i was absolutely gutted last night. it hit me hard enough that i gave in to my inner demons and shaved my head. i haven't done that in years. especially in my 20's, i would grow my hair out in the summer and then shave it all off in the winter. maybe last night was the beginning of my mid-life crisis. that certainly wouldn't surprise me.
for everything the Yankees did right in Game 4, the complete opposite happened in Game 5. they started off great last night. they were up 5-0. and then came the errors, the mental lapses, etc. etc. that have plagued this team all season long. the Dodgers did what good teams do when your opponent gives you extra outs. they got 5 unearned runs in the 5th last night to tie the game. the Yankees actually took the lead again at 6-5. but, the bullpen faltered and that was that. the Dodgers won 7-6 to win the World Series 4-1. i was really hoping that i would wake up to the news today that Aaron Boone was out as manager. but, i guess Hal is nothing like his father. anyone with a brain knows that fundamental mistakes come down to a coaching staff not drilling it into the players heads to make sure they do all the little things right. this should be a crazy offseason. the Juan Soto sweepstakes start on Monday. my best guess is he will go to whatever team makes him the highest paid player ever in MLB. i am 95% sure that won't be the Yankees. if just making the World Series is good enough, i really wish the team would change the mantra. it certainly isn't win or bust anymore.
the season finale of Grotesquerie was a bit of a mind fuck last night. i really hope there will be a season 2.
AEW Dynamite was pretty good last night.
Abbott Elementary was pretty funny last night.
Inside the NFL was very good last night.
the USWNT won last night over Argentina, 3-0.
enjoy some music:

i might watch some of the Texans vs. Jets tonight on Amazon Prime.
i have my last load of laundry i need to fold. be right back...
ok, last load of laundry is done and put away. it's been fucking raining here most of the day. so, standing and folding clothes have become an event of pain tolerance.

i hope everyone has a safe Halloween.

well, this halloween has certainly reminded me of the ones growing up. cold as fuck and the chance of snow. i think it got down into the 20's last night. it barely made it into the 40's for the high today. good times.
the New York Rangers won last night in Winnipeg, 3-2 in OT. first time in franchise history they had a 5 game road trip and won all 5 games.

Happy Halloween to everyone. i always wanted to love this day. but, growing up in Ohio back in the 80's, most of the time you would have to wear your winter coat over your costume. kind of ruined the whole point. and being a type 2 diabetic, candy isn't something i can just devour anymore. so, if you can enjoy the day, do it to the fullest extreme you can imagine.
so, Manchester United badly needed a win yesterday. Ole changed up the formation, something i was a little surprised he would actually do. but, i also think he knows the board is looking into replacing him, so he had no choice. he played a 3-4-1-2 yesterday. i thought it would work and i was really interested to see CR7 and Cavani playing up top together. they did not disappoint. United got 2 goals from Ronaldo and Cavani and another from Rashford to defeat Tottenham, 3-0. holy shit, a clean sheet. i almost remember what those are like. next up on Tuesday will be a trip to Italy to play in the Champions League. another MUST win game.
Ohio State defeated Penn St. last night, 33-24. the offense did just enough to win, but i thought the defense really turned Penn St. into a one dimensional team. hopefully, they will continue to get better. i believe they play at Nebraska next.
i did watch plenty of other college football games yesterday as well.
here are your highlights from the NBA last night:
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Succession, Insecure, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Last Week Tonight, BMF, Hightown, American Rust and Desus & Mero.
the sun has actually appeared today. it forgot to yesterday. so, i might actually be able to get out and measure the furniture on the back porch finally.
the New Orleans Saints play this afternoon at home against Tampa Bay. i'd love to see the Saints beat the shit out of Tom Brady today. and win the game.
the New York Rangers play tonight at Seattle. hopefully i will get to watch some of the game.
today starts a crazy three days for me. mom has a doctor's appointment at 10 in the morning tomorrow. considering she doesn't get up most days until after noon, that should be interesting. also, the Dayton Flyers play their only preseason game tomorrow night. so, somewhere between all that, a possible trip to the bank, etc... i will try to squeeze two blogs out. good times.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hope your Sunday will be even better.
until tomorrow kids...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck the police.
black lives matter.
stay healthy.
wash your fucking hands.
stay socially distant.
get the shot.
