Go Guardians!

The Guardians beat the Rays 7-3 last night, taking game 1 of their best-of-7 series.

They are back at it again tonight. First pitch is at 8:00 which means I might be able to watch 4 or 5 innings.

⧫
The Bruins take on the Sharks tonight. Puck drops at 11:00 which means I will not be watching any of that game.

⧫
I got no sleep last night and I had a very busy day today.

That means this is a short post.

Then again, they've all been kinda short lately...

Go Brewers!

The Brewers managed to hold off the Dodgers last night, beating them 2-1 and taking a 1 game lead in their best-of-7 NLCS series.

Game 2 of their series is this evening at 5:00.

Game 1 of the ALCS between the Guardians and the Rays is tonight at 8:00.

As much as I miss watching the Red Sox, it's nice to have baseball to watch.

Go Guardians!

Update at 8:30pm:

Brewers win!

I'm not sure how to feel about this.

On the one hand, the democrats spent a lot of time conducting an investigation into Trump and searching his residence so I can't help but think this is payback for that but on the other hand, if she did lie on her paperwork, she should not be in congress. Hell, she should not be in this country.

Then again, I don't like her so it really doesn't matter what I think.

The White Sox are on vacation

Every year, if the Red Sox don't make the playoffs or they exit it early, I pick two teams to root for. I pick one AL team and one NL team. I usually pick teams that have several players or maybe a manager I know. Usually one, or both, of those teams washes out of the playoffs fairly early and this year was no different.

I picked the Padres and they lost to the Brewers in the NL divisionals.

I picked the White Sox and they lost to the Guardians in the AL divisionals

So now I'm rooting for the Guardians & the Brewers because I don't like the Rays and the Dodgers have won enough world series...

The NLCS starts tonight with the Dodgers @ the Brewers.

Go Brewers!

The ALCS starts tomorrow night with the Guardians @ the Rays.

Go Guardians!

In football news, the Patriots beat up the Raiders 45-17 this afternoon and they are now .600 on the season.

That win puts them 1 game behind the Bills in the AFC East and gives them the #1 wildcard slot. Yes, I know it's early in the season but it's really not all that early. This is week 5 of a 18 week season so they are more than ¼ of the way through it.

Their next game is Sunday the 18^th against the Jets.

And another win

The Bruins beat the Flyers 5-1 this afternoon.

The Bruins simply outplayed the Flyers, taking 32 shots on goal to the Flyers 15.

Now they head for the west coast which means I won't be watching any hockey for the next 3 or 4 games.

Well, Dementia Donny is once again making stupid deals that do more to hurt the US than help it.

History tells me that Putin will take the money from Trump, use it to buy drones from Iran and never deliver the diesel simply because he has no diesel to deliver.

When all is said and done, the US will be out billions of dollars, Russia will have a shitload of new drones to attack Ukraine and we will still be paying $6.50 a gallon for diesel.

The man is an idiot.

Nice win

The Bruins didn't just win last night, they beat the crap out of the Mammoth, winning 6-1.

And I'm pretty sure the Mammoth got that one goal in the 3^rd period because the Bruins had kinda slacked off.

They are off tonight and they take on the Flyers tomorrow afternoon. Puck drops at 1:00.

The Guardians are not going away quietly. That series is now tied 2-2 with the final being played tonight at 8:00.

At this point, I don't really care which team wins but whoever it is, I really want them to beat the Rays in the ALCS.

I do not want to see a world series with the Rays as the AL team...

Update: I lied

There is no game tonight. It is tomorow night.

What can I say. I'm retired and days don't matter to me so I don't pay attention to them.

I'm going to say out loud that to my knowledge, there are only two entities that use public executions: Iran and the taliban.

Am I the only one that thinks my country has gone to shit because we are about to join that club? We are about to become no better than the taliban.

Hegseth was a Major in the Army Reserve and then he became a FOX news opinionator. Dementia Donny appointing him as Secretary of Defense was almost as stupid as the appointment of BrainWorm Bobby to Secretary of Health and Human Services...
