No Mo TomKat

And they thought it would last forever... the marriage of Tommy Cruise and Kate Holmes ... NOBODY is talking about the Scientology part of it...my sources say it's at the root of it...ha ha, TMZ...where else would I read crap about it? The heat wave back east is now affecting the PGA thinger in Washington , or close to it...no fans allowed today...what?...Tiger must love that...or will he?...he does thrive on the wave of emotion, yet, he won't acknowledge any of the fans...odd, huh... Hot rumor is that the Pads are close to moving 3B Headley to the Dodgers...and they, finally, sent C Hundley to the minors...after struggling to a .166 batting average...it's been a month late in my book...and bringing up a much heralded young prospect catcher...might be permanent...it's a brutal game... Lamar K is moving back to LA, albeit to the Clippers...does he still have it?...hope so, but their problems are on the D end of it all...not sure he helps in that aspect...staying...

Fallout

And the GOP has hit the road running...if they get their guy in, he'll go above the Supreme Court and squash the "Obama Care"...there you go, you have your debate topic...didn't Mitt try this health reform when he was the guv?...oh well, here it goes... The Blazers drafted for their PG concerns...I am all for it...but the bloke from Weber St?...oh well, let's see what he's got...and another center...OK, let's now get a coach and get it on... Apparently nobody wanted the Laker's Gosol...man, I'd a taken him in a blink of an eye...he can play...the others are just maybe's....I'm just saying... When the O'Malley's owned the Dodgers they were the class of the league...they sold it to a conglomerate, and LA hasn't been the same since...a lot of anticipation that they are going back to their roots and start up the Pads with their old enthusiasm...hope hope... 2 weeks til Del Mar opens...I'll go the opening week, but not op...

Obama Care

Talk about a misnomer... the Supreme Court ...you don't know where I'm going with this...voted to keep the infamous "Obama Care" ...it leaves me, speechless...well, not really...I was surprised...there are so many unanswered questions in this bill...but, I guess they felt that every single one of us Americans have the right to have health insurance...and it makes the big biz companies squirm...and yet, each state has the right to alter it?....so confusing...this is chapter 1.... You who think that the Housewives of wherever is a big waste...you are probably right...but we are glued to the tube...and there isn't much on...and the spectacle of the goof balls is too much to pass on...I keep thinking, do they actually watch themselves and like what they see?...wow... If you think that the BCS solved their money grabbing title fiasco...you are wrong...as they added two teams to the mix...and why not add six?...I still find it unbelievable that the "elite...

BSBCS

You know my feelings about the collegiate football championship ...D-1 type...the only system in place that does not have a true playoff...well now...the college prezzes (the elite 12) have accepted a 4 team playoff!...starts in '14...good for 12 years...let's see, that would make me 78...don't like the sound of that... WELL ...it's a bit of a good thing...really, it should be 8...and the provision that says that the champ game host, is dependent on the high bidder...well, Dallas's Jones, has it all but wrapped up...forever...OK, it's a step in the right direction ...but, why will it takes two seasons to put it in place?...bloody bowl games, I reckon... Here's my take on the Supreme Court and the Arizona immigration law ...the one part that seemed unconstitutional to me, was the one part they upheld...the "looks like an illegal" one...if this is true, why then couldn't the authorities adopt that for the "you know whos" at the airpo...

Summer of '12

Not the summer of George ...get this story...and it's all true... The Yankees and Mets are the rivalry of New York...you are one of the two...there is this little known reliever of the Mets, Frank Francisco ...who in his own way of firing up his fans, called the Yankees "chickens" ...unbeknownst to him, a fellow player pranked him...and he thought that the Yanks sent over a chicken to him...and they named it "Little Jerry Seinfeld" ...by the way, he got a save...and the chicken got it's reprieve, and was sent to the Farm Sanctuary...temporary at best, I'm sure... The dismantling of the Bosox has begun...as I alluded to yesterday, Kevin Youklis , was to be traded...in the middle of the game!...got his walking papers and was dealt to the White Sox ...geez, Crazy Horse was right on...as he will fill the void at 3b...and out goes ODog ... Crazy finish to the Travelers in Connecticut. ..as SD native, Chas Hoffman , blew the lead and tourney wi...

On The Other Side

Image
As I have read back a bit, I have sensed a little negative writing on my part. ..what?...calling out the inadequacies of various sporting teams that I follow....dang it all...mostly the Padres ...anyway...I have decided to go to the other side...well, for just a few sentences... In a few months we are going on our annual jaunt over to the greatest island ever, Maui ...I'm the type of guy that repeats the good stuff...and this is that...we stay at the Kaanapali Shores ...just north or east of the Embassy Suites ...and it is awesome...two pools and the timing is near perfect...school just starts up....you know what I mean...snorkel, play golf, sunbathe, eat, and drink...can hardly wait...and I lurve the excursion to Lahaina ...always 82*... OK, that's it for the good stuff ...you know there is this storm brewing over in Boston... the Bosox went and hired this fiery manager, Bobby Valentine ...and they started right off.. .LOSING. ..not a good thing there...well, anywhere,...
