CRAZY HORSE

Just a quickee, kids...as I have a golf T at 8...which means I leave here at 7...yup...the Eclectic...it's kind of fun...two consecutive Saturdays...post today, and then, next week...try to beat the bad scoring holes I have...today...got it?... Tried to watch and listen to last night's Pad/Giants game...oh my...the commentators spent a goodly portion of it, discussing the reasons for the bad 1st half record of the...get this...GIANTS!...as they methodically whupped the home team...and...they should be realistic about the Pads...so badly pieced together by the awful GM...and...the struggles of the one time all star, Wil Myers...whose plate appearances are in the below the mendoza line efforts... Did you see the latest crap coming out of Paul Ryan's boca?...he has and or is...trying to put forth a dress code for the ladies in Congress...what?...what, are we back in the 50's?...no open shoulders in the work place...more like this...the LPGA has endorsed a new one of ...

The best working day of the week... FRIDAY! ...er, that's what I vaguely recall... every thing seems a bit brighter...sharper...funner (?, a word?)...alas, there is a little more of a pep in your step ...a swagger in your...well, you get the message...it's just a good good day... Didn't Prez T just return from Europe?...he's back...this time in France...don't see the odious protesting there, like in Hamburg...BTW, have you noticed that this story has completely died...whatever happened to all them blokes who were setting their streets ablaze?...how about the triumphic return to NYC for their mayor?...ah yes, nothing like being ignored...not a good thing for politicians... MLB is finally returning to action...'Where The Action Is'...remember that music show?...geez, sorry about that...the Pads are hosting the team that they are ahead of in the west...the SF Giants...really...who are suffering from lack of scoring...ah yes, this ought to be a good series...

Morning, kids! ...you write much?...there is a lot of ways to say things in a sentence...depending on where the comma is put ...without the comma in 'Morning kids' ... may refer to the fact that I am talking about the type of kids you are, in lieu of 'evening kids' ...sure, you get it...so, the Horse not only writes in the 3rd person, but not in sentences either ...this way, you can badger me about my grammatical misgivings all you want...and Jimmy Crack Corn, I don't care...what?... Oh my...we watched the History Channel's Amelia Earhart Show last eve...how the 'investigative crew' dug into private files, kept by our government in yet another, coverup...and unleashed on the pixel world... 'The Picture' ...that the US had in safe keeping that showed Amelia and her navigator ...after the alleged 'lost at sea' report was made...hmmm... 1937 ... a strange time to be flying about the world, right? ...the World was into the cold war e...

Hey now, that was kind of cool... the Home Run Derby ...at least this year's version...where the hitters were put on the clock...4 minutes to hit out as many as the body could...different from the 10 outs, that stopped the dingers...that's a lot of swings in a short period of time...taxing?...you bet... Aaron Judge was the clear winner...his 1st round match with the home town dude, Jason Bour. ..was epic...the compact lefty hit 21 out...so when it was the Judges turn...that had to be near impossible to beat...not so for him...just seems to pop off his bat...everywhere!...listen kids, he is the REAL deal... I'm not a fan of enclosed stadiums ...the Marlins one, no diff...the game is and should be played outside...the summer thinger...however, MLB and their new playgrounds now have retractable roofs...as does this Florida one...as you could see the lighting bolts hit outside of it. ..I guess they had no option...ha ha...I give this production an 'A' ...even wit...

Now, this dinger party started back when I was but a mere lad...featured the 'heroes' of that era...including my fav, Rocky Colavito ...it was an ongoing show, that had all of 'em in a match situation...much like MLB is doing tonight...except it took like a month or so, to show them all... Willie Mays, Mickey Mantle, Hank Aaron, Harmon Killebrew...the list went on and on. ..nobody turned it down...and featured interviews of the players, as their opponent crushed the ball...it was fun... OK, NOW ...it is a diff thinger...more of an extravaganza...the featured bangers are there... the Judge kid from the Yankees and the Marlin's Stanton (last year's champ)...seems to me, that they change the format every year...oh well, it's decent TV and that's all that MLB wants ... The original 'Home Run Derby' was so long ago...that is was filmed and shown in black and white ...ha ha...now everything is in color and high definition...not sure if the bloke...

The hits just keep right on a coming... the Houston Rockets ...you know, of the gold mine, called the NBA...your pro hoops...must have felt that they were in danger of losing their star player... 'the Beard'...ah hem, James Harden ...so, they signed him up for some more years...and they plopped out a mere...don't blink... $57 million dollars a season ...wait...what?...for a dude who plays NO D?...and fades in the playoffs?...how much money does this team...and the league...actually make?... Must be gads...at the expense of you...the fan...and, of course, the TV channels...and the NBA Package...let's see, our Prez makes $400 thousand a year ...is something amiss?...now calm down, any Prez, not just this one... Staying in the game...I am an extreme doubter of the Ball kid out of UCLA...as you, my patient readers, know...however... the daddy has become a spectacle in himself ...and somehow it is working...for them...they have gotten so much notoriety, that the sum...
