Sports Junkies

The end of June is an interesting time for SPORTS JUNKIES...as there are games galore going on...of course, MLB is a third thru...and the NFL blokes are starting up their summer sessions...the PGA and LPGA are in the midst of the "majors" time...there is World Soccer...and the NBA reconfigures their teams...

The Draft...set up so the worst get better...I dunno, it seems the worst is always the worst...and the choices usually come from Kentucky, Duke, Wisconsin (this time), Ohio St, and one guy from Arizona...and then a whole lot of bigs from Europe...that nobody knows...there you have it...so how about the teams that we follow...

The Trailblazers...oh my...they play just well enough to get a very low draft pick...little help there...and now their best player is opting out of the PNW...Aldridge...rumors abound...LA, SA, and Dallas, the top spots of landing...they just traded Batum...and they have the worst defensive scheme in the league...things are looking bleak for the Rose City...sorry Orygun kids, but it's true...don't blame me...

The Lake Show...probably going to make the biggest moves in all of the league...with the 2nd pick in the draft...will take the Duke C...they need a big...loads of maybes...trade him for the C from Sac...Boogie Cousins...don't...he is an absolute cancer to any team...and look for them to get either Aldridge or Love...or both...and my oh my...Dwaine Wade is a strong maybe...for Kobe's last hurrah...

The Clip Joint...hmmm...they have to keep their big Jordan...who I hope is trying to figure out how to make a FT...and need extreme help in their depth...to be a serious contender...nothing from the draft...they need to make a splash, or the other LA team will get back the crowd...BTW, you see the new uniforms?...turrible...

Golden St...the champs reload...and watch...they'll pick a kid that will fit right into that 2nd unit just fine...in their last of the 1st round choice...

The draft is tonight...and the trading will be prior....I like it...and with the 24th pick...the Portland Trailblazers select...Arvitas Zabonis...what?...still rings in me ears...1986...summer camp lunch...the beginning of the Europeans to be drafted...at the time, it seemed like a joke...

Other stuff...

The escaped convicts...still on the run...and another guard arrested...geez, if you lived around that prison, I'd be a little...wait...a lot concerned...what is going on?...

The Pads came back down to earth in the Bay Area...in fact...with a thud...shellacked one might say...rubber match today... another one of those "must win" games...

Jason Day has more wrong with him than they are letting on...or even more than he knows...

The Donald called Neil Young a hypocrite...shoot, I bet he can't spell the word...

The Boston Bomber...the judge delivers a death penalty...

Are there rigged games in the FIMA series?...did you see the Japanese goalie's effort?....what?...

The plastic surgeon for the K Fam must be a multi-millionaire by now...billionaire...

Big Brother started up last eve...taped it...will start the summer series tonight...call me what you want, but I like it...CBS, kids...

50th Reunion a month away...lordy...am trying for the perfect look....eegads, just maybe a lost cause...goatee or not?...I could always go back to this...oops...

A 13th bloke entered in the Repub side for Prez...he thought if the Donald was in, he had a chance...

Fox dropped Sarah...what?...why now?...she is funnier than that Spin Zone goon...right?...dang, and she just got a subscription to People Magazine...

Have the Timberwolves ever been a champ?...

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...
