Fire Sale!

Oh my, the FIRE SALE is still going on in San Diego...the Padres...and their fearless GM, AJ Preller...you know him, as Trader AJ...who has done a perfect 180*...and is in the midst of trading away all the blokes he brought in for HIS 1st season...really...OK, if you have been reading me for some time...this is ancient news...but still informative...

The latest item is probably the most curious...the trade of RF Matty Kemp...probably our most powerful hitter...who...suddenly...became expendable...er, tradable...in essence, Trader AJ dumped him and his contract...he bought him out...to the amount of $30 million +...to the Atlanta Braves for a dude who has been banned from baseball for most of this season...domestic abuse...oh my...what is going on?...where are we going?

The Padres announced the addition of a country singer, Joe Nichols, to have a pre game concert on August 17, I think about then...oh my....Trader AJ got wind of it...thought otherwise...and you got it...traded him for a six pack of Bud...and a prospect!...

Speaking of that...the Padres have changed their nickname!...they no longer feel the need to have any religious affiliation...so...they are now called the San Diego Prospects...what?...with the average age of the new team to be around 19 years of age...the colors of the team have changed, too...to powder blue...gone are the
caps, too...the youngins will be wearing bandanas on their heads...alas, the picture here seems almost Native...see, we breed the change of the new king of baseball...AJ...who, he and only he, has the vision to guide the mighty San Diego people out of the depths of the cellar in Major League Baseball...well, I feel saved...don't you?...

Well geez...we took Snooki to the game last eve...did not see Kemp on the field and the dugout...knew that something was up...the seats we had were outstanding...at the Omni Club eatery...better than sitting with the normal folks...ha ha...as we cheered for whomever was wearing the Padres old unis...you needed a program to figure out the blokes...BTW, all the newly acquired Prospects, are playing in the minors....some where...anywhere...anyway, we lasted for 5 innings...a 1-0 thriller at the time...not...

The before the Prospects team, that SD trotted out there...won the game on a walk off HR in OT...jubilation?...I'm confused...

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...
