irons out of the storage area and they are a step up from what I was using...yeh...

Wow!  What a win for the UNLV hoops...knocking off North Carolina...as the Rebs are going uptempo...it seemed like the Tar Heels were not ready for them...regardless, it was great fun to watch...and, if you are in Vegas, it will be a tough ticket to get...really...

GOP...it is Newt coming through...I keep telling you the repubs won't elect Mitt...and...I watched the latest debate all the way...and I think they are bright and intelligent peops...well, all but one female... and he got the New Hampshire nod...

The NBA...it is a done deal...and the revenue share is about 50-50...roughly...and the group must realize the money is barely there...of course, the players and owners have yet endorsed the 10 year compromise...ten years!  In this economy?...what's wrong with this pix?....boo...

What a week for the stock market...it was a huge downer and I still have no clue why...is it dependent on Europe?...the bloody Euro is floundering, thus the dollar should, too?  boo...

Are you excited?  The marvelous and highly spiritually Timmy Tebow led Broncos invade the Q against the Bolts for a must win for both teams...with the Denver's most boooring O in the history of the NFL and the ineptly coached Chargers, it is an absolutely must miss game...we will get out to the beach and forego any chance of turning on the game...boo...

The Pick Six was hit for a mere $49,500 at Hollywood Park...just figured you need some motivation to get out to the ponies...

And just when you couldn't get more excited for the upcoming bowl season...the Poinsettia Bowl (held here) just got their first combatant...Louisiana Tech...yup, it's true...where do I get the tix?...what is their mascot, anyway...


The Odd Board...you do know the line on the Duck/Beaver game was 27 1/2, right?...with their starters resting the entire 4th Q, the Duckees held on to win the wager...by a half of a point...what?...odd and weird, huh...

Maybe a bike ride...so many choices....

"Ward, don't you think you were a little rough on the Beav?" Re. your text yesterday about Riley, I have to agree that OSU is a disaster. Lots of problems here. 1. is no athletes. Their recent recruiting has fallen way off. The offensive line is terrible. No LB's and really the whole def. is bad. No. 2 is Money. Reser did a good job of donating but not enough to keep up with Phil. No. 3 is probably coaching. Ther isn't a more personable and genuine guy than Riley. That isn't winning games. The Beaver faithful doesn't seem motivated to fire him. Its like they would rather blame the Ducks than look within.Most Beavs I know absolutely hate the Ducks but the Ducks are just dismissive of the Beavs. This goes as far back as I can remember.
I think this Duck team has problems too. They should beat UCLA but I'm not sure about the Rose Bowl. We still have some huge weaknesses. Oh the weather at the game yesterday was great!

Do NOT DEFEND the Beav...it is a mess...according to the peops around here, much like how he left the Bolts...in shambles...a new direction is needed in Corvallis...
By the way, the Ducks did a great job after destroying their season in Dallas...USC beat up Oregon and showed they really are a force for next season...
The Pac 12 alignment is a joke...what latitude are they using?

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...
