so, the neck gets better and the back gets worse...

i spent most of yesterday in my massage chair, trying to loosen up my neck. eventually, i did get it loose, but of course, my back was then hurting. it never fails. i got both calmed down enough to get about 5 hours of sleep last night. good times.

i turned off the Dayton Flyers game yesterday when they were down by 22 against VCU. i did follow the score and when Dayton started making their comeback, i never turned back to the game. superstition was running the show now. Dayton did come all the way back but of course, ended up losing to VCU, 69-68. that pretty much eliminates Dayton from having a chance to win the conference now. so, i guess the goal will be to finish in the top 4. that should be doable, even though you can tell they badly miss Trey Landers. and given the brace he was wearing on his shoulder yesterday, i have no clue when he will be back.

i did watch most of the NBA All-Star Saturday Night festivities. the slam dunk contest was better than the last few years. i loved that Steph Curry lost the 3 point shootout and i always love when a big man wins the skills competition.

Saturday Night Live was pretty good last night.

ROH was very good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Total Bellas, True Detective, Crashing, High Maintenance, Last Week Tonight, Shameless, Black Monday and SMILF. i'll be watching WWE Elimination Chamber for most of the evening on WWE Network.

i doubt i watch much of the NBA All-Star game tonight or the Daytona 500 this afternoon.

the New York Rangers play this afternoon at Pittsburgh. i'd love to see the Rangers win today, but i'm not expecting them to.
