Game Day
Fired up?...kind of...as we like the pomp and circumstance of it all...how can you not?...been invited to join in on a tailgate...and gander at the festivities prior to the football...it's all fun...however, not sure if we have any Aztec stuff to wear...what?...
Hot, too...is this bloody weather...83* at game time...for around here, that is a bit toasty...we use the tram to get there and back...walk a few blocks to the station pick up spot...then it drops you off right at the stadium...way cool...
Actually, the season started up last week...for other schools...but this is the night for us...ha ha...hey, imagine this...Colorado St put up 58 points on Oregon St, yet only mustered 3 on Colorado...dog year for the Beavs?...I reckon so...when is the last time Army scored 64?...in football...Glenn Davis and Doc Blanchard era?...all these powerhouse teams, take on patsies, so to speak...it's a money deal for the losers, and a sure thing W for the bigs...usually, on their opening day...
Not so much for 'Bama...as they are in a huge fight with Florida St...winner takes all...and the loser will spend the rest of the season making up for it...I ALWAYS pull against the Tide...
Other...
More sports...sorry you who want other stuff...the Bums came in to Petco...riding a big losing streak...for them...brought Kershaw off the DL...and he mowed down the Pads, like no problem...a 1-0 thriller...not, as SD barely hit the ball out of the infield...just what the beisbol doc ordered up for LaLa...a trip south to heal their wounds...today is a double dip...
My blog yesterday was all about the insidious detective in Utah...you see the video?...this guy is a piece of shit...and NO COP would be proud of his actions...gives them a bad name...for sure...finally, he has been put on a leave of absence...get him out of there...no place for that stuff...
Hey, whenever you think our judicial system seems bad...just read about some others...like in Kenya...where their Supreme Court negated their last election...hmmm, now wait a minute...there are those of you out there, may think they are on to something...stop that Demos...
You still watching Big Brother?...without a doubt, the worst collection of human beings they have ever had on the show...and I am talking attitudes and how NOT to treat other people...right?...
Sept 12 is the launch date for the new iPhone 8...you can probably get one a week later or so...plop down a thousand bucks, and ya'll can get the entry level piece of that phenomena...I'm betting that my golfing partner has one before YOU do...hmmm, seems like I just got my 7 plus...
This is the time of year, that MLB teams out of the hunt...sell off (er, trade off) their players that are near the end of their contracts...one doing so, is the Detroit Tigers...supplying the Houston Astros with a bonafide stud pitcher in Justin Verlander...huge gain for them...hey, you just need 3 great starters to win it all....
Is it just me, or isn't this 'playoff system' in the PGA long and laborious?...I mean, I could hardly care what is what...too many T's...imagine what it's like for the players...these dudes have already made a boatload of cash...just sayin'...
And then there was this...when I bellied up to a bar in Nashville...and ordered a 'Jim Beam and Diet Coke'...the gal at the counter, asked me if I was sure I wanted to do that...shhhh, so no one can hear me...'you know you are in Tennessee, right?'...we have Jack only...'yes maaaaam'...loudly I responded, 'make that a Jack and Diet'...a very true story...
