Wowser

There are things that pop up so many times in the day...especially now...but, before I go to the headline of Sunday....let's travel back a bit to Eugene...where the Ducks of UO, made a miraculous last minute comeback...to knock off the very game, maybe deserved, Cougs of Washington State...

First of all, I am the one that thinks that WSU's head coach, Mike Leach, is a true offensive genius in the collegiate ranks...can change QB's each and every year...and teach those kids to be able to destroy any defensive schemes that are out there...including the Duck's version...a very highly touted one...as his O moved up and down the field, pretty much at will...they themselves scored a TD to essentially win this game...however, they scored too soon...left the Ducks a minute to do the same thing...

Second of all, I do not think that the UO has the best offensive mind calling their plays....just a personal observation...too conservative....maybe, just maybe, I am wrong...perhaps, it fits this team...BUT...the last minute of this game, they (he?) opened things up...let the natural talent of their gifted QB SHOW...marched right down the field for the winning...hold your breath, field goal...

This is the first time that the 4 year players of the Ducks have beaten Leach and his disciples...not easy, kids...and per usual, my cap goes off to the brilliance of Mike Leach...

Now...

There was 'big news' coming via a Tweetstorm, that Donny was to give us this morning...BIG NEWS...cuz, I was up so late watching the aforementioned game...the teaser was out...that Abu Baghdadi was killed...just who was this guy?

The leader of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant...well, ISIS...or is that ISIL?...some call it one and some call it the other...which is the terrorist group that wants to destroy the US...

The raid on his compound, or whatever you call it...left him no option...as he blew up himself and 3 of his children...with a vest that he detonated...

Trump had the call for the country this am...and for some reason felt the need to add that Baghdadi, 'he didn't die a hero, he died a coward...crying, whimpering and screaming...'...apparently, he wanted to emphasize this to his fellow terrorists just how he died...oh and yea, Trump had some other choice words he used...I will leave them unprinted..

Over in Japan...

Tiger continues on in his quest for his 82nd victory...to tie Sam Snead at the very TOP...think anyone will touch this number?...they stopped play on the final back nine...with Woods sporting a 3 shot lead...listen, have I ever told you that he is a really, really good golfer?...turn into the Golf Channel for the last 9 holes...oh yea, this is in Japan...I think I read that it resumes at 3:30 pm, our time...ah, the left coast...

Then...

The list of teams that are scurrying to the top ten in collegiate football...just had some upsets to their quest...no bigger loss, was the always over rated Irish of Notre Dame...who carries such a pitter pat of a schedule...that they often get into the top 4...well, not this time...as they were pulverized by Michigan...they gone...Oklahoma got upset by Kansas St...the Sooners staged a huge rally at the end...but, came up short...and LSU beat Auburn in a beaut...with the ever so close Duck win, they just may crack the top 10 this week...

OK, I admit it...I watched NONE of the game 4 of the World Series...zilch...as the visitor team won again...now even at 2...and today, game 5...in DC...where Donny will attend...let's set the stage here...BOOOOOOOO!...

Speaking of that...we have set out our decorations for Halloween...my fav is the lit up pumpkin...that one can see it anywhere on Market St...simple, yet, striking...

To be fair and balanced...the SDSU Aztecs somehow won in Vegas over the Rebels...talk about non-deserving...as UNLV missed a chip shot FG to send the game into OT...at the buzzer...I tell ya, Rocky wins...but, often, I don't know how...

Gosh, I saw a lot of terrible refereeing in the games yesterday...'instant replay' couldn't bail these teams out of some highly questionable calls...or lack of replay availability...the rules don't allow some...

I just saw that FORD is coming up with an even shorter class B motorhome...like next year?...going to sell it first in Europe...what, why?...have you seen the pix of it?...reminds me of what you would buy at IKEA, if THEY built one...very stark, modern, and extremely white...check it out...

If you are one of those befit by the time change...the inescapable. irrational, and unnecessary alteration in the clocks...the fall back thang...where we lose an hour of daylight at the end of the day....BOOOOOO!...well, it's NEXT weekend, not this one...

I am awaiting the Sunday Trib...not only for the latest on the mighty Padres...but the Master Sudoku...the ultimate challenge for moi...and yes, I have conquered it ONCE!...I am looking for number 2...

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...
