Green, With Envy

How about THAT!...the University of Oregon Ducks won the Pac 12 Title last eve...convincingly...37-15...and has (have?) won the rights to go on to the coveted big daddy of all bowls...the Rose Bowl...let's get into it...

Utah came into the game, heavily favored...with a reputation of having the most solid and ferocious defense on the western side of the country...fear them...their line is extraordinary...the east coast pundits all but gave the match to them...in and on the airwaves...the miked up crew of Herbstreit and Fowler...who called the fray, were pumped to help get this winner into the Final 4...with the expected mauling of the Ducks...

Not so fast, boys...I get where they were coming from...as they we're in the broadcast for BOTH of the Oregon losses...Auburn and Arizona St...BUT...last night was different...from the get go...the Duck line, both on O and D...were the dominant ones...BIG TIME!...the first that the Utes had been handled like this...

Had it not been for some careless offensive line penalties, the Ducks would have been up 4 td's by the first half...still, the difference was there...Utah made a push in the 3rd quarter, closing to an eight point margin...but the UO line took over...both sides...and the speedy RB Verdell took off for two more touchdowns and that was it...POOF!...went the plans of Utah...on the other hand, the scheduling for Oregon to plan their time in Pasadena is coming to fruition...the pundits?...ha ha, they are Green, with envy...

What you think, Snooki?...

Other...

The LaLa Lake Show came into PDX and had a field day...no match, kids...as LeBron and Davis made mockery of the showdown...scored at will, against the worst defensive coached team in the league...I kid you not...I saw this after the big Duckee win...gosh, this was embarrassing...can't give you enough adjectives that show my disgust...

On the home front, I am feeling much better...thank you...have NO idea what it was...fever and dizziness...took about a week...got to play some golf yesterday and was just fine...go figure...

Why would Guiliani be in the Ukraine...still?...are they just laughing at any semblance of rules of the constitution?...apparently...listen, I am not going to go on and on about this...get too upset...will just let this all play out and let the powers to be, return to control the fiasco...

Two times in the past week, there were shootings on American military bases...what?...one in Hawaii ( at Pearl Harbor, of all places...note the date) and one in Florida...makes you wonder...are we breaking down?...

Our tree has a couple of sets of lights...that can change colors, patterns, and direction...it is so cool...makes the nights so festive...tonight, will be more of the Green, with envy...ha ha...

Have no idea why Teerump wants to get into the flushing business...thinks that the US public is flushing too often...say what?...can't make this crap up...ha ha...

You know my penchant for teams firing their coach, instead of the GM...take the NY Knicks that have the worst talent in the NBA...they just fired the guy that a few seasons back, was going to turn them around...Fizdale...good lord...he had NO chance...that franchise is a MESS...

Tiger is 2 back in the Bahamas...think the blokes ahead of him, are looking back at him?...well, they will hear the crowd, if he gets it going...

Why not have a great weekend?...

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...

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.....

Hometown Baseball

You might think back to all the rivalries you have witnessed over the years...in high school, college, ah, well, team sports...shoot, could be choirs, math contests, and the like...BUT...the thrill of it all, is what I am talking about...I could name a hundred such things...that I recall...however, right now...there is one brewing in the Gaslamp...the Friars are hosting the Bums...believe it or not, this is new...you see, the Padres have been borderline pathetic for many seasons...not that they haven't had good ones...but, consistency has not been a virtue...things have changed...and the squad has deepened... The Bums have long had their nemesis, and or rivalry cat, as the San Francisco Giants...no mas...it is the Friars...the team that knocked them outta the playoffs last year...and here they come, to make avenge...3 games this weekend over at Petco...they have been playing super lately...really really super...the Pads?...hit and miss...my guess, is that the juices will flow for b...
