well, the day is finally here. Super Bowl Sunday. it honestly should be a really good game. the Chiefs going for 3 in a row. the Eagles, in my opinion, have the best roster in the NFL. but, you don't make money betting against Patrick Mahomes. so, i think the Chiefs will win a close game. i hope, mostly because of my bets, that it will be a high scoring game.
the New York Rangers won last night in Columbus, 4-3.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
i'm pretty sure i'll end up watching most of the Puppy Bowl today.
i just watched Liverpool get knocked out of the FA Cup by Plymouth. they are in last place of the division below the Premier League. that is the beauty of the FA Cup.
i'm sure i'll watch some other sports today before the Super Bowl.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday.
i hope your Sunday will be even better.
best of luck to all the gamblers today.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
until then kids...

Manchester United was fucking awful in the first half today. Leicester wasn't much better, but they were up 1-0 at halftime. at least United woke up in the second half. to be honest, they couldn't play worse. Garnacho came on and did very well. Zirkzee scored the first goal. Harry Maguire scored the game winner late, even though he was clearly offside. thank god there was no VAR today. United won 2-1 to advance to the next round of the FA Cup.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
there is so much to get to in this blog, i might as well start with the bullshit at the top of my mind. let me paint a picture. i have been talking to this beautiful woman from Georgia (state not country) for the last couple of weeks. i thought we really hit it off. we're both born in January. she's a Chelsea fan. i'm a Manchester United fan. she really liked my poetry. etc. etc. well, last night she told me she loves me. i said i love you too. felt incredibly comfortable saying that as i am at the point of my life where i am fucking tired of being alone. so, i got up this morning and there was no message from her. no big deal, i'll send the good morning. she comes back that she is in pain and her phone is fucked up. ok, shit happens, sorry to hear that. she then sends me a pic that says her camera on her phone won't work unless she has an Amazon gift card. i checked all around the web, already knowing the answer, but hoping to find something where i was wrong. so, you wait until the day after i say i love you to fucking try to scam me. that pissed me off royally. now, i had mailed her a book that should arrive tomorrow along with a birthday card. i usually allow people three strikes. but, when you toy with my emotions and then try to scam me, that's such a red flag that you have to go. so yeah, that was how my day started off. just fucking lovely. but, that should give me plenty to write about for the last 8 poems needed for the book.
i tried to start the Highlander today and of course it wouldn't. i needed to go to Kroger to get some pills and whatever was on the list. the battery charger mom ordered from Amazon is supposed to be here tomorrow. i'm hoping that works or we'll have to get a new battery. joy.
Manchester United defeated Arsenal yesterday in a penalty shootout to advance to the next round of the FA Cup. between a win with just 10 men and the draw at Liverpool the week before, maybe the team finally believes in itself again.
i did watch the NFL playoffs yesterday. Bills defeated the Broncos, 31-7. Eagles beat the Packers, 22-10. and the Commanders defeated Tampa Bay, 23-20. tonight the Rams will take on the Vikings.
The Agency last night was excellent.
Dexter: Original Sin was very good last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
nothing on the DVR tonight. i will be watching Monday Night Raw on Netflix.
so, the 3 poems i wrote last night i will look back with a great sense of irony. the poems i will hopefully write tonight will have plenty of venom. i won't be shocked if i get real fucking close to the number i need by 4 in the morning.
i'm ultra depressed now given this shit today. i told mom i should have expected the Highlander not to start when my blood sugar was 99 this morning. for every good thing that happens, there has to be a negative to even it out.
i still have no clue what is going on with my health insurance. and i need to get my driver's license renewed sometime before my birthday on the 21st. joy.
there was something i wrote last night that really has me thinking today. this theory that maybe i am that person who never gets to really fall in love and have that kind of happiness in my life. part of me is so eager to not be alone anymore that i'm willing to overlook the obvious shit just for the chance. that makes me wonder if i'm just rolling the ball uphill just to watch it fall over and over again. i remember in my 20's an old girlfriend warned me i was becoming the bitter old soul. sure enough.
that's all for me kids.
i surely hope your weekend was better than mine.
on the bright side, i did get my laundry done.
now i have to go ice my bad back.
until tomorrow kids...

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.
Austin City Limits was excellent last night.
AEW was ok last night.

and now some of this and that:

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

so, let me start off with the most unexpected thing that happened yesterday. if i had known what was going to happen, i would have put more than fifty cents on the game. Manchester United defeated Manchester City yesterday, 2-1, to win the FA Cup. when Kobbie Mainoo scored to make it 2-0, i felt like i was in a fucking dream. Garnacho scored the first goal for United. to have both goals scored by 19 year olds is something that i hope means good things in the future. City scored late but it truly was a day to paint the town red. i have no clue if ETH keeps his job or not. i won't be surprised if they do fire him. hell, they have fired coaches before after winnings titles. if it was his last game as manager, that is probably the best way he could have gone out.

i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA playoffs today, as well as the Indy 500 and probably some of the NASCAR race as well.
we're supposed to have some strong storms come through today, so i imagine i will be on tornado watch as well. good times.
i need to go ice my back down and try to catch a nap before the Rangers play this afternoon.

Manchester United plays the FA Cup final later today against Manchester City. i'm hoping against everything that is sane and logical, that United can pull off a miracle today.
right after that the WWE King And Queen of the Ring will take place in Saudi Arabia.
i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs on Saturday.
it is now 4 AM in my little bedroom here in Ohio. i guess i should try to get some sleep.
who knows, i may do another blog later in the day or early evening, especially if i get some feedback from the poems i sent out.
as a sports fan, i pretty much have seen it all. today is just another chapter of it, but, i am thankful i am 48 years old, so i know not to ever get my hopes up. when Manchester United went up 3-0 today in the FA Cup semifinal, i figured they would win but it wouldn't be like in the past. in the past, United goes up 3-0 and they would win either 3-1 or maybe 5-2, something like that. this United team lacks every single bit of confidence that all the United teams had before. and i sadly know that all too well. so, of course, United pissed that lead away and ended up going to extra time at 3-3 against Coventry. Coventry thought they had won the game in the 122nd minute, but they were offside by maybe an inch. probably even less than that. so the game went to penalty kicks. United won those 4-2, to advance to the FA Cup final against Manchester City. you could tell no one was particularly pleased that United won this way. to be honest, it feels like a fucking loss, which would have spared the potential embarrassment of what Manchester City will most likely do to them in the final. regardless, i'm not sure how ETH keeps his job and i'm not sure the new top brass has the guts to sell off all the players that need to leave. i was hoping for a way less stressful beginning to my Sunday.

the Yankees lost yesterday at home to Tampa Bay, 2-0, in 10 innings. hopefully, they will win the series today.

i hope everyone is having a great St. Patrick's Day. today has been completely fucking draining for me, and i love it. so, you can imagine what happened this morning.
Manchester United defeated Liverpool, 4-3 in extra time to advance to the semifinals of the FA Cup. they will play Coventry in the semis. the other semifinal will be Manchester City against Chelsea. this game was completely fucking nuts. United went up 1-0 but was losing 2-1 at halftime. they scored in the 87th minute to make it 2-2. Rashford had incredible miss that would have won the game in regulation. Liverpool scored in the first half of extra time to go up 3-2. Rashford scored in the 112th minute to tie it at 3. then, Amad Diallo scored at the death to make it 4-3. this is the United team i have been dying to see all season. they played with heart, passion, determination, everything they have lacked all damn season. an instant fucking classic.
the New York Rangers have had a great weekend, minus another damn injury. they won yesterday at Pittsburgh, 7-4. and then today, the defeated the Islanders at home, 5-2.
AEW Collision was good last night.

i will be on here in the afternoon tomorrow, probably after the Orkin guy leaves. he believes there is a squirrel in our attic.

so, we had some storms rumble through here last night. i didn't get to sleep until the big line of thunderstorms that produced tornados got through the area. once i didn't hear any sirens, i knew i could go to sleep. but shit, i was up 3 hours later to put the trash out. it was probably 40 fucking degrees colder today than it was yesterday. good times.
the cover to our phone box outside on the house blew off in the storm. thankfully, the guy from Spectrum actually found it in the field behind us and bolted it on so it wouldn't come off again. Luke was probably the best Spectrum worker we have ever had out here. we also lost a wind chime in the storm. i found most of that in the yard. it was too mangled to try to save, so that went in the trash.
grocery shopping was a bit of a chore today. good news i guess, i think i have lost weight. my only clue was my pants kept falling down. good times. i got everything on the list and was home a little later than i wanted to be. but, i did get to watch most of the second half of the Manchester United game.
United was playing at Nottingham Forest today in the FA Cup. winner goes to the quarterfinals. thankfully, United won it late on a Casemiro header to win 1-0. the reward is to play Liverpool in the next round. great.
the Dayton Flyers won last night at home against Davidson, 80-66.

Manchester United won yesterday at Newport, 4-2, in the FA Cup. when it got tied up 2-2, i was fearing the worst. thankfully, that didn't happen.
i did watch both NFL playoff games yesterday. the Chiefs won at Baltimore, 17-10. the 49ers beat the Lions, 34-31. Detroit pissed away a 24-7 lead in that game.

i'm off to go watch Wrexham in the FA Cup. probably laugh at mom getting too emotional watching the game.
so, the rain that seems to never end is supposed to turn over to snow later today. joy.
let me get the bad news out of the way first.
the Dayton Flyers lost at Richmond last night, 69-64. that ends the Flyers winning streak and puts them in second place in the A10.
the New York Rangers got down 2-0 last night and my first thought was here we go again. thankfully, the Rangers scored 7 straight goals after that to win in Ottawa last night, 7-2.
WWE Royal Rumble last night was excellent. i thought the women's Rumble match stole the show. Jade Cargill made her debut a memorable one. Bayley and Cody Rhodes won the Rumble matches.
AEW Collision was good last night.

Manchester United is playing at Newport County in the FA Cup right now. United is up 2-1 at halftime. considering Newport is 76 places behind United, i will be incredibly disappointed if United loses this in the second half.
the AFC and NFC championship games are today. Chiefs at Ravens and Lions at 49ers.
i will probably watch both of those games and a little college basketball today.
i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
