The Mueller Report Completed

Image
It took TWO years of fact-finding for the infamous Mueller Report to be completed and now... delivered to the USA Attorney General, William Barr. ..now, it is UP to him as to what to do with it... he could throw it in the round file, if he so desires. ..ha ha...not...he has revealed that he will release what he wants to, as soon as this weekend ...I find it odd, that there isn't much fanfare over it... Sarah Huckabee Sanders has reassured the Nation, that the White House had no prior knowledge to its findings. ..as only Barr has the scoop, I reckon...right?...you believe that?...there have been conjectures from the Demos and the Repubs as to what is and is not in the Report...the Republicans in near pandemonium as they are saying 'see, no collusion!'... Sarah's God fearing daddy, Mike, even went the Tweet route to condemn the 'Fake News' channels and the major newspaper outlets, and the House Judiciary guys as to their unfounded witch hunt ...hmmm, this ...

Friday Finds

Say hey, how is your bracket NOW? ...ha ha... if you went by script, probably OK ...the one thing that sticks out to moi, is that the pundits who screamed that the Big 14 was a strong conference...were right. ..which makes me cringe about the Ducks playing one of them in Wisconsin...ew...whatever...remember when that was used ALL the time?... 'whatever' ...certainly not as often, earlier in time, as 'groovy' ...but, still...I digress... Gonzaga looked in prime form...as did Kentucky and Kansas ...the kid from Murray St is a bonafide star in the making...on this level and the next... Wofford? ...have no clue even where that school is...and, my guess is, that the Hollywood star didn't try to get her daughter into there...just a hunch...today, let's just see what is in the cards for Virginia...and UNC...and, of course, them Ducks... Pros...the Warriors looked absolutely awesome last eve...hosting the 3rd or 4th ranked team out of the east, Indy...really...w...

Coffee Chatter

You MUST have your brackets filled out by now...well, you HAVE to, if you are in a pool...and the play in games are done...the field is now set for 64 teams, that wanna be the CHAMPS! ...saw a Vegas thinger, that had the Duke Blue Devils as the overwhelming fav at 24% ...in facto, the teams that I have chosen as the top 8, er, the elite eight...are those teams that are mentioned...today, it starts up...the upsets, the one and done... it's cool, albeit there are too many teams...ha ha...and you do know, they were NOT my pick... The gals hoops are in motion as well... UO and OSU have nice seeds...and are playing their first games AT HOME ...how convenient...in lieu of arenas of who knows where...ah, no home team advantage...I did see that the perennial champ, or runner-up, to it all, UConn , is a 2nd seed...wowser... watch for them in upset mode ... Staying in hoops... NBA ...the playoffs loom...teams are jockeying for making 'em...and what place they may end up...wa...

Clowning Around

Image
See the funny little clowns ...not sure if you all are with me on this, but the CLOWNS terrified me more than humored me...I dug the 'leaving me alone' thing, more than embarrassing moi...get that same feeling when I go to a ball park, and the bloody mascot stops and rubs my head... But, put the concept of acting like a clown in REAL life ...well, somehow that changes it all up...it's really an easy way of describing what some people are...or resemble...and then, we have real meaning to the name... Like... when a President calls someone a slang term...in a Tweet ...one of his own people's husbands...you KNOW I am talking about George Conway ...the hubby of Kellyanne Conway...Trump's greatest speaking ally... 'a total loser' ...at what point in time might a person think this is not normal?... clown like? ...imagine what the rest of the World ponders about him... Which brings me to POLLS ...that emerge every so often, to give a glimpse of what the ...

The Pix

Morning, kids...the cold is on it's way out...hip hip...48 hours?...fingers crossed...as I spent way too many moments watching the pixels...grabbed some stats that were surprising...then, tried to justify why... watched the latest version of Idol ...and some hoops , for sure...there you go...and here I go... For all of my cynicism of the D-1 Big Dance...the March Madness , I must throw out my pix to ya, anyhoo...there are upsets to be had...as the inevitable ones are out there...yes, I will not get them...I peak at the Vegas dudes , and wonder why they feel the way  they do...so...and I don't know if Marsh's office is doing a pool...haven't heard, yet...which would save me some scratch...ha ha... but, I will give  you my final 4... In the east, I have who many do, Duke ...in the South, it is Tennessee ...in the Midwest, it is North Carolina ...and in the West, I have Michigan ...with the champ to be the Tar Heels ...yea, so there are doubts that linger... Gonzag...

Let The Games Begin

How about forgetting how they got there ...the elite hoopsters in the colleges...that will inhabit the campuses for but one year, then bolt on up to the NBA...but, represent a school in the Big Dance , as it is called...with all the hoopla about 'illegal' ways of kids to get into the prestiges colleges or universities , the track of the athlete is sort of put on the back side...nobody is talking about that...too much money at stake, I guess... What is the number of classes these players attend?...if it all?...must be a lot of PE ones...and, or coaching theory...math?...I doubt it...English?...naw...anthropology?...ah, fuggit about it... they are there to play basketball ...accept it and that's the way it is...for now... The amount of teams in the tourney...at 68 ...how many of them have a chance at winning?...OK, every year is different...but, not too much... it will drastically change if the NBA allows high school grads to skip college and go right into the Pros .....

St Patrick's Day

Cheers to you all, you blimeys ...something like that...this be the celebration date of the passing of Saint Patrick ...like in the 400's...really...talk about a festivity that has tested the length of time...which has turned into a good natured day of fun... wear your green, or get pinched ...I didn't, so I would...just kidding...many of the Irish heritage take this time, very seriously...the rest of us...just join in... drink some green beer, and eat some cabbage and sausages ...there is even a bloke who changes a river in Chicago, to green...ah, the celebratory phenomena...just thinking, we should have such a day for the passing of Crazy Horse...turn the color of the San Diego River, red. ..hmmm, maybe not, not such a good look...I digress...regardless, let's enjoy ST PATRICK'S DAY! ... Speaking of green ...out of nowhere came the Ducks ...to win the Pac 12 T in Vegas ...totally throttling the Dawgs...as UO has turned it ON at the end of the regular season...q...
