Feel Good Story

Once in a while, a feel good story happens...this time it is in the field of golf...at the legendary, and quite expensive Pebble Beach GC...the winner, was a lefty...not THE Lefty....alias, Phil Mickelson...but the so poorly named pro golfer...'a journeyman'...who grinds it out every week...you know, like the every day worker, anywhere...rarely wins, but plods along...

In the Pro Golf world...you have to do enough to keep your PGA card...like win...or make lost of $ finishing in the top ten, or at least in the top tier...don't and you have to go back to qualifying...school...to earn the right to play in these T's...sometimes, blokes will go over seas to other tours...some will qualify just enough to get to the JV tour...now called the 'Web.com'...

Ted Potter, Jr is one of these guys...put it all together this weekend to WIN at Pebble...outlasting a slew of established characters, ie, DJ, Jason Day, the red hot Chez Revie, and others...won by 3...been like 6 years since he won on the PGA Tour...his only other W...in the meantime...he struggled...broke his ankle...and actually was on the Web.com Tour one of those years...and MISSED all 24 cuts in that season!....this is a perfectly named 'journeyman'...

In the aftermath of the win, his interview was filled with choked up pride...and relief...that he fulfilled his life long passion...being good enough to get the victory on the PGA Tour...again...his voice cracked, his eyes teared up, and we all were enamored with this FEEL GOOD STORY!...

Other...

The renewed Cleveland Cavs...with their new cast of players...4 newbies...had a field day in Boston...wait, in Boston?...not a good sign for the east...what they have, one or two practices?...maybe this practice thing is highly over-rated...hey, that's what A.I. said years ago...

I have watched about 2 minutes of the Winter Olympics thus far...should I be?...can't get me self to do so...

You see, there are all these Vets in their very own practice facility ....just awaiting to get signed on to a MLB club...it will happen...the damn will break...and it will be fast and furious...maybe today...

Help me out here...I saw a pix of Kylie, just a few days after 'giving birth'...and she looked quite normal...gals, let me know...doesn't it take a bit of time for the body to get back to where it was prior to the pregnancy?...unless, someone wasn't really...something seems awkward here...not sure why I gave a rat's arse about this...

So the former West Winger, Rob Porter...and I'm not talking the TV version...has been accused of 'beating' his ex-wives by his ex-wives...this can't be good for him...or them...isn't he the dude who is dating Hope Hicks?...is that her real front name?...now THIS sounds like an Enquirer story, right?...nope, all from the real pages of the....well...Kellyanne Conway talked about it yesterday on CNN's 'State of the Union'...she somehow defended the dude...

This out of Colorado St...guys hoops...the head coach there was put on leave...he 'allegedly' coaches the old school style of berating his players...there was a revolt..and then, the school named an assistant to coach in the interim...ah ha...he was put on leave next...same situation...they are on coach number 3...listen, coaches, that horrific method is GONE!...done...treat your kids with respect...

The powers to be in that sport...who name the top 65 or so, for the Big Dance...let out their first 'maybe' bracket of the top 16...alas, two of their number ones in the 4 regions got beat this weekend...Villanova and Virginia...hey, it is a wide open affair...

You know, I still can't get over the Supreme Court's members...blatantly boycotting the Prez's 'State of the Union' address...they think they are above the law, that they decide on for the rest of us...to follow...this needs to be dealt with...maybe instead of wearing a black robe for six months, it should be turquoise...for the ones not in attendance...

We drove all the way to Sycuan for the Poco and Pure Prairie League concert...it was fun...PPL was the opening act...they had a tight band, that had some hits, that I recognized...Amie, for one...and then Poco...an original dude dominated...terrific musician...their best?...a Cajun style of 'Crazy Love'...really...cool...

He is alive and kicking...

Top of the morning, friends...as we embark on a shortish Cosmo trip (6+ hours) up north to see the kids. ..we try to see them every month or two....whatever works for us, and them...school has just started for them...and Cy has both football and soccer, he is playing...Cas, at 3, is still a wannabe... The distancing of trump with the public, was a bit weird, right?. ..he emerged and was talking the same...his appearance was a bit shaggy...he must have had the flu, or, well, Covid, or something...but, he is NOT DEAD....and still up to his shenanigans...same old...anything to bring up, to divert the people from hearing about the Epstein Files ...he unabashedly, called the whole thing a 'Democratic Hoax'... Hmmm...as 6 of the Survivors of it...(the Epstein Case) ...were talking, not only to the House....but, to the public, yesterday...as MTG was front and center with it...which, too, was odd...a fallout from trump?...or, a plant within the group?...no, trump, it is not a hoax.....

The Ignominy

So much for diplomacy ... the absolute embarrassment by the current President of the US...his actions in 'hosting' the Ukranian President Zelensky ... as it turned out, a highly visual representation of bullying by trump...the manners and methodology that he uses on people...aligned with his arse kissers, waiting their turn to take potshots at Zelenksy...all well orchestrated ...it was the ULTIMATE IGNOMINY of our country's 'leader'...unfortunately, for us, too...as somehow we are connected to that ogre...in reality, we are not... hoping the rest of the World can see that...here are samples of the headlines throughout that depict the sentiment of the slaughter... We are NOT aligned with Putin...WE ARE NOT!...trump is ...which begs a different query...how much longer can this idiocy go on?... I keep asking this...what does Putin have on trump, anyway...it must be a formidable foible... Talk to me, kids... This ploy of the orange...to actually simulate a firing squa...

A Trial, Indeed

The revenge tour is ramping up ...as we gawk at the unchecked moves by trump ...even SCOTUS , the last leg of justice, is wobbling beneath his demands... this country is in disarray ...I wish I could give you better news... The unsightly attack of one of his Icetapo behemoths, on a lady in New York...taking her to the ground...an example of the uncontrolled behavior of that organization...guess that is what you call the group... simply, out of control, with NO LIMITS of force ...sad...and disgusting... The indictment of his former FBI head, James Comey ...for lying (imagine that from a legendary liar, trump) to Congress...this court case is needed for the country...to show the fallacy of the regime that is running rampant all over the land...it needs to be a BIG STAGE! ... A trial, indeed... In data released by trump's own government...the largest groups of detainees...the Icetapo's achievement of rounding up people...are not the ones with ANY CRIMINAL RECORD , but, 'illeg...
