Hey, kids, we are BACK!...had a terrific time with our buds, the Gahrs...all that was to be expected...and more...ha ha, what is more?...however...the end to the trip, was the LPGA event at Mission Hills...kind of sounds like a cemetery, doesn't it?...well, for sure, they should bury a rule that the PGA and LPGA use...where a bloke can call into the governing bodies, and tell them about a rule infraction that the viewer saw on his home TV...and then THEY assess a penalty the next day...following me?...

The leader in the T was Lexi Thompson...she marked a 1 ft putt awkwardly...like on the side of the ball...appears to be done, to stay out of the line of her playing companion...I dunno...let me repeat this...in the 3rd round...then she put her ball down directly behind the marker...maybe a 1/4 inch diff at most...voila!...2 stroke penalty...but here's the Horse's beef...

They then also...ALSO!...assessed her another 2 stroke penalty for signing her scorecard INCORRECTLY!...duh...it was the DAY BEFORE!...what a croc...as my good friend from the east...well, east of me...said...didn't the PGA do the same to Tiger at the Masters a few years back?...a TV infraction...but, didn't give him the 2 MORE penalty...duh...booooooooo!!!!...

The Duck game...gosh...block out on the free throw lane...do I say more?...well, that's the short version...took any chance of a last second dream heave...away...I must say Oregon played their worst for some time...and...North Carolina, who also did not play well, has a bonafide NBA type in Jackson...and he played like one...UO has none...just some fine, athletic dudes...really, had a great season...considering...they are a point guard away from winning it all....

The Zags won and are playing for the title tonight...should be a terrific game...and...I have it a toss up...BTW, I told you to take the dogs and the points...the Horse was right on...close frays...oh yea...at the place we were staying...the World Mark...there were a gazillion peops wearing Gonzaga tees and caps...all these dudes were from Spokane?...get on the train...ha ha...

Opening day for the Padres...gulp...at LaLa Land...and the Bums are pitching Kershaw...no chance for SD to go 1-0...none...it's a long season, and I fear...longer than most of us want...around here...well, the Cubbies, lost their opener, too...similarities?...same amount of players...hmmm...that's it...hey and there's this...the LA pitcher, Clayton Kershaw, makes more money than the ENTIRE San Diego roster...yes, it's all equal...

Tragedy on the subway in Russia...St Petersburg...bomb...I tell ya, kids...the evil doers are cowards and have no backbone...and need to be eliminated from the right to live on...

I taped the Country Music thinger...some awards one...and dang, if I didn't see on Twitter that Miranda Lambert won for the gals...geez, really?...I don't get it...she must have a terrific agent...cuz she ain't much of a vocalist...

We thought we would be smart  and leave early from the T...not so...got stuck in the LA traffic...as all of them were going back to LaLa Land from their weekend trip to the desert...dumb Horse...took us an additional hour to return to the friendly confines of SD...

Finally...da bills...it's THAT time again...my song for YOU today?...The theme from  'A Summer Place'...Percy Faith and his Orchestra...

You're gonna watch it tonight, aren't you...
