Solheim Cup

Image
It's the ladies turn at drama...oops, is that a redundant statement?...anyhoo...the gals are at it in Colorado... Solheim Cup ...looks more like the desert, doesn't it?...as the Europeans took the day one lead, 5-3...some fun matches for sure...the leader of them?...the studette Suzann Peterson ...ice in her veins...and loads of ability...they are in day 2 now...Golf Channel... Speaking of redundancy.. .the Pads lose again...as their newly acquired P, Ian Kennedy, got hammered...and not that we didn't have many chances at scoring...but out RISP hitting is abysmal...too many things to talk about...I have to find a way to communicate better... The Eagles ...now I heard another side of the story...peops are starting to worry that Coach Chip's system may just work...what was all that laughter about?...hey, I'm talking the NFL's Philadelphia team...and, the other Phillie team...what on earth are they doing firing their manager Charlie?...they are inundated with ...

Got to stay positive

Fuggit about it ....the abysmal Padres blew a perfectly well played game last eve ...doesn't this sound like deja vu?...all over again?...and what the Trib and the Padres won't say...their set up guy ruined yet another game... Gregerson ...he just doesn't have it...tee ball...and SD keeps trotting him out in the 8th...and he doesn't deliver...so we lose...ho hum...there is always tomorrow...let's get real kids...put in our back up closer, Thayer , in the 8th spot...why is this so hard to see?...I could go on... Keeping it positive...oops... the Bolts played miserably at Chi-town...they do have injuries...but...it's just pre-season...but I am very leery about what's coming down the pipe...???....keeping it in the NFL...the pundits were laughing at the Eagles...laughing...I think there is a bit of reservations about Coach Chip... OK, on the other hand.. .the Solheim Cup cranks up this am...and the US is favored...what?...it's against Europe...not...

World Series

Image
PROGNOSTICATION!...it's a clear course for the two best teams in MLB ...straight to the World Series ...I'm not kidding...the LA Dodgers are the hottest team in the game...winning at a 75%+ rate...which is like crazy...with above average pitching and way above average hitting...and having the "it" factor...they will rip through that side of the bracket...over in the AL... the Tigers of Detroit ...have it all, too...even though they lost their SS to the PEDS thing...but can return for the playoffs...well, they have the best hitter in ball, Miggy...and their overall pitching is BETTER than the Bum's...makes for a terrific upcoming series... One team not going in that direction... the Pads ...eegads...they find ways to lose...this time the series to the Rockies...with crazy bad base running...and guys out of position, making valiant efforts...but making mistakes...that lead to wins for the foes...boo...finally, the Trib brought out the demise of 3B Headley.......

Egypt

Image
I suppose this picture could be anywhere in the middle east...however, this is Egypt ...I thought that there was a "democratic" election? ...imagine if the republicans fought like this after the last 2 of ours...anyway, it's time that people reacted appropriately...whatever that means...faith based governments have a heck of a time working... Every time I bad mouth the Pads , they come out with a decent effort...I guess, er, I know, Mgr Buddy read the riot act on the blokes...after their last two debacles...something about pride...apparently, Chase Headley didn't get the memo...going 0-5 and is the worst number 3 hitter in all of baseball...move him down and promote somebody, anybody!...the situation with him there....just ain't working...duh... Watched the Country Music Fest last eve...some great spots...whenever Carrie is singing...the trio of Tim, Taylor, and Keith was spot on...as well as Little Big Town ...others were ok...saw the 3 hour show in a...

NFL

Image
For all of the hullabaloo about the upcoming NFL season ...injuries and all...it's still a month away...throw out all these ridiculous pre-season games...that some blokes actually wager on...and settle down...it's just practice, kids...however... the Bolts have had significant injuries to their wide receiver corps...very significant...and one month won't do it, I fear...so expect some oldies but goodies to inhabit this land...very soon...like Ochocinco , Terrell Owens, and others ...really...like on a look see...this will really test this management...by the way, Mante is injured...remember, a month to go... Eegads, the Pads in their biggest stinker of the year... got lambasted by the Rockies...as we made 4 errors or so...14-2... as this season is spiraling down...down...down ....major changes are needed in the offense...good thing I didn't rent to the lefty....as he got rocked again...he may have a short stint in the bigs...and so it goes... Pick 6 carryover ...

Daddy Cool

Image
Like it's so groovy...the coolest cat of all won the PGA Title ...a kid from 'Bama ... Jason Dufner ...he is the new "old style" guy out there...and a great model for speed players in the game...had to just kill him to play with the slowest player in the whole, entire world ... Jim Furyk ...OMG, hit the ball Jim!... he should be penalized two strokes every time he plays until he gets it ...back to daddy cool...he takes a few  waggles and pops the ball...and he was on this week...his 1st major...rad, man... The Pads are just miserable offensively ...I could again go through each spot, but it's too long...ha ha...they are not clutch and are just turrible...over and over the likes of Nick Hundley ...can't lay down a clutch bunt...as they fall in 13...poop....it's so frustrating to watch them play... On the other hand, the Bums are fantastic...and are on such a roll that they will represent the National League in the World Series...fuggit about th...

Family

Nothing like the family getting together...if you don't do it enough, do so...invigorates one's self... I am surprised at the PGA ...of all people shining through...ageless Jim Furyk ...can he win it?...I doubt it...he has had the lapses at the end of T's...I am pulling for Jason Dufner ...it shall be fun watching the drama today...TNT, then CBS... Oh my, just when I bad mouth the Pads , they put together a good one...baseball...never, ever, bet on the game...nice pitching and great D...and turrible D by Cincy...the magic potion... I think it's a farce that the NFL has all these exhibition games and charge top $...and the top blokes only play one series or two... Not too long before school cranks back up...what?... Made hash browns, link sausages, fresh fruit, scrambled eggs, and biscuits...man, it was a great AM feast .. .Leila , you missed out big time!... I dedicate this next week to Del Mar ...will set my sails on two of the days...$$$... I can...
