The Hoops World




These Final 4 games in the D-1...are awesome to watch
...the ladies were first up last eve...in Minnnneeesota...no brag, just fact...the Horse is on a roll, picking winners...is this like 12 in a row?...something like that...just like donny, I can make up whatever I want, repeat myself over and over...and over...and soon you will believe it to be a fact...South Carolina won game 1...I said in a rout...not so, as Louisville did put up a valiant struggle...but the 'Gamecocks' bigs were too much for the Cardinals...Game 2...was a beaut...with my cinderella team from the get go, UConn, won again...beating Stanford...who had the case of the jitters...clang clang clang...yet, the match was even...with a game so close...the Stanford brass made a huge mistake...with about 1:23 to go, they went into the foul game...free throws...UConn responded by only missing ONE, after the game was settled in the final seconds...whew...still, very fun to watch...so, on Sunday, for the crown...USC vs UConn...you KNOW who I have...

The gentlemen are next today...game 1...Kansas vs Villanova...can the easterners control the tempo?...they are dead eyes from the line...BUT, I think the Jayhawks have way too many weapons...and will get this one...game 2...the vahsity game...ha ha...Coach K's Duke vs the arch rival, North Carolina...if you listen to the pundits, you would think that the Blue Devils in a laugher...come on...the Tar Heels just beat 'em at Duke...easily...and are dawgs by 4 points...what?...what do the Vegas Boyz know?...this is the game that I might miss...but, I have UNC...and for sure, if I were in Vegas, I'd take the points, too...BUT, I am pulling for Coach K to coach one more game...

In the NBA, the LaLa Lakers could finally be done...cooked...burnt to a crisp...as LeBron missed a jumper at the buzzer, and the team that they are vying with to get into the play in game...the Norleans Pelicans won...BTW, he junked up an air ball...a closer he has never been...still...the GOAT?...give me a break...there are 10 better players than him over time...don't get me wrong...he has been really good, just not the best...

Hey, I have talked lots of hoops this morning...youse who don't like that, well, just skip this part...ha ha...

Well what about beisbol?...rumors abound that AJ traded Hosmer in the middle of the night...Padre news...this is after April fools, but our foo is still a working...apparently...have heard no confirmation and for whom...how about that for a teaser?...this is what I am hearing...the Sheriff and Hosmer for Dom Smith of the Mets...

Putin has ordered his troops to withdraw out of the Kyiv...move elsewhere...why?...they met their match...another of them bloody rumors...is that the Russians had 7 Generals killed in action...7!...I think through out the entire WWII, we lost 2...well, 2 too many...

How about this?...Sarah Palin, as one columnist tabbed her 'Madam Grizzly', is running for Congress in Alaska...terrific fodder for the blog, don't you think?...I will do my dangest in trying to keep up with that campaign...

Will Smith...'the Slap'...has resigned from the Academy...the Oscars...hmmm...my guess, he is trying as hard as he can to keep his Oscar...do whatever now...hey, and the aftermath, has some carryover to the Bums (the hated Los Angeles Dodgers) catcher...he has been getting hate mail, cuz of the actor...his name?...Will Smith, too...maybe he should just go ahead and slap Kershaw, and finish the act...

Just when you thought that maybe, just maybe, the Republicans have come to their senses and x-d out trump...along comes another rumor...that they are propping up the odious Guv from Florida, as their new candy man...Ronny DeSantis...here we go again...GAY...

Our old stomping grounds in Salem, Oregon...like specifically Keizer...held a meeting...er, revival, for the forevers...they called it 'Rewaken America'...their featured speaker was none other than Mike Flynn...check his past out...they originally were to meet in Redmond, Oregon, but got the heave ho from there...as one sign proudly was displayed 'Welcome to K-K-Keizer'...oh my...

Woke up to some light (gulp) rain this am...hey, kids, we are feeling fine now...took an extra day for the Moderna to run through our system...as Snooki says, 'it is working'...perhaps...

We look at our docket and we have nothing today...weird, as we have been busy busy...did see that down at the Waterfront, Blake Shelton is playing for some sort of festival...maybe we can saunter on down and listen from afar...must be a country fest...

Paige Spiranac...you know her...the gal who swings the golf club, with provocative clothing...just got a divorce and claiming she has a life change...she was married?...and duh, if you get a divorce, there will be a life change...SDSU product, I think....that sounded bad...SDSU student...shoot, I dunno...graduate?...er, alumni?...

If true...the Putins war force...retreated, but not before planting booby trapped land mines in their paths...nothing worse than this...this is a bad man, all...Kremlin, do what you want to do...

Maui...there you go...bringing smiles all about...thing is, the hotel we frequent there...is charging like 5 to 6 bills per nite!...at least double...needless to say, the desert is just fine to get away and do the heat thang...

Think about this for just a second...if you get minimum wage...$15 an hour...that's $120 a day, before TAXES...and you fill up your car's tank with petrol...at $6 a gallon...which INCLUDES taxes...15 gallon tank, costs you $90...you MIGHT break even for the day, ah, after TAXES...just getting gas...

We live in crazy times, kids...

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...
