the Yankees play a doubleheader today in Cleveland. i would love if they would win both games.

the New York Rangers play at home this afternoon against the Islanders. it would be nice to see the Rangers actually win today.

Manchester United plays at Bouremouth this afternoon. i'm not holding my breath for a United victory, although it would be nice.

i'm sure i will watch some other stuff today as well.

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

welcome to the weekend...

 so, i thought Smackdown did a pretty good job last night remembering Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt. the beginning of the show really got to me. the ending was a really nice touch.

NXT Level Up was pretty good last night.

AEW Rampage was good last night.

the Yankees won last night at Tampa, 6-2. that was the first time they had won on the road in 2 months. they play again down in that dump this afternoon.

i did get my order from Repacked Wax today. i got some basketball, football and baseball cards. when the first pull from the first pack i opened was a Michael Jordan card worth over $10, i knew i was going to be happy with the cards. all in all, i got a really good mix of cards.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be AEW Collision.

so, when Manchester United got down 2-0 in the first 4 minutes today at home to Nottingham Forest, i quickly turned off the game, knowing i didn't need the fucking stress. thankfully, United came all the way back to win the game, 3-2. they desperately needed that win.

i'm sure i will watch some college football tonight, maybe some MLS and maybe some baseball.

i'm not sure when i will be on here tomorrow. i might try to watch some of the pre-show to the ppv AEW has tomorrow in London. i think that will be FREE on YouTube.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

i don't think our AC is working properly. i'm guessing the last few days may have killed it. great.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay off the fucking streets.

get the fucking shot.

slowly getting back into a groove

 so, i am slowly getting back into a groove that i had going before COVID tried to kill me. i got 11 poems out today, i'm on the second load of my mother's laundry and i got in a decent nap because of my shitty bad back. all in all, i feel pretty good, though this rain isn't doing me any fucking favors.

i sent 11 poems out earlier in the afternoon, 3 each to Terror House Magazine and The Beatnik Cowboy; 5 poems to Synchronized Chaos. i'll post the verdicts when i hear back from these places.

the New York Rangers won last night in Las Vegas, 5-1. they had 4 goals in the 3rd period to blow the game open. that was lovely to watch.

the New York Knicks won last night, beating Atlanta, 113-89. sadly, Obi Toppin got injured last night and is going to be out for a few weeks.

here are your NBA highlights from last night:

the Dayton Flyers had their asses handed to them last night, losing at Virginia Tech, 77-49.

AEW Dynamite was excellent last night.

The Masked Singer was pretty good last night, 

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Young Sheldon and NJPW.

i need to be up early in the morning tomorrow as i have to get the Highlander up to the dealership to get that new tire put on it. i am pretty sure i will have to go out and pick up some prescriptions for my mother at some point tomorrow. and i know i am going to have to get my laundry done while doing all of that. plus, the World Cup starts back up tomorrow. so, this is a long winded way of telling you i have no fucking clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

i need to go figure out dinner and ice my damn back down yet again.

in case you were interested, tomorrow at the World Cup, Croatia takes on Brazil and Netherlands plays Argentina.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay off the fucking streets.

get the fucking shot.

i guess i needed some sleep...

 so, all the shopping i was going to get done today never happened. apparently, i needed some sleep. so, i guess i know what i will be doing tomorrow...

mom's appointment at the eye doctor went well. i think we have a better idea what has been playing a part in all her falls. i'm hoping the new glasses will help that. now, i didn't love the way they basically rushed her out of the place since we were the last appointment. they didn't even bother to give mom the chance to actually pick new frames if she wanted them. in the end, that probably saved her some money, but mom was not happy about it. i can understand. but, i also know now, never get the last appointment of the day.

Big Brother was good last night. Daniel did get evicted. Taylor is the new HOH.

NXT UK was really good last night.

NJPW was excellent last night.

the USA world juniors team defeated Switzerland last night, 7-1. they play Austria on Saturday afternoon.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage and Real Time with Bill Maher. i'll watch NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.

the Yankees start a series tonight at the Red Sox. i'm hopeful that the Yankees will pull their heads out of their asses and start winning again. hopefully soon.

it was cool enough today that i was actually able to open the house up a bit and let some air move through. that probably actually helped me sleep more as well.

i am going to try to be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays.

and if i actually get my ass in gear tonight, there might be another blog post after i send some poems out.

i hope everyone has a great weekend.

and here's hoping that Salman Rushdie doesn't die tonight.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

black lives matter.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands.

stay socially distant.

get the fucking shot.
