Brad and Goliath

Every once in a while a great story comes out of the woodworks...a bloke who just seems too good to be true...like a Coach Kelly of the Ducks...and yet, is what he seems...well...there is such a fella in this smallish university in Indiana...at Butler...where his teams have repeatedly done the David and Goliath routine...huge underdogs, and beat the heavy favorite...a few years back he took the Bulldogs on a merry chase in the Big Dance...to the final game...and his personal stock went way up...could have had most any job out there...nope...he started there as a volunteer and worked his way up the ladder to be the boss...and likes where he is...WELL...he has done it again...everyone's number one, Indiana, came a prancing into hostile territory to play...Butler...and Coach Brad Stevens did it again...knocked off Goliath...just a great feel good story, unless you are a Hoosier fanatic...maybe, the best team in the land is in Indiana...

Staying in the hoops field...the Clips keep a marching on...this time unloading on the Bucks in Milwaukee...their 9th straight win...the scribes would rather write about the demise of the Lake Show, than the emergence of the spectacular Clippers...AND...SDSU beat cross town rival USD yet again...let me tell you this...the Aztecs are just starting to gel...

The bowl season has begun...and the Arizona/Nevada one was a kick...as the Pac 12 team scored twice in the last minute to shock the Wolf Pack...like 49-48, I think...

OK, I can tell you the more I see about the Connecticut Massacre, the more sad I get...it has got me to the core...and, if I hear one more NRA rep try to tell us that it's not the gun....well...you know...people, let's all band together on this...let's get the semi-automatic rifles out of the public's possession...please...

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...
