The Irony



Must lead with the NBA finals playoff...as the Boston Celtics went into Dallas, and got game number 3...no one, no team ever...in the history of the NBA, has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit...and won the championship...that being said...let's get into the game...it was a game of surges...the Mavs starting quickly...then the Celts...and in the 3rd stanza, it appeared that Boston had wrapped up the game, up by 21...and breezing...the Mavs closed back and it was a nail biter...THEN, Dr Flop, er Luka Doncic, took his team out of it...falling on 2 straight possession, tryin to flop his way to the FT line...in lieu, gave up 2 easy buckets...what is more taxing on the Mavs...he FOULED OUT with 4 minutes to go...listen, kids...for that to happen...for a guy who doesn't play a bit of defense...is truly amazing...he is a statue on D...to compare him to the Beard, that makes Hardin an all star defensive player...yup, he is that bad...THE IRONY of Luka fouling out...ah, playing defense?...

'Coaching'...this style of play is candidly 'the worst'...perhaps, a quick screen, then dribble...dribble...dribble...then, dribble some more...and chuck up a step back 3 ball...as all else on the floor...stands and watches...oh yea, and why...was Luka on the floor with 5 fouls?...it is a relatively simple thing this coach must do...and he failed...as did his team...'Coach' Kidd...

BTW, I thought that the NBA said that 'flopping' was a foul?...

As Dandy Don would sing 'turn out the lights, the party is over!'...

Guess the Horse is a sports junkie today...as the Friars swept the Homeless A's...with another game winning home run, in the bottom of the 9th!...this time, the 20 yr old CF, Jackson Merrill, hit his 2nd of the game...must mention the SP, Michael King, struck out 12 in 5 innings...and now, the flight to NY, to take on the Mets for a set....

And the Pros are in North Carolina at Pinehurst #2...they could have 10, and I wouldn't know...never been there....alas, it is the US Open...wonder who will finish 2nd to Scottie?...Tiger is in the field...

Pivoting...(BTW, does any pro ever pivot anymore?)...

Your guy trump...must have been reading a French comic book...as he bellowed out, to his faithful at another revival 'bring back the guillotine!'...hmmm, not a bad idea, Bozo...wait...can I say that?...his words, not mine...

Kinda pumped this am...down 15...and...the TV goes up today, if it all goes as planned...

Taking us back to 1962....oh my, here we go again...Russian ships cruising into the harbors of Cuba...right now, kids...right now...stay tuned to this story...you may have to watch the TV NEWS...even YOU, you forevers...

The passing of the legendary hoop star, Mr Clutch, Jerry West...at 86 years of age...for me, he had one of the purest shooting forms in the game...along with Bill Bradley, Geoff Petrie, and the Big O...

We finally are going all digital when it comes to the Trib...the local SD rag...no more paper at the door...we did subscribe via the web net...so there you go...considerably cheaper this way...and as you know, we are on a fixed income...

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...
