Manchester United was fucking awful in the first half today. Leicester wasn't much better, but they were up 1-0 at halftime. at least United woke up in the second half. to be honest, they couldn't play worse. Garnacho came on and did very well. Zirkzee scored the first goal. Harry Maguire scored the game winner late, even though he was clearly offside. thank god there was no VAR today. United won 2-1 to advance to the next round of the FA Cup.
a delightful trip into the dark mind of an evil genius or simply the musings of an asshole

just a little snow...
when i got up this morning, i could tell it had snowed. i could hear the squirrels in the attic that are somehow still getting in up there, going nuts. it was basically a coating, just sticking to the grass. the round that is hitting now is sticking to everything.
the Dayton Flyers won last night at home over New Mexico St., 74-53.
AEW Dynamite was good last night.

last day for the nice weather...
i guess the 90's are right around the corner. i turned on the air conditioning this morning just to make sure it didn't have to run all damn day. i actually got some ok sleep last night. i guess that's better.
the Yankees won last night at home against Cleveland, 8-1. hopefully, they will win the series this afternoon.

at least the humidity went away...
i was actually able to open up the house today. a nice cool breeze this morning was flowing through. i got some more horrible sleep. sadly, i am used to it. i did get the house vacuumed today. that took a toll on my back. i was hoping a really good shower would help that. it didn't.
the Yankees won again last night, 8-5, at home against the Twins. the only thing that ruined the victory was the injury to Juan Soto. turns out it is just some elbow inflammation he has been dealing with for the last 10 days or so. so, a few days off and he will (hopefully) be fine. they start a series tonight at home against the Dodgers.

what a night...
i have a pinched nerve in my left shoulder that is trying its hardest to rain on my fucking parade right now. but, i'm hoping i have enough Jack Daniels in me to get through this and give that pain the middle fucking finger.
the New York Rangers won last night at home against Florida, 2-1, in OT. that ties the series at 1-1. Game 3 is Sunday afternoon down in Florida.

and now, the rain...
i swear, anytime i actually might get some sleep, there is something to ruin it. today, the lawn company that does our yard was out here at 9 AM. i could hear them in the back as the phone was ringing. fuck me. i'm pretty sure i got something close to 6 hours of sleep, which might as well be a fucking coma for me. but damn, i needed more and the rain this afternoon proved exactly why i needed more.
i did write 3 poems today while mom was in physical therapy. i typed them up when we got home. i really think i have some very good poems to send out soon.
AEW Dynamite was good last night.

of course, more rain...
i didn't mind the rain when i lived on the farm. i knew we needed it for the crops. but, i'm not on the farm now. and to wake up to rain for like the 3rd day in a row sucks. i know some asshole out there is like think of the alternative. guess what, i have been since i was 8 years old.
the New York Yankees lost last night at home to the Cubs, 3-0. i guess the only time they can win now is when their pitchers are perfect.

like living in the apocalypse...
so, the wildfires are fucking up everything. the haze here is bad enough. the scenes from New York are straight out of a fucking movie.
i was saddened when i heard the news about The Iron Sheik dying today. he was absolutely one of my favorite bad guys of all time. thanks for one hell of a ride.

a cold ass Saturday...
i went out to get the paper this morning and it was cold enough that the moment i got back into the house, i had to shit. one of those soul changing, was this what Elvis felt kind of shits. as you can tell, i'm ready for winter to be over.

and here comes more rain...
i hate the mornings where i wake up in pain before i do anything. that is the easiest way for me to know there is some rain in the area. and that is how i have felt all morning today. good times.
here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

the two best words in sports... Game 7
so, the New York Rangers played a pretty good Game 6 last night and Carolina played like they have all playoffs on the road. they stunk. the Rangers won 5-2. that sets up Game 7 tomorrow night in Carolina. i'm really hoping the Rangers play their asses off in that game and find a way to win. the winner of Game 7 will host Tampa Bay in the Eastern Conference Finals.
there is a Game 7 tonight in the NBA. Boston at Miami, winner goes on to face Golden State in the final.

of course it had to rain
so, last night i was watching some tv and then all of a sudden, pain took over me and i was out. i don't remember falling asleep. what i think happens anymore is the pain gets so much for my body that i just blackout. what pissed me off was i was right in the middle of that Cypress Hill documentary last night. thankfully, i did get to see all of it, eventually. that brought back a ton of memories.
the Yankees won last night in Detroit, 5-3. they go for the sweep this afternoon. i'm pretty sure most of the attention will be on seeing if Miguel Cabrera gets his 3,000th hit today for the Tigers.
