imagine if i could get more than 4 hours of sleep...

 i woke up this morning and took my Rybelsus before i had to go shit. thankfully, i made it this time. i fed the birds this morning. it is going to be a dry week, so i figured i better get some suet out there for them. i almost got 4 hours of sleep last night. i can't sleep in my bed with how my left arm is feeling. i can't find a comfortable spot for it. good times.


the Yankees won yesterday at the Cubs, 2-0. hopefully, they will get the sweep this afternoon.




the USMNT lost to Canada yesterday, 2-1.





Ohio State whipped Western Michigan last night, 56-0.



i did watch plenty of college football yesterday.








enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Industry, Last Week Tonight and Power Book II: Ghost.


the New Orleans Saints play today at home against Carolina.


i will probably be on here tomorrow in the afternoon, most likely.


i need to go ice my back down and get ready for the NFL games today.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.

goodbye to the logo...

 i actually got sleep last night. a little over 4 hours in my massage chair. i was taking my blood sugar this morning and the news flashed on my phone just as i was watching the Dan Patrick Show. Jerry West had died. i knew Dan was going to be crushed by this as i have seen over the years what Jerry West meant to the show. as someone that loves basketball, Jerry West is one of those Mount Rushmore guys that are bigger than life. the man is the logo of the NBA. there was probably no classier man that has lived on this earth. if you don't know much about him, do yourself a favor and dive down the rabbit hole and learn everything. it will be worth your time.












the grocery shopping went pretty well today, other than my back pain. now, on the way home, i was stuck downwind from a fertilizer truck. and i'm supposed to believe people when they tell me god loves me.


the New York Yankees won last night at the Royals, 10-1. hopefully, they will win again tonight.






NXT was very good last night.










Deadliest Catch was very good last night as well.


enjoy some music:







and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite and NJPW.


the USMNT takes on Brazil tonight in a friendly.




Game 3 of the NBA Finals is tonight. Boston is up 2-0. the game tonight is at Dallas.



i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow in the late morning. the Yankees play tomorrow afternoon so i would like to have the blog done before that happens. plus, tomorrow is most likely going to be laundry day.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.

wash your fucking hands.


stay off the fucking streets.

i guess winter wants another go...

 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.







Saturday Night Live was hilarious last night.







here are your NBA highlights from last night:



enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be Power Book III: Raising Kanan, Hightown, The Woman in the Wall and True Detective Night Country.


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.


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


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.

nothing like finishing the dishes at 4 in the morning

 it was a late one last night/this morning. i was up watching the Women's World Cup, as was my mother. i knew i needed to get the dishes done. when mom decides she wants to cook, she dirties up as many dishes and pots and pans as possible it seems. i'm a little more simple when i cook. one or two skillets and away we go. i got all the dishes done by 4 in the morning. i was dead tired and there was mom playing some game on her iPad. i laughed and asked her what she wanted for brunch in the morning as i knew there was zero chance she would be up before noon. i was asleep by 5 AM and up again at 9:20 this morning. joy.


i did make it to Rite Aid today to pick up the prescription i knew was ready and one that i had no clue was being refilled. at least there was no cost for either.


Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night.










enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be NXT, Don't Forget the Lyrics and Dark Side of the Ring. i'll watch Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge tomorrow on Peacock.


Manchester United's youth squad will play Wrexham tonight in San Diego, that should be a fun one to watch.




the Yankees start a series tonight at home against the Mets.


the Leagues Cup is back tonight as well. i might watch some of that. as well as the Women's World Cup.


i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done.


until then kids...

fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.

hopefully, it was a fluke...

 the New York Rangers played a pretty good Game 1 last night. of course, it wasn't good enough. the Rangers lost at Carolina, 2-1 in OT. the winning goal came off a Rangers defenseman and went in. fuck me. hopefully, the Rangers can win Game 2 Friday night.






the Battle of Alberta didn't disappoint last night. Calgary won over Edmonton, 9-6.



here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:






the season finale of The Masked Singer was good last night.


AEW Dynamite was really good last night.


the New York Yankees won last night, 3-2. they go for the sweep of Baltimore this afternoon.





enjoy some music:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, the season finale of Young Sheldon, the series finale of United States of Al, two episodes including the series finale of How We Roll, the season finale of Atlanta, NJPW and Desus & Mero. i'll watch NXT UK sometime tonight on Peacock.


i'm not sure if mom is going to go to physical therapy or not today. she is pretty sore from yesterday, which i completely understand.


i need to go to Rite Aid later today to get the prescriptions i forgot to call in earlier this week.


whenever i am on here tomorrow, it will be between loads of laundry. i need to get the rest of mom's done today.


have a good one kids...

let the madness begin...

 so tonight is Game 1 of the New York Rangers playoff series against Pittsburgh. i am so fucking pumped because i truly believe this team has a chance to do something special this season. hopefully, i won't be broken in two like other seasons.





mom's appointment went well today. they did find some pre-cancer on her cheek and the bridge of her nose. but, they believe this cream they are prescribing for her will take care of that in 10 days. the spot where she had surgery on looks really good.


i went to the bank this morning to make a deposit. of course, it had to be fucking raining today.


i did get my order from Walk Off Wax yesterday. the best card i got in the packs was a 1987 Fleer Bo Jackson card. that made me happy.


for any of you happy that the Supreme Court is most likely going to overturn Roe v. Wade, please answer me this question. how many kids are you planning to adopt? if the answer is 0, then you fucking should understand why abortion should always be legal. if we are going back to the days of bloody hangers in back alleys, i can't wait to see how crazy this shit is really going to get. and trust me, when the rich kids get raped, they will still get their abortions. 


American Song Contest was good last night. i can't wait for the finals.


Monday Night Raw was good last night.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

welcome to August...

 hard to believe its fucking August already. damn.


so, the Yankees won again last night down in Miami over the Marlins, 4-2. Anthony Rizzo hit another homer. i can't wait to see the ovation he gets in the Bronx. hopefully, the Yankees will get the sweep this afternoon.

just a little sunshine...

 the sun came out today. that lifted my mood a great deal. i went to the bank and made a deposit. after that, i headed down to Big Lots to see if they had any baseball cards. i did buy some 2020 Topps Heritage while i was there. i also watched a fun little argument between this older black woman and an employee at the store. i was pleasantly surprised at the number of times motherfucker was used in the argument. i did get some pretty decent cards today. nothing crazy, but it was close to being worth what i paid..


the New Orleans Saints won yesterday at Carolina, 33-7. the defense had 5 interceptions yesterday. the offense managed to be pretty balanced, even with all the regular running backs out. they will play next Sunday at home against the Bears in the first round of the playoffs.







the season finale of Power Book II: Ghost was fucking crazy last night. loved it.


Shameless was hilarious last night.


Your Honor was very good last night.



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:







on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and Monday Night Raw. i'll be watching the World Juniors for most of the evening.


Canada vs. Russia is the first semifinal at the World Juniors tonight. Canada is up 1-0 at the moment. after that game is over, the USA takes on Finland. the winners will play for the gold medal tomorrow night.


i did listen to episode 324 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can listen to that by going here:



Canada is up 2-0 now.


i hope everyone had a great weekend.


i should be on here tomorrow in the morning, long before Dayton plays tomorrow night.

hello frustration, my name is...

 so, late last night i found out that the Ohio State game at Illinois today was canceled. and then this morning, i found out that Dayton's season opener against Alcorn St. has been canceled due to a positive test on Alcorn St. this is going to be one of the more frustrating years for being a fan. hell, between the NFL, college sports and everything else, i have no damn clue what i'll be watching until a few hours before everything is supposed to begin. and of course, since most people are slaves to capitalism in this country, everything has to keep going. an endless cycle of greed.


Smackdown and 205 Live were both really good last night.






my sister left this morning to go back home. she found out while she was here that one of her close friends has tested positive. thankfully, she hasn't been around her anytime lately. 


enjoy some music:




and now some of this and that:







on the DVR tonight will be ROH.


i should be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays in the morning.


i think i'm going to take a shower and hopefully get a haircut. if all goes well, i'll be back home in time to watch Alabama vs, Auburn this afternoon.


i hope everyone has a great Saturday.


support the small businesses today if you can.

where does the time go...

 i really hate the new Blogger format. i'm sure i'll come to adjust to it, but i will be kicking and screaming all the fucking way.

i was up until 7 this morning. but, i finally got a nibble on the baseball cards. i'm really hoping this sale will go through, as i need the fucking money.

the Yankees hit seven home runs last night and defeated the Blue Jays, 13-2. this was the first time in franchise history they hit six or more home runs in back to back games. holy shit. they go for the sweep tonight.


NXT was really good last night.


AEW was fucking crazy last night. loved it.

Cari & Jemele Stick to Sports was really good last night.

i did record The Jesus Rolls last night. i'm saving that for a rainy day to watch.

enjoy some music:



and now some of this and that:






on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, the season finale of Holey Moley, Big Brother and Desus & Mero. i'll watch NXT UK sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i will probably watch some of the NFL game tonight between the Bengals and Browns. hell, that might put me to sleep again. i think the NHL and NBA playoffs are on tonight as well.

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

until then kids...

fight the power.

this death hit me like a ton of bricks...

so when my mother told me last night that Justin Townes Earle had died, my heart sunk. i was a huge fan of his music. his stories always resonated with me. his struggles with addiction always hit home. and i was really hoping he had turned the corner with his life, the new child, etc. and to die at 38 is so fucking tragic. so yeah, i've been playing his songs on repeat for the last 24 hours or so. thanks for all these songs. you will be always remembered and sadly missed.

the season finale of The Chi was a little subdued last night. i'm interested to see where it goes from here.

We Hunt Together was good last night.

Desus & Mero was hilarious last night.

Big Brother was good last night.

Lovecraft Country was excellent last night.

The Vow was pretty interesting last night.

Last Week Tonight was brilliant as usual.

WWE SummerSlam was okay last night and then last 3 matches really were awesome. i loved that Asuka won the Raw Women's title. i love that Drew defeated Randy Orton. and i was fine with The Fiend winning the Universal Championship over Braun, mostly because of what happened next. the surprise return of Roman Reigns, and he returned as a heel. this is going to be fun.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and the season finale of I May Destroy You. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

i did listen to episode 305 of Notsam Wrestling this morning. you can find that by going here:

here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:

i did watch the Champions League final yesterday. Bayern Munich defeated PSG 1-0.

mom's doctor's appointment was this afternoon thankfully. we went to Waffle House afterwards. it was hot enough today that she went to sleep right after she got home.

i'll probably watch some of the NHL and NBA playoffs tonight during wrestling.

my fingers are crossed that the Yankees are actually going to be playing tomorrow. if that happens, i'll be on here before the game.

i know it's supposed to rain here tomorrow, so i'll probably be in some pain while writing. joy.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck the police.

wash your fucking hands.
