CRAZY HORSE

We have been looking forward to this for about 2 months... Snooki (PNW invader) and I have tix to the UO / USC barnburner (egads, hope not literally) up in LaLa Land, at the Coliseum...great seats, I think...which cost us double the face value...wonder what I would pay for them now, if I might have waited?...oh well...what's done is done... 71* at tip off...5 pm ...shall be just fine... The winner of it, has some very nice benefits a coming...if the Ducks, they are skating to the Pac 12 Champ game...if the Trojans, they are going to be on the footsteps of Utah in the south...it's why you play the games, kids... Watched the Lake Show and the Mavs hoop game out of Dallas on the tele last eve... an abomination of coaching at the end, paved the way for the Lakers to hit a 3 ball, to tie it up at the buzzer. ..send it to OT, and the purple and gold prevailed...is it just me, or is the level of teaching in the bigs, fallen off to such a level that it is dreadful? ...good l...

Talk about your Halloween! ...what started as a mild, easy going, nothing to talk about evening...turned into a mini-party at the zoo...what?...let's just say, that having Sean Spicer in our presence created quite a ruckus ...well, not the real one, but the reasonable facsimile... Had a happy hour at Eddie V's ...which, my good friends, was quite nice, indeed...free from the incumbrance of a booth...and a waitress who recognized me for my blog...shout out to Patty for not only remembering us, but for reading the Horse...anyhoo...fun...and might tasty treats... The mighty Padres ...I am reserving judgment on the recent hire as Manager...a 38 yr old...let's see how it plays out...figure that if it doesn't, out goes the GM A J too...the brass said they were looking for a vet...hmmm, and there were a lot of qualified blokes available...so, hang on to your new brown SD cap and feel the good vibes...at least, hope for them.... The line for the UO /USC game is held s...

Don't tell me that October is already gone ...don't do it...we must have one more day ...just one more...OK, then, so it is...let's call it Halloween! ...ah ha... dress in clothes that we don't normally wear...put on makeup to look like...someone else...and then traipse about that the paparazzi takes some pix of us ...yes, that is it...as you can see, this is us in years past...nope, there was no paparazzi where we were....so, I will post my own... The Nats are the champs!...the World Series ...and to answer my Q from yesterday... this is the very first time EVER that the visitors have won all the games thru the first 6...now, 7!!!. ..the MVP, is the SDSU product, and star P, Stephen Strasberg ...5-0 thru all the playoffs, and 2-0 in the WS...hey, he won a brand new Chevy...their latest Corvette ...us oldies, used to call them 'vettes...ha ha...vets...really...congrats to him and them... momentum is quite the deal in sports...and politics... The vote toda...

You want your high drama in sports? ...you got it...as the visitors WON again!... the Nats beat the Astros in Texas ...and Verlander...wooah be to that young man ...got dinged twice in the 5th...ah, just sets up a grand day for beisbol, don't you think?...that be this evening...I know I should Google this, but has a series ever gone on, with the visiting teams winning EVERY game?... Not so often in the game ANYMORE is the manager/umpire brouhaha ...where the captain gets heated about a 'blown' call. ..come running out of the dugout and screams in the ump's face...eventually, to get thrown out of the game.. .kicking dirt, shouting obscenities, spit comes out gnarly during the rampage.. .well now...it happened last night...even though 'instant replay' has pretty much shelved the spectacle... And it happened over the rule that bewilders me...always has...that a runner going down the 1st base line ... has to veer off the direct line. .. run to the right ...

Seemingly lost in the news sources throughout this land, shoot, this World...is the whereabouts of the newbie aircraft that was supposed to replace old flying machines...the Boeing Max 737's ... after two horrific crashes and loss of lives. ..which terrified the people...and those who decide whether or not they shall be in the sky... the Maxes were grounded ...a number of reasons for that, emerged...there was a patch that the pilots should have been aware of...was the most damning piece of info, that was released to the public...like, who really knows?... a software glitch , so it is said... So, they have been sitting...somewhere ... Southwest Air invested in a bunch of 'em...awaiting the cure needed, to use them again...what have we heard?...not much...somehow, there is a movement to get them back up and running before THIS year is done. ..what?...we have just two months left...ah, check out the type of airplane you are scheduled to ride prior to buying that ticket, kid...

BREAKING NEWS... the House of Reps will vote THURSDAY as to move on...to the impeachment process...on to PUBLIC hearings ... Morning, kids ...as we start up another week of fun and festivities... culminating with a jaunt up to LaLa Land for the Duck/Trojan game ...that is, if the fires get contained...another has erupted just west of the 405...ah, the highway we need to take to get to Memorial Stadium...obviously, we will keep a close eye out on this latest situation...I keep telling' ya, it is brittle down here in SoCal... My blog title of 'reality' isn't that, when it comes to the party scene of Halloween ...where the peops dress and disguise themselves in what they are not...huh?...if you have the scratch, you can get yourself made up like well... just don't go blackface ...over the years, we have done ourselves quite nicely...thank you...here at the zoo, there is a function...but, we have our PNW amigo arriving that day...not sure if he wants to be the ...

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 wron...
