i'm going to start this blog off with the WWE Elimination Chamber from last night. i was pleasantly shocked that the whole show was better than i was expecting. of course, what everyone is talking about now is John Cena finally turning heel. teaming with the Rock to destroy Cody Rhodes was not on my bingo card. as one person put it last night, the road to WrestleMania just went from 0 to 100 pretty fucking fast.
the Dayton Flyers won yesterday at home against Richmond, 74-64, in 2 OT.
the New York Rangers made a trade yesterday with Colorado. the Rangers will play later tonight at home against Nashville.
i was up early enough this morning to watch the Manchester United game. they lost on penalty kicks at home to Fulham. that knocks them out of the FA Cup. fuck me.
Saturday Night Live was pretty good last night.
AEW Collision last night was ok, at best.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be two episodes of The Americas, The White Lotus, Yellowjackets and Last Week Tonight.
other than the Rangers game tonight, i'll probably watch some basketball and soccer.
i did catch a little of the MLS last night.
i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.
until tomorrow...

today has been one of those days where if i could have slept the entire day, i would have. but, since it is nearly impossible for me to sleep more than 3 hours at a time, i at least got a few naps in.
yesterday, mom had some people over for an early Thanksgiving of sorts. i thought it went pretty well. the food was good. all in all, not bad.
the New Orleans Saints won yesterday at home against the Browns, 35-14.
the New York Rangers won last night at Seattle, 2-0.

so, i thought i was going to have this Monday where i was going to try to squeeze everything in. turns out, that wasn't the case. mom wasn't feeling good when i woke her up this morning. so, she cancelled her physical therapy appointment at noon. and then i thought she had an appointment to get the battery on her iPhone changed. but, i guess she thought she made the appointment for today but actually made it for tomorrow and they don't have the batteries in stock. so, she cancelled that as i have an eye doctor's appointment tomorrow. so, i was able to get to the bank without feeling rushed at all. and i got in a decent nap this afternoon.
the New York Yankees lost yesterday at Colorado, 8-7, in 11 innings. they start a series tonight at the Angels.
Mexico won the Gold Cup yesterday, defeating Panama 1-0.
The Righteous Gemstones was fucking hilarious last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw.
i did listen to episode 456 of Notsam Wrestling this afternoon, you can hear that by going here:
so, when the Yankees got up 5-0 last night, i was hoping they were going to win. silly me. they must have forgot that the Brewers are fighting for a playoff spot as well. add in some shitty balls and strikes calls and sure enough, yet another fucking Yankees collapse. they pissed that 5-0 lead away and lost last night, 7-6. joy.
Smackdown and NXT Level Up were both pretty good last night.
AEW Rampage was very good last night.
Real Time with Bill Maher was hilarious last night.
Los Espookys was great last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
nothing on the DVR tonight.
Ohio State plays at home tonight against Toledo. hopefully, they will blow them out.
i'm sure i will watch plenty of college football today.
i'm sure i will watch some MLS games today as well.
i didn't sleep well last night, mostly because of anger. i did my best to not go to sleep angry, but when 5AM rolls around and you haven't gone to bed yet, it kind of leaves you with no choice.
i should be on here tomorrow before the Saints play at home against Tampa Bay.
i hope everyone has a great Saturday.

so, at 5:45 this morning, a thunderstorm woke me up. it felt like i was a voodoo doll for mother nature. my left leg was throbbing, my right shoulder was throbbing, as was my head. i knew damn well i wasn't going to be able to fall back asleep. fuck.
the New York Yankees won again last night, beating the Royals 3-0. that is 8 wins in a row now. hopefully, they will make it 9 this afternoon.
i was pleased with the two guys the New Orleans Saints drafted yesterday. overall, i think the Saints filled some holes with guys they actually wanted.
i did watch a ton of soccer yesterday as well as boxing last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be VICE, The Man Who Fell to Earth, Ziwe, Gaslit, Barry, The Baby and Last Week Tonight.
i need to return some things for mom, so i have to go to the UPS Store in a little bit. after i get that done, i think i'm going to swing by Big Lots and see if they have any basketball or baseball cards. i have a $5 off coupon to use.
i do plan on watching some soccer this afternoon. i really want to see what the new stadium in Nashville looks like. i'll probably watch some of the NBA playoffs today as well.
i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.
a big thank you to everyone for checking out my latest published poems:
my back has been really killing me the last few days. and when i get into these stages of constant pain, i tend to get a little irritable. not violent, not fuck the world mad, but a short enough fuse that i know the asshole inside of me wants to come out and play. that has been what i've been fighting for days now. amazingly, i was able to fight it off again today. and considering the zoo at the grocery store today, i'm a little shocked.
other than the beautiful black woman that asked me about the New Orleans Saints defense, most of the people at the grocery store were just in the fucking way. i'm very understanding with the elderly, considering i live with one. it's these fucking younger people, on their phones, with their earbuds in, basically, in some different world than the present, that are constantly just in the fucking way. and i swear, do any of these fucks understand anything about social distancing? last thing i want is someone breathing over my shoulder looking for canned peas. fuck me.
NXT last night was good. i really wish they would have crowned a new champion last night, but oh well. next Tuesday should be great.
Hard Knocks was excellent last night. i missed part of the show as a storm knocked out the satellite for a five minutes or so. i did enjoy the fact that the players completely understand that this moment in our country is too big to just sit out or say nothing.
Deadliest Catch was really good last night.
here are your highlights from the NBA last night:
here are your highlights from the NHL last night:
the Yankees beat Tampa last night, 5-3. Tampa got a little pissed that the Yankees did to them what they usually do to the Yankees; throw high and tight, back them off the plate, hit them if you have to. so when Chapman threw a 101 mph fastball at one of their heads last night, everyone got a little pissy. Tampa's manager basically said they have a whole pen of guys who throw 98 mph... so yeah, i am hoping for fireworks tonight. i doubt it will happen since the Yankees manager and Tampa's manager are both suspended for tonight. Chapman got 3 games. he is appealing the suspension. good times.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, AEW, Big Brother and Cari & Jemele Stick to Sports.
i'm sure i'll probably watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight as well.
i should be on here tomorrow after i pick up my pills at the pharmacy. of course, they couldn't have them done when i was at the grocery store.
i need to do my laundry at some point. so, i will squeeze a blog in tomorrow between laundry, writing poems and going back to the store. joy.
i hope this finds everyone well. to all my friends in Minsk, keep up the good fight. to all my friends in the USA, fucking vote please. and to all my enemies, hope you enjoy the blog.
until tomorrow kids...

by the end of last night, i was too fucking wired to fall asleep. maybe around 4 in the morning, i finally ran out of gas. but i did manage to save a victory drink over to today, just in case you know.
first off, a little poetry news. i heard back from Nerve Cowboy on my poetry submission from back in July. they decided to pass on the poems. well, that gives me 5 more for the poems to go out this week sometime.
Manchester United won yesterday at Arsenal 3-1. other than the Paul Pogba red card, which means he will miss the Manchester derby coming up, the game was beautiful to watch. David De Gea once again proved why he is the best goalkeeper in the world.
after the game, mom and i went to the grocery store. of course, they didn't have the ointment she wanted. and then she pulled out a secret scroll that she had been working on for things to get. so our little trip turned into 90 minutes of walking around the store. oh fucking joy.
congrats to Trotwood for winning the Division III championship last night. i listened to most of the game on the radio while watching the Ohio Sate game. i know why i'm fucking crazy now. this was the second title for Trotwood in their history. another 15-0 season. i'm so happy for them after the heartbreaker last season. Trotwood won 27-19.
Ohio State defeated Wisconsin last night 27-21. honestly, turnovers were the only thing that kept Wisconsin in the game. i have no damn clue if Ohio State will make the final 4 or not. i'll find out here in about 20 minutes. personally, i think i would put Alabama in over Ohio State. i just can't erase that Iowa loss from my mind. but, congrats to the Buckeyes on another Big 10 Championship.
Michelle Wolf: Nice Lady was way funnier than i was expecting last night.
ROH was excellent last night.
Saturday Night Live was great last night.
enjoy some music:
and now some of this and that:
on the DVR tonight will be Shameless, SMILF and the season finale of Curb Your Enthusiasm.
the New Orleans Saints have a huge game today at home against Carolina. if they could win today, they would sweep the 2 games against Carolina this season. that would go a long way to winning the division.
the Dayton Flyers play tonight on the road at Mississippi State. i hope they can get a road victory tonight, but the emphasis is on hope. i will be watching it tonight on the SEC Network.
i just saw that Ohio State finished 5th and won't be in the final 4 this year. no team from the Big 10 made it this season. don't be shocked if the playoffs get expanded soon. money does talk in college sports.
since the Saints don't play until after 4 PM, i will probably spend a few hours today getting the poems ready for submission later this week. since i'm planning on it to be my last one of the year, it will most likely be a big one.
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:
the New York Yankees were more or less dead last night. and then, the bottom of the 8th happened. completely out of nowhere, the Yankees, trailing 3-0, scored 5 runs to take the lead. of course, this was happening as the storms were rolling through here, so the satellite was cutting in and out. then, the top of the 9th happened. the Yankees closer walked the bases loaded. how the fuck he got out of it with only giving up 1 run is a damn miracle. or, the gift of sloppy base running from Boston. the Yankees held on for the win, 5-4. they certainly needed that. hopefully they will win again this afternoon.
VICE was excellent last night. too bad so many on the right don't watch it. i suppose they would love to know there are no taxes in Somalia. perfect for venture capitalists.
Treehouse Masters was pretty good last night. i have to think the treehouse they built in New Jersey was easily over $100,000.
Real Time with Bill Maher was fucking hilarious last night.
Room 104 last night was kind of just cruising along and then HOLY SHIT, what an ending.
enjoy some music:

hopefully all the storms are gone and this weekend will be a pleasant one.
i figure i'll spend most of today doing the dishes and hopefully, catching up on some sleep.
mom said my sister will be down here this afternoon. i figure this is all going to be about the home she's buying.
i will probably be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays.
that's all for me kids. i hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday. call if you need bail money, unless you are one of those fuckers in Charlottesville. i'm all for free speech. but when that speech becomes throwing lit torches at other protesters, it is no longer free speech. that is called a crime. and hopefully people wake the fuck up that slavery isn't something in the past that you actually should be proud of. of course, with the racists in the White House these days, i can understand why you think you should be proud. stupid fucks.

mom finally got released from the hospital today. she was very happy to break free as she put it. she wanted to get some food as soon as she left, so i took her through the Burger King drive-thru (her choice). once she got back home, it took her a little time to figure out the best place to sit, etc. she's now back in her room and my sister is here for the weekend. the home health nurse will be here tomorrow at some point. i figure if we can make it through the weekend without killing each other, we'll be off to a good start.
i did write 7 poems last night. that finished off a notebook i started in November of last year. 7 months ain't bad, at least for me. i typed the poems up before i went to get mom from the hospital. i think all of them are pretty good.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.
Lip Sync Battle was pretty fucking good last night.

nothing on the DVR tonight.
the New York Yankees start a series with the Oakland A's tonight. i hope they get a victory as i certainly need a drink.
i did watch a little of the basketball game last night. if Cleveland wins the finals again this year, i'll go ahead and anoint LeBron as the best basketball player EVER.
i ended up watching most of the hockey game last night. you can't ask for more than a Game 7 that goes into 2OT. the Stanley Cup Final will be Nashville vs. Pittsburgh. i couldn't care less who wins.
i have no idea when i'll be on here tomorrow or at all this weekend. i get the feeling that my sister and i are going to be running around like chickens with our heads cut off while waiting for mom to make up her mind on what she wants and needs.
i hope everyone has a great weekend. if you are enjoying the Memorial Day weekend festivities wherever, be safe and be sure you have bail money.

well, i made it through the Dayton Flyers game without coughing a ton or really having any problems. of course, i nearly tripled the amount of NyQuil you're supposed to take last night. i think that did the trick. as for the game...
Dayton came out flat and paid for it. it wasn't long before they were down by 15 points. i feared the worst. thankfully, they cut the lead to 6 by halftime. Dayton came out on fire in the second half and quickly got the lead back. St. Bonaventure kept it pretty close, or i should say their point guard kept it close. he ended up with 35 for the game. Dayton ended up winning the game, 76-72. that puts them back in a first place tie with VCU. i believe they have a 3 game lead on the rest of the league. Dayton plays again on Tuesday against George Mason.
it was great to see Brian Roberts go into the Hall of Fame at halftime of the game today. he's one of the best shooters i have ever seen at Dayton.
Vice News Tonight had another great week of reporting.
NJPW was excellent last night. i could watch Will Ospreay wrestle forever and never get bored.
Real Time with Bill Maher was fucking hilarious last night.

i will probably watch some of the NBA Saturday Night festivities tonight, probably the dunk contest and the 3 point contest.

the New York Rangers play tomorrow at home against Washington. i will probably be on here after the game is over.

so that wild hair did get up my ass again today and i did a little poetry work. i sent out 17 poems today. 2 to Tuck Magazine and 5 each to Your One Phone Call, Because Eileen and Synchronized Chaos. when i hear back from these places, i will pass along the verdicts.
team USA got up 2-0 against Switzerland last night and you could see they were already thinking about playing Russia. it's a good lesson for kids to learn and it is easier to teach when you win. Switzerland controlled pretty much the rest of the game. if it wasn't for the USA's power play, they probably wouldn't have won 3-2. they will have to play much better if they want to beat Russia again in the semifinals. if they win, they will play for the gold medal against the winner of Canada vs. Sweden. if the USA loses, they will play for the bronze medal.
Monday Night Raw wasn't bad last night. that doesn't mean it was good either. i do like the fact that they are pushing Braun Strowman as much as they are. the main event scene definitely needs some fresh blood. the last man standing match between Braun and Sami Zayn last night was booked perfectly. that was probably the only thing on the show that was.

the Dayton Flyers play tonight on the road at St. Bonaventure. the two injured players made the trip, so i'm hoping they might actually play. the team will need them.
today has been another gloomy one. more fog, more rain, more blah. i still have the trash to do here and next door and of course it's raining again. good times.
that's all for me kids. i'll be on here sometime before the USA takes on Russia. it might be a short one tomorrow as i have to take mom to her next doctor's appointment at 6:45 in the morning on Thursday. so i might actually have to get some sleep tomorrow.

i had the misfortune of turning on the television last night, hoping to catch the local weather. instead i got to hear a snippet of a douchebag scream about this horrible country that apparently only he can save. that to me sounded a bit too much like Hitler for my liking. and it also brings up the point, if this country is so damn bad, why is Trump still here? oh that's right, he makes money off of chaos and despair. but the night did bring back one of my favorite words...

i always wondered if i would live long enough to see the book of Revelations. if a certain jackass gets elected, i think i may have my answer.
we had a thunderstorm roll through here this morning. i've been achy since the moment i woke up this morning. good times.
i wrote 3 poems this afternoon and typed them up. i really like them and probably will include them in my next round of submissions.
the New York Yankees came back to reality yesterday and lost 4-1. they start a series with the Giants tonight. i wouldn't be shocked if a trade happened between the two teams. maybe not this weekend, but certainly by the end of the month.
Big Brother went as i expected last night. tonight will be the Battle Back competition. the first 5 evicted houseguests will compete against each other to see who goes back into the house.
Sex&Drugs&Rock&Roll was really good last night. i was happy to see Robert Kelly get more lines this week. he's one of my favorite comedians.

i saw this picture today and i thought it really summed up things precisely:
i saw that Manchester United lost to Borussia Dortmund over in China today, 4-1. good thing it's only the preseason. i just want them to be ready by the time the games actually matter.
the New York Rangers signed both of their restricted free agents today, Kevin Hayes and Chris Kreider. i really like both deals. the GM had a much better offseason this season than last. hopefully that means a better season, especially in the playoffs this coming year.
that's all for me kids. i need to go take a long shower and see if i can get my bones to stop aching.
