more snow than expected...

 so, i took a shower late last night. i didn't get to sleep until almost 6 this morning. imagine my fucking joy waking up with a cramp in my left leg after just 3 hours of sleep.

i know i said yesterday that i would have the blog done before the Manchester United game was going to start today. well, that didn't happen. United is down 1-0 at Tottenham so far today.

the Dayton Flyers won yesterday at home against Duquesne, 77-76.

the USA defeated Canada last night at the 4 Nations Face Off, 3-1. that qualifies the USA for the finals.

i will probably watch some of the Daytona 500 today.

i will probably watch some of the NBA All Star game today as well.

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

i have no idea when i will be on here tomorrow.

welcome to black history month...

 as long time readers of this blog know, i try to do a little bit each day in this blog in February to celebrate black history month. i also know, most people in this country are way too fucking ignorant when it comes to black history. so, i'd like to think maybe i am teaching someone something they never knew before. so, i will probably share a few links or videos each day this month. i hope you get something out of them. and honestly, i don't want to hear if you don't like it.

that being said, here are your links for this day of black history month:

the New York Rangers made a trade last night with Vancouver. J.T. Miller is coming back to the place where he got drafted years ago. hopefully, he finds the form he had last year and drags the Rangers into the playoffs this year. he will be in the lineup today when the Rangers play at Boston this afternoon.

the Dayton Flyers won in St. Louis last night, 71-63.

i will be watching the WWE Royal Rumble for most of the evening.

i did go to the bank today. after i made the deposit, i came back home. imagine how fun it is to come home and find your mother on her hands and knees not knowing how she fell or how she got to where she was. and of course, she didn't want to be checked out or anything. welcome to my day of frustration now. (my best guess now after she just woke up again and doesn't remember falling is she was sleepwalking.)

i did write 1 poem last night. it was about tragedy, which of course, there was another one last night.

i should be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the morning.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

i did write 1 poem last night before i took a shower.

the Dayton Flyers defeated St. Joe's last night, 77-72. you would never by the final score Dayton was up by 29 at one point of the game.

Smackdown was very good last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night's Main Event, Austin City Limits, AEW Collision and Saturday Night Live.

i did write 1 poem last night. i was really hoping for more but nothing was flowing.

i did get up early enough this morning to watch Manchester United lose to Brighton, 3-1. they can't play well two games in a row at home for anything.

i'm sure i will watch the NFL playoffs today. hopefully, i will make more money than i did last night.

the Chiefs (of course) beat Houston, 23-14. Washington stunned Detroit last night, 45-31.

today, Rams at Eagles and Ravens at Bills.

i will probably be on here tomorrow in the morning. i have no damn interest in watching the inauguration, so it will be before the NBA games start tomorrow.

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

welcome to the last weekend before dystopia becomes normal again...

 i went to the bank this morning to make a deposit. no big deal, there was a little rain but thankfully it wasn't freezing rain. as i was coming out of the bank, i noticed this contractor talking to the police in the parking lot. as i got in the Highlander, the cop was leaving and this old guy comes racing out of the bank. he starts yelling at the contractor, you fucking asshole, you stole money out of my account, i should punch you in the fucking face. i was like, i guess i can wait around for a bit. the old guy was probably in his 70's, the contractor was maybe late 30's. the old guy got into the contractor's van. the contractor got out and got on his phone. i started the Highlander and left, obviously there wasn't going to be the violence i could have another book of poems about. oh well.

i did write 1 poem last night. i have 5 in the unpublished file. i'd love to get another 5 so i can send to a couple different places.

 i think i got nearly 6 hours of sleep last night. not sure how that happened. i did write 5 poems last night. 4 for the book and 1 for the general pile. i also need to come up with a title for the book. if anyone has any suggestions, i'd love to hear them.

the New York Rangers won last night at Las Vegas, 2-1. i certainly didn't expect that victory.

i did watch a good portion of both NFL playoff games yesterday. i'm sure i will watch most of all 3 today.

so, Manchester United and Arsenal are 1-1 in extra time of their FA Cup match today. United is down to 10 men, so i'm not looking forward to the rest of this.

i am looking forward to the NFL games today. Denver at Buffalo, Packers at Eagles and Washington at Tampa Bay.

at some point today, i will probably doing my laundry.

if not, it will be sometime after the game, probably while the New Orleans Saints are boring me to death.

when it stops being fun...

 so, i had wanted to get this blog done before Manchester United played this morning. in hindsight, i really wish i would have. unfortunately, i woke up a little later than i wanted and decided, let me actually enjoy breakfast instead of rushing through it. United pissed away chance after chance in the first half. thanks to a shitty penalty call in the second half, they lost to West Ham, 2-1. hard to blame this one on ETH, but i'm sure some will. not the way i wanted to start my Sunday.

the Yankees lost Game 2 last night of the World Series, 4-2, to the Dodgers. they are now down 2-0 in the series. the next 3 games are at Yankee Stadium. if the Yankees don't win Game 3, it will be more than likely a sweep.

Ohio State played like shit yesterday yet managed to beat Nebraska, 21-17. they play at Penn State next week.

the New York Rangers won last night at home over Anaheim, 2-1.

i did watch some college football yesterday:

 last night sucked for the most part. i can handle losing. i hate it, but i can handle it. what i tend to lose my shit on, is when one (or more) of my teams, beat themselves. yeah, it was one of those nights. 

Ohio State lost at Oregon last night, 32-31. injuries and mistakes. that pretty much sums up the game.

the New York Rangers lost at home to Utah last night, 6-5, in OT.

the USMNT won last night against Panama, 2-0. it wasn't pretty, but it was a win. i'll take it.

 i didn't get to sleep until after 4 AM this morning. i got up a little after 9. that was a few minutes after the Manchester United game started. they were playing at Aston Villa. the game finished 0-0. honestly, it could have been much worse. but, at least they got a point out of the game. still, it is the worst start they have had in the Premier League. ETH will find out this week if he will still have the head coaching job at United. my best guess is if they have the next coach already lined up, he will get fired. if not, they will keep him, at least until the summer.

Ohio State defeated Iowa yesterday, 35-7.
