Full Effort

Play with passion...like this is your last game of the season...get on the floor...take a charge...double the key guys...no free and easy layups...deny deny deny...block out...defend the rim...run run run...OK, you get the picture...listen, you don't have to be the most talented to play D...and THAT'S the way to equate the haves and the have nots...extreme effort...

No better example of that than the Miami Heat...man for man, much less talented than their match up, the 76ers...Philly is NOT backing down, either....so you have a donnybrook...absolutely terrific hoop play...yes, the 6ers will probably win it...but not before they are challenged in every way by Miami...

Not so in Portland...as their folly continued and went flat...got swept by the N'orleans whatevers...in a defensive mockery by the Blazers...compare the play by Miami and PDX...there are no similarities...really, it is embarrassing...as this blogger has been saying all season...and there needs to be a change at the top...they have many good parts, but, don't get the D thang...I could break down the reasoning, but naw...

What are the atrocious colors of the Utah Jazz?...I thought they were green and purple...now they are red and yellow?...WTH?...OK, throw that aside...they play with passion and purpose...like the effort of the Heat...and beat the more talented, individually, OKC...the Thunder are a mystery to moi...should be so much better...but don't play in sync...

Let's move on...

You following the heated twitter war with Prez T and the NY Times writer?...a gal...he said, she said...he is bullying whom?...she is a 3rd rate...blah blah blah...isn't he supposed to be the ultimate answer for us right now?...it is alarming and mortifying...

So a crazy kid goes into a Waffle House and starts shooting...kills 4 and wounds others...a patron tackled the scum and took  the gun away from him...and the killer escapes...he was naked...goodness, what have we come to?...this happened last night...Antioch, Tennessee...I think...

The passing of Barbara Bush, wife of Prez George H Bush...such a classy lady...at the funeral yesterday there was a missing person...Prez T...Melania was there...I guess, in lieu...let's leave that alone...the unwritten rule, is to send the wife...to save the ceremony from the security needed for the acting Prez...whatever...

Jack Johnson...the heavyweight champ of the world, over a 100 years ago...got arrested and convicted by a jury to go to PRISON for immorality...you see he was black...and took a white woman across state lines...the Mann Act...an all white jury...listen, it was real complicated and just try and follow it...still, Prez T is debating a pardon, posthumously...

So close was the effort of the Pad's Ross for a no hitter...then the next night, the fete was done by an Oakland A dude....against the hottest team in the game...the Bosox...a couple of controversial calls, went the dudes way...it's all OK by moi....good on him...

And...hopefully finally...I have been like way sick...and after hearing from others...I was not the only one...that got whatever from our trip to Borrego...food poisoning...and I won't be graphic, but it put me in unchartered waters...I think I am almost back...to normal...you don't know how good, good is, until you have been bad...

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...
