i was up early this morning, to make sure i would be wide awake when the electrician got here. they got what they needed to get done before we had to leave for mom's appointment at the foot doctor. we got there a little early and everything went pretty smoothly. mom wanted some Wendy's after her appointment, so we went through the drive-thru and took the food home. we were done with lunch by the time Manchester United was taking on Barcelona.
when Barcelona went up 1-0 in the first half, i wasn't happy, but i wasn't afraid either. the one thing ETH has done for this club is once again instill the belief that borders on fucking arrogance that United will always come back. sure enough, Fred scored in the first two minutes of the second half. Antony scored with about 20 minutes to go and United won, 2-1. that means they will advance to the final 16 of the Europa League. they knocked out Barcelona, 4-3 on aggregate. now, they have a cup final on Sunday that could bring the first trophy to the club in 5 years. i can't fucking wait.
here are your links for this day of Black History Month:
the Dayton Flyers won last night at UMASS, 72-54. below is the press conference from UMASS since the Dayton Flyers don't post any videos on YouTube anymore for some fucking reason.
the USWNT won the SheBelieves Cup last night, defeating Brazil, 2-1.
AEW Dynamite was good last night.
The Masked Singer was crazy again last night.
both episodes of Snowfall were fucking amazing last night. the final season should be great.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight and NJPW.
the New York Rangers are playing tonight in Detroit. hopefully, the boys will find a way to win.
i'm not sure what i am making for dinner tonight. i know my audible to add some peppers to some pulled pork for sandwiches last night was a good call. mom seemed to really enjoy it.
gambling went pretty well last night. i did nail one college basketball parlay. hopefully, tonight will be even better.
i will probably be on here in the afternoon tomorrow.
the weather is supposed to take another turn as i know there is the chance of snow flurries at some point. i mean, it was only 70 degrees today and i was out in shorts. so, of course it would fucking snow the very next day. it is Ohio after all.
until tomorrow kids...
fight the power.
fuck racism.
fuck hatred.
fuck war.
fuck the police.
black lives matter.
stay healthy.
wash your fucking hands.
stay off the fucking streets.
get the fucking shot.
una noche para recordar
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...

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
i didn't sleep worth a shit last night. i had plenty of alcohol in me, so sleeping should have been easy. instead, i was trying to work out poems with crazy ass phrases and having no damn luck. and then it became my imagination trying to steal kisses from an alien. no luck there either. fuck it.
Manchester United went up 2-0 in the first half this morning. and then they tried to sit on that lead for the second half. that's how i wanted to start my day, pissed off. thankfully, they didn't piss all of the lead away, winning over West Brom 2-1. i'm sure i'll enjoy the alcohol tonight.
the Dayton Flyers won in OT last night over Georgia State 88-83. i laughed when the game went into overtime as i said to my mom before i left, i didn't know what time i might be home, the game could go into 3 overtimes. i guess that's what i get for opening my mouth. Josh Cunningham had a monster game last night, 29 points and 18 rebounds. i still don't like what little offense this team runs. it's like watching paint dry most of the time. they next play out in California on Tuesday against Saint Mary's. i'll be amazed if they don't have their asses handed to them out there.
Saturday Night Live was fucking hilarious last night.
ROH was excellent last night.
the New York Rangers won in OT yesterday against Boston, 3-2. i only got to see the highlights from the game. amazingly, they are only 2 points out of first place in the division right now.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Shameless and SMILF. i'll be watching WWE Clash of Champions for most of the evening.
i have been underwhelmed by most of the buildup for Clash of Champions tonight. so that usually means the show will be better than i thought it would be. i'm hoping that's the case tonight.
the New Orleans Saints play at home today against the New York Jets. my favorite team against my mother's favorite team. things could get ugly in this house today.
it got pretty warm for December yesterday. i think when i left for the game it was around 45 degrees outside. of course, all that means is people will get sick and there is a pretty good chance for rain today. i'm trying not to read much into the advanced forecast for Christmas Eve. but i'm not liking the chance of snow and me having to drive up to Columbus in it.
that's all for me kids. i hope everyone had a great Saturday. hopefully your Sunday will be even better.

and your whatever the fuck i wanted you to see video of the day:
when i finally got to UD Arena last night and saw the students half way around the building, i had a good feeling. the whole place was packed nearly 30 minutes before the game even started. the ceremony for the seniors was really good. and with the energy in the building, i really had a feeling that VCU had no chance. Dayton had the lead the entire game, even though things got a little scary in the second half. that was when the refs forgot that you were allowed to call fouls on VCU. the game took forever as there was close to 50 free throws in the game. but, Dayton won 79-72. the win clinches the A10 regular season title outright and gives Dayton the #1 seed in the conference tournament. it was a fucking joy to watch the guys celebrate with the students and then cut the net down. i love that the coach got tired of waiting for 3 of the seniors who were busy taking pictures, so he cut the rest of the net down himself. hilarious shit. the boys next play at George Washington on Saturday. it would be nice if they could exercise some of the demons in that building and take a 10 game winning streak into the A10 tournament.
it was well after 11 when i got home last night. i found out the 24 hour McDonald's in town is no longer open 24 hours.
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice and Baskets.
the New York Rangers are playing tonight in Boston. i wouldn't mind if they would actually find a way to win tonight.
i had to take mom to get some blood drawn today for her doctor's appointment tomorrow. it took almost 2 hours for it to get done. mind you, the actual act of drawing the blood took about 3 minutes. the rest of the time was sitting around and waiting.
i went to the bank and the grocery store today. what i thought was a trip just to get bread and bananas turned into a well, fuck it, let me just do all the fucking shopping now. i managed to keep it under $70, so i was happy.
i'll be on here sometime tomorrow after mom's appointment in the morning.
be well. be creative. be cool. be quick to send me CASH, panties, hate mail, love letters, broken promises and dirty pennies from heaven.
