leave it up to the rain...

when i was watching tv last night and these flood warnings started popping up, i was like what the fuck... i went to look outside and nothing was going on. well, when i woke up at 7 this morning and every part of my body was stiff (sick minds), i knew it had to have rained overnight. sure enough, everything outside looked that extra deep shade of green when something in the summer becomes waterlogged. hopefully the sun comes out at some point today, mostly because i'd like to know if the cheap ass solar lights we got yesterday actually work or not.

outside of the sadness from last night's Yankees game (click here for the report on a fan falling to his death), i was very happy to see Severino pitch so well once again. he's definitely turning into a pitcher the team can rely on down the stretch. the offense provided just enough and the bullpen shut the door late. 3-1 win to stay 1 1/2 games behind Toronto in the division. they go for the sweep this afternoon.

ROH was excellent last night. i know it really was as i was tired as fuck and it kept me up for the entire hour. i especially liked Cheeseburger winning and the main event was great. next week should be even better.

alright kids, time for some music:

and now some of this and that:

Manchester United plays Swansea today. seeing that they lost to them twice last season, hopefully today is a bit of revenge.

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Ray Donovan, Masters of Sex and The Strain.

i might watch a bit of the New Orleans Saints today. i'm not a big fan of the NFL preseason, but since my fantasy draft is fast approaching, i need to watch in case of injuries.

other than that, today will be mostly soccer, resting, helping around the house and hopefully enjoying multiple victory beers.

i hope everyone is having a great weekend. plenty of time left to save it in case yesterday was one for the shitter. besides, a good Sunday usually involves getting drunk and pissing off someone. at least that's how i remember my 20's.

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...
