Giants

Holding serve...as the SF Giants win both of their home games...albeit that most of the scribes gave Madison Baumgartner little chance of pitching well...as he was AWOL prior to last night...momentum...that's what SF has...and even when the Tigers are pitching well, the Giants found a way to scratch out a 2-0 win and go up 2-0...now, to Detroit, and some nasty weather...c'mon, Tiger hitters, show up and make the Series a good one... Nice little article in SI about the new PG from the Blazers ...how he learned the "pick and roll offense" from one of his coaches at Weber St ... Damian Lillard ...and became a must have for the NBA...ha ha...they were saying that there are like 10-15 nuances to the O...and, now Damian has them in his repertoire...I hate the way the game has gone...two on two and everybody else clears out of the way, and hopes that they get the ball to spot up...boooo...gone is the movement of all 5 players...it's a boring way to play...shoot...

SF Nails Numero Uno

Historical bopping in game one of the series... Pablo Sandoval , 3B of the Giants, hit 3 dingers and led them to the stomp...over the Tiger's superb, AL's best, Justin Verlander...and Pablo joined the likes of Reggie and the Babe in such a feat...amazing...hey, it surprised me, as I have Detroit in 5 or 6...never, ever, bet on professional sports... Speaking of Halloween, is there a more creepy guy than the Donald? The sound system is complete and way cool... Shot an 84 yesterday, and resembled a golfer...43-41, if you are counting... Santa Ana's hitting our area...which means high winds coming from the east...Red Flag Warning... Survivor is still a great show... Much to the dismay of all us horse racing fans, Chantel has retired... My CH poll has the Prez up by 6 points...with a plus or minus of 3... UNLV here on Saturday against the Aztecs... The Lake Show tonight at the Sports Arena...pre-season farce... Another hurricane heading toward Florida... T...

Dominates

If you are a die hard Repub , you should quit reading right now...as Prez O dominated the 3rd and final debate...carefully telling the public, the who, what, and why that has been going on in our foreign policy... and Mitt had very little to add ...in fact, at times, seemed so unprepared that it was scary to think he may have the reins... AND ...I'm not saying he will lose, just lost the debate... BADLY! ...I have already voted and my thoughts were justified last night... get out and vote, people... Going on at the same time was the game seven of the SF/St L series ...and, like Crazy Horze predicted, the Giants walloped the Cards...and off they go to the World Series...2nd time in the last 3 seasons...c'mon Pads, we have to get our act together... AND ...I have also said, that the Tigers are favored...in 5 or 6 games...really... DWTS ...did you watch?...how on earth did Kirstie get higher marks than the soap opera queen?...holy moly, and you thought that the Russian ju...

No Touchdown

Image
Or not?...when is a touchdown not a touchdown?...crazy interpretation of the rules...yesterday... Tampa Bay versus New Orleans ...TB down seven at the end of the fray...inside the ten going in...4th down... QB Freeman avoids the rush, spins, and tosses the ball to Mike Williams for the potential tieing score (will need the extra point)...wooah... NOT A TD! ...the defender of Williams shoved him out of the end zone...and Williams came back in...established himself back in the field of play...caught the pass... BUT ...the rule is...if the QB goes out of the pocket...then the defender can do what happened...and the receiver is no longer a viable target... WHAT? ...here's my interpretation...there's NO WAY the defender or official knew when or where the QB was... AND ...it should have been illegal touching on the defender, outside of 5 yards of the line of scrimmage...boooooooooooooooooooo....obviously, Williams is on my league leading fantasy football team, the mighty Gas...

Well...she just gets better!  Carrie Underwood ...it's the 4th time we have seen her in concert...really looks like she is having fun...and her sets are amazing ...and her floating stage was spectacular...my fav of the evening?... You Won't Call ...preceded her final song of Blown Away ...I don't know how she doesn't lose her voice...she gives it her all, kids...4 stars... The top teams in the D-1 football separated themselves from the pack this week...all but your fav, Notre Dame , who eked by BYU, at home...well, they are at Oklahoma next week...we'll see then... Alabama , Oregon , Florida , and Kansas St ...who by the way, stomped West Virginia...and the next level...Oklahoma, Ohio St (who survived yet again), LSU, Oregon St...hung on...and yup, I said the Beavs by 14...and they won by that amount...trust Crazy Horze ... I have already sent my ballot in...so can we stop trying to bombard me with propaganda please!...the mayor's race here in SD has tur...
