the last day of the month...

 where the fuck did November go? i must be getting closer to death...


it has been a sunny morning, slowly warming up. 


The Voice was really good last night. i have no clue which 2 are going home tonight.












That's My Jam was mindless and funny last night.




Monday Night Raw was good last night.







enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be The Voice and NXT.


mom has a physical therapy appointment this afternoon. i will probably write some poems while that is going on. i just have no clue if i will get to wait inside or outside in the Highlander.


i will probably be on here tomorrow before i go grocery shopping. 


until then kids...

fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck the police.


black lives matter.

insert something witty here...

 as you can see, i have no fucking title for the blog today, so the smart ass that resides in my brain won out. i have spent most of today in pain. fun times.


on to better news, the Dayton Flyers defeated Belmont yesterday, 63-61, to win that tournament down in Orlando. it's the first one they have won in a decade i believe. i really hope this is the galvanizing point of the season where they take off from here and be great. one thing that is really obvious, they are a much better team when Malachi Smith is on the floor. the offense flows so much better when he's running the show. he won the MVP of the tournament.



i did watch some of the NFL games yesterday. i watched some of both MLS games yesterday as well. and i got all of my laundry done.




Succession was great last night.



Insecure was very good last night.



Curb Your Enthusiasm was hilarious last night.


VICE was excellent last night.


Dexter: New Blood was fucking great last night.



Yellowjackets was good and creepy last night.



Power Book II: Ghost was very good last night.



Hightown was good last night.



Manchester United got a 1-1 draw yesterday against Chelsea. they finally announced the new interim coach. hopefully, he can get his visa shit done before they play Arsenal on Thursday.






enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, Monday Night Raw and That's My Jam.


i did listen to episode 371 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:



i have a list of poems i want to record for SoundCloud. my goal is to get all of that done and out before Christmas. and i need to get all my Christmas cards out here soon.


i am going to try to be on here tomorrow in the morning. mom has physical therapy in the afternoon and i have no clue how long that is going to go. so, i think the morning is my best bet.


i hope everyone had a great weekend. i hope you got some great deals if you went shopping. and i hope the latest strain of COVID isn't fucking up your plans.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck the police.

what could have been...

 at least i am getting better at handling my anger. i was given plenty of practice yesterday as Ohio State shit the bed against that shit school up north. Ohio State lost 42-27. much like Ryan Day said after the game, it was a failure. the defense couldn't stop a fucking cold yesterday. and when you give up 5 rushing touchdowns to one player, you deserve to lose. i'm not sure which bowl game they will be playing in. i just know it isn't one that i wanted to see them in.




i did watch some boxing last night. i also helped mom with her laundry. today is going to be my laundry day.

i also did some small business shopping online yesterday. i always try to help the small businesses that have been good to me over the years. so, i should have plenty of baseball cards coming my way in the next few weeks.

enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be VICE, Dexter: New Blood, Yellowjackets, Power Book II: Ghost, Hightown, Succession, Insecure and Curb Your Enthusiasm.


the New York Rangers were supposed to be playing tonight but the league postponed the game since the Islanders are going through a COVID outbreak. this is the second time this season the Rangers have had a game postponed.


the Dayton Flyers will be playing Belmont today for the championship of that tournament they are playing in in Orlando.


Manchester United plays today at Chelsea. i don't have my hopes up for a win today, although i would love to see United shock the shit out of me today.



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.

i still don't believe it...

 so, my mother and i got home yesterday right around halftime of the Dayton Flyers game against Kansas. i turned the game on in my room, as my sister was watching some Christmas movie out in the living room. Dayton was down 10 at halftime, but given the turnovers they had and missed free throws, i knew if they cleaned that up, they still had a chance. plus, the spread was 16 points, so they were well within that. Dayton started the second half on fire. they clawed all the way back and eventually took the lead. and then they expanded on that lead. i knew Kansas had another run in them, so i didn't allow myself to think about the impossible. Dayton hadn't beaten at top 5 team since 1984. Kansas eventually got the lead back. Dayton cut it to a 1 point game and had a chance to win. Malachi Smith, who is clearly the heartbeat of this team, had his shot blocked, but it went right to Mustapha Amzil. he drove to the lane with 3 seconds left. with one second left, he put up a prayer. and when that shot hit the rim, went off the glass and into the basket, i believe every Dayton Flyers fan on earth lost their fucking minds. this team, that lost to teams they had no business losing to, just beat the number 4 team in the country and was back at .500 on the season. and now, they will get to play for a championship on Sunday against Belmont. HOLY SHIT!!!!!



the New York Rangers defeated Boston yesterday, 5-2. 







Smackdown and 205 Live were both really good last night.






AEW Rampage was excellent last night.



here are your NBA highlights from last night:



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









nothing on the DVR tonight.


i did watch some of that Duke vs. Gonzaga game last night.



the USWNT won 3-0 last night over Australia in a friendly.



now, for the only game that matters. Ohio State plays that shit school from up north today. i really hope Ohio State destroys them and gets the birth into the Big 10 championship game.



i'm sure i will probably watch some other games today as well. i know i need to go to Kroger to pick up some pills for my mother.


i should be on here tomorrow in the morning, before Manchester United plays at Chelsea. 



i hope everyone has an amazing Saturday.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.

black friday...

 amazingly, much like never having a Facebook account, i have never gone out shopping on Black Friday. and honestly, i don't think i have missed anything because of it.


Thanksgiving went pretty good for the most part. i think my sister and mother got mad at each other. i get the feeling my sister just can't accept the fact that mom's health is failing as quickly as it is. as i told my mother last night, that is her problem, not yours. 


the Dayton Flyers shocked the shit out of me yesterday. they easily played their best game of the season, defeating Miami of Florida, 76-60. they will play #4 Kansas today. if they win that game, i'll be totally fucking shocked.




the New Orleans Saints got their asses handed to them last night, losing to Buffalo, 31-6. i honestly stopped watching in the second quarter. i gave the remote to my sister and just walked out of the room. it is the first time the Saints have lost 4 games in a row in 5 years.





NXT UK was excellent last night.





enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown and AEW Rampage. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on Peacock.


the New York Rangers play this afternoon in Boston. hopefully, they will find a way to get a win today.


i have to take mom to her heart doctor this afternoon. of course, we have to leave a little before noon to get there on time.


my sister will be leaving sometime tonight i think. she is doing some volunteer work tomorrow.


i should be on here tomorrow before Ohio State plays that school up north.


i hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving.

fuck racism.

 Happy Thanksgiving 



i hope everyone has a great day.

it's raining here, so i know i will be miserable for most of the day. good times.


the New York Rangers won last night at the Islanders, 4-1.

nothing on the DVR tonight. i will watch NXT UK sometime today on Peacock.


the Dayton Flyers play at noon in Orlando against Miami of Florida. considering Dayton are 6 point underdogs today, i'm not expecting them to win, let alone cover.


the New Orleans Saints play tonight at home against Buffalo. i'd love to see the Saints get a win tonight, but they have a ton of injuries.



i got my order from WWE.com yesterday. whenever i can find t-shirts i actually like in my size and they are on sale, i usually jump at the chance. i got a Tommaso Ciampa shirt and an Edge shirt.


the baseball cards i got the other day were worth well more than the $20 i paid for the 2021 Topps Update value box.


i will most likely be on here in the morning tomorrow. i'm not much of a Black Friday shopper.

the day before a feast...

 so, my sister got here last night. she has her friend's dog with her, long story. i am more of a cat person, so... i wasn't exactly happy when my sister went to the store this morning and i ended up having to take the dog out. once to piss and once again because it wanted to be a curious asshole. mind you, i'm in a hoodie and some shorts and it is in the 40's outside. good times.


The Voice was good last night. i wasn't happy but not shocked with who got eliminated.

also, do remember there is still a fucking pandemic going on.


that's all for me kids. i need to go figure out why my mother is in so much pain and what the fuck am i cooking for dinner. good times.

CR7 to the rescue again...

 so, i wasn't really sure what to expect from Manchester United today. they were playing in Spain at Villarreal in the Champions League. they needed a win today to secure a place in the last 16 for the Champions League. David de Gea made some great saves. and then late in the match, CR7 to the rescue. United got a second goal from Jadon Sancho. i'm so happy he finally did something positive. i hope that opens the floodgates for that kid. United won 2-0. Michael Carrick got his first win. they have a huge test this weekend against Chelsea.









The Voice was really good last night. i have no damn clue who gets eliminated tonight.







Monday Night Raw was a bit crazy last night. Seth Rollins got attacked by a fan. that at least spiced things up a bit.










enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be The Voice and NXT.


i got one of my orders from Topps.com today. i got the 2021 Topps Update value box. i'll let you guys know tomorrow if anything good is in it.


i need to get the trash picked up and figure out what we're having for dinner tonight. my sister will be down here later this evening.

running on 3 hours of sleep...

 maybe this is becoming my new normal for Mondays. going to bed sometime around the sun coming up and being up less than 3 hours later to put the coffee on. and then another power nap in the late morning and boom, tackle the rest of the day. i did go grocery shopping today. i found everything, between two different stores, that i needed to get for Thanksgiving. my sister will be down here tomorrow night. we should have plenty if she brings everything she said she was going to.


so, yesterday was a bit crazy. first off, let me start with the bad news. the New Orleans Saints lost to the Eagles yesterday, 40-29. honestly, it never even felt that close. the Saints play at home on Thanksgiving night against Buffalo. oh joy.








now, some better news. the New York Rangers defeated the Buffalo Sabres last night, 5-4. the wining goal was scored with less than 1 second left in the game. good times.

and the rain only makes it worse...

 so, i guess i'll start at where we left off yesterday...


Manchester United played like shit yesterday at Watford. i turned the game off when United went down 2-0. thank god i did as they lost the game 4-1. i got a news alert later in the day that the board at Manchester United had an emergency meeting in the afternoon to FINALLY sack Ole. they made it official this morning. Michael Carrick will be the manager for the next few games, at least until they hire an interim manager. i have no damn clue who that is going to be or who is going to get the job permanently. all i know is all the great managers are already taken or already said they aren't interested. so yeah, once again the whole fucking club is a circus. good times.




so, i got to see Ohio State's first possession yesterday. when they scored against Michigan State, i left to go to the Dayton game. by the time i got in the parking lot at UD Arena, Ohio State was up 21-0. they ended up winning the game, 56-7. that sets up a monster game next week against that school up north. i can't wait.



when the Dayton Flyers had an 8 point lead at halftime yesterday, i looked at the guy next to me and said i don't know what to do when we have a halftime lead. he laughed. little did we know, we were about to see yet another fucking loss. Dayton pissed away a 12 point second half lead and lost to Austin Peay, 87-81. i loved that Dayton played more aggressively defensively yesterday, but in the end, they don't know how to play 40 minutes of basketball yet. and they just went 1-3 against the "easy" part of their schedule. now, comes a tournament down in Orlando where i won't be surprised if Dayton comes back home 1-6. that would be their worst start to the season since i was in high school in a season where they only won 4 games total. 



i had to get gas after the game and mom wanted me to get her some food. when i got home, i noticed that she had moved a bunch of shit around in the kitchen. i noticed the rocking chair, that was in the living room was now in the kitchen as well. i asked how she did that while using her walker and she just smiled. then i watched her try to walk around the kitchen and she was struggling. now comes the joy of having a quick temper. i got her walker and slammed it down in front of her and told her to fucking use it. it was in a voice that probably could be heard throughout the neighborhood. i love that she lets me go to these games, to get out of the house and do something with my life. but, i am not fucking interested in coming home and finding her dead on the floor because she thought she could walk around the house without assistance. 


Saturday Night Live was really good last night.


Austin City Limits was excellent last night.





here are your highlights from the NBA last night:



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Axios, Succession, Insecure, Curb Your Enthusiasm, BMF, Power Book II: Ghost, Vice, Dexter: New Blood, Yellowjackets and Desus & Mero. i'll be watching WWE Survivor Series for most of the evening.


the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Buffalo.


the New Orleans Saints play at the Eagles today. hopefully, the boys can get a road win today.


our Thanksgiving plans have been changed. the cousin my sister was going to bring me back some food from found out that she has COVID. so, i'm going out tomorrow to try to find everything for here at the house. a small turkey breast, some ribs, rolls, mashed potatoes, etc. my sister is coming down on Tuesday i believe. she'll be bringing the stuff she's making and her friend's dog as well. her friend is going to Finland for Thanksgiving. i'm not a big fan of the dog, so i'm not really looking forward to this now.


i should be on here tomorrow after i get all the stuff from the grocery stores.


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