Hey look, I know how serious shit
is out there these days. But for today, I just
want to kick back and enjoy things.
Saturdays. Is there a better day of the week than this? Hell no. So how do we all celebrate Saturday? Yeah granted some work, some have “the duty,” and still others have the one day of the week to fix the house and do yard work, and God knows what else. Kid Rock probably explains it best…
Me, so glad you asked. BBQ all day long, under the Purple Sky with
my non-alcoholic drinks, music, and family.
Let’s get to it, but first let’s bang this blog out.
What else?
Tour de France. I was
very excited to see it come back, and with it going early in the morning, I
don’t have to clog up my day watching it.
MLB. I’m not a honk
for MLB, I think they can stand on their own, but darn if they aren’t having
quite the season – albeit shortened. Chicago
(AL), San Diego, Tampa, and others are quite the surprise thus far, and it’s
too bad that they aren’t receiving recognition.
Shame on me for not mentioning
it, but the other day one of the Chicago White Sox threw a no-hitter – and you
NEVER heard about it. Lucas Giolito
threw it on Pittsburgh. No folks, it
doesn’t make it any less impressive if he threw it against AAAA Pittsburgh or
the 1927 Yankees.
Now that I mention it, the red
hot Chi Sox are now in a three way tie for the AL Central. There had been some talk about the Pale Hose
really putting things together, and it sure seems as though. Minny might be a bit of a disappointment,
they should be way ahead in this division, but they have struggled with KC and
lately Cleveland and that ain’t helping.
NBA. So I see the
players are back. OK, that’s good – for the
gambling degenerates and those who worship at the altar of NBA playoff games. At this point, while I believe that quietly
they do things within their community, I want to see them lead the charge from
the front in terms of the social justice debate.
NFL. For the first
time in 50 years, I’m not sure what to expect in a football season. Yes, it will be welcomed back – IF they
actually get back on the field. I know I
have questions about the Vikings – certainly how they will perform without
Stefon Diggs and a retooled defense, and the always inconsistent Kirk
Cousins.
It seems that the only sure-fire
thing is the Chiefs, 49ers, and Ravens as the top three teams, but really, how
sure are we that San Francisco is as good as the hype laying on them? No experienced WRs is going to hurt, and my
guess is that extra focus will now be had on George Kittle.
Maybe I’m getting soft, but… I just saw this video and while
it isn’t “hard journalism”, it just seems to me that there is a story to tell
here – about the good in man, the spirituality and relationship between man and
animal, hell, I don’t know. I just
thought it was a cool story:
OK, enough of my drivel, get your ass out there and enjoy your Saturday.
