and the rain only makes it worse...

 so, i guess i'll start at where we left off yesterday...

Manchester United played like shit yesterday at Watford. i turned the game off when United went down 2-0. thank god i did as they lost the game 4-1. i got a news alert later in the day that the board at Manchester United had an emergency meeting in the afternoon to FINALLY sack Ole. they made it official this morning. Michael Carrick will be the manager for the next few games, at least until they hire an interim manager. i have no damn clue who that is going to be or who is going to get the job permanently. all i know is all the great managers are already taken or already said they aren't interested. so yeah, once again the whole fucking club is a circus. good times.

so, i got to see Ohio State's first possession yesterday. when they scored against Michigan State, i left to go to the Dayton game. by the time i got in the parking lot at UD Arena, Ohio State was up 21-0. they ended up winning the game, 56-7. that sets up a monster game next week against that school up north. i can't wait.

when the Dayton Flyers had an 8 point lead at halftime yesterday, i looked at the guy next to me and said i don't know what to do when we have a halftime lead. he laughed. little did we know, we were about to see yet another fucking loss. Dayton pissed away a 12 point second half lead and lost to Austin Peay, 87-81. i loved that Dayton played more aggressively defensively yesterday, but in the end, they don't know how to play 40 minutes of basketball yet. and they just went 1-3 against the "easy" part of their schedule. now, comes a tournament down in Orlando where i won't be surprised if Dayton comes back home 1-6. that would be their worst start to the season since i was in high school in a season where they only won 4 games total. 

i had to get gas after the game and mom wanted me to get her some food. when i got home, i noticed that she had moved a bunch of shit around in the kitchen. i noticed the rocking chair, that was in the living room was now in the kitchen as well. i asked how she did that while using her walker and she just smiled. then i watched her try to walk around the kitchen and she was struggling. now comes the joy of having a quick temper. i got her walker and slammed it down in front of her and told her to fucking use it. it was in a voice that probably could be heard throughout the neighborhood. i love that she lets me go to these games, to get out of the house and do something with my life. but, i am not fucking interested in coming home and finding her dead on the floor because she thought she could walk around the house without assistance. 

Saturday Night Live was really good last night.

Austin City Limits was excellent last night.

here are your highlights from the NBA last night:

on the DVR tonight will be Axios, Succession, Insecure, Curb Your Enthusiasm, BMF, Power Book II: Ghost, Vice, Dexter: New Blood, Yellowjackets and Desus & Mero. i'll be watching WWE Survivor Series for most of the evening.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against Buffalo.

the New Orleans Saints play at the Eagles today. hopefully, the boys can get a road win today.

our Thanksgiving plans have been changed. the cousin my sister was going to bring me back some food from found out that she has COVID. so, i'm going out tomorrow to try to find everything for here at the house. a small turkey breast, some ribs, rolls, mashed potatoes, etc. my sister is coming down on Tuesday i believe. she'll be bringing the stuff she's making and her friend's dog as well. her friend is going to Finland for Thanksgiving. i'm not a big fan of the dog, so i'm not really looking forward to this now.

i should be on here tomorrow after i get all the stuff from the grocery stores.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

until tomorrow kids...

what a difference fans make...

 so, i was up at 6:30 this morning to watch Manchester United play. thankfully, i had the tv on in time to see them unveil Raphael Varane as their latest signing this summer. he should greatly improve their defense. the crowd was electric all game long. United was up 1-0 at half. Leeds came out on fire in the second and quickly leveled the game. then, came one of the great fuck off performances from the boys that i haven't seen in ages. they scored the next 4 goals and eventually won the game over Leeds, 5-1. Bruno had a hat trick and Paul Pogba had 4 assists. Sancho came on late to give the fans one last chance to really cheer. damn near the perfect way to start a season.

Smackdown was good last night.

205 Live was good last night.

AEW Rampage was excellent last night.

Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

nothing on the DVR tonight. ROH is on tomorrow at noon.

i figure i will watch plenty of soccer today and some pre-season football as well.

the Yankees play tonight at the White Sox. hopefully, they will find a way to win.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. the heat finally broke here, so we're airing out the house a bit.

i should be on here tomorrow in the morning.

until then kids.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

well, at least the rain finally stopped...

it was raining when i did that recording last night. i think it rained most of the night. i didn't get much sleep. i was in bed before 3 AM, which is a miracle anymore, but i saw the clock at 5 and 6 and finally at 7 i said fuck it, and got out of bed. there's a chance of snow tonight. figures, i'll be out at the basketball game.

Mel Brooks: Unwrapped was pretty good last night. seeing all those old clips brought back some memories.

Smackdown and 205 Live were both good last night.

on the DVR tonight will be Bluegrass Underground, The Shop, ROH and Saturday Night Live.

the New York Rangers finish their road trip this afternoon against the Anaheim Ducks. hopefully, the boys can get another win.

the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against Drake. it's another sellout at UD Arena. hopefully Dayton wins again tonight. they are 16 point favorites i believe.

i will watch some of the Army vs. Navy game this afternoon before i get ready to leave for the basketball game.

i should be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays. given that the Saints don't play until Monday night, i have a nice big window to get the blog done.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

until tomorrow kids...

3 inches of snow and the cold side of hell

i think we only got maybe 2 inches of snow, but somewhere in town they got around 3. i can deal with the snow, it's the fucking cold that sucks. the lows here are supposed to be in the single fucking digits. oh joy.

physical therapy went well today. all my numbers look better than when i started. so, i'm on a 2 week hold. after that, my therapist will call and see how i'm doing. if i'm still doing good, i'll be formally discharged from physical therapy.

i did the trash when i got home. i wanted to do that while the sun was still out. and i didn't go next door as there were people over there, so i figured they could take the trash out. of course, those lazy fucks didn't. so, i guess it will go out next week.

Monday Night Raw was good last night.

The Voice was good last night. i have no clue who goes home tonight as the show goes from 20 to 13.

Desus & Mero was fucking hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

i might do a little poetry work tonight. i need to figure out where i'm sending a batch of poems, probably on Thursday.

i know mom has physical therapy tomorrow afternoon. i should be on here after that.

i have updated my Amazon.com Wish List. you can find that on the right hand side of this blog. if you want to get me something for Christmas, you are more than welcome to do so. or, if you would simply like to give me money, you can always send some via PayPal. just use my email address.

it never fails...

i wrote 6 poems last night. i put off typing them up last night because i wanted to get some sleep so i would be up on time this morning to watch Manchester United. silly me.

Manchester United lost to West Ham today 2-0. injuries are crippling United at the moment and the team just has no fucking imagination as well. i stopped watching at halftime to start typing up those poems.

i really like the 6 poems i wrote. i guess my night with the third eye open paid off. sometime this week, if i can find the time, i'll send out another round of submissions.

Ohio State came out flat yesterday against Miami. both my mother and sister graduated from Miami. thankfully, Ohio State flipped the switch and scored the next 76 points. holy shit. Ohio State plays next week at Nebraska.

the New York Yankees defeated Toronto yesterday 7-2. hopefully the Yankees will win the series today, which happens to be the final home game of the season.

i did watch a few college football games yesterday. i enjoyed the Michigan loss. Notre Dame vs. Georgia was pretty good. UCLA vs. Washington St. was fucking crazy last night.

the New York Rangers lost last night in Philadelphia, 4-1. they haven't won a preseason game yet. joy.

ROH was pretty good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Power, Succession, Ballers, The Righteous Gemstones, The Affair and On Becoming A God in Central Florida.

the New Orleans Saints play this afternoon in Seattle. i'd love to see the Saints win but i'm not holding my breath.

mom has a doctor's appointment tomorrow afternoon. i will probably be on here when we get back home.

i hope everyone had a good Saturday. hopefully, your Sunday will be even better.

until tomorrow kids...
