so, mom got a call yesterday that i don't think either one of us were expecting. my cousin's husband died yesterday morning. now, he wasn't in the greatest health to begin with, but dying in your early 60's isn't exactly the norm anymore. fuck, i can remember being in their wedding back in the 80's. those memories coming back yesterday was a bit of a mind fuck. but, i look at it like this... he's no longer in pain and the house isn't in his name. at least my cousin won't have to go through that nightmare. and, he chose cremation, so there isn't the need to spend a ton of money on a funeral. the absolutely shitty thing was yesterday was the birthday of their daughter. i can't imagine her pain and loss right now.
so, the friend i was hoping to meet up with yesterday didn't text me back until after 4 PM. i'm not sure what she had going on as she never texted me back after the initial text. i'm never sure why people will say yes to doing something and then never contact the person when something comes up, etc. i mean, i'm not a fucking asshole 100% of the time. i do understand that life gets in the fucking way sometimes. but when someone claims they want to be with you and the last two attempts have gone haywire and sideways, i can't help but wonder, what the fuck is really going on. and with my lack of self esteem, it is always going to come back to what is wrong with me. i will ask the peanut gallery to pipe down, that was rhetorical.
the New Orleans Saints won yesterday at home against Chicago, 24-17.
i did watch a few NFL games yesterday and last night.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:
Big Brother was good last night. the final 3 are Jag, Matt and Bowie Jane.
Power Book IV: Force was really good last night. the season finale is next week.
Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.
Shining Vale was fucking hilarious last night.
Fellow Travelers was excellent last night.

and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Voice and Monday Night Raw.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against SIU-Edwardsville. hopefully, they will win, easily.
i will probably watch some of the NFL game tonight between the Chargers and Jets.
i guess our kitchen remodel will be happening after Thanksgiving. so, now my main job is going to be controlling mom's anxiety with all this. wish me luck.
i hope everyone had a great weekend.
i should be on here tomorrow after mom has physical therapy.
until tomorrow kids...

today has been one of those days i could have just gone without. hopefully, that will change shortly.
let me start off with some good news i guess. Ohio State won yesterday at Northwestern, 21-7. the weather conditions were horrible to say the least. but, a win is a win.
WWE Crown Jewel was amazing yesterday.
i did watch some college football yesterday.
the MLS Cup finals yesterday were fucking nuts. that game had absolutely everything and was easily the best MLS game i think i have ever seen.
here are your highlights from the NBA last night:
here are your highlights from the World Series last night:
The Caverns Sessions last night were excellent.
Austin City Limits was great last night.
Saturday Night Live was hilarious last night.

the New York Rangers play at home in a little bit against the Red Wings. hopefully, the boys will find a way to win today.
i got up this morning and by the time i put the clean dishes away and made mom's coffee, Manchester United was losing 2-0 to Aston Villa. United would lose the game 3-1. i didn't watch any of it.
i went to Rite Aid to get a few things today. after that, i went to the local grocery store to get a few things. i think mom was pleasantly surprised i actually found a pizza that the sodium is at a level where she can have more than just one slice.
thank god the wind has fucking died down. i did pick the perfect day to get all the leaves off the back porch. they probably ended up about a mile away or so. i was shocked that all the bird feeders made it through the wind storm.
i will be on here early tomorrow as i have a crazy Monday in store for me. the Dayton Flyers begin their regular season tomorrow night. i truly hate college basketball games on Mondays. but, of course, i'll be going. the New Orleans Saints play tomorrow night as well.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.
until tomorrow kids...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
so, i got up this morning hopeful. and then i saw that a defender for Manchester United that i thought wasn't going to play today, was fit. my first thought was fuck, they are going to play a back 3 today and get killed. sure enough, Ole started a back 3 and went with a 3-5-2 formation. and much like i thought Manchester City would do, they pinned those 3 back and made it a back 5 and absolutely controlled the first half. an own goal and another goal right before the death of the first half, and United went into halftime down 2-0. now, Ole changed the formation out of halftime, but to be honest, he should have done that 10 minutes into the fucking game. United was listless in the second half and City simply put the game into cruise control and basically the second half put me to sleep. United lost 2-0. they go into the international break looking like a team that has no fucking clue how to play or any desire to play for their manager. i highly doubt Ole loses his job, as i can't see anyone out there that the idiotic owners of United would jump to replace him with. now, i know a certain manager at Tottenham or at PSG that i would love to see as United manager, but, as usual, the club sat on their fucking hands too long to have those coaches. i'm so fucking disappointed right now. but sadly, not surprised enough to actually be angry. 35 years ago Sir Alex was appointed the boss of Manchester United. you look at the club today, and you would never know he was ever there.
i was pretty happy last night when the New York Rangers were up 4-1. i also knew they were playing a very good Edmonton Oilers team that are deadly when given time and space. well, the Rangers pissed away that lead and lost again in OT, 6-5. they play tonight in Calgary.
Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night.
AEW Rampage was excellent last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was very good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live.
Ohio State plays at Nebraska today. i'm hoping the boys really put a hurting on Nebraska.
i'm sure i will watch some other college football games today while i am doing my laundry.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:
i should be on here in the morning tomorrow, before the New Orleans Saints play.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i thought Ohio State was going to have a tough game last night. little did i know that it was going to be their most dominant performance of the season. they whipped #10 Nebraska 62-3 last night. i really hope this is the breakout performance all of us have been waiting for. the defense scored 2 touchdowns last night, J.T. Barrett looked great again and they seemed to have finally realized that Curtis Samuel must touch the ball more than just a handful of times each game. i suppose i'll know for sure next week at Maryland.
i forgot to mention yesterday the update on mom. the doctor she saw on Friday was pretty straightforward with her. she needs a new hip and she needs back surgery. they recommended she gets the shots into her spine to help decrease the inflammation with her discs in her back, but that is only to buy them time to decide which surgery comes first. as he was telling her this, i was just thinking to myself how i wish she would have never put off her hip replacement. she's known she's needed it for more than 18 months now. so the first injection will be the Monday after Thanksgiving. oh joy, the holidays...
the New York Rangers defeated Boston last night, 5-2. they gave up the first goal once again last night but i am convinced now it doesn't matter. the Rangers remind me of the teams i grew up watching that would use their speed to force you to make mistakes. they scored 2 short handed goals last night and a power play goal as well. there's the difference in the game. they play again tonight at home against Winnipeg. hopefully they will get their fifth win in a row tonight.
Saturday Night Live was hilarious last night. from start to finish, i was laughing my ass off. do yourself a favor and go find the clips or watch the show, it's worth it.
ROH last night was really good. i'm interested to see how the new Kingdom works out.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Westworld, Divorce, Insecure, Last Week Tonight, Shameless and Masters of Sex.
the New Orleans Saints play out in San Francisco this afternoon. a win against the 49ers will put them back at .500 on the season. i really hope they take care of business against a team they should beat.
Manchester United got 2 goals from Zlatan Ibrahimovic and a screamer from Paul Pogba to defeat Swansea City today 3-1. other than the usual second half brain fart, it was a very good game for United. sadly, Zlatan picked up a yellow card, so he'll miss the next game against Arsenal. fuck. but, time for me to go enjoy a victory beer.
i turned back the clocks last night one hour like you're supposed to. i'm not sure we really need to do that any longer, but i know how this country holds on to shit much longer than we should. and honestly, turning the clock back 1 hour doesn't help a guy who doesn't sleep as it is.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully your Sunday will be even better.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
we had a cold front come through here last night. it rained all damn night. i wasn't able to ever truly get comfortable, so i didn't sleep worth a shit. and i had all this shit i wanted to get done today, after the people coming to clean our windows and gutters left. of course, this being my life, they haven't arrived yet. i'd love to get a haircut as these damn bangs are on my final nerve now. it's starting to look like that's going to happen tomorrow.
i'm in a very irritable cranky fucking mood right now. on top of everything, my stomach was churning most of the morning and i decided today was the not day i wanted to spend on the toilet. the problem being after i take 2 pills to stop me up and take away the pain, my next shit tomorrow will be horrific. now i think Monday's doctor's appointment is starting to get to me.
all the guys i had playing last night in fantasy football did pretty good. i picked the game right as well.
The Big Bang Theory was really good last night. i thought it was the best episode of the season so far. Life in Pieces was hilarious once again.
i'm going the lazy route once again for Flashback Friday. here is an old video of mine:
it kind of fits my day so far.
enjoy some music kids:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Undateable, NJPW and The Knick.
the New York Rangers start a quick 2 game road trip tonight in Colorado. hopefully they will get a win.
just heard that the people coming to clean the windows and gutters aren't coming today now. how i love sitting around all day for nothing. and people wonder why i always argued that at least junkies had ambition.
i will be on here tomorrow after the Dayton Flyers exhibition game. i'm going to that after watching the Manchester United game tomorrow morning. so i will try to squeeze in a blog when i get home, before the Rangers and Ohio State play. the joys of being a sports fan around this time of year. there's always something.
i did get a few laughs in today listening to Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast as well as his newest podcast of his evening show on Sirius/XM.
the wrestling podcast with Xavier Woods is excellent. Sam also did a special one regarding the Seth Rollins injury. we both have the same idea on what they should do for Survivor Series. both of these wrestling podcasts can be found on iTunes, Stitcher, notsam.com and on the right hand side of this blog.
the sex dream podcast will have you laughing your ass off.
that's all for me today kids. i'm going to take a shower and go find someplace to cut my fucking hair. or, i just shave it all off myself and start over. i suppose i could tell my uncle i'm beating him to the punch for what he'll look like with chemo.
somehow cancer always finds a way to enter the damn conversation. fuck me.

so, how do i sum up my busy ass day in less than 15 minutes. not sure...
last night was a good one. the New York Rangers finally played like the team i know them to be. a crisp 2-0 win over the Flyers. that was a sweet victory beer.
Lucha Underground was very good once again. i wish other "indies" would copy what they are doing.
American Horror Story was excellent last night. sadly, the show will not be seen again until December. damn holidays.
Metallica gave a GREAT performance last night on The Late Late Show...
i got up this morning feeling good. a few hours later, the Dayton Flyers made me feel better. the game was bowling shoe ugly. but, thankfully, Dayton is now full of guys that know how to win ugly. a nice 55-53 win over Texas A&M. they advance down in Puerto Rico to play UCONN tomorrow afternoon. that should be a good one. if they can pull off the upset in that, they'll be in the championship game. highlights below:
mom and i went out this afternoon to get all the shopping done. she's found out that with her disease, changes in temperatures really fuck with her. and since it's going to go from the single digits to the 50's this weekend, i figured we better get all the shopping done today. amazingly, we did. it didn't take long, mostly because i didn't allow my mother to stray from the plan. get in. get out. good times.
tonight i'm hoping to watch The Big Bang Theory and some football. i have a RB going in the game for my good fantasy team.
that's all for me today. i'll be on tomorrow after the Dayton game. the heating and air guy comes tomorrow to service the furnace. of course it would be the day after a night in the single digits.
hope everyone is warm. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.
