 i remember getting into my chair and putting on the Champions League game around 12:50 or so this afternoon. i woke up 4 hours later to silence and was stunned. i guess i needed the sleep. 


the New York Rangers won last night at home against the Islanders, 4-0. back to back shutouts. didn't see that coming.





The Voice was very good last night. the blinds are now over. 







Monday Night Raw was great last night.







enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT.


the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against Saint Louis. this is a MUST WIN game if they want a top 4 seed in the A10 conference tournament.


i will not watch Orange Hitler's address to congress tonight. i'm sure my phone will alert me to the lies and bullshit.


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


i now need to figure out dinner and get ready to watch the game.

it doesn't feel like fall just yet...

 it hasn't rained here in a few weeks. hopefully, that might change later this afternoon. i need to do my laundry today. hopefully, i can do that mostly pain free. i know, that's a fucking dream.


Ohio State defeated Marshall yesterday, 49-14.




Manchester United played a 0-0 draw yesterday at Crystal Palace.



i did watch plenty of college football yesterday.






the Yankees won last night at Oakland, 10-0. hopefully, they will get the sweep today. the Yankees magic number to win the AL East is 3.





AEW Collision was ok last night.

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

well, here comes summer again...

 when it gets hot around this time of year, i always wonder which person around here will be the first to say fuck it and start a fire in their back yard. we have a no burn warning due to the drought and it never fails, some fucker will light something up. i really worried about it when i lived on the farm for those 18 years. the wind we would get out there... you can easily tell how a wildfire would move so damn fast. i did get some weeds pulled today and took care of the dying tomato plant. since the trash goes out tonight, perfect day to get that done.


the New York Yankees won last night at home against the Royals, 10-4. hopefully, they will win again tonight. Baltimore lost, so the lead in the AL East is now up to 1 1/2 games.



i did watch some of the 49ers vs. Jets game last night. between the two Jets fans i know, the muse and my mother, neither were really happy last night.




the season finale of Name That Tune was good last night.


Monday Night Raw was really good last night.





enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT and Deadliest Catch.


the USMNT plays a friendly tonight against New Zealand.


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


i need to pick up the trash and get dinner going, so that's all for me today.


until tomorrow my friends...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck war.


fuck the police.

stay healthy.

it rained all night long...

 at least that is what my body is telling me. i didn't sleep worth a shit and i still ache. joy. i did write 3 more poems last night. i know where i'm sending 18 poems to, most likely later today.


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







the Dayton Flyers lost last night at VCU, 49-47. 


the New York Rangers tried their hardest to lose last night. they pissed away a 2 goal lead in the 3rd period but ended up winning in OT, 4-3.





here are your NBA highlights from last night:



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









AEW Rampage was good last night.



Real Time with Bill Maher was excellent last night.






enjoy some music:








and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be AEW Collision and Austin City Limits.


i'm sure i will watch plenty of soccer and college basketball today.


i need to go to Rite Aid to pick up a prescription and then go to Lowe's to find what i couldn't find at Menards yesterday.


i will probably be on here later today after i send the poems out.


i'm pretty sure i have all the food for the Super Bowl tomorrow.


i do hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday.

hello anger, it's me again...

 i wrote two poems last night, one about burning the candle at both ends again. this is a common theme in my poetry when i take a turn to living on the knife's edge so to speak. i'm restless in a sense. i know what i want to do but i don't have the means to do that and every time i think i'm taking a positive step in the right direction i end up getting punched in the dick again. i believe most people just call this life. i never cared for being like most people.

the Dayton Flyers won last night at VCU, 62-58. considering the injuries and foul trouble Dayton had last night, this was very unexpected, but needed. Dayton plays at home on Friday against Saint Louis.


the New York Knicks won last night at Orlando, 102-98.





here are your NBA highlights from last night:



i did watch a little of LeBron James becoming the NBA all-time leading scorer last night.






NXT was pretty good last night.








both episodes of MLW last night were pretty good.



enjoy some music:





and now some of this and that:











on the DVR tonight will be AEW Dynamite and Name That Tune.


so, i did get the grocery shopping done before the Manchester United game started today. for the first 60 minutes of the game, i wish i would have been stuck at Kroger still waiting in line. thankfully, Rashford and Sancho scored to get a 2-2 draw against Leeds. i'm still pissy they dropped 2 points when they had the chance to draw even with Manchester City on points in second place. oh well.







i guess we're supposed to have some crazy fucking wind here starting tonight into tomorrow. like gusts to 50 to 60 MPH. so, i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.


the New York Rangers play at home tonight against Vancouver.



i do have some NBA and NHL bets tonight, as well as a college basketball parlay. hopefully they go better than my Manchester United bet today. 


ok, that's all for me today.

at least the rain has ended...

 so, i made a little money on the NFL playoff game last night. i would have made more, but that bum Mike Evans, as usual, couldn't catch a damn cold when he needed to. that dropped pass in the 4th quarter basically cost me $65. oh well. at least Tampa lost last night to Dallas, 31-14.





the New York Rangers won last night in Columbus, 3-1.








the New York Knicks lost at home yesterday in OT to Toronto, 123-121.




here are your NBA highlights from yesterday:



Monday Night Raw was very good last night.





enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be NXT.


so we did get all of the Christmas shit put away last night. now we have to rearrange the living room. i'm not sure when we will get that done.


the Dayton Flyers play tonight at home against Davidson. i've got a college basketball parlay going tonight with Dayton, South Carolina and Kansas St. if all 3 win, i'll make a little money tonight.


the USWNT plays tonight at New Zealand in a friendly. that will be on HBO Max.




i should be on here tomorrow after i get the grocery shopping done and after Manchester United plays at Crystal Palace.



today, after i take mom to her doctor's appointment, i need to go to the bank and Meijer.

so, today was a little crazy

 first off, i had a conversation with an old friend/lover last night. it is kind of shocking at times what happens when you don't hear from someone for a few months. glad you are still alive. we shall be meeting again soon.


so, my eye doctor's appointment went well today. my right eye is a little worse, but not bad enough to need new glasses. and my new insurance is certainly coming in handy. this appointment would usually cost me $45 or more in the past. today it was $29. the prescription i got from Rite Aid today was $12. it always cost me $30 when i got it at Kroger. so, i'm really fucking happy all the bullshit with my insurance seems to be figured out now.


the New York Rangers lost to Detroit last night in a shootout, 3-2. just one of those frustrating as fuck nights.







the USWNT had a 0-0 draw last night with Czech Republic. i am all for the team getting younger. but, the kids need to understand the standard that has been put down for them. last night didn't come fucking close to that standard at all.






NXT UK was really good last night.





Vice News Tonight had two good shows this week. the show comes back in March.



enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be AEW, Celebrity Big Brother, Smackdown, Real Time with Bill Maher and Painting with John. i'll watch NXT Level Up (which has replaced 205 Live) sometime tonight on Peacock.


it was a bit icy this morning. thankfully, by this afternoon, the sun melted most of it. i got the rest of it on the driveway. i knew i better get that done since my sister is coming down tomorrow.


i'm going to try to be on here in the morning tomorrow, before the WWE show in Saudi Arabia happens.


i hope everyone has a great weekend.


until tomorrow kids...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck the police.

stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.

so, it has rained all damn day...

 nothing quite like having your arthritis jumping for joy as you are trying to do your laundry, help your mother, bring in trash cans for the neighbor, etc. and the fun part isn't even fucking here yet. all this rain is going to turn to ice and then turn to 5 to maybe 10 inches of snow. well, fuck me runnin'...


the New York Rangers won last night over Florida, 5-2. that might be my favorite win of the season so far...






NXT was really good last night.














enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, AEW Dynamite, Batwoman, I Can See Your Voice and Celebrity Big Brother.


the USMNT plays a MUST win game tonight against Honduras. the game is in Minnesota, so that should be colder than fuck. hopefully, that works to the USA's advantage. 





the Dayton Flyers play tonight at VCU. i'd love to see Dayton find a way to win tonight, but i won't be holding my breath expecting one.


so, by this time tomorrow it should be snowing like the world is ending. i am pretty damn sure i don't have to go out for anything tomorrow, except for the paper and mail. and quite frankly, if it is really bad, that shit can wait until Friday.


i did cancel my eye doctor's appointment for Friday. i made it for 2 weeks later. i'm really hoping the weather is better then.


i did write a poem today about the guy across the street that killed himself 6 days before Christmas. i'm hoping i write a few more in the next few days, enough to get some submissions out at least.


that's all for me kids...


until tomorrow...


fight the power.


fuck racism.


fuck hatred.


fuck the police.


black lives matter.


stay healthy.


wash your fucking hands.


stay socially distant.

and of course, it is raining...

 it started raining last night, seemingly right after i took a shower. it eventually stopped. but of course, it is raining again this morning. i managed to get the paper before it started to rain, thankfully.


Manchester United takes on Liverpool today. this is the one game that i will be brutally fucking pissed if United loses. now, those assholes over there are the better team and better coached. so, i'm hoping CR7 has something magical in store today and United pulls off one to remember.





the New York Rangers were losing 2-0 yesterday in Ottawa with 6 minutes to go in the 3rd period. the Rangers had never won a game in this scenario in the entire history of the franchise. well, scratch that off the fucking list. the Rangers scored 3 goals in a little over 3 minutes to defeat Ottawa yesterday, 3-2. they swept the road trip and are off to their best start in years. they play tomorrow night at home against Calgary.







Ohio State beat the shit out of Indiana last night, 54-7. and to be honest, after the first quarter, it wasn't even that close.



AEW Dynamite was excellent last night.


the season finale of Rhodes to the Top was good last night.


Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.


ROH was a rerun for some reason last night.


enjoy some music:








and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be Axios, Succession, Insecure, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Last Week Tonight, BMF, Hightown, American Rust and Desus & Mero.


since the New Orleans Saints play tomorrow night, i have no clue what NFL games i will watch today.


my sister is going to leave this afternoon. she's hoping she doesn't have to drive home in the rain. i  don't think she's going to get that lucky.


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


thanks again to everyone for checking out my latest published poem:

another early Sunday...

 i always love waking up at 4 in the morning after going to bed at 2. i tossed and turned until 7:30 came around. i watered the tomatoes, put some dishes away and made some coffee. yesterday felt like a Sunday to me. i can't wait to see what today feels like.


the Yankees won last night, 7-5 in 10 innings, over the White Sox. hopefully, they will win the series this afternoon.







the New Orleans Saints lost to Baltimore last night, 17-14. considering the Saints had 6 turnovers and 10 penalties, they were lucky the game was even that close.





i found out late last night that Fez of Ron and Fez fame died. just 57 years old. thanks for all the fucking laughs over the years Fez.



i did watch plenty of soccer yesterday, some summer league NBA and some baseball as well.







enjoy some music:






and now some of this and that:









on the DVR tonight will be ROH, the season finale of The White Lotus, Last Week Tonight, Power Book III: Raising Kanan, Desus & Mero, Big Brother and Heels.


i'm sure i'll watch plenty of soccer today and whatever else i can find.


i took a couple of pretty good naps yesterday afternoon. the house got up to 79 degrees with the AC off. i was probably like a cat yesterday, fell asleep in the sun.


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


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

quite the busy day...

 so, 3 of the teams i live and die with will be playing today. at noon, 12:30 and 2 this afternoon. i suppose today is the day i give my blood pressure a workout.


at noon, Ohio State plays at Michigan State. i am hoping Ohio State, who will be short-handed and without their head coach today, finds a way to win this game and keep their undefeated season going.



at 12:30, Manchester United will be playing. they really need a victory today after that debacle midweek against PSG. now, they are playing at West Ham, so it will not be easy.


at 2 this afternoon, the Dayton Flyers play at home against SMU. i'll be watching the game on ESPN+. i'm really hoping Dayton plays much better than they did in their first game.


Smackdown and 205 Live were both pretty good last night.







mom decided she wanted pizza last night for dinner. luckily, i had that free coupon from Pizza Hut to use, so i did. we got a large pizza that would have cost us $21 for FREE. of course, i had to get a bunch of other stuff to have it delivered, but that was fine. the sweets i got we had for breakfast this morning. and what is leftover will be either lunch or dinner today.


enjoy some music:




and now some of this and that:








on the DVR tonight will be Saturday Night Live, ROH, Bluegrass Underground and Austin City Limits.


i'm sure i'll watch some other sports today. i'm also hoping the baseball and football cards i ordered show up today.


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


thanks to everyone who has checked out my latest published poems:



i hope everyone has a great Saturday.
