finally, back to where they belong...

 i don't have much of a voice left. i think i used all of it up today watching the USA vs. Iran. the USA had to win to advance in the World Cup. thankfully, Christian Pulisic decided to sacrifice his body to make sure the USA went ahead in the first half. he's already vowed, from his hospital bed, that he will be playing in the next game. i wish the USA would have made the second half a little easier on us fans, but they don't have that in them. they seem to like the torture of trying to hold on to a 1-0 lead. and that is exactly what they did. now, since they finished second in the group, they will play Netherlands on Saturday.








in the other games at the World Cup today, England defeated Wales, 3-0. Netherlands defeated Qatar 2-0. and Senegal defeated Ecuador, 2-1. that means that England will play Senegal in the next round.



i was happy last night when the New York Rangers were up 2-0. i thought maybe the team meeting and the new lines were actually going to pay off. silly me. the Rangers lost last night to the Devils, 5-3.







The Voice last night was really good. i have no clue who goes home tonight.







the season finale of Avenue 5 was pretty funny.


Monday Night Raw 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 Voice, NXT and Tales From The Territories.


the New York Knicks play tonight at Detroit.


mom's meeting went pretty good this morning. she is at least on the list now for the Area Agency on Aging. she will have a nurse come see her tomorrow morning. i guess i will get the grocery shopping going after that is over.


we're supposed to have some crazy weather come through tonight. that's going to be fun with tomorrow being trash day.


i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.


i need to go figure out dinner and get the trash picked up.


until tomorrow kids...

and this is why i don't sleep more than 4 hours a night...

 so, i had to take my mother to her heart doctor today. she left them a message this morning. she called me out to the kitchen while i was eating my breakfast and asked me when i could take her to the doctor. i chose the latest time they offered as i knew this was going to become a production. and i was right. thankfully, we made it there under the 15 minute late grace period they have. mom got her heart medicine figured out. so, i am hoping she won't feel like she is passing out when she takes it now.


yesterday at the World Cup, Spain and Germany finished 1-1. today, Cameroon and Serbia finished 3-3, Ghana defeated South Korea 3-2, Brazil defeated Switzerland 1-0 thanks to a goal from Casemiro and Portugal defeated Uruguay 2-0 thanks to 2 goals from Bruno Fernandes. tomorrow starts the final stages of group play. Ecuador will play Senegal and Netherlands will face Qatar in Group A. in Group B, Wales takes on England and Iran faces USA. the USA MUST win to advance to the knockout rounds.















the New Orleans Saints lost yesterday at the 49ers, 13-0. it was the first time the Saints have been shutout in over 20 years. 







the New York Knicks lost yesterday at home to Memphis, 127-123.





here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:



the Howard Stern interview with Bruce Springsteen last night was fucking great.





The White Lotus was hilarious last night.



Let The Right One In was really good last night.



Ziwe was fucking funny as hell last night.




enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, Monday Night Raw and the season finale of Avenue 5.


i did listen to episode 423 of Notsam Wrestling today. you can hear that by going here:




i think Area Agency on Aging is coming out here tomorrow. mom tried to get a hold of them for years but i guess the one good thing to come out of her brief stay at the nursing home is this. hopefully she will get some answers to the questions she has.


i should be on here tomorrow after the USA vs. Iran game is over. i am really hoping i will be in a good mood. i haven't seen one of my sports teams win in forever it feels like.


speaking of that, the New York Rangers play tonight at home against the New Jersey Devils. 



i hope everyone had a great weekend.

so, the siren still rings, but not as loudly...

 it is like a low hum in my left ear today. i'm not sure if it is something COVID related or maybe my mental tricks actually still work from time to time. i have always been a big believer in accepting the pain as a means to control it. after my 3 hours of shitty sleep last night, i figured that would be the best thing i could do with my ear. so far it has worked pretty good for me today.


so, if all goes to plan tomorrow, mom will be back home. the group call today went pretty good. i could tell from listening to mom on it, she is more than ready to be back home. i do feel like i am symptom free, so i will hopefully be testing negative soon. 


the World Cup was a bit crazy today. i woke up and saw Argentina was up 1-0 on Saudi Arabia and went back to sleep. so, when i woke up later and saw that Saudi Arabia beat Argentina, 2-1, i had to make sure i had my damn glasses on so i knew i wasn't misreading something. holy shit. in the other games today, Denmark and Tunisia finished 0-0, likewise for Mexico vs. Poland; France defeated Australia today 4-1.





CR7 is now gone from Manchester United. i can't say i am surprised. it was obvious what he was trying to do with the Piers Morgan interview. hopefully he finds what he is looking for but i highly doubt anyone other than those teams in China or Saudi Arabia is going to pay what he wants to play anymore.





now, if this Manchester United news actually happens, i will be more than happy...



the New York Knicks won last night in Oklahoma City, 129-119.




here are your NBA highlights from last night:





The Voice was really good last night. i have no clue who is getting voted off tonight.




Monday Night Raw was very good last night.






the series finale of The Vow last night was excellent. hard to believe there are still people brainwashed by that fucker.


Avenue 5 was hilarious last night. the season finale is next week.



enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, NXT and Tales From The Territories.


the New York Rangers play tonight out in Los Angeles against the Kings.


i should be on here tomorrow before the Dayton Flyers play Wisconsin down in the Bahamas.


tomorrow in the World Cup, Morocco plays Croatia, Germany takes on Japan, Spain plays Costa Rica and Belgium plays Canada.


i need to pick up the trash and figure out my dinner tonight.

the joy of when your body says no...

 so, when i woke up this morning, i was feeling like i hadn't slept at all. that's always fun. my bad back has been killing me for weeks now. no matter how much i stretch or ice or just rest, it doesn't get much better. i am losing weight, but i think that is by attrition. after breakfast today, i could feel my body just shutting down. so, i got back into bed and tried my best to sleep. the siren in my left ear is still going non-stop, so sleeping isn't fucking easy at all anymore. i did stay in bed until the second half of the USMNT game today. after watching that, i probably should have just stayed in bed. more on that in a bit.


the New Orleans Saints won yesterday over the Rams, 27-20.





the New York Knicks lost yesterday at Phoenix, 116-95. they play tonight at the Thunder.





here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:



i did catch most of the games today and yesterday in the World Cup. i am pretty disappointed the USMNT tied Wales today, 1-1. while it is better than a loss, they could have won today. that will make getting out of the group even harder, especially since England destroyed Iran today, 6-2. Ecuador beat Qatar 2-0 yesterday and Netherlands defeated Senegal today, 2-0.

i am listening to episode 422 of Notsam Wrestling right now. you can hear it by going here:






i might watch some of the NFL game tonight between the Cardinals and 49ers.



i know i need to be up early tomorrow morning for a conference call with the social worker where mom is. mom seems to be doing pretty good. i'm just hoping they get her blood pressure under control.


i should be on here tomorrow after the World Cup games are over. the games tomorrow are Argentina vs. Saudi Arabia, Denmark vs. Tunisia, Mexico vs. Poland and France vs. Australia.


i hope everyone had a great weekend.

not the day i was hoping for...

 so, i woke up this morning in pain, but i figured that would be the case. anytime the winter weather begins, my back decides it wants a fucking vacation. add on top of that the likelihood that i have COVID, and you can just imagine where my mind was drifting off to today. i guess mom is doing a little better but it is looking more likely, as of right now, that she will need home healthcare. it still looks like she will get discharged on Thursday. 


i was hoping to do my laundry today, but i knew that wasn't going to happen with my back feeling like this.


The Voice was pretty good last night. i have no damn clue who is going to get eliminated tonight.








Monday Night Raw was good last night.








The Vow was pretty disturbing last night. the season finale is next week.



Avenue 5 was hilarious last night.



enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:

the Dayton Flyers play late tonight out in Las Vegas at UNLV. Dayton is now ranked #21 in the country and are 4 point favorites tonight.


here are your NBA highlights from last night:




i know probably after the game i will get the trash out. hopefully, it won't be snowing when i do that.


it definitely is going to feel weird not going grocery shopping tomorrow. i'm hoping i will feel better than i do right now. i have been blessed with some crazy fucking gas in the last few hours. the kind where you sit on the toilet for hours and just listen to your stomach rumble. good times.


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


a big thank you to everyone that has checked out my latest published poems:





i really hope a stray missile today didn't mark the beginning of WWIII.

didn't expect to see this this morning...

 i was beyond tired last night. i got the dishes done around 3:30 AM. my mother was still in the bathroom, where she had been since basically midnight. by 4 AM, i was dragging and knew i needed some NyQuil and sleep. so, i asked my mother if she needed anything since this was going to be her last chance to ask. she said no. i woke up at 9 AM. i went into her room and all the lights were still on. i went into the bathroom and she had stuffed her diaper and her pants into the toilet. i think i said WHAT THE FUCK loud enough to wake up the neighborhood. i went into the other bathroom to piss. i cleaned out the toilet and sure enough, i then had to shit. and by the time that was done, mom had peed in the bed. so, there was another load of laundry to do. i did eventually get her dressed and out to the living room. i made her breakfast and thought she was actually going to be ok. silly me. she spilled coffee on the floor. she somehow got cream cheese on her phone, pills and her hair. she asked for a diet coke and promised to use both hands. she spilled that all over the floor. and then the best part was when she was accused me of kidnapping, not allowing her to talk to people, etc. etc. all because she didn't realize her phone was upside down. i showed her how to open it and dial, etc. and then she accused me of not showing her what i just showed her. that was my 9 AM to 3 PM life today. i got some dry socks on her and some dry pants and i think she is actually sleeping now. i was able to go to Rite Aid and get my prescription and all the other shit i needed. thankfully, that only took 30 minutes today.


the USWNT won yesterday against Germany, 2-1. that ended their 3 game losing streak.







the New York Rangers won last night over Arizona, 4-1.






The White Lotus last night was hilarious.

i'll keep everyone updated on what is going on. i need to find mom's paperwork so i can get her back on her meds. so, that great hunt will begin when she wakes up as i don't want to wake her as i'm going through files and then get accused of something. she already threatened me once today. 


i hope everyone had a great weekend.

not the day for my bad back to act like an asshole...

 most of the time with my bad back, a little ice and a nap will do the trick. and of course, on the day i need to be on the go and ready, my bad back has decided it wants to be an attention whore. fucking great.


so, the New York Rangers pissed away a 2 goal lead yesterday and lost to Detroit, 3-2 in OT.

the New Orleans Saints play at home tonight against Baltimore.




the New York Knicks play tonight at Minnesota.


i did listen to episode 420 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can hear that by going here:




i had to go to Rite Aid this morning to get my prescription. if the pharmacy would have been open yesterday, i would have got it then.


i will probably be on here tomorrow in the afternoon, after i take mom to her doctor's appointment.


oh, and i was absolutely correct on who Manchester United would have to play in the Europa League playoff...

Happy Halloween

 it has been rainy and gloomy here all day long. if it would have been colder, it would have completely reminded me of many nights trick or treating in my childhood. 


Manchester United won yesterday at home against West Ham, 1-0. the goal was scored by Marcus Rashford, which was his 100th goal for the club.






the New Orleans Saints won yesterday over the Raiders, 24-0. i was shocked at how poorly the Raiders played or, holy shit, there's the Saints defense i was expecting to see this season. hopefully, this is a sign of things to come.





the New York Rangers won last night in Arizona, 3-2. 







the New York Knicks lost last night in Cleveland, 121-108.




here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:



i did watch a little of the MLS conference finals yesterday. i think the finals between LAFC and Philadelphia should be a good one.

i think i found the one...

 so, i think i finally found the perfect woman for me. now, it is just a matter of convincing her that she is the one and how the fuck can we erase these miles between us. but, this might be the fire that actually lets me live past the age of 50. so, that's some pretty amazing news for today. 


the New York Knicks won last night over Orlando, 115-102.

yesterday was a disaster...

 let me get this out of the way... i am so fucking disappointed with the New York Yankees. but, i think the Deadspin article i read today summed it up perfectly. they stopped being the Yankees and wanted to be smart with their money, be frugal at times, not have all the best players, etc. more or less, not be the Yankees of years past. you know, those teams that won all those championships and had all those hall of famers, etc. why the fuck would you ever want to be like that? fuck me. so, of course, the Houston Astros swept them yesterday. the Yankees blew two different leads in the game. and the last out was Aaron Judge weakly grounding out to the pitcher. talk about the wrong time to have a simply awful playoffs; when you're trying to back up a truly amazing regular season. if the Yankees don't sign Judge, this will be their excuse. the playoffs. he fucking sucked in them. i doubt very much that the owner has the fucking guts to fire the manager and the general manger. and honestly, if the Yankees don't make some serious changes to their front office and roster, this will be the insanity of let's just keep on doing the same fucking thing and one year, it will change. so fucking stupid.








here are your highlights from the MLB playoffs yesterday:




the other punch to the dick yesterday was the New York Rangers having their asses handed to them by the Columbus Blue Jackets at MSG. the Rangers were outplayed the entire fucking game. and Columbus had played the night before. completely unacceptable.








at least the MLS playoffs didn't disappoint yesterday:






Let The Right One In was excellent last night.



the season finale of Power Book III: Raising Kanan was great last night.



enjoy some music:

i did listen to episode 418 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can listen to it by going here:




i hope everyone had a great weekend.


i had so much i wanted to do this weekend and none of it actually happened. i often talk about living in the margins of life. that is exactly the example i use. it reminds of a poem i wrote years ago. if i die alone, does the body ever get discovered? my best guess is only if i owe someone some money.


i need to go buy dinner. not sure what mom wants, but my attempt to cook some ribs last night did not go well.


i should be on here tomorrow after i take mom to physical therapy and then a little trip for her to have some work done at Compunet. thankfully, all of it is in the same facility.


the New York Knicks play tonight. i might catch some of that while eating dinner.
