The Derby

Ah hem, the Kentucky Derby...matches any sport's singular important event...like golf's Masters...or football's Super Bowl...you get me drift...it's the day of the horses...3 yr olds...as millions of people stop...and watch the event at Churchill Downs...a place where this Horse has never been...the track will reportedly host over 200,000...yup, it's the real deal...

So who do I have?...as I said yesterday, I have 2...out of 20...there is not a lot of early speed in this particular race...so handicapping is extremely tough...the closers have to find a path through a lot of others...so...I picked Nyquist to get out and maybe hold on...or...my main choice, Mohaymen, to come out of the pack...Andy the Capper has his Creator...shoot, it just may be a crap shoot...haven't got me tix yet...have to stroll on over to Striders in the am...

Hey now, the Pads looked like a dang good squad last eve...beating the Mets again...this time a shut out, 2-0...great pitching...timely hitting...very good D...outstanding base running...and we go for number 3 tonight...in front of us...5 o'clock something game...we hit the Omni Club...terrific dinner...Happy Mother's Day...well...

Seems like I talk about the Repubs rumors every single day...the latest?...a 3rd party being drummed up to feature 2 time loser Mitt Romney...you have got to be kidding me...he is the ultimate loser...and has zero chance of winning...0%...if the foos did that it would absolutely guarantee a Demo winner...they can't be that stupid, can they?...get aboard the Trump train blokes, it's your ONLY chance...amazing...

Survivor...got caught up last eve...hmmm...amazing how the wimps of the camp are leading...not sure how they are going to survive the last 10 days...ha ha....still...great producing!...

NBA...the ancient Spurs got another W at OKC...the Thunder have the better individual players...but not the UNISON!...it is a team sport, dudes...Westbrook is a tremendous athlete...but I wouldn't want him on my 12...too selfish...his lack of discipline is legendary...and he pouts...then walks back up the floor on D...think about that...the patterned Spurs going 5 on 4....chalk up another series for San Antonio...done...stick a fork in 'em...

The line on tonight's Blazer/Warrior game is 3...hmmm...the bookies think that PDX is going to get it...bet it...as MVP probable Curry, will be out again...fly to Vegas...lay out a thousand quid on the PNWers...and there you go....you'll be a rich person...for a while...go on...do it...wait, I was just kidding...never, ever bet on the NBA...or, is that the NFL?...ah, it's the same...

My quest for the day...go into the archives and see if I can find an old putter that might catch me eye...I have been on a terror...well, terrifying...Doctor 3 putt...a change would be good...maybe I need to go to Golf Mart and roust one out...something...they have a 90 day guarantee...just what would that be?....

Speaking of putters...did you see where the PGA dude penalized himself for banging his putter on his noggin?...in action, so to speak...bent the shaft, thus incurring a 2 stroke penalty...lawdy, I've thrown a putter longer than most of my drives...the shaft had to have been bent...maybe my putter is bent...ha ha...calm down Cliffy...just a joke...

And, finally, for equal time...Hillary went shopping on 5th Avenue for a new pant suit...geez, isn't that a Trumpism?...I'm sorry...I'll do better next time...

 Oops, I almost forgot about this...the Nashville Pro Hockey team won a thriller in OT...in the playoffs...the winning goal was by Mike Fisher...what the pundits said, was "Mr. Carrie Underwood!"...duh, her hubby...

Peace...

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...
