Game Day!

Let's give politics a rest for the day, OK?...a later tee time, allows me to write a bit this morning...well, 9 am...foggy around here, but where I play at Sycuan, it is to be 95*...egads...it's a Saturday, and you got it...it is GAME DAY!...

Just an odd time for the kick off of the Ducks up in Orygun...11 am...what?...hosting the Portland St Vikings...who just got clobbered in their opener last week...thus, the outcome of this one is predictable, and get this...wasn't even on the cheat sheet for betting, that I read every morn in the Trib...these are tough games, as over confidence can be difficult to monitor in practice...

San Diego St has Sac St...expecting a crowd of 45,000+...which is good for early on for the Aztecs...who play at the Q...where the departed Bolts used to inhabit...get this, the now LA Chargers play in a stadium that holds 27,000...go figure...oh yea, back to the college game...SDSU will win, but the score will be close...

Back east, there are storms a brewing...which makes the games iffy...and, if ya'll could judge by the Friday nite game of TCU at SMU...delays and awful playing conditions...abound....rain, lightning, thunder, and very slick fields...and pigskins...favor the squads who can run the ball...

In the never ending Fed Ex T...most every player was under par, but Tiger, Lefty and DeChambeau...in round 2...the picks for the Ryder Team...I guess the pressure was off...the weather will be a factor for round 3...I believe the leader is Xander...the SDSU bloke...who is number 12 in the Ryder player standings...and wants that last spot...but, there are those who would rather have Tony Finau...makes it tuff for Coach Furyk, if X wins the T...and passes him over...

The Pads got hit hard by the Redlegs...as SD used lots of youthful arms...not this time, as the 'growth' was stunted a bit...ha ha...I will give them a pass tho, as the home plate umpire's strike zone was brutal...it was kind of eerie...as the first two close calls at first base...both were against the Padres...were overturned...something smells...I wonder if they keep stats on what umps have the most overturned calls?...you know, like BLOWN calls...you do know, there is a lot of money bet on these games...very strange...

Of all the headlines that could be out there for the sources I read...Cardi B and Nikki Minaj got into a fight...good lord, really?...this is news?...headlines?...

The Miss America pageant goes on without bikini's...OK, then...the key must be the ridiculous questions on World Peace...right?...and who can muster up a passable song of the 40's...

In 1931, President Herbert Hoover instituted a plan to deport Mexicans back to Mexico...by the end of the 30's, an estimated 1.8 million had been moved...60% were already US Citizens...

Cops are calling 'scooters' a major problem...ah ha, this was in Nashville...really, everywhere...

Time for some grub...clean up and hit the links...have a great day, kids...

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...
