Let's Talk Baseball

The opening games...the 2 that have gotten much of the notoriety, the Yankees and the Bums...did NOT disappoint their believers...as they both won...as Dr Fauci opened it all, with the 'first pitch' in DC...let's say, it is not his forte...ha ha...

The NY Yankees...loaded...the biggest lineup I can recall...and I mean the bulk of the bods of these guys...fear is what I hear...and yes, I think they are the team to beat in the AL...oh my...add the pitching that they have, well...turn out the lights...

The Bums...their ace was a late scratch, Kershaw, and is out for a bit...but, they just reload...they pounded the hapless 'new look' Giants...who are absolutely awful...made so many mistakes, that they did NOT resemble a MLB team...that bad...back to LA, the addition of Mookie makes them even better...duh...as above, the team to beat in this half of the league...the NL...

The rest of the league gets going, starting today...which means we are in the spotlight...the mighty Padres host the DBacks, and their new addition, MadBum...terrific test for the locals...we have the Sheriff on the hill...yes, there is lots of promise out there...and, we shall see...we have our version of the 'cutouts' in the seats, too...see, LaLa, we can do that, too...

PLAY BALL!...

Huge Orange got his wish...to throw out a first pitch...will be in NY next month...if they let him back in the city...Jared, where is my glove?...

We watched a flick starring Dianne Lane last eve...a journey to Paris...kind of OK...Marsh liked it...'Paris Can Wait'...nice scenery...she is a great actress...well, there you go...

Been listening to Taylor Swift's new album...'Folklore'...ah, must be my mood...but, it drags on...it is called 'alternative', for it's genre...

The Skins...ah, the Washington 'Redskins' are changing to...drum roll please...the Washington Football Club...ah, what?...'they' need more time to decide the nickname...er, mascot...well, whatever...

Disturbing, deplorable, despicable, can I think of other D words?...that describe Donny's Tweet of how delighted he was, with his storm troopers delivering a 'blow' to the Portland, Oregon Mayor...now THIS is worthy of removal from office...

It is said that Natalie Portman, can speak 5 languages...OK...the Horse can speak 3, if you count pig latin...latin?...

The Republicans, well, Trump, has canceled his, er, their, convention set for Florida this next month...something about Covid...

Snooki's song of the day...'Reunited' by Peaches and Herb...'and it feels so good'...the duet return...did they have another song?...hmmm, that used to be a popular name for the era...Herb...like in Herb Score...one of my fav pitchers back in the day...Peaches?...not sure if I knew anyone really named that...

'Morning Joe', out of MSNBC...has proclaimed the margin of Biden's lead over Orange, 'STUNNING!'...13 points and RISING...Donny hates him...Jared, get on the phone, and get our own poll out...

On our run to Costco...one thing is still missing...get this...sanitary wipes!...GONE!...try to find them on the web net, too...ah, what?...

Friday already?...

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...
