at least i made a little money...

 i made a bet back in August last year that the Kansas City Chiefs would win the Super Bowl. after last night, i wish i would have been able to put more on that bet. but, the one rule i stick to when gambling is only bet what you can afford to lose. so, i put $1 down on it and won $9 last night when the Chiefs won in overtime over the 49ers, 25-22. i thought the game eventually got good. halftime was really good. the commercials were sort of hit and miss for me, but there were more hits than misses. add in the nachos i made for dinner and all in all, it was a pretty good night.








here are your videos for this day of Black History Month:





Manchester United won yesterday at Aston Villa, 2-1.









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



Hightown was good last night.



True Detective Night Country was amazing last night. season finale is next week.



Curb Your Enthusiasm was hilarious last night.


The Woman In The Wall was very good last night.

welcome to the weekend

 i got up early this morning because mom wanted to be up so she could get ready to go to a funeral. i didn't go. i've got laundry to do, pills to pick up from Rite Aid, etc. 


i did go to Rite Aid yesterday. probably 45 minutes after i got home, they texted me saying i had prescriptions ready to pick up. god forbid have them all ready at one time for me.


the Dayton Flyers won yesterday against St. John's, 88-81. they will play Houston on Sunday night for the championship down in Charleston. Houston is rated number 6 in the country, so Dayton will have nothing to lose when they play on Sunday night. a win will give them a really good resume come tournament time. a loss will be fine since they aren't supposed to win this game anyway.




Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both pretty good last night.





AEW Collision and AEW Rampage were both pretty good last night as well.



Real Time with Bill Maher was pretty funny last night.





here are your NBA highlights from last night:

of course it had to be raining today...

 mom was hoping to go out to this store a few miles away to look at some plants. i looked at her and asked if she had looked outside. she noticed it was raining. oh well.


i really hope everyone took some time today to educate yourself on Juneteenth.


the New York Yankees lost both games of the doubleheader to the Red Sox yesterday, 6-2 and 4-1. it is so easy to see right now, this team fucking sucks without Aaron Judge.




the USMNT defeated Canada last night, 2-0, to win the CONCACAF Nations League title.









VICE was very good last night.



both episodes of The Righteous Gemstones were fucking hilarious last night.

i should be on here tomorrow in the morning as i have a doctor's appointment tomorrow afternoon.

it felt like it was raining all the time yesterday...

 and finally, at night, it did rain. it rained most of the night. i think i finally fell asleep around 4 when it finally stopped to mostly just a drizzle. on those days, my arthritis feels like an elephant has climbed on me for shits and giggles. fun times.


i did get up in time to see Manchester United win this morning. they won 1-0 at Bournemouth. add that with Liverpool dropping points this morning, United now only needs 1 point in their last two matches to officially qualify for the Champions League next season. and with the clean sheet today, David De Gea won the golden glove for the best keeper in the Premier League.









the New York Yankees won last night in Cincinnati, 6-2. hopefully, they will win again today.





here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night.


here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night.



AEW Rampage was pretty good last night.




Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both really good last night.










the season finale of A Black Lady Sketch Show was fucking hilarious last night.



enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:









nothing on the DVR tonight.


i will probably watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight.


i will most likely watch The Preakness Stakes today as well.


i definitely plan on watching Columbus vs. FC Cincinnati today in the MLS.



i will probably be on here in the morning tomorrow, before the Yankees play before noon.


i hope everyone has a great Saturday. thankfully, i think all the rain has moved out, so it should be nice and sunny here today.

lost a hour, gained some snow...

 when i woke up this morning, the grass was covered with snow. thankfully, the driveway and sidewalks were not.


the Dayton Flyers won yesterday against Fordham, 78-68. they play VCU today for the A10 Championship. Dayton hasn't won the A10 conference tournament in 20 years.


the New York Rangers won yesterday in Buffalo, 2-1, in OT. they play today at Pittsburgh.









the New York Knicks lost yesterday at the Clippers, 106-95. they play tonight at the Lakers.




here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:



i did watch a few MLS games last night.










Saturday Night Live was hilarious last night.


enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Your Honor, the season finale of The Last of Us and Last Week Tonight.


Manchester United and Southampton played a 0-0 draw today. considering United was down to 10 men for more than half of the game (Casemiro got another red card), i'm fine with the draw. still mad at the red card though and some other shitty decisions made by Anthony Taylor today. every ref should know, if you are trending after a game is over, you did a fucking horrible job.






if Dayton wins today, i will be absolutely fucking glued to the selection show for the NCAA tournament later tonight. if they lose, i mean i'll still do some brackets, but i won't give two shits about them either.


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


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

hello the rest of 2021...

 as much as i'd love to get this fucking year over with already, there still is shit to do. i have had a productive day so far. i've been to the bank and i got my pills at Kroger. i got my new coffee maker going this morning. first time i have ever done the K cups. and it was also the first time i ever had Death Wish Coffee. i was happy that i liked it. i think the stronger caffeine is better for me actually. 


team USA defeated Slovakia last night, 3-2, at the World Juniors. i'm happy they won, but they need to play a complete 60 minutes if they are going to repeat as champions.





the series finale of Insecure was excellent last night. i am sad to see the series go, but it was a wonderful ride.


the season finale of Curb Your Enthusiasm was fucking hilarious last night.


the season finale of Hightown was really good last night. i do hope there will be a season 3.



the season finale of VICE was good last night.



Dexter: New Blood was really good last night.



Yellowjackets was fucking great last night.



here are your NBA highlights from last night:

and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw and Insecure: The End.


the New Orleans Saints play tonight at home against the Dolphins. the Saints have 24 players out tonight because of COVID, so a victory would be something like a Christmas miracle.


Manchester United plays at Newcastle in a little bit. i really hope United wins today.


i will probably be on here tomorrow after mom has her physical therapy session.


i do hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.

thank you Drew Brees...

 so, Drew Brees announced his retirement from the New Orleans Saints yesterday, 15 years to the day he signed with the team. he is easily the best quarterback in team history and in my opinion, one of the greatest of all-time.








i had to go out and do some things today. mom needed a few things and to have some pills picked up. i needed to go to the bank and make a deposit. and of course, it was raining the whole fucking time.


Manchester United won yesterday over West Ham 1-0. it should have been a much bigger score, but i guess the own goal from West Ham will have to do.



the finale of Allen v. Farrow was good last night.


Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.


Batwoman was really good last night.


Shameless was hilarious last night.



Desus & Mero was fucking great last night.



Vice was excellent last night.




The Luminaries was a bit of a mind fuck last night.


so, i did watch the Grammys last night. amazingly, i think i knew most of the songs that won.







enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Monday Night Raw, The Voice and Beartown.


i did listen to episode 334 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:



so, much to my amazement, the Dayton Flyers made the NIT field last night. of course, once i saw the number of teams that declined, i quickly realized why Dayton was included. the school still thinks the NIT means something. sadly, most of the fan base does as well. they play Memphis on March 20th i believe.


as for the NCAA tournament, i think Gonzaga has the easiest route to the Final 4.



Dayton's old coach got fired from Indiana today. i'm a little surprised that Archie didn't do better there.



the New York Rangers play at home tonight against Philadelphia. hopefully, the boys find way to win tonight.


the Yankees won yesterday over the Blue Jays, 5-1. they defeated the Phillies today, 4-2.



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


i guess i did put out the grass seed at the right time today. now, if it actually does warm up the next few days, it might actually work.


i hope everyone had a great weekend.

today was a day to remind myself that life is nothing but a slow death...

 i wrote a poem last night that i broke into five parts. it was the first time i have done that in years. i'm doing my next round of submissions either tomorrow or Friday.


the first two stops on the grocery shopping day were fine. i went to Rite-Aid to get a ton of stuff for mom. they didn't have any baseball cards there. so, i went to the one where i got lucky the last time, near the Kroger i go to. more on the baseball cards i found in a bit. as for Kroger. you would think a damn blizzard is coming or something. fuck, it was way too damn crowded for my liking, especially in a fucking pandemic. but, i got everything on the list, so we are stocked for weeks in my opinion.


as for the baseball cards, i paid $13 for 3 Fairfield boxes. i got 1 autographed card out of one box and all told, probably close to $50 worth of cards. not bad.


the Dayton Flyers started off like shit yesterday at Duquesne. and honestly, when the score was 15-3, i turned the damn thing off. the final score of 69-64 does no justice to the fact the game was never close.

the final day of 2020...

 i am so ready for 2020 to be over. i'm not sure if that's the pain talking or the naive fucker inside of me that thinks 2021 is going to be better.


so, just before the Dayton game last night, i saw that Chase Johnson was leaving the team for the second time in 2 years. i'm hoping he gets his health in order and shit, but it is a little funny that this has happened after the end of the first semester 2 years in a row. on top of that, two other players were injured and weren't going to be able to play against LaSalle. that meant that their new player from Finland, Mustapha Amzil, was not only going to be making his collegiate debut in the game, he was going to be starting. now, he was probably the only Dayton player i couldn't be mad at, mostly because he scored 22 points in the game and was the only fucking player on Dayton that looked like he cared. Dayton lost last night to a fucking horrible LaSalle team, 67-65. that was the first time LaSalle won at Dayton since 1999. the more i type about it, all the shit i felt last night keeps coming up. so yeah, they play against George Mason on Saturday at home. if they play like they did last night, they will lose again.

AEW last night was very emotional. they gave probably the best tribute show i have ever seen last night for the memory of Brodie Lee. i cried for nearly the whole damn show.










NXT was very good last night.





i did catch a little of the World Juniors last night.



enjoy some music:








and now some of this and that:








nothing on the DVR tonight. i watched NXT UK this afternoon on WWE Network. it was a look back on 2020 and was pretty good.


i will be watching the USA vs. Sweden game tonight at the World Juniors. if either team wins in regulation, they win the group. it would be massive for the USA to win tonight. that would give them the "easier" game in the quarterfinal. 


i'm sure i'll probably watch the ball drop tonight and be thankful this fucking year is over.


and i'm sure i'll probably text a few friends around midnight, although i'll probably be the only one awake.


it's painfully obvious that age is getting to all of us. 


i should be on here tomorrow pretty early. if not, it will be after Manchester United plays a huge game against Aston Villa.


until tomorrow kids... be safe tonight and enjoy every second of it.


fight the power.

fuck the police.

here comes the rain...

 i'm hoping to get this written and get the damn trash picked up before the rain starts...


i went to Big Lots today hoping to find some baseball cards as i had a 15% off coupon. of course, they didn't have any. so i picked up a Joker figurine, a Darth Vader Funko Pop and some candy. with the discount, it cost me less than $15. so, that was a decent find in my mind.


Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.








The Voice was very good last night. hopefully, it will be tonight as well.







Industry was pretty interesting last night. 


i did watch some of the Jets vs. Patriots last night. i couldn't tell if my mother wanted the Jets to win or to keep losing to get a better draft pick. the Jets did find a way to lose at the end, 30-27. but, they did cover for all you gamblers out there.


enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:

this coffee better work...

 i'm still working on a huge mug of coffee this morning. i didn't get to sleep until 5 this morning. ah, the joys of a poet's life on the weekend. where watching porn is actually "research" and sleep is an option that no one ever fucking needs. i guess Wild Turkey had more of a say in the night than i even thought.


Manchester United played a lifeless 0-0 draw yesterday against Chelsea. the optimist in me could say well, at least they didn't lose at home or the defense played good enough for a clean sheet finally. but, i'm not a fucking optimist.


Ohio State whipped Nebraska yesterday, 52-17. considering Nebraska scored first and made it look really easy, i was pleased with how the defense stepped up over the course of the game. next up for Ohio State is a trip to Penn State next Saturday night.


i did watch a good portion of Indiana upsetting Penn State in OT yesterday. i guess someone got caught looking ahead.


i also caught the last half inning of the World Series last night. that was fucking crazy.

ROH was excellent last night.


Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.


Austin City Limits had Rufus Wainwright on last night. it was excellent.




enjoy some music:




and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be Our Cartoon President, The Good Lord Bird, The Comedy Store, Desus & Mero, The Undoing, Last Week Tonight and Seduced: Inside The NXIVM Cult. i'll be watching WWE Hell in a Cell for most of the evening.


the New Orleans Saints play at home today against the Panthers. New Orleans is missing a ton of players today between injuries and COVID-19. i'm bracing for the worst today.


i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. i'm hoping for the early afternoon, but given how the weather is supposed to be around here, your guess is as good as mine.


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