one thing you learn when you live and die by how the sports teams you follow are doing... death is a likely scenario sometimes. between the Yankees, Rangers and Saints last night, i was completely willing to find the tallest building and take a leap. fuck me.
the Yankees lost last night in Houston, 3-2. they are now down 2-0 in the series. now, i know a series really doesn't begin until a home team loses. with that in mind, the Yankees better win all 3 games at Yankee Stadium or this series will be over rather quickly.
the New York Rangers lost last night to the winless San Jose Sharks, coached by the former Rangers coach, David Quinn, 3-2 in OT. the Rangers got completely outplayed in the 3rd period and OT. that was fucking brutal to watch.
and then the final punch to the dick last night, the New Orleans Saints pissed away a lead and lost at Arizona, 42-34. Andy Dalton threw 6 TD's last night, but 2 of those were for Arizona. thank fucking god i didn't watch any of the game.
the MLS playoffs last night certainly did not disappoint.
Vice News Tonight had two great episodes this week.
the season finale of Little Demon last night was great.
Atlanta was fucking brilliant last night.
Young Sheldon was very funny last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown, AEW Rampage and the season finale of Los Espookys. i'll watch NXT Level Up sometime tonight on Peacock.
here are your NBA highlights from last night:
the New York Knicks play tonight at home against the Pistons.
i did go to Menards today. i found pretty much everything i was looking for. i was a little shocked that the Christmas shit was already out. fuck, Halloween hasn't happened yet.
i should be on here tomorrow in the morning. i know around noon or so, Ohio State and Manchester United will both be playing.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.
thanks to everyone for checking out my latest published poem:
i didn't get much sleep last night. i got in bed around 2 and i think the first time i saw the clock it was 3:10. fuck me. i got up and i was in pain this morning. that's the joy of having a bad back. some days, it will just fuck with you for the sake of fucking with you. i put a little ice on it late morning, after breakfast, hoping it would help before i had to do the grocery shopping. of course, when i am in a ton of pain, the ice will eventually put me to sleep. the phone rang a little after noon. i only know that because mom left the phone by her chair in the living room and the ringer is all the way up since she's basically deaf now. so, i definitely woke up from that. i would put a number on the pain around 7. and given my high tolerance for pain, 7 is around 15 for "normal" people. and that's on a scale of 1-10. so, this was how i went out into the world today.
the first grocery store was fine. i can't fucking stand white people that don't wear a mask because their leader told them they don't have to. i live in a town so far up Trump's ass, i'm bound to destroy someone just because. the second grocery store was a fucking zoo. too many people without a mask on while coughing. thank god i already got my fucking flu shot. bad enough on the way there, this fucking guy with Texas plates was doing his little Sunday drive. doing 40 in a 50. took everything i had not to run that fucker off the road. and then of course, the cheese my mother wanted needed to have a price check on it. there's 5 minutes i'll never get back. did i mention it was raining and i fucking have arthritis? these are the days where my death can't come soon enough. but it gets better.
i got home and got the groceries put away, in time to start watching some of the Champions League. and just as i kick back in my chair to ice my back, the fuckers come to finally pick up the recycling. and of course, they drop some of what was in our container in the street and leave the fucking container open, so the rain can collect in it. as i said loud enough for the dead to even fucking hear it before i left the house, i can't start killing people fast enough. i swear, if just 10% of the stupid people on this planet could be eliminated, it would be a much fucking better place.
The Voice was good last night.
i might have watched 30 seconds or so of the World Series last night. i truly can't give a shit.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NXT, AEW and Big Brother.
so, Manchester United defeated PSG yesterday, 2-1 in the Champions League. i really hope this is a sign of positive things to come for the boys. they play Chelsea this weekend.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. all i'm really fucking hoping is my back isn't killing me tomorrow. or, i have found the right illegal drugs to take away the pain. none of the legal shit does anything for me anymore. good times.
until tomorrow kids.
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.
black lives matter.
stay healthy.
wash your fucking hands.
wear your mask.

i wrote yesterday that i thought the Ohio State game was going to be a trap game and sure enough... Purdue beat Ohio State last night 49-20. i honestly didn't watch much after the 3rd quarter. i was just too fucking angry. now Ohio State has to think about that game through their bye week. oh joy.
i did watch some of the Lakers vs. Rockets last night.
Austin City Limits was pretty good last night.
ROH was good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be America to Me, Shameless, Kidding, The Deuce and Camping.
the New Orleans Saints play this afternoon at Baltimore. i think the Ravens are the one team in the NFL Drew Brees hasn't defeated. hopefully, that changes today.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Calgary. hopefully, the Rangers will get a victory in regulation tonight.
i will be on here tomorrow sometime after my physical therapy.
i hope everyone had a good Saturday. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.

my mind has been on a bit of a fucking rollercoaster since last night. sometimes, that's a good thing.
first off, the New York Yankees lost last night 7-1. it was one of those games where they just could never get anything going. it sadly reminded me of 2001 all over again, which i fucking hope isn't the case. Game 7 will be tonight. CC will be on the mound for the Yankees. i have faith they will find a fucking way to win tonight. if not, i'll drink myself to sleep and hopefully not wake up for a week or so.
after the game i got an email from a "fan" telling me my poetry is very sexy. i started to laugh, wondering which asshole from Africa was trying to spam me now. so far, no cracks that i have seen, although saying she loves my poetry and then saying she wants to keep things secret so to not upset my wife and her husband made me scratch my head a bit. i don't think i have made any poems that people would believe i am married in. but, "she" said she thinks of fucking me while she's with her husband, so at the very least, my imagination is going to have some fucking fun with this one.
so i got up this morning and did the dishes while Manchester United was playing. United was fucking dreadful today. i couldn't believe how shitty they were playing at Huddersfield. they deservedly lost 2-1 today. i really hope this isn't a sign of things to come.
after that game, i had to take a fucking shower. had to get the stink of that loss off of me. thankfully, i think it fucking worked.
the New York Rangers actually fucking won today. they defeated Nashville 4-2. this was the closest they have come all season to actually playing 60 minutes of hockey. hopefully they build on that when they play San Jose at home on Monday night.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
NJPW was great last night.
Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus was about Billy Joe Shaver last night. i laughed my fucking ass off.
Real Time with Bill Maher last night was fucking hilarious.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be ROH, Austin City Limits and George Michael: Freedom.
i figure if the Yankees game isn't going the way i am hoping it will go, i will flip to some college football tonight or that George Michael documentary on Showtime.
i did listen to the emergency State of Wrestling that Sam Roberts put out yesterday. i guess the WWE has a viral infection or the mumps going round the Raw locker room so they had to make some changes to the TLC ppv this Sunday. Bray Wyatt is out so now AJ Styles will take on Finn Balor. Roman Reigns is out so Kurt Angle is replacing him. it's been 11 years since Kurt has wrestled in a WWE match. when i saw this news yesterday, i thought someone had hacked their twitter account or something. Sunday should be crazy now. you can find the podcast by going here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/sam-roberts-wrestling-podcast/id934576040?mt=2
first, let me say that Every Brilliant Thing was amazing last night. i didn't know what it was about going into it, but i quickly knew it was about suicide once it started. i made the mistake of drinking while this was on. alcohol being a depressant already, oh boy, what a fucking ride. i absolutely love anything that can make me laugh and cry at the same time. for that alone, i highly urge you to check this out on HBO. now, while watching, i started to think about that i've had suicide in my head for 32 of the 40 years of my life. and part of me believes that's simply a byproduct of being inquisitive and a loner. another part of me thinks of how tragic that truly is. and when the guy talked about his mother's suicide last night, i started to think of the number of times i've been at that point. and why i haven't taken the next step? and then it was my mind racing to every time i think i take a step forward with my life, i'm suddenly dragged two steps back every fucking time. and part of me wonders how long i'll be able to keep this dance up before i've decided it's time. so, what usually happens is i end up in a really dark place mentally. last night was one of those times. now, sometimes amazing art comes from that dark place. sometimes i wake up in a pile of my own shit. and sometimes i wake up on the couch and the knives are under a bush outside (god i miss my 20's and tequila shots). last night, i ended up writing 3 poems in that dark place. i typed them up this morning and i really, really like them. i haven't decided where they will go, but i will certainly send them out sometime in 2017.
after i wrote those poems i actually got some sleep. damn near 6 hours, which is a fucking eternity for me.
team USA won in the World Juniors yesterday 6-1 over Latvia. thankfully, they got better as the game went on. they will next play Slovakia, which will be a tougher test.
i thought Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night, especially since it was the last show of 2016. i love that Braun Strowman is getting a push. he should absolutely be the next huge bad ass. plus, i'll never get tired of Jericho and Kevin Owens.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Smackdown. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.
i will forever remember Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia. but, i'll remember her more for her books. she was a brilliant writer. rest in peace, you absolutely deserve it.
the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Ottawa. The King is out with the flu, so it's the backup goalie once again. hopefully the time off did the team some good and they can get back to winning.
a little advice for everyone out there. actually listen when in a conversation instead of simply waiting for your turn to talk. the world already has too many assholes in it. trust me, i'm one of them.
i have trash to do and my laundry to finish. my neck has been killing me all fucking day. and the weather can't make up its fucking mind what time of year it is.
good times.

i woke up this morning on the other side of the bed. i guess i'm immune to the pain i feel anymore, but i certainly was tossing and turning all night long. i checked the rain gauge this morning and we had another inch. that's over 2 inches in under 36 hours. misery, my old friend.
mom wanted Taco Bell last night, so i went out in the pouring rain to go get it. part of me believes i'm getting closer to achieving sainthood.
Vice News Tonight was excellent last night. i'm happy that HBO is putting the full episodes up on their YouTube page.
Better Things was fucking hilarious last night. it also reminded me why i stopped going to church.
Fuck, That's Delicious was great last night. the episode ended with the new video from Action Bronson. as soon as i heard the beat, i had to go buy the song.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW and High Maintenance.
i'm doing this blog now as i know i'm going to be busy the rest of the day. i need to take a shower, do mom's laundry and go grocery shopping. good times.
if all goes well (can you hear the laughter right now?), i'm going to do some writing tonight.
i hope everyone has a great weekend.

i had a brief moment of reflection this afternoon, while watching some porn of course, that resulted in 4 simple lines. and i think it pretty much sums up my life at 38.
my asshole is leaking and i have
hair growing in places i can't see
it certainly doesn't come as a surprise
that no one is willing to marry me
for some reason, i feel like Janne Karlsson is going to send me some brilliant artwork based on those 4 lines.
i spent most of the morning fucking around on YouTube, trying to catch up on the stuff i missed last night. saw some of The Voice, it was better than last week but none of them have blown me away yet. saw some of The Big Bang Theory, that show always makes me laugh. i also saw the Boardwalk Empire show i missed last night on HBO. it was mostly the cast and crew going over the show. i'm really going to miss it after this coming Sunday. i also saw the next episode of Video Game High School.
i did have one mini miracle happen for me last night in fantasy football. i came back from being down 14 points to win by 5, all thanks to the Steelers starting RB. my other match finished in a loss. but, i did go 10-5 on my picks. my goal is to get to double digit wins each week. and i'm still alive in the suicide pool. i haven't made it this far without a loss EVER. so, i'm hoping i can keep up that streak.
Gotham was excellent last night. Monday Night Raw had some really good moments. the Mick Foley surprise was great. hopefully the upcoming ppv will have some holy shit moments.
the New York Rangers play at the Devils tonight. hopefully the boys can get another win. i'll be watching that for most of the night.
i am planning to watch some of The Voice tonight.
i think the World Series starts tonight. i won't give a shit unless it is a close game late. then i might watch.
i did get some free music today on iTunes and NoiseTrade. i'll provide some links below.
the weather has been gloomy for most of the day today. i think it's supposed to warm up by the end of the week.
i did write 3 poems last night. first time i have written anything in about 3 weeks. i typed up the poems this afternoon and i really like them. i'm planning to send out some poems tomorrow most likely. these 3 will be going out with the batches in November.
that's all for me today. hope everyone is alive, or at least comfortably numb. thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.
