Opening Day

Good morning kids...it's OPENING DAY!...well, it's opening night...as the Bums are in town...sporting their ludacris $233 million dollar team...the Pads are at $83 million...so, they are 3 times better, right?...ha ha...

The festivities are grand...the block party starts at 10 am...what?...yup...there's one thing...that at least half of the blokes going to the game...are BUM FANS!...the Latino Connection around here are huge LA followers...it's true...just grin and bear it...

I have been alluding to whom the catcher is going to be...it is Rivera...what?...seems like he catches our starter, Andrew Cashner, the best...by the way, a great article in the Trib about the life of him...the line?...oh yea, the Bums are favored...

This paper does a marvelous job in covering the Padres...and the MLB, in fact...

The aforementioned Miller Bros...in my yesterday's blog...both got beat...as Dayton and Arizona got the boot...the latter, Wildcats and Wisconsin fray....was a beaut...went to OT...and was horribly officiated....too bad, as the combatants were giving their all...a charge call topped it off...I did not care  who was the winner, but when the refs TAKE over the game...it's wrong...just wrong....

Cloudy today....too bad...as it will take away from the finals out at Aviara...Paula can't get anything going and will not be part of the final pairing...Cristie Kerr...watch out for her...but geez, she is sloooowwww...hate that...

Lefty pulled out of the Valero Open in Texas...told you...he's old and brittle...pulled a muscle in his side...an unknown Aussie is leading...so hard to win on the tour...just 2 weeks away from the Masters...

Marsh and I went down to Barley for happy hour yesterday...my oh my, there are some odd folks roaming the streets of the GQ...I'm just saying...today is a wine tasting thinger over at the Marriott on the Bay...odd, that it would be the same time as OD...we have a group going...

Futility is over...as the 76ers finally won...after 26 straight losses...I mention this cause I had a team that lost 21...my oh my, that was NOT fun...worked my arse off...

And the missing plane?...is still just that...

Time for some breakfast...and GO PADS!

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...
