a weekend i'd like to forget

this past weekend was one of those that i wish the artsy fartsy part of my brain would have been dominant when i was a child so i wouldn't have to go through a weekend where sports are life and death for me.

the New Orleans Saints for the first time in what feels like forever, got a great performance out of their defense. but, as it has been for the last decade or so, take them out of the dome, and the offense stinks. what makes it even worse, the Saints could have won if just a key few plays would have been executed correctly. instead, they lost 16-13 to the New York Giants on a field goal right as time expired.

the New York Yankees got up 4-0 last night. i chuckled. in all 4 games in Boston, they had the lead at some point. and just like clockwork, the lead vanished and so did any hope of them making the playoffs. Boston won 5-4 for their first 4 game sweep of the Yankees in Boston since 1990. the Yankees start a series down in that dump in Tampa tomorrow. i won't be watching.

i'm trailing in both of my fantasy football matches. one i have no chance to win, and that opponent didn't even start a whole team that was active yesterday. the other one, i have 2 players going tonight for the Eagles. i think i need to make up 14 points to get the victory. hopefully the game tonight of the Eagles vs. Bears will be a high scoring game.

the USA women's national soccer team won last night against the Netherlands. i'll be drinking for that one sometime tonight.

the season finale of Vice Principals last night was hilarious and then really fucking dark. and i mean dark, dark comedy. hopefully there will be a season 2. Ballers was excellent last night. that season finale next week looks like it should be crazy. the season finale of Ray Donovan was as crazy as the other seasons. Masters of Sex was pretty good last night. and finally, Power was really damn good last night. that season finale next week has the potential to be absolutely amazing.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, Gotham and The Big Bang Theory. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw and probably some of Monday Night football as well.

i did listen to the latest Sam & Cathy podcast today. you can find that by going here:

i spent most of my morning today watching this beautiful tree get cut down two doors down from us. i have no fucking clue why they cut it down. i can only guess the shade from it was blocking people from seeing the Donald Trump sign in the yard. i'm truly amazed at the number of dumb fucks i live around that think the country should be run like a reality show. of course, i can count the minorities in this town on one hand, so it's not that surprising.

i'll be on here tomorrow after taking mom to the chiropractor and mailing some poems at the post office.

i hope everyone had a great weekend, or at the very least, better than mine.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
