Significant

Morning, kids...are we witnessing the end of the very long, drawn out poli-tick scene? ...it's down, er up, to Indiana ... Coach Bobby Knight is the final endorsement for the Donald ...I suppose more important than their governor...this could be it...and Raffy will be driven down the river in a small raft, that has his VP Carly aboard...without any paddles ...and... Hilz should prevail ...there you go... The Blazers win! ...wrapped up the series 4-2 over the injury depleted Clip Show ...and now, it's off to play against the Golden St Warriors ...this will be a fun set...both teams will get up and down the floor...if you like speed, this is your stuff... any chance for PDX?...way way long shot....way way... I blinked twice... the Pads beat the Bums in LA ...in game one...surprise surprise surprise....the former Dodger, Matty Kemp, his dinger was the difference ...is there another W in the offing?...see above...ha ha... The Draft ...got a thought that the Bolts did wel...

NFL Draft

Morning kids...not often that Horse is right on...he was this time...as the Chargers, with the 3rd pick overall...and the best one of the draft...took Ohio St's DL, Joey Bosa ...who can help...NOW!...you see, if you take a QB...it's a gamble...witness many of them that have floundered...as I said yesterday, there were 5 top players to get...you could not go wrong... this one was the elite...tremendous sign for the Bolts... John Boehner ...the retired Speaker of the House...had some choice words for and about Raffy ...odd, as he has been the heart and soul of the Repubs in Congress for a good long bit... "miserable son of a bitch" ...what?...not my words...but his...let's be very clear... Boehner is describing Ted Cruz ...er, Lyin Ted...that has to be an absolute shock to the system of the RNC...and to think that Raffy just named Carly has his VP...wondering, P and VP of what and where?... The Donald is in SoCal...starting his campaign here for the door sla...

Just a Smorgie

Image
Many, many moons ago...when we were rolling about in our VW Camper Van ...we came about a city where we wanted some simple food ...was filling up the gas tank...asked a bloke who was at the service station...he told us right up the street was a nice place... "but, it's just a smorgie" ...stuck in our minds forever... Kind of where my mind is today...just a smorgie ...the highlight?...of all the things that I heard or read in the last 2 days...is Raffy , who is getting mauled at the polls , having the audacity to name a VP...what?...and no...this can't be true...he named Carly! ...OMG!...who promptly sings a song of unison...can't make this up...this is the most bizarre step that any of the candy men this time around has done... imagine the SNL staff in their meeting this week... PDX Blazers found a way to beat the depleted Clip Show in LA ...as, the obvious is happening...Portland will win and move on to face the Warriors...Lillard was like a trace of himse...

A Clang Fest

Clang, bang, boom ...went the sound of the hoops...as the basketball caromed off the rim...in one of the poorer played and shot...Playoff games you'd see...yup...the Blazers and the Clip Joint ...let me tell you about it... First there were the pundits ...the Golden St Warriors star guard, and league MVP... Steph Curry is out of action for at least 2 weeks ...bum knee...and the "experts" had them losing this season to the Clippers...finally, they said...hmmm...wait a minute Charlie... LA is embroiled in a donnybrook up in PDX...NOT a pushover ...however, to the sports goons, it is...er, was... The Trailblazers played with passion...albeit with little luck on their shooting and their plays...but...it was better than their "anointed" opponent, the Clip Joint ...who were a bit worse...looked like it would go down to the last minute...kind of like an old time NBA game... Then...pop!... LA's star PG, CP III, goes down with a broken hand ...got caugh...

Monday Decaf

Put an extra lump of sugar in your coffee, this am, kids...as the poli-ticking is getting strong...way strong...the Repubs are stretching as far as they can to repel the Donald...coercing the other 2 in the Prez race, to JOIN HANDS ...and combat Trump ... a final leap of desperation, so says the Horse ...and...one of the dudes behind the Tea Party, one of them Kochs, is making waves about how bad the front runner is...even saying that the Hilz is better...wait, get this, than any of the 3 remaining...hinting that Clinton would be a better Prez...got that?...for the record, Hillary rejected any "endorsement" by Koch ...ah yes...the 4th Super Tuesday is but a day away...yup, you'll need something to add to your french roast this am.... NBA ...just a very odd finish to the Rocket/Warrior game yesterday...with the Beard laying flat on his back in the 4th Q...and the Curry kid in the locker room , having twisted his knee in the 1st half...as Golden St won easily...le...

FUN

Now that was fun, wasn't it...the Portland Trailblazers beat the Clip Joint in the Rose City...it's a 2-1 series ...and the game itself...had some interesting moments for sure...t he 2 guard tandem of PDX was too much for LA to handle ...it was the best show on last eve...let's hope the Blazers can get the next one, also in the PNW... hip hip hooray!... On the other hand, my exuberance was short lived for the Padres ...as...gulp... the newly departed Jed Gyorko...had a terrific game...for the Cardinals ...including a 3 run tater...as it is...obvious...that San Diego...has lots of holes to fill ...and St Looey romped...boo...ha ha... Don't know what to think about this... a huge rally down in the East Village ...for the passage of the projected Charger Stadium there ...which included none other than the NFL Commissioner, Roger Goodell...to get the public to sign the petition to have it on the November ballot ...very impressive...maybe, I have been very wrong a...
