not a bad way to start this weekend...

i've spent the last two hours sitting at my computer trying to get updates on the high school i went to. they were trying to win their 3rd state championship in football. given the tornado that basically destroyed Trotwood, the whole town was pulling for a victory today. i don't believe in happy endings, so i was fearing the worse. the game went to OT when Trotwood had a game winning field goal blocked. but, thankfully, Trotwood scored in OT and then intercepted Mansfield Senior on the final play of the game to win 14-7. all 3 of these championships are miracles to me. the team fucking sucked when i was in high school. but, hopefully it lifts the spirits of my former hometown and they truly enjoy it.

the New York Rangers had their backup goalie stand on his head last night (45 saves) and they defeated Columbus 3-2. they are at home tonight against Montreal.

NXT UK was really good last night.

Young Sheldon was pretty funny last night.

The Unicorn was very good last night.

i did watch some of the Bears vs. Cowboys last night. i love when the Cowboys lose.

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 did listen to the latest episode of Notsam Wrestling late last night. you can find that by going here:
http://notsam.com/wrestlingpodcast/2019/12/5/john-morrison-is-back-amp-the-police-were-not-good-thursday-notsam-thursday

shopping at Menards yesterday went pretty well. we found just about everything we were looking for. i thought mom did pretty well. we went to eat after we got done.

the grocery shopping today was crazy. you would think the world was ending. and of course, we've been living on scraps since Thanksgiving, so i had a fucking scroll of shit to buy. thankfully, i kept it under $200.

i'm going to try to be on here in the morning tomorrow. this is is going to be a fucking crazy football weekend. Ohio State plays for the Big Ten Championship tomorrow night. the New Orleans Saints have a huge game on Sunday against the 49ers. and, to start the whole weekend off is the Manchester derby. so, i'm hoping to get the blog done before United and City play tomorrow. that way i won't be trying to do one in the afternoon totally pissed off or too fucking drunk.

i do need to figure out who i'm sending Christmas cards/gifts to this year and where the fuck my next round of poems will be going to.

so, the candle will be burning at both ends this evening.

i hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. get your shopping done and hopefully your weather doesn't fucking suck this weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

for all my ruined childhood years...

today is the day of the only college football game that has ever truly mattered to me. Ohio State vs. that shit school up north. i can remember so many childhood years fucking ruined by a great Ohio State team losing to a team you simply are not allowed to lose to. Ohio State has won 7 years in a row. they have never won 8 in a row. so, i truly hope today is a history making one. it would be even better if an Ohio State win costs that fucking clown that runs the shit school from up north to lose his job. that would almost make up for all that shit so many years ago.

Trotwood continued its playoff run last night. they will now play for the state championship, again.

the season finale of Room 104 was excellent last night.

Smackdown and 205 Live were both really good last night.

the New York Rangers pissed away a 2 goal lead yesterday and lost at Boston, 3-2 in OT. the Rangers play this afternoon at New Jersey.

the trip to the grocery store turned into a fiasco yesterday. mom decided she wanted me to go to the drugstore to get some shit there. that took up 45 minutes of my life i will never get back. thankfully, the grocery store was basically empty.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

i will probably watch plenty of college football today.

i will hopefully be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays.

my sister came down this morning. her friend came over as well. they are cleaning as a gift to my mother.

when INXS: Live Baby Live was filmed, i was 15 years old. you can imagine the flood of memories that came rushing back when i watched it last night.

Smackdown and 205 Live were good last night.

Room 104 was pretty good last night.

the season finale of Real Time with Bill Maher was fucking hilarious last night. the show will be back in January.

Trotwood won again last night in the Ohio High School football playoffs. they have advanced to the Regional Finals next Friday.

the USMNT defeated Canada last night, 4-1. that was a wonderful surprise.

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live, ROH and NJPW.

the New York Rangers play tonight at the Florida Panthers. i won't get to see the game, but i'm pretty sure they can't play any worse than they did in Tampa the other night.

Ohio State plays today at Rutgers. it's the last game of Chase Young's suspension. hopefully, Ohio State will win easily once again.

the Dayton Flyers play at home tonight against Charleston Southern. the game is a sell out. my sister is going to the game with me. it's the first time she will have seen the completed arena.

i should be on here tomorrow before the New Orleans Saints play.

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

Trotwood won last night in Wapakoneta 33-21. that's a 7 seed beating a 2 seed on the road in the high school football playoffs.

Smackdown was good last night, as was 205 Live. if the WWE are going to give me The Fiend vs. Daniel Bryan, i'll be happy for the rest of 2019.

Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.

Room 104 was fucking excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be NJPW and ROH.

Ohio State plays at home today against Maryland. Chase Young, the best defensive player in all of college football, won't be playing today because of the antiquated NCAA rules. they shouldn't need him today.

the Dayton Flyers officially start their season today at home against Indiana State. the game is a sell out so i'll have to leave here early to get a decent parking spot. i'm really looking forward to this season for Dayton. they are fucking loaded.

i would love to watch LSU vs. Alabama today, but our local CBS station is still fucked up. i suppose that's what happens when you drag your feet on technology entering the 21st century.

i will probably be on here tomorrow in the morning, especially since Manchester United, the Rangers and the Saints all play around the same time tomorrow.

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

one of those big Saturdays...

today is one of those sports days where i will busy pacing the house, mumbling to myself, louder than i should be, angry as fuck at times and hopefully drinking my ass off at the end of the night.

before i get to that, a quick recap of last night...

when the New York Rangers got scored on 1 minute into the game last night, i thought oh fuck, here we go again. thankfully, that wasn't the case. The King shut the door from there on and Carolina's goalie opened it wide open for the Rangers. throw in a hat trick from Michael Grabner and the Rangers went on to win 5-1. that's a good response to their last loss. they have the weekend off and play next on Tuesday at Pittsburgh.

NJPW was excellent last night.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

i was a little surprised when the news broke last night that the New York Yankees were going to hire Aaron Boone to be their next manager. i have no damn clue how he's going to manage as he has no experience doing the job. but, he does come from a baseball family. and i remember the exact spot i was standing when he hit the home run back in 2003 to send the Yankees to the World Series. hell, i still remember what i said to my mother before the at bat... maybe this is when he becomes a Yankee. this is easily the biggest gamble Brian Cashman has ever taken as the Yankees general manager.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live, ROH and Michelle Wolf: Nice Lady.

Manchester United takes on Arsenal this afternoon. this is a big one. if United can manage to get a win today, they will at least keep their hopes of finishing in the top 2 of the league alive. a loss will muddy the waters greatly.

Ohio State takes on Wisconsin tonight for the Big 10 Championship. i'm not one of those Buckeyes fans that believe if Ohio State wins they are going to make the final 4. although, i would love to see it happen.

best of luck to Trotwood tonight as they try to win the Division III State Championship in football. i think i'll be able to find the game online. it's on at the same time that Ohio State is. so i might have to do some multitasking.

i know at some point this afternoon mom wants to go to the store as she forgot to ask me to get some ointment for her. the fact that she wants to come along means something else i'm sure. either that or she doesn't think i'll get the right one.

and on top of all that today, i probably should start figuring out where the fuck i'm going to send poems to next week. and on top of that, i should figure out which ones of my friends and fans are going to get what this Christmas.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

the two episodes of NJPW were excellent last night.

congrats to my old high school for advancing to the state title game in football.

the New York Rangers won 2-1 last night against Detroit in OT. they play again on Sunday afternoon against Vancouver.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

Manchester United plays here in a little bit against Brighton & Hove Albion. i'm hoping the boys can get a big victory today.

after that, it will be the game. Ohio State vs. the school up North. if Ohio State wants any chance to make the Final 4 in college football this season, they MUST WIN today.

tonight, the Dayton Flyers play at home against Akron. i'm hoping to see a better team than i saw on television playing down in Charleston.

i have no idea what mom will want to do after the game. i'm guessing a trip to Waffle House, but i have no clue how she will be feeling. for that matter, if a couple losses happen today, i doubt i will want to be seen in public either.

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

when i saw the news this morning that Malcolm Young had died, i was a bit sad. dementia is what my father died with. and 64 is way too young to go anymore. but, when i think about the music that Malcolm helped create in AC/DC, i can't help but think how that helped spark my creative fire, fueled the dreams of becoming a musician and got me through my youth. rest in peace Malcolm, tell Bon hello. thank you for the music.

Dayton rebounded nicely from its first loss of the season to beat Ohio University last night, 79-65. they got a much better whistle in this game and it showed. Josh Cunningham had 18 points and 19 rebounds last night. Darrell Davis, the only senior on the team, scored a career high 25 points in the victory. of course, since it's Dayton, there was an injury in the game. Trey Landers sprained his ankle and only played 4 minutes. he was on crutches and in a walking boot after the game. i'm hoping that's just precautionary shit. Jordan Davis played 30 minutes because of the injury. he had 10 points in his 3rd game in college. that certainly made his family and friends in attendance happy, that's for sure. Dayton will play in the 5th place game on Sunday against Old Dominion.

the New York Rangers lost to Columbus 2-0 last night. i didn't watch much of the game. i usually don't when the two teams play because i have to watch the Columbus broadcast (stupid broadcasting rules). the announcers for Columbus fucking suck. the Rangers will play at home on Sunday against Ottawa.

congrats to Trotwood for beating CJ last night 44-14. that makes it 8 straight years that Trotwood has made it to the state final 4 in football. when i went there, the football team was lucky to win 5 games at best. now, if they aren't playing around Thanksgiving, the season is a disappointment. 2 more wins until another state title.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

NJPW was excellent last night.

the season finale of Real Time with Bill Maher was fucking hilarious last night. the show returns in January.

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live, ROH, Austin City Limits and Night of Too Many Stars. i'll be watching NXT Takeover: War Games on WWE Network for most of the evening.

Manchester United plays today at home against Newcastle. i'm really hoping the boys can get a victory.

Ohio State plays today at home against Illinois. it's Senior Day, or how i like to call it, you weren't good enough to leave early day. hopefully they won't be looking ahead towards the game next week with that team up north.

i just put all my spices in the chili i've made for today. i'll probably do some cornbread later this evening. that should be a good dinner for what might be a nasty night of weather.

we're supposed to get 60 mph winds today and then maybe some fucking snow before the winds move out of the region. just fucking lovely.

i'll probably be on here tomorrow before the New Orleans Saints play in the afternoon.

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

euphoria meets a bad back

first off, Happy Veteran's Day to all of you who served this country. maybe one day this country will show you the respect you deserve. don't hold your breath though.

my back was killing me last night at the game. i couldn't get it loose for anything. so, imagine a miserable guy sitting next to a guy in his 50's acting like a jackass and saying whatever the fuck he wants because he believes the first amendment doesn't have any consequences. at one point during the game, i leaned over to my mother and said, this is how it's going to go this season. the first time he spills a beer on me, i'll let him know that's the one time he gets. the next will get him killed. she laughed. he apologized to all of us later in the second half, saying he just gets so passionate about basketball. Trump's America, now every jackass feels welcome in public. great.

as for the game, when Dayton held Ball State scoreless for the first 6:15 of the game, i was mildly surprised. Dayton of course took their foot off the gas, and most of that 14-0 advantage was gone by halftime. the second half was a game of runs. when it got down to the nitty gritty, Dayton was down by 1 with 1.9 seconds to play. Anthony Grant had them run a play that i have seen used my most elementary school teams in the past. lob it up to the big guy and let him shoot. holy shit, it worked. Josh Cunningham scored the winning shot at the buzzer and Dayton defeated Ball State 78-77. the last time Dayton won their opener at the buzzer, they went to the Elite 8. i wouldn't mind seeing that again. to win a game like that while missing a player (Matej Svoboda, migraines) and against a team that is good enough to win their conference this season; especially given how young Dayton is, they should feel ready for a great season. they next will play Hofstra in the Charleston Classic.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

NJPW was excellent last night.

the season finale of Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus was excellent last night. i really hope this has many more seasons to come.

Ohio State plays here in a few minutes against Michigan State. if Ohio State wants any chance to play for any kind of title this season, today is a MUST win.

the New York Rangers play at home today against Edmonton. i'd love to see the Rangers keep their winning streak going.

congrats to my old high school, Trotwood, for their victory over Dunbar last night, 64-26. they next will play CJ for the regional title. the dream for another state title in football is still alive.

my sister might show up here later today. thankfully, the t-shirt i got her for Christmas showed up yesterday.

that's all for me kids. i'm off to go watch some sports while icing down a bad back on a body riddled with arthritis. did i mention it was like 20 degrees when i went out to get the paper this morning? talk about some slow fucking steps in the cold.

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

a good start to the weekend

there wasn't any snow this morning, thankfully. we got 1.5 inches of rain overnight. no wonder i barely slept more than 4 hours. i was up in time to watch Manchester United play.

they had a HUGE game this morning against Tottenham. a loss would possibly send them 8 points behind Manchester City. thankfully, Anthony Martial made sure a loss wasn't going to happen in the 81st minute. his goal was all United needed to win 1-0. as of right now, they are only 2 points behind City. hopefully it stays that way in a few hours. another clean sheet at home. another well deserved 3 points.

the high school i went to won last night to complete a 10-0 regular season in high school football. the last time they had an undefeated season, they won the state championship. i wouldn't mind seeing Trotwood do that again.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

NJPW was excellent last night.

Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus was part 1 of the Waylon Jennings story. i laughed my ass off. i can't wait to see part 2 next week.

Real Time with Bill Maher was very good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The David S. Pumpkins Animated Halloween Special, SNL Presents: Halloween, ROH and Black Sabbath: The End of the End.

Ohio State has a HUGE game this afternoon at home against Penn State. if Ohio State wins today, they basically control their own destiny for the rest of the season for the playoffs.

even though my pain was killing me last night, i did get my laundry done, the toilets cleaned, my room dusted and i even vacuumed the damn house. joy.

the New York Rangers play tonight at Montreal. AV is starting the backup goalie again tonight. he believes he's the hot one at the moment. the team has 3 damn wins this season, no one is on a hot streak.

i need to get ready to go to the store to get mom's prescriptions. she said she might come along as i think they are doing a promotion for fuel points with gift cards. so, at least i'll know what i'm getting for Christmas this year.

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

VICE was very interesting last night.

NJPW was excellent last night.

the season finale of Treehouse Masters was very good last night.

Room 104 was really good last night.

Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus was fucking hilarious last night. think King of the Hill with stories about country music outlaws. fucking great.

Real Time with Bill Maher was fucking hilarious last night.

the New York Yankees lost 8-1 last night. their magic number to clinch the playoffs is down to 1. so, all they have to do is win this afternoon and they are in. since Boston won last night, their chances of winning the division are basically slim to none. they might as well go in on a victory.

the New York Rangers lost last night to the Islanders 2-1. if i can take any positive from the game, the power play did score again. they play again today at New Jersey.

at least the high school i went to won their football game last night, 59-0. so i gladly did some drinking for that.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

Manchester United plays Southampton this morning. i won't be able to watch the game because i refuse to pay $50 for a package to watch just one team. so, i'll follow the game online i suppose.

Ohio State takes on UNLV today. this should be a game where Ohio State wins comfortably. if it isn't, then there are some real problems with the team.

i think it's supposed to get up near 90 degrees today, so i imagine i will spend most of the day inside enjoying some air conditioning.

a night to forget

the only good thing that came from last night was the right amount of anger and alcohol can create some magical poems. i had a nice long writing session last night that created 8 really, really good poems. i typed them up this morning and they will definitely be used in the next round of submissions.

now, the drawback was i didn't get done until 3 in the morning. my brain didn't shut off until 6 in the morning. i woke up this morning at 9. you can imagine just how chipper i am.

the USA lost a game they really needed to win against Costa Rica last night, 2-0. i had a bad feeling as soon as the referee didn't give an obvious penalty against Costa Rica in the box early in the game. the USA was abysmal in the final third all night long, except for one amazing save from Navas. they now have to WIN in Honduras on Tuesday. 2 of their 3 remaining games to qualify are on the road. i guess we'll see just what the team is made of. if they don't qualify, it should be the wake up call US Soccer has needed for years.

the New York Yankees got 2 doubles to start off the game last night. they only got 2 more hits for the rest of it. the Yankees lost to Boston 4-1. oh well, hopefully they decide they would actually like to make the playoffs at some point before the season ends. the Yankees are currently up 1-0 this afternoon. hopefully they can get a victory.

thankfully, my high school i went to won their football game last night. (yes, i'm drinking for that, fuck you.)

Treehouse Masters was excellent last night.

i figure i will have to get a little sleep at some point today. after that, i will be watching Florida State against Alabama tonight. that's one of the biggest early college football games i can remember in a long time. #1 vs. #3.

other than that, given that it's not likely for the sun to appear again today, it's a day to get in my massage chair and sleep.

instant classic

sports are at their best when the hype of the event gets lived up to. yesterday's game between Ohio State and that team up north certainly is one of the best examples. the game had absolutely everything in it. Ohio State won 30-27 in double overtime. i will certainly remember this victory for a long time. now, Ohio State will have to see what the playoff committee does since Penn State will be playing in the Big 10 Championship game. i can't imagine they will take Ohio State out of the top 4.

hats off to the school up north's coach for showing his true colors after the game. whining about the officials like the true piece of shit he is. hopefully he never beats Ohio State and then runs back to coach in the NFL so he stops being an embarrassment to his school.

i could watch these videos for the rest of the year...

i was absolutely spent after the game. it felt like my heart was pounding through my chest. i feel comfortable knowing that one of these games will kill me one day.

ROH was excellent last night. Final Battle certainly looks very interesting this year.

Manchester United takes on West Ham later this morning. i'm really hoping they can get all 3 points today, they certainly need them.

the New Orleans Saints play against the Rams today. they are at home, so i'm hoping the good Saints team shows up today.

the Dayton Flyers play in the 5th place game today out in California against New Mexico. this will certainly be another test for the Flyers shorthanded big men. hopefully they can eek out a victory and have a happy flight home.

later tonight, the New York Rangers take on Ottawa. hopefully they can start another winning streak.

so, if all goes well, i'll be drinking all day long today. the life of a poet.

i will be on here tomorrow after i get back from taking mom to have her first injection done. if all goes well, i should be on here in the afternoon.

nothing says time with the family like my sister and i screaming at each other at the top of our lungs. add to it my mother screaming over both of us to shut the fuck up and you can clearly paint the picture of family fun. and to imagine it all started because i told my sister it was my mother's choice if she wanted to get rid of a handbag or not. that lead to the usual saying shit you didn't really mean until i had had enough and decided to unload on everyone. this took me to a pretty dark place as it all goes back to me being molested as a child and just completely feeling like no one in my family has ever given a shit about it. i still laugh at my sister asking me what she was supposed to do. she was dumbfounded when i walked up to her and said all you had to do was put your arm around me and tell me everything was going to be ok. i went to my room and more or less wrote my suicide note. now, before you get concerned and run to call the cops, i'm not close to doing anything crazy. i just figured since i was in the dark place i might as well try to get something out of it. and boy did i. i must say, it is probably the coldest ending to a poem i have EVER written. now, the crazy thing will be when i send out to possibly be published and it gets rejected. i'm not sure how i'm going to feel if that happens. anywho, later in the evening, before dinner, my mother asked me to come into the room and speak to my sister. i tried to be the adult and calmly let my sister know that she gives me the vibe that i'm nothing more than a piece of shit since i don't make money and contribute to the world like she does. she more or less said i am. then, she dug the hole that i'm using my mother and my stepfather's death as a crutch and not doing anything with my life. if i truly was the piece of shit she thinks i am, i would have punched her in the face after that one. but, i was playing the adult after all. so, long story short, i asked my sister to simply give me the illusion that she gives a shit and i will try to be a better brother. i think we both know, she's not capable of even doing that. so, i can't wait until Christmas.

thankfully, the New York Rangers were a bright spot to my day, beating the Flyers 3-0 in Philly. congrats to Marty St. Louis on getting his 1,000th point in the game. the teams play in New York later on Saturday. i will miss most of the game because of the basketball game i will be at, but hopefully it goes just like today's game. here are the highlights:

Saturday is shaping up to be a busy ass sports day for me. Manchester United plays in the morning. i took my shower tonight so i can watch the game. shortly after that is done, Ohio State plays the team i fucking hate. but, soon after that starts, mom and i will be leaving to go to the Dayton Flyers game against UIC. and while we're at UD Arena, i'll be checking on the football game and the Rangers hockey game. hopefully when we get back home, i can start enjoying some victory beers.

i did catch Sonic Highways earlier tonight on HBO. another excellent episode. it truly took me back to the 90's for sure. it was kind of eerie as a good chunk of the episode was about Kurt Cobain's suicide. and given the events of my day, that certainly hit me hard. next week is the series finale. the show will be about New York City. that should be awesome.

i'm pretty sure there is no new Saturday Night Live this week, so all i'll be watching late Saturday night is a new episode of ROH.

the high school i went to lost in the state playoffs earlier tonight. first senior class that hasn't made it to the finals in 5 years. i feel sorry for those guys as that will be on them for the rest of their lives.

that's all for me. maybe i'll actually get some sleep tonight. i'll be on here sometime on Sunday with the complete rundown of my crazy ass Saturday. i hope everyone has a great weekend. hopefully yours has a little less screaming in it.

thanks again for allowing me to waste a few minutes of your precious time.

be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.

peace and chicken grease...
