the New York Knicks lost last night at home to Chicago, 118-117.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both really good last night.

AEW Rampage was excellent last night.

the final two episodes of Random Acts of Flyness were amazing last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight.

the New Orleans Saints play today at Cleveland. i'd love to see the Saints win but i won't be shocked if they find a way to lose today.

i'm sure i will watch plenty of football today.

i might even venture down to the mailbox and see if anything has been delivered. it has warmed up some today. it is a balmy 5 degrees outside.

i will probably be on here tomorrow in the morning.

i hope everyone has a great Christmas Eve.

until tomorrow kids...

happy Christmas Eve...

 i think it rained most of the night. i tossed and turned for most of it. it tried to snow today, but i don't think much stuck on the ground.

i did watch some NBA games last night. i was fucking stunned that Sacramento won in Denver, that's for sure.

NXT was excellent last night.

AEW was very good last night.

i managed to get all my 91 Fleer cards into pages last night. i only had a few pages of 91 Fleer before i got that box. now, i have close to a full binder of them. this afternoon, i managed to get those 91 Classic minor league cards together with all my other minor league cards. i do like that i feel like i am much better organized these days with my cards.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight. i watched NXT UK this afternoon. it was a look back on the best of for 2020.

i should be on here in the morning tomorrow. i have a little surprise for everyone and then i'll do a quick blog, you know with sweet wishes and all that bullshit.

i have no clue what my sister has planned for this evening. she mentioned something about decorating cookies and some other shit. looks like i might as well get drunk tonight.

i hope everyone has a great Christmas Eve. hopefully you are safely enjoying your loved ones and the weather is fine wherever you may be.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

wear your mask.

the perfect day for back pain...

my back tightened up this morning and after a few hours on ice, it isn't any better. so yeah, just fucking perfect for Christmas Eve.

the Dayton Flyers won last night over Grambling State, 81-53. Ibi Watson scored a career high 30 points in his first start of the season. he was replacing an injured Jalen Crutcher, sitting out because of concussion protocol. thank god Dayton is much deeper this season than previous years.

i wrote 10 poems yesterday while mom was doing physical therapy. i think that puts me at over 50 for the month. not too shabby.

when i got home from the basketball game last night, i saw the New York Rangers score and decided i didn't need to watch the highlights. they lost to Philadelphia, 5-1.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.

i didn't watch much of the NFL game last night. of course, the fucking Vikings spit the bit, losing to the Packers, 23-10. it's most likely the Saints are going to end up the 3 seed in the NFC playoffs. if that happens, they will play the Vikings in the playoffs in New Orleans.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be WWE Backstage.

i guess my sister is coming down way earlier than mom and i expected. i'm pretty sure given the pain i am in, i'm going to have to bite my tongue quite a bit for the next 48 hours or so.

i'm pretty surprised mom hasn't had me go out and get something today. maybe she didn't forget anything for her recipes this year.

i hope everyone has a great Christmas Eve.

i will be on here probably pretty early tomorrow. i don't expect anyone to need to read this blog on Christmas day. although, i'm more than happy if anyone decides to do so.

if i get a wild hair up my ass, i might have a little Christmas gift for everyone tomorrow.

that's all for me kids. until tomorrow...

espero que santa te traiga algo lindo

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:

these are the days my 8 year old self was trying to warn me about

it was actually pretty warm this morning, nearly 50 degrees. of course, it was also really damp and just nasty out. i figured i better take advantage and get the damn Christmas lights down. they are saying we're going to get snow by tomorrow night. sure, why not. i also made sure to feed the birds as i figured they will panic if it does snow.

then my clusterfuck afternoon could begin. first up was Manchester United. i was really hoping that the last game was a sign that they had turned the corner and was going to play attractive attacking football/soccer from now on. fuck me, i was wrong. in one of the most boring games of this season, and that's saying something given how fucking boring they have been this season, United went to stoppage time at 0-0. unbelievably, a defender from Sheffield United took down Memphis in the box and Manchester United was given a chance to win that they absolutely did not deserve. don't get me wrong, it was a penalty kick for sure, but the boys didn't do a fucking positive thing in this game. Wayne Rooney buried the pk and Manchester United moves on to the 4th round of the FA Cup. thank god there won't be a replay of this boring ass game.

next up was the New York Rangers. they were trailing Washington by 2 goals going into the 3rd period. i was very happy to see the Rangers show a little fucking pride and score 3 goals to take the lead in the 3rd. and then with 5 seconds left, Washington tied the game. ok, shit happens. at least they will get a point out of the game. the Rangers had a glorious chance to win in OT, but Holtby made a save on Stepan and of course, that fucking asshole Ovechkin took it the length of the ice to score the game winner. well, at least he won't score his 500th goal against us. Rangers lose 4-3.

and that brings me to the Dayton Flyers. Dayton was up early on LaSalle 13-4 and i was thinking good, the boys are on a mission in this game. fuck me, i was wrong again. Dayton missed shot after shot and crumbled down the stretch. i guess the curse of being ranked strikes again. Dayton loses at LaSalle (who was 4-8 by the way, 7 straight losses) 61-57.

needless to say, i'm going to be fucking pissed for the rest of the day and probably the rest of the fucking weekend now.

enjoy some music kids:

and now some of this and that:

tonight on the DVR will be Austin City Limits and ROH.

i did watch Undateable last night. it was fucking hilarious.

not sure if i'm going to watch playoff football the rest of the day or watch Lemmy's funeral on YouTube. they are streaming his funeral service, which is incredibly cool.

i will be on here sometime tomorrow morning probably, as i figure i have a ton of laundry and writing to do tomorrow. and if it does snow, i might have to break out the shovel. always fun for a bad back.

hope this finds everyone in a better mood than i am. it shouldn't be that hard.

goodbye to the ace of spades

i was scrolling around the internet last night and came across the news. it's not that i was shocked that Lemmy had died. god knows he has looked like death for the last 20 years. it's that i just never thought the fucker would go. one of the nicest humans ever and truly an inspiration to me the day i picked up a bass guitar. i remember the first time as a child i heard Ace of Spades. that was a song that never left my brain. born to lose live to win. thanks for giving all of us outsiders a place at the table.

i picked the NFL game right last night. i did end up getting 5th place in my NFL.com league. and it became official today, i did win both of my CBS Sports fantasy football leagues.

Monday Night Raw was ok last night, at best. i did enjoy The New Day, Kevin Owens beating the shit out of Neville and Dean Ambrose, but too much of the show was just pointless.

Breaking Ground on WWE Network was really good last night. it's amazing how just about everything with NXT is great and everything else could be so much better.

the New York Rangers played a decent 40 minutes last night. for some reason, in the third period they decided to shit the bed. a 1-1 game was suddenly 5-1 in a matter of minutes. i turned it off there as i have seen them lose too much already this season. the final score was 5-3, but the game with Nashville was never that close. they next play at Tampa on Wednesday. thank god i'll be at a basketball game.

here's some this and that for you:

not sure what i'm going to be watching on television tonight. i know i got a good nap in this afternoon watching some soccer. so i'll probably be up late.

that's all for me today. i need to get the trash picked up here and next door (my uncle is home by the way) and figure out what's for dinner.

i hope everyone is enjoying something. whatever that is is your business.
