Agony and the...

Hey, kids, how are you this fine morning?...hot hot hot here...and we are off to Vegas, baby...even hotter...pool time for us heathens...a couple of shows, a bit of the gambling thinger, and meeting up with our amigos from the Northland, them Morrises...shall be fun catching up...so, will not be posting for a bit...you know the drill...

To follow up on 'The Collision' blog...MLB ruled it like old times...no harm, no foul...the intentional strike by Rizzo was deemed not punishable...which in truth means this...the rule they implemented after the Posey Beat Down....is no more than lip service...have at it baseball guys...it is open season on the catchers...you want your collisions at the plate?...you got 'em...

So if one is to go back to old school ball...why in the hell didn't SD retaliate on him last nite?...instead, gave up a lead off dinger...back when, they would  have plunked him...in the back...very disappointed in the Pads...well, in MLB leadership in general...Joe Torre...he must be thinking, 'it's only the Padres, and we can't be censuring our cash cow, the Cubbies!'...the finger to him...yup, that one...I digress...

Are you trying to keep up with all this trading in the NBA?...the Lakers making the biggest splash thus far...giving up on their non-sensical pick a couple of years back...D'Angelo Russell...to get a late 1st round pick this year...to the lowly Nets...geez, LaLa can't be serious about the Ball kid, can they?...the Hawks traded away the once coveted C, Dwight Howard...and...the Q for today, where is Paul George  gonna land?...

I hope the Mets come to SD soon...as they are reeling big time...the debacle last eve in LaLa Land was embarrassing...gave up so many dingers, it was hard to keep track...on the number...the Bum's SS had 3 himself...oh my...and forgive me, you other New York fans...but your Yanks are tanking like for 7 straight times...how is Headley doing ?...ha ha ha...

$28 million bucks on uniforms for the Afghans?...over a decade of this?...who is giving the OK to such a BS thing?...pink slips shall be in order...imagine what we could do with this $ on dealing with our OWN problems...like the homeless...are you disgusted?...

Georgia held a special election for a Congressional spot...and, gulp, the republican candidate won...here's that money issue again...the Demos, themselves,  poured in a reported $23 million bucks for this election...are we not screwed up on the importance of spending our money?...c'mon...

Splitsville...I am talking in the golf world...Lefty and his caddie, Bones...have agreed to part...after 25 years!...not sure of the reason...it is said to be mutual...is that ever the truth?...other than on Seinfeld?...does Tiger need a caddie?...

Joe Torre must have been the investigative lead on the Bachelor in Paradise situation...nothing was found to be in the 'misconduct mode'...ok then...no harm, no foul...play on....and the show returns...think this may have been a 'ploy for interest in the titilating smut down in Mexico?'...ha ha...

KK just admitted to whom?...who cares...that her famous beach scene...she, was, in, fact, photo, shopped...what?...that she did have some cellulite shaded from it...what? surely you jest...this is big time news, not only for the Horse's Blog, but for most every one of my 11 top sources of info...are we all just hungry for news from Camelot?...that is what we call it, right?...

Time to get 'er done...lots to do today...you want a song?...how about..."Viva Las Vegas" by Elvis...

And...not sure how I missed this...but this is 'National Selfie Day!'...of course it is...dang, I got none for you...wait, my pix at the top left is fresh...is that not a great description?...FRESH...ha ha...
