thoughts on a rainy Monday afternoon...

the New Orleans Saints started off rather poorly yesterday. it certainly felt like they thought they could waltz right into Green Bay and win since Aaron Rodgers wasn't playing for the Packers. thankfully, the team got their asses in gear in the second half and won 26-17. considering they only allowed the Packers to score 3 points in the second half, i was pretty pleased with the win. next up for the first place Saints (man, that felt weird to type) will be a home game against Chicago.

Ray Donovan was excellent last night. the season finale next week looks like it should be amazing.

The Deuce was really good last night. i believe that season finale is next week as well.

Vice Principals was pretty fucking funny last night.

Curb Your Enthusiasm was fucking hilarious last night.

WWE TLC was either really good or what the fuck was that last night. i loved that Asuka is now on the main roster. the AJ Stlyes vs. Finn Balor match was great. hopefully that match will happen again at Survivor Series. the main event of the evening was overbooked but, if you weren't expecting much, was really fucking crazy good. i was totally expecting the Kurt Angle gets taken to the back and then makes a return 15 or 20 minutes later. i wasn't expecting Kurt to get the victory for The Shield. i also wasn't expecting The Miz, Cesaro, Sheamus and Kane to turn on Braun Strowman either. so, i guess that means Braun will be a babyface now and just destroy whomever he fucking feels like. works for me. Monday Night Raw should be interesting tonight.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice and The Big Bang Theory. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

the New York Rangers play at home tonight against San Jose. it would be nice to see the Rangers actually win 2 games in a row.

i listened to an interview with my good friend, Janne Karlsson this afternoon. he was kind enough to read my poem "a little voice" in the interview. you can find that interview by going here:

the rain that was supposed to be here last night didn't arrive until late this morning. that made it real fun to drive my mother to her appointment. as i told her on the drive home, it won't be insanity that makes me kill everyone, it will be my fucking arthritis.

her hip is doing really good. everyone is hoping that her next injection in her back helps the bursitis she's dealing with at the moment. if not, she'll have to get a cortisone injection in that to help ease that pain. but, she should be able to go back on her medicine for her arthritis now instead of slowly killing her liver with Tylenol.

i'll be on here tomorrow sometime after Manchester United plays at Swansea City in the League Cup.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

some things just aren't meant to be

in hindsight, i was thankful the Yankees loss last night wasn't a dramatic gut punch like 2001 was. i still think about that fucking loss to this day. the Yankees only had 3 hits last night. you have to be perfect to win a game with just 3 hits. the Yankees lost last night 4-0. their inability to do anything on offense while in Houston cost them this series. oh well, they are young enough that hopefully this lights a fire in them to come back better than ever for years to come. next year will be the real test since they won't surprise anyone after this year.

as soon as the game was over, i started to shave. i have a superstition about playoff beards. so, now all my attention will turn to hockey, college basketball and the New Orleans Saints.

ROH was excellent last night.

George Michael: Freedom was very good last night. those songs certainly took me back to my childhood.

Austin City Limits was great last night. i don't think the Zac Brown Band gets enough credit for just how good of a band they really are.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Ray Donovan, The Deuce, Vice Principals and Curb Your Enthusiasm. i'll be watching WWE TLC most of the evening on WWE Network.

the New Orleans Saints play today at Green Bay. the Saints are favored in the game, so i am hoping they actually do win and everyone else playing in the division loses.

i'll be on here tomorrow after i take mom to her follow up appointment for her hip.

i hope everyone had a better Saturday than i did. hopefully your Sunday is even better.

imagination and nerves, all wrapped up in a ball of hate

my mind has been on a bit of a fucking rollercoaster since last night. sometimes, that's a good thing.

first off, the New York Yankees lost last night 7-1. it was one of those games where they just could never get anything going. it sadly reminded me of 2001 all over again, which i fucking hope isn't the case. Game 7 will be tonight. CC will be on the mound for the Yankees. i have faith they will find a fucking way to win tonight. if not, i'll drink myself to sleep and hopefully not wake up for a week or so.

after the game i got an email from a "fan" telling me my poetry is very sexy. i started to laugh, wondering which asshole from Africa was trying to spam me now. so far, no cracks that i have seen, although saying she loves my poetry and then saying she wants to keep things secret so to not upset my wife and her husband made me scratch my head a bit. i don't think i have made any poems that people would believe i am married in. but, "she" said she thinks of fucking me while she's with her husband, so at the very least, my imagination is going to have some fucking fun with this one.

so i got up this morning and did the dishes while Manchester United was playing. United was fucking dreadful today. i couldn't believe how shitty they were playing at Huddersfield. they deservedly lost 2-1 today. i really hope this isn't a sign of things to come.

after that game, i had to take a fucking shower. had to get the stink of that loss off of me. thankfully, i think it fucking worked.

the New York Rangers actually fucking won today. they defeated Nashville 4-2. this was the closest they have come all season to actually playing 60 minutes of hockey. hopefully they build on that when they play San Jose at home on Monday night.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

NJPW was great last night.

Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus was about Billy Joe Shaver last night. i laughed my fucking ass off.

Real Time with Bill Maher last night was fucking hilarious.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be ROH, Austin City Limits and George Michael: Freedom.

i figure if the Yankees game isn't going the way i am hoping it will go, i will flip to some college football tonight or that George Michael documentary on Showtime.

i did listen to the emergency State of Wrestling that Sam Roberts put out yesterday. i guess the WWE has a viral infection or the mumps going round the Raw locker room so they had to make some changes to the TLC ppv this Sunday. Bray Wyatt is out so now AJ Styles will take on Finn Balor. Roman Reigns is out so Kurt Angle is replacing him. it's been 11 years since Kurt has wrestled in a WWE match. when i saw this news yesterday, i thought someone had hacked their twitter account or something. Sunday should be crazy now. you can find the podcast by going here:

hopefully, tonight is the night

tonight is Game 6 of the ALCS between the Yankees and Astros. if New York wins tonight, they will go on to face the Dodgers in the World Series. i'm sure most advertising execs are hoping that happens. if the Yankees lose tonight, Game 7 would be tomorrow night. hopefully, i will be drinking my ass off tonight.

i wrote 3 poems last night. i typed those up this afternoon. so far i have written 20 poems in the 20 days of October. not bad. 

the New York Rangers lost last night to the Islanders, 4-3 in a shootout. they have 4 damn points through 8 games so far this season. the last time they started this bad was 5 years ago. they made the Stanley Cup Final that year. this team isn't nearly as good as that one was. they play again tomorrow afternoon at home against Nashville. i'm not sure how many losses it's going to take for the GM to decide he finally has to do something.

The Chris Gethard Show was awesome last night.

Fuck, That's Delicious Classics was excellent last night.

Better Things was very good last night.

Gotham was fucking great last night.

Will & Grace was hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, NJPW, Real Time with Bill Maher and Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus.

i'm planning on watching the baseball game for most of the evening. of course, if things don't go the way i am hoping, i will probably watch some NBA or the fucking Food Network most likely.

the grocery store was a little interesting yesterday. the one thing i forget about going late to the store is it is usually ransacked by the elderly by that point. i got everything that was on the list, plus a few other things. i noticed the prices had gone up on just about everything. so, i guess the wildfires in California are finally being felt here. 

i will probably be on tomorrow in the afternoon. i know Manchester United plays in the morning. that game will go right into the Rangers game with Nashville. thankfully, Ohio Sate is off this week.

i hope everyone has a great Friday night and weekend.

review of 50 EURO by Karina Bush

this book should come with a warning label. be careful reading in public, it works faster than Viagra.

it is no secret that Karina Bush has quickly become one of my favorites. her writing is so damn raw and real that you can't help but immerse yourself in that world.

50 EURO is a masterpiece. writing that clearly paints a picture and puts the reader inside the glass in Amsterdam's red light district. i can't give this book more praise than this...

i needed a towel afterwards.

my favorite pieces were "sadface", "ruler", "no roses", "ultraviolet" and "cleanse".

do yourself a favor and get this book and enjoy the fuck out of it.

ahead of schedule

it's hard for me to even imagine the New York Yankees are 1 win away from going to the World Series. before i get deep into that, a couple of things first...

mom had her appointment this morning cancelled. she's on an antibiotic for an ear infection and the doctor didn't want to give her steroids while on that. at least they called before i made the drive down there.

i heard back from Larissa at Rose Red Review on my poetry submission from back in July. she thanked me for the submission but informed she has decided to close Rose Red Review. so, that's 6 more poems back in circulation now.

the Yankees got some great pitching yesterday and finally solved their nemesis to defeat Houston 5-0 to go up 3 -2 in the ALCS. i loved that the Houston players admitted after the game that the Yankee Stadium crowd got to them in the 3 games. the Yankees will go to the World Series if they win Game 6 in Houston on Friday night. this will probably be the most jacked i have been for a baseball game since 2009.

Manchester United won 1-0 yesterday against Benfica in the Champions League. that pretty much guarantees that United will make it out of the group stage. the game was truly fucking boring and if it wasn't for Benfica's goalkeeper making a huge mistake, i doubt there would have been a goal scored in the game. the injuries that United have at the moment are truly catching up with them.

NXT was excellent last night.

Lucha Underground was fucking spectacular last night. i hope to hell there's a season 4 coming soon.

Total Bellas was pretty good last night. that season finale will be next week.

You're the Worst was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Chris Gethard Show, Better Things, Gotham, Will & Grace and Fuck, That's Delicious Classics.

i did listen to the latest Sam Roberts Wrestling Podcast today. you can find that by going here:
http://notsam.com/wrestlingpodcast/2017/10/18/wrestling-podcast-156-robbie-e-conrad-thompson

i haven't really got into the NBA season starting yet. i think i might actually give a shit about it once Christmas rolls around.

the New York Rangers play tonight at home against the fucking Islanders. if the Rangers lose this game, i'm really hoping the GM knows it's time for a fucking change. be it players or the coaches, do fucking something before the whole damn season is lost.

i think i'm going to be a true asshole and make a trip to the grocery store now. i love going once in a while where i'm around people who just got off of work. i fully come across with that i've been retired since i was 26 look. it's fun at times.

i have to go today because if i go tomorrow and the Yankees lose Game 6, then it's my fault. hello, my name is fucked in the head. pleased to meet you.

that's all for me today kids.

and the youth shall lead them...

when the New York Yankees were down 4-0 yesterday, i was not happy. Sonny Gray pitched well enough but once again, his team couldn't score him any runs. thankfully, Aaron Judge, at this point, the second coming of Babe Ruth, hit a titanic homer to center that, as his manager said after the game, provided the spark. the Yankees closed the lead to 4-2 going into the 8th inning. that's where the Yankees exploded for 4 more runs to eventually win the game, 6-4. that ties the series at 2 games each. the all important Game 5 is this afternoon. Houston will be starting the Yankees nemesis, so if the Yankees somehow win today, i really feel like they will find a way to win the series back in Houston.

the New York Rangers fell behind early last night (shocker) but eventually had a lead late in the game last night against the Penguins. thanks to a stupid play from Kevin Shattenkirk, the Penguins and that crybaby Cindy Crosby tied the game at 4. in OT, i guess all those years of playing with shitty defensemen are finally paying off for Ryan McDonagh,. he gave away the puck in OT right in front of The King's net. Rangers lost 5-4 in OT. that was a good way for me to come back down to earth after the Yankees win. fuck me runnin'.

Smackdown was pretty good last night. give me Kevin Owens and a heel Sami Zayn forever please.

205 Live was pretty good as well last night.

American Horror Story was pretty interesting last night.

The Jim Jefferies Show was fucking great last night.

The Voice was very good last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Lucha Underground, You're the Worst and Total Bellas. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

Manchester United plays this afternoon against Benfica in the Champions League. i think i have to find the game on Facebook somewhere. hopefully they get a win.

rest in peace Gord Downie. your shift is over.

i got the results from my x-rays back. no fractures or anything like that. just more fucking arthritis. joy.

i have to get up early tomorrow to take mom to get another injection in her back. i'm hoping that will help her even more than it did the first time around before she had her hip replacement.

i got some great FREE music on NoiseTrade last night. here is the link:
The Love Elektrik - Underneath (Single)

that's all for me kids. i have to go run to the post office to send something out for mom.

that's more like it boys...

i don't think Game 3 could have gone much better for the New York Yankees even if they were dreaming. they got 6 shutout innings from CC, 3 run homers from Todd Frazier and Aaron Judge, and two spectacular catches from Judge as well. the only negative last night was Betances has fucking lost all his confidence in the bullpen. thankfully, only 1 run came out of that fucking mess in the 9th. the Yankees won last night 8-1. they will have a chance to even the series at 2 games apiece this afternoon.

Monday Night Raw was very good at times last night and really boring in others. it's obvious The Shield reunion is in the forefront right now. but at times, it certainly overshadowed the rest of the show. i truly didn't expect Kane coming up from the ring near the end of the cage match between Roman Reigns and Braun Strowman. that 3 on 5 TLC match this Sunday should be rather interesting.

The Big Bang Theory was very funny last night.

i thought The Voice was very good last night. when the battle rounds start, the show really gets good.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Smackdown, The Jim Jefferies Show, The Voice and American Horror Story. i'll watch 205 Live sometime tonight on WWE Network.

the New York Rangers play at home tonight against Pittsburgh. i'm probably going to avoid watching the game as much as possible as i really can't stand how the Rangers are playing these days.

i did get a copy of my friend and (hopefully) future ex-wife Karina Bush's new book, 50 EURO, in the mail today. i will try to get a review posted for that in the next few days.

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

my blood results all came back good. my A1C seems to be under control, so i'm pretty damn happy about that. i still haven't heard about my x-rays though.

that's all for me today kids. i'm going to try to be on here tomorrow before Manchester United plays in the Champions League.

i now have lunch to eat and trash to pick up. and hopefully tonight i'll be enjoying a couple victories and some alcohol to put me to sleep.

one of those games you'll remember forever

i can't count the number of football games i have watched in my lifetime. i suppose between college and pro, i have seen easily thousands of games. the game yesterday between New Orleans and Detroit was one of the craziest fucking games i have ever seen in my life. the Saints started on fire and the defense was playing great as well. when the Saints got up 45-10, it was like i was living a fucking dream. sadly, human nature took over and the Saints took their foot off the neck. so the Lions then scored the next 28 points. now the score was 45-38. i'm in my room cussing loud enough that the next city could probably hear it, wondering how the fuck the Saints were going to fucking blow a 35 fucking point lead. thankfully, the Saints defense scored again (their 3rd touchdown in the game) to seal the victory, 52-38. 4 damn hours of one of the craziest NFL games i can ever remember. the Saints are now 3-2, the first time they have been over .500 in 4 or 5 seasons. they next play at Green Bay. that game suddenly became winnable now that Aaron Rodgers is injured.

i sent out 9 poems today. 5 to The Homestead Review and 4 to HST Quarterly. when i hear back from these places i will pass along the verdicts.

Last Week Tonight was fucking hilarious last night.

Ray Donovan was really good last night.

The Deuce was excellent last night.

Vice Principals was good last night.

Curb Your Enthusiasm was very funny last night.

i really wanted to like White Famous last night. i watched the first two episodes and while there were a few laughs, that was 60 minutes of my life i'll never get back. it simply wasn't funny enough for my Sunday night rotation.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, The Voice and The Big Bang Theory. i'll be watching Monday Night Raw for most of the evening.

the New York Yankees play Game 3 of the ALCS tonight at home against Houston. this is basically a MUST WIN game for the Yankees. they haven't lost at home yet in the postseason, so i really hope that continues tonight.

i made a little trip to the bank today. i don't think the woman that flirted with me works there anymore. there's the story of my life.

i will be on here tomorrow before the Yankees play in the afternoon. i'm really hoping that will be a game where the Yankees can tie the series.

i hope everyone had a great weekend.

digging holes in the rain

i don't really like the fact that at 41 i can tell hours before it's going to rain by just how my back and left leg are feeling. nothing quite says you're getting old like arthritis stopping you in your tracks while simply trying to walk to the kitchen. good times.

the New York Yankees lost again yesterday 2-1 to Houston. they are down 2-0 now, which sucks given they could have easily won both games. Houston is a really good team, and they play the game the way you are supposed to. good defense, make contact, don't strikeout, take the extra base, etc. the Yankees are trying to hit the ball out of the park every time they come up to the plate. that's why they have 7 straight games with more than 10 strikeouts. it's so fucking frustrating to watch. and sadly, i did watch yesterday. Game 3 is Monday night back in the Bronx. the Yankees better hope they figure out a way to win that game.

the New York Rangers scored first last night. and for some fucking reason, that brought out the best in New Jersey. the Devils won 3-2 last night. as i wrote in the Rangers group i am in on Google+, they are either playing to get AV fired or they fucking suck at the moment. the sad answer is probably both. they next play on Tuesday at home against Pittsburgh. joy.

thankfully, Ohio State whipped Nebraska last night, 56-14. and honestly, it never felt that close. J.T. Barrett had 5 touchdowns passing and 2 more rushing last night. they are off next week, hopefully getting ready to find a way to beat Penn State in Columbus in two weeks.

Saturday Night Live was pretty funny last night.

ROH was excellent last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Last Week Tonight, Ray Donovan, The Deuce, Vice Principals, Curb Your Enthusiasm and White Famous.

the New Orleans Saints play at home this afternoon against Detroit. this should be an interesting test for the Saints defense today. hopefully they play well enough to get a victory.

i'll probably do a little poetry work as well today. i have a couple places in mind that i need to send poems to.

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

not exactly how i wanted to start the weekend...

i was up at 6 this morning. i wanted to make sure i was ready for the Manchester United game. it was pretty clear from the beginning that Liverpool was the better side today. i think United had 1 shot on goal for the entire fucking game. that being said, if you're going to park the bus, you have to get the point for the draw. and thanks to the best goalkeeper in the world, David De Gea, United was able to get that point. United plays again on Wednesday in the Champions League.

the New York Yankees lost last night 2-1 in Game 1 of the ALCS. at least i get to watch them play again now. that will happen this afternoon when Game 2 starts. i'm hoping the Yankees can win today since games 3, 4 and 5 are in Yankee Stadium. the Yankees have the best home record in the majors this season.

i flipped on the New York Rangers game last night right as Columbus scored to take the lead. great fucking timing. the Rangers lost 3-1. hopefully they erase that from their system quickly as they play New Jersey at home tonight.

thankfully, the high school i went to won their football game last night, so i could do a little drinking while i was writing last night.

i wrote 6 poems last night. i typed them up last night as well. i really like this batch. i'm going to try to get a submission out early next week i think.

the season finale of VICE last night was excellent.

the season finale of Room 104 was really good last night.

Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus was fucking hilarious last night.

happy Friday the 13th

i was up way too early this morning to go to the doctor. mom had an appointment right after me. we got there on time, thankfully. i had to get some blood drawn and a flu shot. plus, the doctor ordered some x-rays for my back and left hip. i did those this afternoon. more on that in a bit. after mom got done, we went out to breakfast at Waffle House in town. i think it has been almost a year since mom went out to eat at Waffle House. i didn't recognize our waitress, but i surely wouldn't mind seeing her again. hopefully Cassidy enjoyed the healthy tip.

after breakfast, i got home and decided to wait until all the pills would be ready from the pharmacy to go out and get my x-rays done. i'm not a big fan of making three and four trips in a day when one would suffice. so i went to the place mom always has to go for her appointments and physical therapy to get the x-rays done. the woman working the desk couldn't understand what my last name was. i eventually pointed out like the soup and it finally clicked. the x-rays were fucking painful. i hate being flat on my back. and then getting into the fetal position was fucking fun. i'll be interested to see what is wrong. the tech was stunned that i had no questions. i laughed, saying in my head, just because i look homeless doesn't mean i'm fucking stupid. from there i went to the pharmacy to pick up the pills. 4 for me and something like 10 for mom. oh fucking joy. and since mom's insurance is all screwed up because of getting terminated, i had to wait for all that to get worked out before it could be rung up correctly. $95 later, i was finally on the way home.

i figure given that it's Friday the 13th, my x-rays will probably show something fucking horrific.

or maybe that's just a wish.

Vice News Tonight had another great week of shows.

The Chris Gethard Show was so fucking uncomfortable last night it was great.

Better Things was really good last night.

Gotham was fucking fantastic last night.

Will & Grace was hilarious last night.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be VICE, NJPW, the season finale of Room 104 and Mike Judge Presents: Tales from the Tour Bus.

the New York Yankees play Game 1 of the ALCS tonight in Houston. i won't be watching as they have won 3 straight with me not watching. i have a feeling that streak may end tonight as they have had hardly any success ever against Houston's starter tonight. hopefully i'm wrong.

the New York Rangers play tonight in Columbus. i don't know if i'll watch any of that or not. maybe if the Rangers actually score before Columbus does tonight, i might. of course, i thought that the last game as well and the Rangers gave up a goal 15 seconds in.

i will probably be on here tomorrow after Manchester United plays those fucking cunts from Liverpool. i will either be in a great mood or be ready for an endless display of i didn't know that curse word worked real well there.

i hope everyone has a great fucking weekend. get stoned. get drunk. enjoy life before that fucker in the White House kills us all.

it almost feels like 1996 again

i once again didn't watch any of the New York Yankees last night. it worked for the previous two games, so why not... it was painful walking over to the computer every 10 minutes or so to see what the score was. when the Yankees were up 3-0, i was thinking, holy shit, they might actually do this. when the Indians made it 3-2, i stayed away from the computer for a bit. i was online when Brett Gardner had his epic at bat in the 9th that gave the Yankees a 5-2 lead. when Chapman walked a guy in the bottom of the 9th, i got off the computer. i wasn't going to do anything that i could blame a sudden loss on myself. thankfully, Chapman got the outs needed and the Yankees came all the way back from being down 2 games to none to beat the fucking Cleveland Indians. as a guy that lives in Ohio, i know plenty of Indians fans. and they know i'm an asshole that will rub this in their faces for years. what i truly love about this team is they are way ahead of schedule. they traded away so many stars to "rebuild" and under a year later they are 4 wins away from going to the World Series. now, the task ahead of them will be a hard one. they haven't had much luck against Houston for a number of years now. and i don't think they will beat the Astros if Judge and Sanchez do next to nothing like they did against Cleveland. but, just like in 1996, another year no one saw it coming, just keep winning and shock the fucking world.

part 3 of Ultima Lucha Tres was excellent last night. next week could be the final episode of Lucha Underground. i know it's going to be 2 hours long, so if it is the last episode, i fully expect them to go out with a bang.

NXT was really good last night.

the season finale of Mr. Mercedes was fucking great last night.

You're the Worst was great last night.

Total Bellas was pretty good last night.

i think i may have found a new favorite alcohol last night. Jack Daniels Tennessee Fire. holy shit was that good.

the grocery store(s) went well yesterday. it felt like it was going to rain the entire time i was out, so i had fun plowing through that pain. the guy at the first store didn't give me everything i bought, so i had to go back in and get the bag that apparently i left behind. i was already pissed since the battery on the keys for the car died. so i actually had to manually lock and unlock the car. what the fuck. then i had to get gas. some lady didn't do the courteous thing and pull to the second pump so i could go around and be at the first pump. so i fucking blocked her in to get gas. she wasn't amused and then saw me get out of the car. she then thought better of it. the rest of the grocery shopping went pretty good. the store was pretty dead, which was fine with me.

i'll be on here tomorrow sometime after my appointment with the doctor in the morning. i have no clue if i'll have to get x-rays tomorrow or not. i know mom has an appointment right after me with him, so i think we are going out to breakfast afterwards. that should be interesting.

that's all for me today kids. i have to get started on dinner. those appointments tomorrow are at 8 in the morning, so i might actually have to get to bed before 4 in the morning. maybe.

hello darkness, my old friend...

the problem with living and dying with your favorite sports teams has always been the dying part. and last night gave me a feeling i haven't had in 16 years. watching the US Men's National team somehow find a way to lose to Trinidad & Tobago 2-1 while Panama and Honduras won was fucking surreal. that all means the United States will not be in the 2018 World Cup in Russia. this is exactly what i feared when they lost the first two games of qualifying. and now the unthinkable has happened. it's the first time the USA won't be in the World Cup since 1986. i'm truly hoping that US Soccer does the right thing and burn the fucker to the ground and build it back up the correct way. and it's such a fucking shame that one of the best young players on the planet, Christian Pulisic, won't be able to show the rest of the world what he's capable of. i was hoping to wake up this morning to the news of resignations from the head coach and president and just about everyone else in US Soccer. of course, that didn't happen. i'm not sure what is going to have to happen for them to recognize their own fucking arrogance.

the New York Rangers lost last night to St. Louis 3-1. they ran into another hot goalie, which they can't help. they can help having the right players playing, but AV refuses to allow that to happen. when there are 5 guys playing that should be in the minors, you're not going to win games against good teams. plain and fucking simple.

last night was the end of the blind auditions on The Voice. now the good shit starts.

The Jim Jefferies Show was fucking great last night.

Smackdown was pretty good last night. i absolutely love Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens being together again. endless fucking possibilities of where that could go.

205 Live was pretty good last night as well. i'm hoping that the reports of Neville walking out of the company aren't true. if they are though, i can't blame him. being asked to lose to Enzo more than once would be a little too much to ask for for any wrestler/performer with any fucking pride.

American Horror Story was excellent last night. they started the show off with a disclaimer and said they edited some of the gun violence for what happened in Las Vegas. so, when they showed a woman blowing her brains out later in the show, i laughed. i guess not all gun violence needs to be censored.

enjoy some music:

and now some of this and that:

on the DVR tonight will be Vice News Tonight, Lucha Underground, the season finale of Mr. Mercedes, You're the Worst and Total Bellas. i'll watch NXT sometime tonight on WWE Network.

i did listen to the latest Jim Norton & Sam Roberts podcast this morning. you can find that by going here: https://soundcloud.com/jimandsamshow/js-podcast-lawrence-odonnell

the New York Yankees play Game 5 tonight in Cleveland. since they have won the last 2 games with me not watching, i won't be watching tonight either. as i told my mother, if me not watching helps them win a championship, so be it.

i'm doing this a little early today as i need to go to the grocery store. well, actually stores, since one of them has a better price on mom's vice of choice, Diet Coke.

i have no clue when i'll be on here tomorrow. i'm in one of those moods where i can't guarantee i won't end up being arrested at some point today.
