my grandfather died 41 years ago today. i reminded my mother of that this morning and how she tried to explain to a 4 year old boy why he couldn't attend the funeral. she is mostly scared of all the shit i remember. so am i.
so, Ohio State fucked up my bracket yesterday. thank god i didn't have them in the Final Four.
Smackdown was really good last night. i'm looking forward to Fastlane on Sunday.
205 Live wasn't on Peacock last night. thankfully, my WWE Network subscription doesn't run out for another week. i watched it there. it was good once again.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.
the New York Rangers played really good last night for 55 minutes. you can imagine what happened in the last 5 of the game. Washington won, 2-1. or i should say, Alex Ovechkin 2, Rangers 1. the teams play again tonight. hopefully, there will be a different outcome.
the Yankees lost 4-1 last night to the Phillies. they play the Orioles tonight.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be ROH.
the Dayton Flyers play in the NIT at noon against Memphis. Dayton is a 4 1/2 point underdog. they will have to play great today to win. i'm not counting on it.
i'm sure i will watch plenty of the NCAA tournament today.
i will hopefully be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays in the FA Cup.
i had to run out to Rite-Aid yesterday to get something for my mother. amazingly, they had two Fairfield boxes of baseball cards there. i got both for $8. there was close to $70 worth of cards in them. that was a great find.
and i got the email last night that my order from Repacked Wax is on the way. so, i should have 5 packs of baseball cards and 5 packs of football cards here soon.
i hope everyone has a great Sunday. hope the weather is good enough in your neck of the woods on the first day of Spring.
until tomorrow kids...

fuck racism.

thankfully, there was no line at all when we took 4 boxes of shit to get shredded today. that was pretty easy. i found exactly what i was looking for at Hobby Lobby and even better, it was 50% off as well. mom found a few things she was looking for at Bed Bath & Beyond. i swear by the time we got out of there, it felt like it was near 100 outside. we were going to drive back to town to get lunch but then i thought we weren't far from this sports bar that we both like. mom just happened to have a gift card on her, so that settled that. it felt good to get into the air conditioning for a while. lunch was good. there must have been a fire somewhere on the way home as 2 fire trucks came flying past me on the way back. and sure enough, as soon as i got home, it was a race to the toilet. even if i take precautions (pills) or hydrate myself properly (water instead of alcohol), the heat destroys me anymore. good times.
the New York Yankees won again last night, 4-0 over Detroit. it's the first time since April, when they were 4-3 on the season, that they've been above .500. hopefully they will get 2 games over .500 by winning again tonight.
i did enjoy the Copa America games last night. Chile won a wild game over Bolivia 2-1 with a penalty kick at the death. Messi finally played for Argentina and it took him all of 20 minutes to get a hat trick. fucking ridiculous. Argentina defeated Panama 5-0.
tonight is a massive MUST WIN game for the USA vs. Paraguay. if the USA loses, they are eliminated. if they can get a draw, they will most likely advance. if they win, they are onto the quarterfinals. and once again, if they lose, i want the coach fired before the end of the night.
the other Copa America game tonight is Colombia vs. Costa Rica.
i did watch a little bit of the Euro 2016 before i had to leave this morning. Switzerland defeated Albania 1-0. i saw a little bit of Wales while i was at the sports bar. they defeated Slovakia 2-1. and i'm currently watching England and Russia play while i'm typing this. honestly, the violence before the match was probably more exciting.
that will be my day for the next few weeks. Euro 2016 in the day, Copa America at night. good times.
i didn't watch any of the NBA Finals last night. as soon as i saw that Golden State had the lead in the 4th quarter, i knew Cleveland was fucked. i'll be shocked if the series goes longer than 5 games now.
NJPW was excellent last night.
VICE was another must see episode last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be ROH.
when i saw that Christina Grimmie was killed last night when i woke up this morning, i was stunned. i remember her on The Voice and was really happy that she continued on with her career after the show. to be gunned down while signing autographs for fans is a horrific way to go. of course, it was in Florida, where it seems most crazy shit tends to happen.
England just scored to go up 1-0 over Russia. holy shit, Russia just scored basically at the death to get the 1-1 draw. same old England.
a happy birthday to the first major crush of my life. my offer still stands.
i hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday. call if you need bail money.

we got a few inches of snow overnight. i didn't think it was much until i saw that schools were closing. it has snowed on and off all day long. that is supposed to continue into tonight. i told mom with how she was feeling and how i was feeling, there's no point trying to go out today. the last thing i need is either of us falling and breaking something.
so that means i will be watching the Dayton Flyers on the television tonight. they play against Duquesne. Dayton is up to 19 in the AP poll. that is the highest Dayton has been in February since the 60's. hopefully they take care of business once again tonight.
the New York Rangers were without two of their best players last night. thankfully, they decided to not feel sorry for themselves. they were dominant for most of the 60 minutes last night against New Jersey, although the last few minutes were a little more scary than they should have been. goals from Klein and Miller and some huge saves from The King, the Rangers won 2-1.
The X-Files were pretty interesting last night. i'm interested to see where the show goes in the last few episodes.
Monday Night Raw was really good last night. they saved the Daniel Bryan retirement to the end. that was probably for the best. i loved that Dean Ambrose showed just how crazy he is by going after Brock Lesnar. plus, anytime Ziggler and Owens wrestles anymore, it's a classic. the Daniel Bryan ceremony was excellent. i teared up a few times as he was easily one of my favorite wrestlers of this generation. he will be missed, that's for sure.
enjoy some music kids:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be The Muppets and Total Divas.
i guess i should actually got out and get the paper and mail now. hopefully the driveway isn't icy.
sometime tonight i'm going to go through some poems and see where my next round of submissions are going to go to. i've got a couple of places in mind, including a few new ones.
that's all for me kids. i was busy on iTunes this morning, so you may see some songs that you wouldn't think i would listen to.
i hope this finds everyone warm and enjoying something. i'll let your imagination decide what you think i think that something is.
be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.
