CRAZY HORSE

I find that the sublime becomes the ridiculous in the every day game of major league baseball...it's a grinding, laborious type of play....and as the season wears on, the unexpected happens...good and bad...BUT...it has already hit the shores of San Diego...the totally inept play and demeanor of this big league club is deplorable... The first away game of the young season is upon us...albeit, two hours away at Chavez Ravine...make that 3...and the Pads are facing one of the guys that they already have beaten...out of two...a former team mate from last year...Aaron Harang...he who may throw 88 on the gun...so, highly hittable....so a very good chance for win number three, right? Let's just say the mighty Pads were pathetic...struck out....9 TIMES IN A ROW...KKKKKKKKKK...on their way to 18 for the game....and of course, booted the ball around to give the Dodgers enough lee way to score the win...and, like I said yesterday, another dropped ball in RF, was called a base hit... ...

If you are not a baseball junkie you are not going to like this article....it's about the benign duty of an official scorekeeper in Major League Baseball...hey, it's not like the guy or gal who keeps the little league books...or the coach who has it on his ipad looking gizmo in the 3rd base box...or the wife of the coach who has the unbelievable knowledge of a backward K...or the sports beat writer of the local newspaper...but... it used to be...prior to 1980...each big league town had their own guy who served in that capacity...which led to very favorable decisions that affected the holy grail in this grand sport....the records...this game of baseball is all about records...due to it's pace of play, the commentary of the who, what, when, and where has always been the rage...in fact, if you have never listened to the legendary Vin Scully of the LA Dodgers, you are missing the encyclopedia of the history of the game...each and every broadcast...and he has no expert guy si...

It was a dynamite show...this original idol winner... Kelly Clarkson ...ten years ago...really?...it did not have all the glamor as most do...video screens and crazy big stage...more raw...more rock and roll...and that is what she is...and she talked way more than any performer that I have EVER seen..which was way cool...I really like her cover of Carrie's "I know you won't"...different, but NOBODY is better than Ms. U.... So Rickie bows out...pretty much leaves the GOP with Mitt ...not so fast...Newt is still in it...confusing...but now think that the Repubs will go ahead with Romney ...it is a long, uphill battle...crazy article about Rickie's wife in Newsweek...if you are interested, take a look at it online...bizarre if true... So the owner of the club confronts you about your lack of effort....AT HALF TIME...and you hesitate to the question of commitment...wrong answer Lamar ...not only are you done for a bit...but for a long while...dumb, dumb move......

Let's see...you open a new stadium in the Cuban area of town...to get more people to come to the games...spend a lot of dough bringing in new players...get yourself a bang up manager...open the season at home...what could go wrong?...gulp...you start by losing badly...then your manager starts popping off...declaring his admiration for...FIDEL CASTRO!...oops, the community is filled with Cuban defectors...who absolutely hate the man...well...what?...Ozzie Guillen is not the sharpest tool in the shed...and just may be out of a job soon...the Wizard of Oz... DWTS...the judges were cranky last night...but...did not understand the high marks for Cheryl...they goofed a bunch of times...weird...sure seems like a lot of drama for the "stars"... We are hitting the Kelly Clarkson concert tonight...mosh pit...really have Marsh scared...it's at the Sports Arena...the seats there are great...and indoors...by the way, it costs $20 to park...what? I'm off to Sycuan...sup...

Who would have thunk that the Red Sox , Yankees , and the Giants would start 0-3!...and we are worried about our Pads...but we are...let's be frank... SD needs to bring up the youngins at 2b and SS and live with it...the vets are way over the hill...day off...and then we have a 3 game home stand...and, oh by the way, Mosely will be shut down for at least a month...OK, it's a good thing...just in case you were wondering... The Lamar Kardashian trip in Dallas is over...the Mavs are letting him go...as may Khloe...hey, it's a brutal K world...and if you don't perform up to their standards, they let you go, too...I'm not sure which one is more difficult... For all of us wayward type drivers of the ball, we embrace Bubba as our golf god...as he is now the impetus to hit the home run, when it is probably the least of all good choices... The weather is so darn good, that we are going to load up the bikes and hit the beach...yup, that nice... The NFL decline...

Finally, the big bomber got a major...he never has had a lesson...plays the game by feel...frustrates the "experts" of the game...and the Masters set up well for his game...it needed a long ball hitter...and with touch...yup, it was earned by Bubba Watson ...went to OT...and he pulled out a miraculous shot from nowhere and got the V... Break up the Padres...they finally got a win...well, after getting whomped 3 straight by da bums...it took a brilliant pitching effort by Clayton Richards and Chase Headley, finally getting his first hit, a grand slam...go figure... I have to say that Santa Barbara is absolutely beautiful...and State St. seems very comparable to 5th in the GQ... Donnie's Apprentice is this eve...the big question is, is Big Red still in it?...took to the streets due to Arsenio's rant... And the Amazing Race...geez, I am not fond of the Big Bros. couple... Hope you had a fine Easter Sunday...
