it got pretty cold here last night, relatively speaking. it tried to snow and ice, but it didn't do much of either. thankfully, the sun actually made an appearance today.
it was transfer deadline day in England. i was hoping Manchester United was going to make a signing, especially after the Christian Eriksen injury news this morning. thankfully, it looks like they did.
Monday Night Raw was very good last night.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:

the Dayton Flyers play at home tonight against Loyola Chicago.
i did pretty good with my gambling last night. missed out on a college parlay by 1 damn point. that one stung. but, i did get a few others to hit. i have a few bets going tonight. hopefully, i will be lucky once again.
i will be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done and after Manchester United plays the second leg of the League Cup semifinal against Nottingham Forest.
i need to pick up the trash and make dinner, so that's all for me kids.
until tomorrow...

so, i got both NFL playoff games wrong yesterday. thank god i didn't bet much on either of them. i still adhere to my first rule of gambling, only wager what you are willing to lose. i did have a couple parlays hit, that saved me from not making anything yesterday. the Eagles beat the 49ers, 38-7. the Chiefs beat the Bengals, 23-20.
Your Honor was really good last night.
The Last of Us was fucking great last night.

it has been raining and snowing all day long it seems. nothing really sticking or anything, just enough to get my arthritis raging. the pain got so bad that i put some ice on my back and slept or faded to black for a couple hours this afternoon.
i did listen to episode 432 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:
i have no damn clue what i'm making for dinner tonight. i'm hoping the chicken i took out of the freezer has thawed or i might be making a trip into town...
not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. we started moving the living room around, so i'm guessing that will be a major part of tomorrow.
until then kids...

last night, the WWE Royal Rumble went on forever it seemed like. if i had any complaints about the show, that would be the start and end of it. when your main event starts around 11:45 and you have already been watching for nearly 5 hours... lets just say i'm no longer a spring chicken. i thought both rumble matches were good, with Cody Rhodes and Rhea Ripley emerging as your winners. there was way more surprises in the women's rumble this year. i thought the pitch black match was ok, as were the other singles matches. the main event was good, but the story afterwards was the best fucking storytelling WWE has done in decades. to watch Sami Zayn turn on Roman Reigns and the way the crowd popped for it, chef's kiss. the way Jey Uso walked out on his family and everything that could come from that, chef's kiss. and to be honest, a chef's kiss to the crowd last night in San Antonio, Texas for the "Fuck You Roman" chant that was louder than i think anyone expected. when this is the kickoff to the road to WrestleMania, i can't fucking wait for the next few months and what happens.
Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.
Austin City Limits had The War on Drugs on last night. that was a fun hour of music.
Manchester United won yesterday against Reading in the FA Cup, 3-1.
the Dayton Flyers destroyed Richmond yesterday, 86-60.
the USMNT and Colombia played a 0-0 draw last night. thank god i didn't watch.
the New York Knicks lost last night at the Nets, 122-115.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:

and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Your Honor and The Last of Us.
i finished with a little more money than i started with by last night in my day of gambling. i'm hoping for better results today.
i will be watching both games today in the NFL playoffs. the Eagles play the 49ers first, then the Bengals play at Kansas City. i have the 49ers and Bengals winning today.
i'm sure i will watch some of the FA Cup action today and some college basketball. i did love watching Liverpool getting knocked out of the FA Cup this morning.
i have no clue when i will be on here on Monday.
i'm currently running on 3 1/2 hours of sleep, so i will probably get a nap in before the football games. or at least i fucking hope i do.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

so, like most of this country, i watched the released footage of the killing of Tyre Nichols last night. just a fucking senseless death. now, i know the arguments from both sides. just comply, don't run, etc. all cops are evil, doesn't matter the color, etc. since we no longer live in a society where anyone can see the fucking truth is somewhere in the middle of the rhetoric, i'm hoping the protests won't turn violent, but i'm sure they will. and honestly, my only hope from all of this is the few good police that do exist in this country. please turn all the shitty police in. now, i know for any of that to happen, you have to change the police unions and the whole concept of why he have police forces to begin with. even better, imagine a society where drugs were legal and the temptation to do them was gone because you were no longer getting away with something. i'm not going to get on my soapbox and rail for the next 45 minutes, although i know i can. as i told my mother last night, there has always been a reason why i have never trusted the police and even more reasons why i never will. all this does is add to my resolve. now, if any good comes from all of this, that should come from the resolve of others who actually want to live in a society as bound to racist institutions as this country is. and if you want to think i don't know what i'm talking about, please look up why this country started up police forces. and if you actually read the truth, it shouldn't be that hard even for the fucking blind to connect the dots.
the New York Rangers won last night at home against Vegas, 4-1. the boys are off now until February 6th (All-Star break).

so, i got a good amount of things done today. i went to Rite Aid and got my prescription, after that, i went to Big Lots as i had my birthday coupon to use. i got some baseball cards and hockey cards. i spent a little over $30. thankfully, there was more than $30 worth of cards in the packs and boxes. after that, i had to go to the UPS Store to return some shoes for my mother. thankfully, that long ass line moved pretty quick. after that, i went to Meijer as we needed a few things and i had a coupon for one of them. after getting all that done, i made it back home, had lunch and watched a little soccer to take a nap. good times.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Las Vegas.
i've decided to get a little more creative with my bets on DraftKings. so, i will be doing more round robins on my parlay bets as i have had way too many instances of getting 3 of the 4 right and getting nothing out of it. now, the trick will be to get everything correct and then get paid 7 different ways. hopefully, i'll pull that off tonight.
i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow. i know mom wants to watch some of the FA Cup this weekend. i know i will be on here before Manchester United plays in the FA Cup against Reading and before Dayton plays at home against Richmond in college basketball.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. it is Royal Rumble weekend, so i'm pretty geeked up for Saturday night.

i heard back from Alan at Misfit Magazine on my most recent poetry submission. my poems "the dark angel", "but the confidence never came", "an old glass of something dark and strong", "anything that brings anyone joy" and "that last glass of scotch" have been accepted for publication in issue #36, probably in late Spring.
so, i finished clearing off the driveway today. i was smart about it at least. i went as far as my back would allow. now, if i was younger, i would have done it all yesterday. but, i know i'm not younger, so at least it got done.
ok, let me start off from where i left this blog yesterday.
Manchester United won yesterday at Nottingham Forest, 3-0. they basically are one more win away from actually playing for the League Cup trophy.
that was about where my joy ended yesterday.
the Dayton Flyers lost at Rhode Island, 75-70. once again, the dip in form that always comes in an Anthony Grant coached team (except for one damn season) is now back again.
the New York Rangers lost at Toronto in OT, 3-2. gave up another third period lead.
the USMNT lost to Serbia last night, 2-1, in a friendly. it was good to see some new faces playing. i'm just wondering who they are going to hire to be the coach.
AEW Dynamite was excellent last night.
Name That Tune was pretty good last night.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:
i did get my other order from Fanatics today. i got some New Orleans Saints football cards. i did get a few nice rookies in it, so that was cool.
i need to vacuum the house sometime tonight and make dinner. i would have loved to do that earlier but mom took a 3 hour nap this afternoon. i didn't want to be the asshole to wake her up.
i know i need to go to Rite Aid tomorrow to pick up a prescription. i should be on here after that, weather permitting.

the New York Knicks won last night over Cleveland, 105-103.

i guess the snow is supposed to start sometime after midnight. i've decided i'm not putting out the trash this week as i don't really feel like chasing empty trash cans in a fucking snow storm.
i should be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays in the League Cup.
i did open the baseball cards i got yesterday late last night. not quite what i was hoping for, but i did get some nice rookies and an autograph.
i need to get going on dinner. making some pork chops tonight, with some sweet potatoes and whatever else mom wants.

we got around 5 inches of snow yesterday, at least that is what the guy that does our driveway said. Wednesday, we're supposed to get another 6 inches or so. fuck me. so yeah, grocery day will be tomorrow. i can just imagine the shit show i will be trying to shop in.
so, let me get to what went on yesterday. Manchester United lost to Arsenal, 3-2. that was a fucking gut punch since Arsenal scored basically at the death to win the game. if i didn't have a rooting interest in the game, that would have been the type of game you show to someone who isn't into soccer to turn them into a fan for life. and the reason you do that is so they can feel the pain or joy of what it means to be a fan.
i did watch both NFL games yesterday. the Bengals whipped Buffalo, 27-10. the 49ers beat Dallas, 19-12. i didn't win nearly enough money as i wanted to yesterday. i was hoping that a few parlays would hit and nothing really did. i think i made less than $30. fuck me.
the New York Knicks lost last night in Toronto, 125-116.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:
Your Honor last night was very good.
The Last of Us was excellent last night.
i went to the bank today to deposit my birthday check. thankfully, the roads were in good shape. i went to Meijer after that to get some baseball cards. i was hoping they would have what i saw last week while i was there. of course, they didn't, but i did get a couple boxes of cards. i also got a binder since mom got me a ton of pages for the cards to go in as one of my presents.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw.
i did listen to episode 431 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:
well, my 47th birthday went pretty well, other than a few sports teams finding the time to punch me in the dick. but, in the end, i did make a little money and feel really good about how i have lined things up for today. i didn't win any money on the Powerball last night. i had the first two numbers right on one and started to dream. that quickly died. the Pizza Hut order got here way quicker than i was expecting. of course, i am a decent tipper. as for the Melts from Pizza Hut, not as bad as i was thinking it would be. not necessarily a must order item, but i can see why someone would want it. mom really surprised me with the gifts she got me. so yeah, in the grand scheme of things, i survived it. now let's move on.
i never like when my favorite teams play on my birthday. too many instances of a pissed off kid going to his room to sulk over the years. case in point, the Dayton Flyers. honestly, it felt like they thought all they had to do was just show the fuck up. now, they said all the right things after the game, but sure as hell didn't do any of that shit in the game. George Washington never trailed in the game and defeated Dayton, 76-69.
i did watch both NFL games yesterday. the Chiefs beat the Jaguars, 27-20. i made a little money on that but not as much as i wanted to with Mahomes getting injured. in the second game, the Eagles beat the shit out of the Giants, 38-7. that blew up my underdog parlay. today, the Bengals play at Buffalo and the Cowboys go to the 49ers. if all my bets hit today, i will be a very happy motherfucker tomorrow.
Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Your Honor and The Last of Us.
so, i woke up to snow this morning. i guess the forecast has changed and we're going to get more than just a coating now. we are already at a few inches. we're under a winter storm warning until tonight. joy.
Manchester United plays today at Arsenal. i would fucking love to see United pull off a stunner today.
the New York Knicks play at Toronto this evening.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:

so, i am now 47 years old. woke up at 6 this morning to take a piss. managed to fall back asleep for almost another 90 minutes. and then had to stick myself twice this morning to get my blood sugar. and then Chelsea and Liverpool played a 0-0 draw, which fucked up my soccer parlay for today, so i know it is going to be one of those days. joy.
a big thank you to everyone who has already sent me birthday wishes. i do appreciate it.

i did watch the highlights last night of the USWNT beating New Zealand, 5-0.
i'll probably watch plenty of college basketball today as well as both NFL playoff games, Jacksonville at Kansas City and the Giants at Eagles.
as for my bets today, i have a pretty big college basketball parlay going today (6 teams) and a few bets on both of the football games. hopefully, a few of those will actually be winners today. and i figured since it was my birthday, i might as well play the fucking Powerball tonight.
i think i'll probably order some Pizza Hut for the birthday lunch and dinner today. sadly, it is the best out of what few options we have where i live. plus, mom has been wanting to try one of those melts for months now.
i guess the snow is supposed to come for tomorrow. it is just going to be cold today.
the mail just got delivered, so that's all for me today kids.
i should be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays at Arsenal.
