not exactly how i wanted the weekend to start off

so i got up this morning, checked my email (internet is still slower than shit), fed the animals and sprayed for insects inside and out of the house. got all that done in time to watch Manchester United play.

and then i sit down in my favorite chair and watch them lose 1-0 to a bunch of guys i have never heard of that all play in Thailand. not sure how i should take the first game of the David Moyes era. it was only a pre-season game, it was hot, not the whole team... or THEY LOST TO A BUNCH OF FUCKING NO NAMES IN THAILAND... i hate losing at any time. i will tuck this one away with a grain of salt. a good number of big names weren't there. but, there was easily enough talent to win the game. on the plus side, barely, the 2 kids looked pretty good. i'd like to see them get more of a shot in the coming games.

i'll be watching the Yankees play here in a bit. they won a rain soaked affair last night 2-0. Jeter didn't play as it was revealed he has a grade 1 quad strain. he's out until after the all star break. it never fails with this team.

and hopefully i will see a much better soccer game played when team USA plays Cuba this afternoon in the Gold Cup. it's on the FOX national network, so i'm guessing Gus Johnson will be calling it. it should be entertaining.

saw a great interview last night with Stone Cold Steve Austin. it was on AXS TV. i highly recommend it to anyone and everyone.

after all my sports today i get the feeling i will be helping my mother clean the house a bit. oh joy.

also, if the weather doesn't turn too shitty this weekend, i will hopefully take some pictures of a few things i saw while mowing the grass yesterday.

other than a little ROH this evening and maybe some Big Brother After Dark, i will be either catching up on sleep or writing until i'm bleary eyed.

until tomorrow...
