Nail Biter

A typical type Civil War game...throw out the records...bring in the pride...strap it
up...and you have the battle of the state...and in the 4th Q, the lead kept changing hands...in the end, it was the Ducks surviving...and getting the 6th straight of these...

Both teams were coming off abysmal showings in their last...which gave the illusion of a yawner...for this one...NOT...OSU played like they did a month ago...and were actually, gulp, the better team last night...it's true Duckee fans...the only thing that held them out of the victory was crappy play calling...UO, for the last month, can not stop the run...porous...and that's what got the Beavs going...and then they got cute and threw the ball, way too often...

I may be wrong on this...but...here's my theory...the Ducks were up by 1...and OSU was driving and inside the Duck 25...inching their way to a game winning FG...about 1:30 to go...Time Out...it appeared to me that the Ducks let the Beavs score on the next play...either that or their D turned absolutely atrocious...in a critical time...and thus got the ball back...and then, themselves, put on a spirited march down field for a spectacular throw and catch by Mariota and Huff...to win the game...

There are times when it's time to leave...and that bloke from Nebraska has worn his welcome out...not a place for the wicked and foolish...UDub beat WSU in the Apple Bowl...good...hate the foo from the Cougs...not the Cougs, but the coach...Ohio St and Mich...rumors are swirling that if the Wolverines don't win, it's the end for the former SDSU Coach (he who was here for 1 season before bolting to Mich)...Fresno St got pummeled by SJS, and fell from the unbeatens and the BSBCS...

It's that time of the NBA season that guys get tweaks and sit out games and all...CP111 did just that...and they were playing at Sac...still, they won, in OT...a very good sign...and...my headdress is off for the Bull's Rose, who may have played his last game...when you tear both knees up, in that game of twisting, turning, and jumping...the odds are against you coming back with the same ability and tenacity...too much fear....

There is this place out by Jerome's...you know the place...City Lights...where the entire store is Xmas stuff...trees, lights ornaments, etc...anything you can imagine...and M wanted another Santa for her collection...plus we needed some purple lights for the inside...so we hit the joint and mission accomplished...if it is made, it is there...way cool....

Watched a great college hoop game last eve, too...SDSU upsetting Creighton...the 20th ranked team in the nation...which reminds me of the Pete Maravich's LSU team of the late 60's...now don't get racial on me...but they have some huge white kids in the front court...the Aztecs play tough, full court, D...very athletic...the played at Fullerton St...whose gym resembles a high school one...holds like 4500 or so...odd...with the following of SDSU, you could play it at the Lakers Palace...

Do the Aussie golfers get a break?...it's their season now...
Remember I said the Zona hoop team was to be the Pac 12 champs?...
They beat Duke yesterday....trust CH...
When Cris was at dental school at Vegas, we never, ever beat SDSU...
Bama and Auburn...upset?...
FSU and Florida...bye bye Beau...
Mizzou and Texas A&M...man, good games today...
UCLA and USC...
ASU and Zona...
Whatever happened to Anthony Kim?...
On this date in '56, Floyd Patterson KO'd Archie Moore...
For the heavyweight title...remember boxing?...
Talk about concussions...
San Diego Christian continues it's pounding tour...
Ripped by 30 by Grand Canyon...?....
That new Lexus sure looks great....hmmm...

Wassies in the mix...

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...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
