so, i didn't get to sleep until around 5 this morning. when i got up, roughly 4 or 5 hours later, i looked to see what the temperature was outside. my phone said 0 but feels like -11. oh joy, now winter is definitely here.
i was hoping to get this done before Manchester United started today. so much for that. they are currently playing at home against Tottenham. it is 2-2 in the second half.
the New York Rangers pissed away a lead yesterday and lost at Washington, 3-2. they play them at home today. hopefully, they end this fucking losing streak.
i did watch both NFL playoff games yesterday. the Texans whipped the Browns, 45-14. the Chiefs beat the Dolphins last night, 26-7. today, the games are Packers at Cowboys and Rams at Lions.
AEW Collision and AEW Battle of the Belts were both pretty good last night.
Austin City Limits was excellent last night.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be the season finale of The Curse, Power Book III: Raising Kanan and True Detective: Night Country.
i did go to Rite Aid yesterday to pick up some prescriptions. that looks like a wise decision as it was probably 20 degrees warmer yesterday.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
i thought the Super Bowl was pretty good last night. if it wasn't for that late holding call against the Eagles, i think the game would have gone down as an instant classic. i was about 1 yard away from making twice as much as i did last night, but the Eagles wide receiver who i needed to score went out of bounds at the one. i made $70 last night. if he scored a touchdown there, i would have had another $86. i looked at my mother and just laughed, welcome to the world of gambling. the Chiefs beat the Eagles last night, 38-35.

so, i got up early this morning to watch the USMNT takes on Japan in a friendly over in Germany. right when i heard that Pulisic wasn't playing for the USA, i should have just gone back to sleep. Japan defeated the USMNT today, 2-0. honestly, the match never felt that close. i was not pleased at how the USA played at all. simply not good enough.
i went to Rite Aid and got my pills after that debacle. thankfully, there was no charge.
the Yankees won last night over Boston, 5-4, in 10 innings. i honestly thought Judge won the game in the bottom of the 9th, but his blast to center field died at the wall. i figure he will get 61 and/or 62 tonight since i can't watch it. the game is on Apple+. with the win last night, the Yankees clinched a playoff spot at the very least. the magic number to clinch the division is 6 i think.
Vice News Tonight had two great episodes this week.
Big Brother was good last night. Brittany got sent to the jury house, as i expected. Turner won the first HOH of the final 3.
NJPW was excellent last night.
Little Demon was fucking crazy last night.
Atlanta was great last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Smackdown, AEW Rampage, Real Time with Bill Maher and Los Espookys. i'll watch NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.
i thought i was going to take mom out to look for a new chair today. i think all of yesterday just really drained her. so, that will have to take place on another day. it would probably help if her glasses would come in first and actually help improve her vision.
i should be on here tomorrow in the morning.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. it feels like it is going to be the perfect fall weather for a good weekend.
we really didn't get much rain today. but with my luck, it doesn't fucking matter. as long as the rain is nearby, my arthritis is dancing with joy. nothing like sitting and watching tv and all my joints start to flare up at the same time. as i told my mother, these are the days a fucking morphine drip was created for.
Vice News Tonight had two great shows this week.
the season finale of American Horror Story: Double Feature was crazy last night.
The Masked Singer was very funny last night.
Alter Ego was good last night.
WWE Crown Jewel today was better than i was expecting.
NXT UK was very good today as well.
i did watch some of the NBA last night. here are your highlights:
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Young Sheldon, United States of Al, B Positive, Cake, Desus & Mero, What We Do in the Shadows and Dark Side of the Ring.
the New York Rangers play tonight in Nashville. hopefully, they can keep on winning.
the USWNT plays a friendly tonight against South Korea.
the pills that i called in to Kroger yesterday still aren't ready. that makes me laugh. so, i imagine at some point tomorrow i'll have to go get those. my sister is coming down for the weekend in the afternoon. so, i will hopefully get the blog done in the morning tomorrow. no promises though.
i think it rained just about all night long. that surely explains why i woke up in pain. of course, it always makes me laugh. 4 hours of sleep.1 drink before bed of mostly Jack Daniels and a little soda. blood sugar is fucking fantastic in the morning. that's the DNA of an alcoholic right there boys and girls.
Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.
ROH was very good last night.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
on the DVR tonight will be Axios, Allen v. Farrow, Last Week Tonight, Batwoman, Shameless, Desus & Mero and The Luminaries. the Golden Globes are on tonight, but i highly doubt i watch much of them.
Manchester United plays at Chelsea today. i would fucking love to see United win.
the New York Rangers play this afternoon at home against Boston. i'd love to see a repeat of the last game.
the New York Yankees start their spring training today against the Blue Jays. i have high hopes for the Yankees this season, but mostly, i would just love to see them stay healthy for a change.
i should be on here tomorrow after a trip to the bank and the post office. got some money from a friend wanting to buy some baseball cards. of course, the money came yesterday after the bank and post office was already closed.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday is even better.
until tomorrow kids...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
it was sort of gloomy today, a little snow, a little sunshine, wind blowing like a motherfucker... one of those days i knew i was only going to go outside once (to get the paper and mail) and that was it. add in some pain in my back and it has been more or less one of those days to forget.
the New York Rangers lost to Boston last night, 3-2 in OT. i swear to god, if this team would simply look to shoot the fucking puck instead of always trying to make the perfect pass...
NXT was really good last night. i can't wait for Takeover on Sunday.
AEW was really good last night as well.
The Masked Dancer was good last night. i had a hunch that the Zebra was a boxer, but i never thought it was Oscar De La Hoya. the finals are next week.
Name That Tune was good last night. i was a little shocked at some of the songs the contestants didn't know.
so, late last night i bought some baseball cards from Walk Off Wax. they had a sale going on and i figured i might as well give them a try. here is a link to their website:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Young Sheldon, B Positive, The Unicorn, Clarice and Desus & Mero. i watched NXT UK this afternoon. it was excellent.
i know i have to go out tomorrow and pick up some pills for my mother. i have a coupon for $5 off at Big Lots that i will probably end up using tomorrow as well. if the weather is good, i may do a little card hunting to see if i can find any new baseball or even basketball, hockey or football cards.
i may try getting some writing done tonight. i have some thoughts swimming in my head that i should probably get down on paper before they drown.
that's all for me kids.
until tomorrow...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.
black lives matter.
stay healthy.
wash your fucking hands.
wear your mask.
