Smack

Talk, Smack Talk...you know what that is, right?...when somebody does it to get under your skin...it's what happened this am when the Trib's new sports guy, Matt Calkins, wrote in his article about the Tiger win out at Torrey Pines...the gist was to say it wasn't a major, so what the heck...what?...it is so hard to win out there...Calkins is going about this in a selfish way...he wants a name for himself...so he'll be a bad boy, and be controversial...belittle the title that Woods won...doesn't sit well with me...this is not the first of such articles he's done...the jury is out, yet leaning towards jerkism...

Oh, by the way...Tiger won by 4 shots...he stumbled in and wasted 3 or 4 shots with errant tee balls...ha ha...welcome to my world...I guess that's why it is 72 holes...he needed the buffer just in case...what about Lefty?...floundered about...no tax prob there...Rickie (don't call me Rick) had a great last 3 rounds and finished at 8 under...

The tour takes off to Arizona for the Waste Management Open...what?...is this funded by the Sopranos?...the wild part of this one is the par 3 that is like in an arena...plenty of bubbly flowing and raucous behavior...not really golf...but works here somehow...many of the blokes pass this one by...I can't imagine me teeing off there...

Finally, the Sooper Bowl comes into focus...as it is this Sunday...Harbowl...I'm pulling for Jim H...well, I have $ on them...and if they do it, it will be the title town for SF...baseball and football...wow...point spread remains at 3 1/2...

Is it just me or is this version of The Bachelor bland and boring?...it's like we have seen this before...a girl that the rest of the flock hates, that the guy likes, and gets the rose...what?...

Downton Abbey season 3 hits the stores today...get it...

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...

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
