T-R-O-U=B-L-E

Don't look now, but the mighty Ducks of Eugene Oregon...are on the hot seat by the NCAA...recruiting violations...for like 4 years...and they call it preliminary...but have released some of what they have found...it's in the early stages...stay tuned...some of the penalties even include firing of Coach Chip...eegads....stop the insanity...have to think all of them Beaver believers are rejoicing...

Jeremy Lin...another look...watched what the Heat did to him...put big time pressure on him...and he looked lost...slow and methodical...and very vulnerable...maybe, he's just tired from all the hoopla...I mean he came from nowhere and now is putting up big minutes...the jury is out...

The Rookie/Frosh NBA All Star Game...in Orlando...a dunk fest...and kind of a joke...but...a couple of things....the Wall guy can PLAY....and if Ricky Rubio was in NYC or LA he would be the rave...watch out for the Lakers trying to get him in a trade before the March 15 deadline...they are only missing a PG...

The over under line for the number of wins for the upcoming season for the Padres is 70.5...what?...eleven games behind the owner less Dodgers...seems to me...a C note is in order in Vegas on this stat...oh, they'll win more...

The stock market...S & P's the highest since 08....the Dow resting at the 13,000 level...what gives here?

Off to Sycuan for a round of golf...enjoy your weekend...

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...
