at least i didn't bet much...

 so, i got both NFL playoff games wrong yesterday. thank god i didn't bet much on either of them. i still adhere to my first rule of gambling, only wager what you are willing to lose. i did have a couple parlays hit, that saved me from not making anything yesterday. the Eagles beat the 49ers, 38-7. the Chiefs beat the Bengals, 23-20.

Your Honor was really good last night.

The Last of Us was fucking great last night.

here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw.

it has been raining and snowing all day long it seems. nothing really sticking or anything, just enough to get my arthritis raging. the pain got so bad that i put some ice on my back and slept or faded to black for a couple hours this afternoon.

i did listen to episode 432 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i have no damn clue what i'm making for dinner tonight. i'm hoping the chicken i took out of the freezer has thawed or i might be making a trip into town...

not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. we started moving the living room around, so i'm guessing that will be a major part of tomorrow.

until then kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay off the fucking streets.

get the fucking shot.

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

a few surprises, but nothing surprising...

 mom and i decided to get pizza and wings last night from Pizza Hut before the Royal Rumble. it was the first time she had a really good amount of protein since she had her surgery. i thought the Royal Rumble was pretty good last night. it is kind of funny to think that the best guy in the men's Royal Rumble match was Bad Bunny. i did like Paul Heyman turning on Brock Lesnar. that sets up what should be a really good WrestleMania main event. this Roman Reigns and babyface Brock Lesnar haven't faced each other at the event before. i'm going to guess this will be their best match. all in all, i'm looking forward to the road to WrestleMania.

Saturday Night Live was very funny last night.

i did go to Menards yesterday. it was more packed than normal. now i remember why i rarely ever shop on the weekends. i did find everything i was looking for. and with the rebates i had, i got everything for under $60. 

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Power Book II: Ghost, Billions, Euphoria, The Righteous Gemstones and Somebody Somewhere.

the New York Rangers play at home this afternoon against Seattle. the Rangers need to end this losing streak today.

USMNT plays at Canada today. i'm hoping the USA finds a way to get 3 points out of this cold ass match today.

the conference championship games are today in the NFL playoffs. the Bengals play at the Chiefs. and the 49ers play at the Rams. i'm hoping both games are really good today.

i need to go get the paper and feed the birds, so that's all for me today kids.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the fucking shot.

welcome to a cold morning...

 it was somewhere around 20 degrees when i went out to get the paper and feed the birds this morning. i figured i better get some food out there before it snows. 

Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night. i can't wait for the Royal Rumble this weekend.

Real Time with Bill Maher last night was excellent.

Painting with John was hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be WWE Backstage, ROH, Austin City Limits and Saturday Night Live.

Manchester United plays Arsenal today. given that United lost their last game, this pretty much becomes a MUST WIN game if they want to truly have a shot at the Premier League title this season.

the Dayton Flyers play today at home against Rhode Island. hopefully, they will keep up the momentum from their victory at Saint Louis.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Pittsburgh. hopefully, they can win a second game in a row tonight.

hopefully, i'll have 3 victory drinks tonight.

i'm not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. if we do get all the snow they are predicting, i'll be on here sometime after i get the chili on.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

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.

looks like hell is frozen...

i haven't even bothered attempting to go outside yet. when i woke up this morning it was -7 degrees with a windchill around -40 or so. mom already cancelled her doctor's appointment, not so much for the cold but that injection still has her in a funk. i figured i would get this done before i put on 4 or 5 layers and see if they picked up the trash or the mail and/or paper was delivered. good times.

the Dayton Flyers won last night over Saint Joe's, 75-64.

the New York Rangers lost last night, 1-0 to Philadelphia. oh well.

Smackdown was pretty good last night, but could have been much, much better.

205 Live was pretty good last night as well.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Masked Singer, Celebrity Big Brother, You're The Worst and Drop the Mic. i'll watch NXT UK and NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i had an interesting conversation late last night with a former adult film star. at least, that's who she said she was. i'm taking it with a grain of salt, that's for sure. but, i'm pretty sure there will be poems.

i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

i'm getting ready to go outside now and hopefully be back inside within 10 damn minutes.

wish me luck kids...

until tomorrow...

last night took a few years off my life...

the problem with being a passionate sports fan is you will have nights where not only does your heart get broken, it gets ripped out, trampled on, and then smothered in shit.

last night was one of those nights.

but, before i get to that, let me get the poetry news out of the way. i sent out 8 poems today; 3 to Dead Snakes and 5 to Your One Phone Call. when i hear back from these places i will pass on the verdict.

The Big Bang Theory was good last night. thankfully, it gave me a little laughter in a night of frustration and yelling.

the Dayton Flyers lost at UMass last night, 66-64. they missed way too many free throws and 3's in this game. just make a few more and they win this easy. my fear is they are running on fumes from having only 7 players basically. their next game is on Sunday at home, which mother nature might be forcing me to miss. more on that later.

the New York Rangers lost to Montreal last night, 1-0. King Henrik gave up a soft goal late in the 3rd that was the difference. my hope is a shitty Carolina team is the cure for the sudden lack of goal scoring since the All-Star break. that game is tomorrow night.

both of those games finished before 10 last night. for about 90 minutes after the games, i simply played music and fumed while on the computer. i'm pretty sure last night took a few years out of me. i'm also sure, in my younger days, i would have been breaking shit.

so i guess i have matured.

mom and i went out today to get some paint samples for the new house. i think the colors she picked out are going to work. we also had to get some cat food and bird food. i figured it was best to get it now with the impending weather.

the snow is supposed to start late Saturday night. it's supposed to end sometime on Sunday night, Super Bowl Sunday. i've seen that we might end up with 4 to 7 inches, and i've also seen that we might end up with a foot of snow. needless to say, any amount over 4 and i'm pretty much snowed in for the weekend. so, we got most of the mad scrambling done before tomorrow morning comes. most of the procrastinators around here didn't.

if we do get a ton of snow, i'll try to get some pictures to post on here.

i'm not sure what i'm going to be watching tonight. maybe some pro wrestling, maybe some Food Network, maybe some Treehouse Masters, maybe nothing at all.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after the Manchester United game. hopefully they will give me the chance to have a victory beer.

i guess being a disciplined alcoholic is my real problem.

i hope everyone has a great weekend. i hope the weather is better where you are. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

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...
