Pessimism

The one time that you can make your team better...is the MLB Draft...and IF...you do not spend a whole lot of $ on your picks...you just may shy away from selecting the best guys available...hmmm...the Pads have had a sad set of years in the draft...according to the Trib Beat writer, Nick Canepa, who has been here forever...SD has been pathetic...and this time...need to select only position players...like everyone BUT a pitcher...ha ha...

It's a grand time for a kid to get the phone call to further his dreams in the game...and...you might think...the quicker he can get to the Bigs, the better...and therefore...the Padres would be a perfect fit...this is what you need to say, if you are a bloke from the organization...right?...it begins tomorrow...I am...pessimistic...

The team took it on the chin yet again, last eve...scoring but 1 run in their 4-1 loss...and, unfortunately, are on a nose dive...something good has to happen...soon...or, well, you know...

I watched the early morning talkies on the tube...and guess what?...the sister novelists were a featured item...you know the K Fam teenagers who WROTE a book...yes, they wrote a book...

NBA...also starts tomorrow...as the Spurs are favored...what?...albeit a slight one...but still...it's not what I think...yet...SA has the home court advantage...and that has to be the difference...

The Belmont Stakes...the 1 1/2 mile test for the best 3 year old horses...and of course, all the racing world's eyes are on California Chrome...can he get it done?...I'll bet it that way...but have some doubts...as the come from behind hosses are real possibles...and the weather...wet?...sloppy or muddy track...this is a major factor...

John Daly has stated that he lost like $55 million from '91 to '07...who has that type of $ to lose?...and what?...he must be the worst gambler ever...

The 5-1 trade...you following this?...there has to be more to the story...as it is not a pretty one...something doesn't seem right...and the word is that his fellow soldiers said he deserted...then...does that mean he would be subject to military discipline?...like military prison?...so much more to come...

For those of you who are breakfast aficionados...you must try the english muffins from Trader Joe's...I lurve 'em, Marsh not so much...but, what does she know?...

I got the new CD by Miranda Lambert...and I like it...Petey likes it...now, kids, it is country...and like real country...so, if you are digging that type of stuff, it's a very good listen...

For all the hullabaloo that we spent on the new Tonight Show, starring Jimmy Fallon...I have watched it very little...hmmm...it's on too late for me...what?...

I'm still a waiting for the iPhone 6...

And that's the way it is...6/4/14...
