waiting around for something

there were over 4 1/2 hours of rain delays yesterday in the New York Yankees game. you can just imagine how thrilled i was when they lost 2-0 7 1/2 hours after the game was supposed to start. i honestly believe if i wasn't groomed to be a baseball fan from birth, i wouldn't be one today. the Yankees start a series tonight in Cleveland. it will be the first Yankees start for Sonny Gray. hopefully the offense wakes the fuck up for him tonight.

Manchester United won yesterday 2-1 over Sampdoria in Ireland. i thought the team played brilliant at times and i was thrilled at how Matic fit in in his first action of the preseason. their next game will be the UEFA Super Cup vs. Real Madrid.

i did watch most of the MLS All Star game last night. Real Madrid ended up winning on penalty kicks. the game was much better in the second half.

Big Brother only showed some of the fucking chaos that has gone on in the house this week. they didn't even show the POV ceremony last night. i figure they saved that for tonight since there won't be an eviction. Paul used the POV on Jason, leaving Jessica and Cody on the block. Jessica will use her HEX to halt the eviction tonight and there will be no eviction. so, basically, Jessica or Cody will have to win the next HOH or their asses will go right back up on the block and the only way they will be safe is to start winning some competitions. i'm hoping for some fireworks tonight.

Lucha Underground was excellent last night.

NXT was really, really good last night.

Snowfall was great last night. it reminded me just how long it's been since i was at a fucking 4th of July party.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Big Brother and The Chris Gethard Show.

i'm so out of touch seeing that i'm no longer playing fantasy football that i forgot the NFL preseason starts tonight.

i did listen to the latest Jim Norton and Sam Roberts podcast. you can find that by going here:

i also listened to the latest Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast this morning. you can find that by going here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/sam-roberts-wrestling-podcast/id934576040?mt=2

if i get a wild hair up my ass today, i might go get a haircut before i take mom to her physical therapy appointment. of course, the weather plays a role in that as well. i believe we have a cold front near or my arthritis has decided to simply go to war with me finally.

that's all for me kids. until tomorrow...

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...

nothing quite like angry sleep

as i have grown older, i have really begun to dislike games between the Yankees and Red Sox. mostly because they take forever. last night was no different. when the Yankees closer couldn't any out to begin the bottom of the 9th (two infield singles), i knew doom was coming. the bullpen was supposed to be the strength of this team this year. time and time again this season, they have pissed away lead after lead. and to give up the winning run on a fucking walk is mind boggling to me. i'd rather watch paint dry than that again. New York lost 5-4. they play Boston against this afternoon. hopefully, i'll have something better to do.

after that debacle, i turned on some loud music and started to go through the unpublished poems file. i think i have my next round of submissions set up. 19 poems this time around. i'm shooting for Tuesday most likely.

NJPW was excellent last night. i could watch Will Ospreay wrestle Kushida forever and never get tired of it.

VICE was very good last night. it clearly showed how Turkey is becoming the latest dictatorship. hopefully old fuck face Trump wasn't watching to get any ideas of how he could become President until he dies.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH.

team USA has a pretty simple mission today in the Gold Cup. beat Nicaragua and you should win your group. it's just that i don't know if this team is really capable of doing what it needs to do the easiest way possible. when you play down to your competition's level, disaster is always just one fuck up away. and it's obvious that FOX didn't think this game was going to mean anything since it's going to be on FXX.

Manchester United plays a preseason friendly tonight against Los Angeles Galaxy. that game will be on ESPN2. i'll be watching.

i believe my sister is coming down here for a little bit today. hopefully i can get her to buy some broadsides.

i'll be on here tomorrow before the first game of the Yankees doubleheader. hopefully, i will be in a better mood.

i hope everyone has a great Saturday. call if you need bail money.

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...
