Happy Memorial Day...

 

i hope everyone has a good Memorial Day.

i sort of had this blog planned in my mind and then of course, life gets in the way. i was sort of stunned when i got the news today that Bill Walton had died. the true definition of being one of one. rest in peace big man. thank you for all the laughs.

the New York Rangers won yesterday at Florida, 5-4, in OT. they are now up 2-1 in the series. Game 4 is Tuesday night.

the New York Yankees lost yesterday at San Diego, 5-2. they are off today and start a series tomorrow night at the Angels.

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

The Chi was very good last night.

the finale of The Sympathizer was excellent last night.

the finale of The Jinx Part 2 was very interesting last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Monday Night Raw.

i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA and NHL playoffs tonight.

i did watch some of the Indy 500 and NASCAR race yesterday.

i'm getting better sleep in my chair than in my bed. my pinched nerve doesn't go as crazy when i'm in the chair with ice on my back. fun times.

i have no clue when i will be on here tomorrow. 

until then kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

paint the town red...

 so, let me start off with the most unexpected thing that happened yesterday. if i had known what was going to happen, i would have put more than fifty cents on the game. Manchester United defeated Manchester City yesterday, 2-1, to win the FA Cup. when Kobbie Mainoo scored to make it 2-0, i felt like i was in a fucking dream. Garnacho scored the first goal for United. to have both goals scored by 19 year olds is something that i hope means good things in the future. City scored late but it truly was a day to paint the town red. i have no clue if ETH keeps his job or not. i won't be surprised if they do fire him. hell, they have fired coaches before after winnings titles. if it was his last game as manager, that is probably the best way he could have gone out. 

the New York Yankees won last night in San Diego, 4-1. they go for the sweep this afternoon.

WWE King and Queen of the Ring was good yesterday.

here are your highlights from the NHL playoffs last night:

here are your highlights from the NBA playoffs last night:

AEW Collision was good last night.

Lady Gaga Chromatica Ball was very good last night:

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be the finale of The Sympathizer, the finale of The Jinx Part 2 and The Chi.

the New York Rangers play Game 3 this afternoon down in Florida. i'm hoping the boys find a way to win.

i'm sure i will watch some of the NBA playoffs today, as well as the Indy 500 and probably some of the NASCAR race as well.

we're supposed to have some strong storms come through today, so i imagine i will be on tornado watch as well. good times.

i need to go ice my back down and try to catch a nap before the Rangers play this afternoon. 

i hope everyone had a great Saturday. i hope your Sunday will be even better.

until tomorrow kids...

fight the power.

fuck racism.

fuck hatred.

fuck war.

fuck the police.

up early for nothing...

 so, i was under the impression that Orkin was going to be out here today and get up into the attic to see what the squirrels did now. when i went out to get the mail, i noticed the traps were in different places. so, i decided to go over to the side of the house where the squirrels had been getting in before. sure enough, there were two traps up on the roof. so, i told mom that Orkin had must have been here for those traps to get up on the roof. mind you, we haven't heard anything in the attic for almost 2 weeks now. part of me thinks Orkin doesn't want to get in the attic and see the damage because they will have to do the whole damn job over for free since there was a lifetime guarantee. so, after a few phone calls, my hunch was correct and i guess mom told them they have to get out here tomorrow. fun times.

i did watch some of both Game 7's yesterday in the NBA. i was pleasantly shocked that both road teams won. so, the conference finals are now set. Pacers at Celtics and Dallas at Minnesota.

there is a Game 7 tonight in the NHL. Edmonton at Vancouver. i am going to try to watch some of that.

the New York Yankees won yesterday at home to sweep the White Sox, 7-2. they start a series tonight at home against Seattle.

the finale of A Gentleman in Moscow was excellent last night.

The Chi was very good last night.

The Sympathizer was really good last night.

The Jinx Part 2 was crazy last night. the finale is next week.

Last Week Tonight was BRILLIANT.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be The Voice, Monday Night Raw and two episodes of Stax, Soulsville U.S.A.

i'm not sure what i'm making for dinner tonight. i'm doubting the pork chops are actually thawed out.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

i have no damn clue when i will be on here tomorrow.

starting to feel like summer...

 it was 78 degrees in the house last night. i told mom, i'm going to turn on the air conditioner. she reluctantly said ok. i'm assuming that was the reason i actually got more than 5 hours of sleep last night. and also why i wasn't up before the Manchester United game started.

Manchester United won 2-0 at Brighton today. they will have to beat Manchester City next weekend in the FA Cup final to be able to play in Europe next season.

nothing like 3 hours of sleep...

 when i got up to take a piss this morning, it was 8:30 AM. i went to bed at 5 AM. i was tempted to fall back asleep, but i didn't. i put the dishes away, made some coffee and got going with my day. probably a good thing as the guys came to do the gutters around 10 AM. so, now we have leaf guards on the gutters. that should help with the squirrels and whatever else. i did manage a bit of a nap in my massage chair. but a 20 minute power nap didn't do that much for me.

here are your 3 videos for this day of national poetry month:

the New York Rangers won last night at Washington, 4-2. they won the series 4-0. they will now play the winner of Carolina and the New York Islanders. i would love if that series goes 7 games.

that took another 10 years off of my life...

 as a sports fan, i pretty much have seen it all. today is just another chapter of it, but, i am thankful i am 48 years old, so i know not to ever get my hopes up. when Manchester United went up 3-0 today in the FA Cup semifinal, i figured they would win but it wouldn't be like in the past. in the past, United goes up 3-0 and they would win either 3-1 or maybe 5-2, something like that. this United team lacks every single bit of confidence that all the United teams had before. and i sadly know that all too well. so, of course, United pissed that lead away and ended up going to extra time at 3-3 against Coventry. Coventry thought they had won the game in the 122nd minute, but they were offside by maybe an inch. probably even less than that. so the game went to penalty kicks. United won those 4-2, to advance to the FA Cup final against Manchester City. you could tell no one was particularly pleased that United won this way. to be honest, it feels like a fucking loss, which would have spared the potential embarrassment of what Manchester City will most likely do to them in the final. regardless, i'm not sure how ETH keeps his job and i'm not sure the new top brass has the guts to sell off all the players that need to leave. i was hoping for a way less stressful beginning to my Sunday.
