The Big Dipper

Image
A 7' 1" giant of a man...lurved the nickname "the Big Dipper" ....cuz he had to duck to enter doorways.. .Wilt Chamberlain. ..is being brought up now due to the anniversary of his 100 point game...50 years ago...weird game as it was played in a small town in Pennsylvania...we are talking the NBA...as Philly was being used for a circus...ha ha...no video of the game...mostly just rep...and there was but a very small crowd, hardly a thousand...it was the sign of the times...he was a controversial guy...claimed to bed 20,000 women...now, that's a record...and never won a ring... As we brace ourselves for the "Super Tuesday" ...we can't stop trying to figure out the repubs...the way right is struggling so hard with Mitt...and turning towards Rickie....but the mainstream GOP can't handle his arrogance and ignorance...so, the states are divided...which hurts them if they think they can beat Prez O... I don't know if you do this...but... I p...

Let there be no doubt the difference with the Heat and the Blazers ... I still have the vision of the break that Miami had where 4, count 'em, 4 of PDX players watched...WATCHED...as the Heat ran a 4 on 1 surf ride to the bucket... not only embarrassing but disgusting...it is a sham that this team is doing now...yup, LBJ and Dwayne are great, but the effort of the Blazers is turrible ...2 ships passing in the night... Your Idol top 13 ...you agree?...I pretty much do...the two top guys are there, as well as the two top gurls...the sing off was cool, except letting the kids beg for mercy...didn't like or need that...the song of the night was Carrie's "I Know You Won't" , sung by the youngin'...tearful.... Florida swing for the PGA ....wooah, be for Tiger...still struggling...as the ancient one, Davis Love...the 3rd...is in control...geez, lots of water there...I can't imagine the score CH would have there...certainly would need a dozen balls... ...

I am talking Idol ...this time it was them gurls...and, like the day before...I just don't think there are any super special ones...it's going to be a wait and see...hopefully, they will improve and get better...so far...not so much...by the way, JLO is a GREAT JUDGE! Why do some primaries have to admit they were wrong on their tallies...change the results... . Michigan falls into line on this...so did Mitt or Rickie win?...I dunno... My Pacific Northwesters ...you have no school cuz of snow?....March 1!...wowser...well, it's cold here too...and snow up at Julian...2nd time in 2 weeks that school was closed there...it's all the way down to 56* here in the GQ...I have had me stocking cap on for the last 3 nights walking Sammi... The Monkees front man, Davy Jones , dies unexpectedly...66...or so...I was coming home from the golf course....heard the news...as I was listening to XM 6...Cousin Brucie...as he was doing a special tribute to Davy... I like Adele and...

So I was not blown away by the guys on Idol last night...unlike the judges...who thought that they were great...I will say there is diversity...but very average...no real turrible ones...that may have made it bearable...however, the clear favorite is Joshua Ledet...big pipes and seems so likeable... It's been awhile...but the GOP had its vote last night in Arizona and Michigan...with a bunch of the pundits predicting that Rickie would beat Mitt in Mitt's own state of Mich...here's the facts, mam...the more Santorum talks, the worse he gets...absolutely scary guy that has NO right being in the mix...but it is not over...Newt will get votes in the south to make this interesting...he is still my pick ...all I know is that it can't be Rickie....oh, by the way, Mitt won both primaries... So we have this goofy day that comes about once every four years...stick on an extra day in February...what?...how can this be?...how does this affect anything?...goofy, I tell you...c...

So how did the Oscars go for you?...did you think that Billy Crystal was a good replacement?...like he has done it 9 times...seemed classy to me...and kind of old school...which seems to fit... I am afraid to tell you that I have seen but a very few of the winners...we have "The Help" in the video drawer...just can't imagine "The Artist" as something we'd like....it's not on blu-ray yet...and them dresses...ha ha...the more cleavage the better...ha ha...where was Joan Rivers ....and missed the dictators scene with Ryan...what a fool...u pick 'em... The NBA All Star Game ...could only watch about a quarter and a half...dunk fest...and if anyone decided to try to play D...well, they are out of the club...let's see if they did what beisbol does, and the winner had the home court advantage in the finals...well...you'd see a totally different game... Finally worked out this am...geez, it's been about a month...really need it...I w...

Hey, you have your LSU, the OSU, the UO, the ND, or the UCLA...but do you know what the SU stands for?...sure, it's Shepherd University...the Rams...so how are they doing this season?...13-13...right in the middle...so similar to my golf game...I rarely win or lose...always in the middle...so now you know...it's a Div 2 school out of West Virginia...the only prob?...they spell the name wrong... Looking at the lines...something shocked me...the civil war hoop game between the Ducks and the Beavs...OSU is favored by 4...what?...I looked again to see if it was the gals...nope...what's wrong with that picture?...well... I must talk about the Aztecs...nobody...nobody...plays any harder than they do...it's a welcome relief to many of the teams that just go through the motions...without a doubt over achievers...did beat CSU last night and are back on top of the MWC...albeit tied with UNLV and UNM... This match play stuff in Arizona...Rory has certainly got a swagger...he...
