Game 7

 i love when a series gets to a Game 7. now, i have been on both sides of the outcomes. it is always amazing when your team wins a Game 7. it is absolutely brutal when your team loses one. those are the sports scars that last forever. hopefully, tonight will be one of those great memories when the New York Rangers play at New Jersey. both road teams won last night in Game 7. i hope that continues tonight.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

the New York Knicks lost Game 1 yesterday at home against Miami, 108-101.

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs yesterday:

the New York Yankees got swept yesterday at Texas, 15-2. they start a series at home tonight against Cleveland.

Succession was excellent last night.

Barry was amazing last night.

Somebody Somewhere was hilarious last night.

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT as usual.

Power Book II: Ghost was really good last night.

Waco: The Aftermath was good last night.

mom has an appointment with her heart doctor this afternoon. after that, i need to make a deposit at the bank. 

i will probably watch some of the NBA playoffs tonight on top of Game 7 between the Rangers and Devils.

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

 i did make a trip to the bank today. i hate that i have to drive even farther to get to a Chase bank now. oh well. after i made that deposit, i headed to Lee's because mom wanted some chicken and mac & cheese for lunch today. of course, Lee's didn't have the chicken she wanted, so i just got her the mac & cheese. thankfully, there wasn't a line at Wendy's and i know she can have the grilled chicken there. i used the bread for a sandwich for the chicken i got from Lee's. i have to have a rolodex in my head of what she can eat with her sodium restrictions at all times. if i go insane anytime soon, everyone should understand why.

the day after...

 so, Christmas went pretty good yesterday. i believe my mother and my sister both liked what i got them. they got me a single cup coffee maker that i totally wasn't expecting. i figured i was going to start experimenting with stronger coffee when mom died. so, i guess that journey will begin sooner now. we had Cornish hens for our Christmas dinner. i can't remember how long it has been since i had one of them. i think next year, we're going to do wings in the air fryer. my sister's friends got me a bottle of gin. i sent back some alcohol with my sister for them. 

i did watch plenty of the NBA yesterday. here are some highlights:

AEW Rampage was really good last night.

thankfully, it didn't rain all day yesterday. and today is supposed to be dry, at least until tonight.

 so, i got to sleep last night/this morning at 5:30 AM. i was up 3 hours later. joy.

since mom's sciatic nerve is killing her, she asked me to do the dishes last night. there wasn't much of them thankfully, but my bad back doesn't allow me to stand for more than 15 minutes at a time. good times.

the Dayton Flyers whipped Alabama State last night, 93-54. their defense is starting to remind me of Anthony Grant's teams at VCU. they play again at home on Saturday.

the New York Rangers beat Philadelphia last night, 4-1. the Rangers are better than i think anyone expected this season.

AEW Dynamite was really good last night.

The Masked Singer was great last night. i got the Skunk correct. i always knew it was Faith Evans.

Manchester United plays today at home against Arsenal. i really hope United finds a way to win today.

the New Orleans Saints play tonight at home against Dallas. the Saints will be without plenty of star players again tonight. hopefully, they pull off the upset. Dallas are 6 point favorites.

i think mom might be giving me a check today, so i might try to go to the bank before the Manchester United game.

she did end up canceling her appointment today. what she is afraid of is her nerve problem won't get any better anytime soon, so she may have to cancel her surgery for her skin cancer next week.

until tomorrow kids...

 i took a shower this morning, mostly because my back was killing me. this isn't exactly how i was hoping 2021 would start for me.

Manchester United won yesterday 1-0. they should have scored more, but i'll gladly take the victory and moving on in the FA Cup.

i did watch a good portion of all 3 NFL playoff games yesterday. nothing really surprised me. 

The King of Staten Island was pretty funny last night.

Austin City Limits was a best of episode of the two times the Foo Fighters had been on the show.

ROH was a best of last night as well.

the New Orleans Saints play the middle of the 3 NFL playoff games today at home against Chicago. it looks the Saints might actually be "healthy" for the game today. i'm really hoping they whip the Bears today and go on a run to the Super Bowl.

the other playoff games today are the Ravens vs. Titans and Browns vs. Steelers.

i did do a little poetry work before i went to bed last night. i think i know where my next 29 poems are going.

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

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

some more adventures with pain...

so my left leg started killing me in the last 12 hours or so. i'm not sure if it's the knee or hip or phantom pains from the blood clots over a decade ago, etc. etc. stretching hasn't helped much and there isn't anything stronger than tylenol in the house, other than bourbon. and i wasn't planning on my 40's for being the time i drank the pain away. that was scheduled for my 50's.

i was certainly stunned last night when Becky Lynch told the world she was pregnant and was giving the title up to Asuka. that made for a pretty memorable and weird Monday Night Raw.

The Voice was good last night. they are going down from 9 to the final 5 tonight. i have no clue who is going to make the finals.

Songland was pretty good last night.

Axios was good last night.

Fuck That's Delicious was hilarious last night.

it did get pretty cold last night, and i'm certain that did my arthritis no favors. i'm also suspecting that my leg pain could be from arthritis. joy.

i need to pick up the trash here and next door. so, that's all for me kids.

i should be on here tomorrow after a trip to the grocery store.

stay healthy.

wash your fucking hands...

welcome to my busy day

today is one of those days where one event just sort of bleeds into the next and i will barely have time to fucking think or shit. good times.

more on that in a bit.

my sister stopped by here last night. the first thing she did was hand my mom a pamphlet about an old folks home. i believe my sister thought it was funny but if she saw mom's face, she would have realized it wasn't. and since she came at night, she didn't notice anything that we had done with the house until we started to point it out to her. my sister has always had this amazing ability to not give a shit about anything that wasn't about her in some way. and with that, she only chooses to remember the good shit. it's this willful ignorance she has that must be fucking bliss i suppose. i have never lived on that planet and probably never will.

Austin City Limits was excellent last night.

ROH was really good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be the finale of America to Me, The Deuce, Camping, Last Week Tonight, Ray Donovan and Kidding. i will be watching WWE Evolution for most of the evening. it's the first all female ppv for WWE, so i'm hoping it's really good.

if i have any luck, i will take a shower before Manchester United plays at noon. they are taking on Everton. i'm hoping the boys can find a victory today.

after that, the New York Rangers play the LA Kings out in Los Angeles. hopefully, the Rangers will get a victory today.

and tonight, the New Orleans Saints go back to the scene of the crime when they play at Minnesota. that loss last year in the playoffs is still fucking fresh to me. i'd love to see the Saints get a victory.

with any luck, i will be enjoying 3 drinks tonight while catching up on the shows.

i think i found another place to send poems to. i want to write some more before i send to them though, since there is money involved.

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

there's a sadist inside of me...

whenever something is off in my world, it never fails that i wake up each morning by a cramp in my left leg. that has happened 3 different times in the last week. this morning, the cramp was in my right leg. i'm not exactly sure what the fuck is going on, except most likely impending doom. of course, when the last thing you remember before going to bed was a black woman telling you the immense joy she gets from a warm water enema, i suppose a cramp in the right leg is par for the fucking course.

the guys from Best Buy got here at a decent time yesterday. they were pretty efficient, even though the company does shit ass backwards. instead of having the guy that was installing the new television take the old television, they had a completely different crew come out and get that. the new television and sound bar look great and worked perfectly yesterday. the guy set it up so the DirecTV remote controls everything. that makes it pretty easy. and thankfully, mom doesn't have to crank the television louder than fuck to hear it anymore.

Manchester United was held to a draw yesterday at home against Wolves, 1-1. it's probably a good thing i wasn't able to see the game.

Ohio State whipped Tulane yesterday 49-6. this sets up the huge game next week at Penn State.

the New York Yankees defeated Baltimore yesterday 3-2 in 11 innings. and since Tampa lost earlier in the day, the victory clinched a playoff spot for the Yankees. now, next up will be clinching home field for the wild card game. the Yankees will hopefully get the sweep of the Orioles this afternoon.
today is the last home game of the regular season.

the New York Rangers lost to the New York Islanders 5-2 last night. probably a good thing i didn't see that game either.

ROH was pretty damn good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, The Deuce, Ballers, Insecure, Last Week Tonight, America to Me, Shameless and Kidding.

the New Orleans Saints play this afternoon at Atlanta. i'd really love to see the Saints beat the shit out of the Falcons. it's a game the Saints really need as they have already lost one division game this season.

when we opened up the house yesterday, the temperature in here dropped from 74 to 68 in a matter of minutes. i think the new windows and insulation we did awhile back are doing their job.

i think there is supposed to be some rain moving back in the area by tomorrow. of course, i have shit to do.

i'll be on here tomorrow sometime in the afternoon. mom wants to get her hair cut at some point this week. i probably need one as well. if the weather is decent and she's up for it, i'm hoping to get that done on Monday.

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

i forgot how much i don't like snow

ever since my arthritis has basically taken over my body, i can't stand trying to walk on snow. it's not that i'm paralyzed with fear, it's more that i feel like with my bones aching, if i take a wrong step, down i go. of course, the same is true for carpet, cement, grass, whatever. i never have been a fan of driving in it. i'm bitching about all this because it snowed here yesterday. nothing major, just enough for all the stupid fucks to forget about how to drive in the winter. thankfully, i only skidded once yesterday. it got a little slicker as the day went on. i was hoping it was going to stop once we got to the basketball game. it didn't stop until well after i went to sleep.

what i feared with the Dayton Flyers hiring Anthony Grant to be the coach is coming true. Dayton was outplayed, and worse, out coached by Penn yesterday, 78-70. that's the first time Dayton has EVER lost to an Ivy League team. i wasn't happy when Dayton was down 21-7 to start the game. but they dug out of that hole and even took the lead in the first half. they game was tied at 35 at halftime. when i saw in the paper that Josh Cunningham, the only player on the team that is consistent this season, said it felt like if we just would have played harder, we would have won, i wanted to vomit. at least the coach put it on himself for not getting the team ready to play as hard as they need to. what truly pisses me off is Dayton went out and hired a coach they knew wasn't going to leave them for a better job. sadly, some of the fucking fools in charge believe Dayton is Duke. that there is no better job than Dayton. fucking fools. they should have went out and found the next Archie Miller and continued to build on that success. instead, they desired mediocrity. that's exactly what they will get. the team is off for a week for finals. i would hate to stew on that loss for that long.

mom wanted to go to Waffle House after the game. thankfully, it wasn't too busy. and the snow was never bad enough that i felt like we should just go home. although, after that loss, i would have loved to go to a bar and just get fucking wasted.

the New York Rangers beat New Jersey last night 5-2. i had the game on as background noise as i was making my sister's Christmas CD. this was a much better job than the previous night against Washington. it's amazing how much easier it is to win when you score first. the Rangers play tomorrow night at home against Dallas.

ROH was excellent last night.

Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Shameless and SMILF.

basically, today is all about Manchester United vs. Manchester City. the result of that game will be my mood for the rest of the day. hopefully, for my mother's sake, United wins.

i'll be on here tomorrow after a trip to the grocery store to pick up two of my prescriptions and a trip to the bank to deposit some money.

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

and through anger comes a diamond...

Ohio State pissed me off so much that i didn't even bother to watch the whole game. i walked away, poured myself a tall glass of Jack Daniels and Coke, went to my room, turned on some music and just started to write. and write. and write some more. by the end, i just figured to finish off the damn notebook. 12 poems in all. i'll type them up this afternoon while the football games are on. i have no rooting interest with the games today.

Ohio State got their asses whipped by Oklahoma last night, 31-16. if Ohio State wouldn't have caused some turnovers in the first half, Oklahoma would have hung 50 on them last night. judging from the first 2 games, the Buckeyes are probably the 3rd or 4th best team in the Big Ten right now. if they don't improve quickly, it's going to be a long season.

Manchester United was held to a 2-2 draw yesterday at Stoke City. they are still in first place, but only by goal differential now. they play again on Tuesday in the Champions League. i'll miss most of that since the game is on at the same time as mom's cataract surgery on her left eye.

the lone bright spot yesterday was the New York Yankees. they got some great pitching yesterday and scored a few runs late to beat Texas 3-1. hopefully they will win the series this afternoon.

ROH was excellent last night. i could watch The Young Bucks wrestle air for the next 20 years and be entertained.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Big Brother, Ballers, Insecure, Last Week Tonight, The Strain, Ray Donovan and Episodes.

i figure after i type up those poems, i'll flip around all the NFL games. i still have the Sunday Ticket package even though i'm no longer playing fantasy football. since mom's team is the Jets and mine is the Saints, it's the only way we could see every game that isn't on national television.

i'll be on here tomorrow in the afternoon most likely. i know i have to make a trip to the grocery store tomorrow as i just realized this morning i was getting low on my prescriptions. that's my last refill until my next visit to the doctor in October.

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better. for those of you that didn't try to flee the hurricane, why the fuck are you reading this? be safe and hopefully the flooding won't be catastrophic.

nothing quite like running a vacuum during a damn tornado

well, not quite a tornado but the wind was whipping somewhere around 80 mph while i was running the vacuum in the kitchen. i had to vacuum the whole house today because mom sneezed. i truly love that she is getting crazier as she gets older. like she's going to out-crazy me. please.

the storm knocked down some huge limbs here in the cul-de-sac. i had some solar lights come out of the ground. and of course that's in the part of our front yard that floods.

i did watch a good portion of the Home Run Derby last night. if the world didn't know about Aaron Judge before last night, they sure as hell know who is now.

Monday Night Raw was pretty good last night. i especially liked that they decided to keep Samoa Joe in the main event picture. and thank god the Kurt Angle drama will come to a head next week.

The Defiant Ones, Part 2 last night was mostly about N.W.A. i can still remember exactly where i was the first time i heard Fuck Tha Police.

i did write one poem last night after mom's physical therapy session. i haven't typed it up yet. i'm hoping a few more pop in my head before the end of the week.

i had a pretty good trip to the bank yesterday. the one teller that sort of knows who i am, who just happens to be this cute black woman as well, was the one working yesterday. she saw me walk up and smiled. i figure i'm reading too much into that. i made a quick one liner that made her laugh, which i took as a good sign. not good enough for me to engage further or anything. but... she did call me Mr. Campbell when she handed me my receipt. that's a good way to make me feel fucking old.

i just love watching a weather forecast where the genius on television basically says your guess is as good as mine where this will end up going. a winter storm is supposed to hit here tomorrow night and basically fuck up all of Sunday and maybe Monday. but they don't know if we're going to get snow, rain, a mix, or what... good times.

today has been laundry day. i figured i better wear clean clothes to the basketball game tomorrow.

i woke myself up this morning with a fart. a fart that happened to sound like a fucking shotgun going off. it felt like i blew out the back of my shorts. thank god i don't sleep nude anymore. i've ruined enough sheets in my life.

i only have 1 gift left to come to the house. thankfully, this one should fit in the mailbox, so i won't have to check constantly. i hate that these fucks out here just bring a package to the door and set it down and leave. and they wonder why there are thieves in the world.

my last load of laundry is just about done in the dryer, so that's all for me kids.

there's always something...

i wrote 5 poems last night and typed them up this afternoon. i think 2 of them are really fucking good. as for the other 3, who knows. i'm probably going to send some poems out on Thursday.

i was really pumped for Dayton's game at Alabama this afternoon. i hate watching college basketball games where the officials think the fans or the ones watching on television are there to see them. it drives me nuts. adding to that, Dayton couldn't make a free throw to save their fucking life at times today. thankfully, they came from behind to win the game 77-72. sadly, they had a major (or hopefully not) injury at the end of the game to Josh Cunningham. considering Dayton is already playing shorthanded, another loss on the front line will be devastating. they next play at home on Saturday against Saint Mary's, who happens to be ranked at 17 in the polls.

The Voice last night was really good. only a couple of the performances weren't great. here are a few i really enjoyed:

Gotham was spectacular last night. the show just keeps getting better.

the HBO documentary last night, Underfire: The Untold Story of Pfc. Tony Vaccaro was very interesting. i'm a big fan of anything that has to do with WWII. i highly recommend watching this if you get the chance.

Monday Night Raw was good last night, but it isn't that high of a bar to reach to get to good any longer. i do like that Survivor Series is shaping up to be a good one.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice, Scream Queens, Smackdown and David Blaine: Beyond Magic.

i might also watch some college basketball games tonight as well.

the New York Rangers play at Vancouver tonight. hopefully they get a victory.

at the same time, team USA will be playing a World Cup qualifying game in Costa Rica. the USA really needs a result in this game. a loss will put them really behind in qualifying. sadly, i don't like their chances tonight.

i had to do some running for mom today after the Dayton game. she forgot to mail a bill out, so i had to make a dash to the bank for her. plus, she had 4 prescriptions that needed to be picked up. apparently today was the day for computers to fuck up as i had to wait at both the bank and the grocery store. as i was waiting at the grocery store, i remembered i forgot to eat lunch today. good times.

all the trash is picked up and i'm ready to take a damn nap.

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...
