smash and grab

i woke up this morning, tired as hell, ready to watch Manchester United take on Liverpool. United started off good, but as usual for this season, they settled back into mediocrity. they were getting killed in the midfield. thankfully, it was 0-0 at half. United started the second half in the same funk and thankfully, David de Gea saved their ass with some brilliant saves. where the fuck would this team be without him? and then, out of nowhere, a header off the crossbar and holy shit, Wayne Rooney drills a volley home for his first goal at Liverpool in a fucking decade. talk about stealing a game you truly had no business winning. when it comes to beating Liverpool, i'll take that every fucking time. hopefully this is the game that saves the fucking season.

the New York Rangers got my Saturday off to a good start, winning in Philadelphia 3-2. of course, they had to win in the shootout to get the win. better than losing though. they play again today at Washington. god willing, they will end the Mom's trip with another win.

the NFL games yesterday were really good. i got the Patriots game wrong, which didn't shock me really. the night game between Arizona and Green Bay was a fucking instant classic. another Hail Mary from Aaron Rodgers and then Larry Fitzgerald took over in OT. that game was part of the reason i woke up tired as hell this morning.

Saturday Night Live was really funny and dirty last night. i enjoyed the show much more than i thought i was going to.

Austin City Limits was really good last night. Ryan Adams and Shakey Graves were the performers.

ROH was excellent last night. the main event was spectacular.

i went through my huge file folder of unpublished poems last night. there was poems in there from over a decade ago. i found a few that i think i might try to submit to places again, though i'm not sure about it. hell, i might just put a book together of rejected poems and see how all those poems work together. it was certainly a long two hours down memory lane.

enjoy some music kids:

and now some of this and that:

i'm going with Carolina and Denver to win the NFL games today.

i will be flipping between football and hockey for most of the day.

on the DVR tonight will be Shameless and Billions on Showtime.

i hope everyone has a great Sunday, or at least better than your Saturday.

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...
