Take on straight white men

I've felt it for weeks, I am not sure what it was but it all felt way too much like 2016. We learned a lot about our country, most notably that straight white men suck...Hispanic men aren't far behind.

We straight white men can't phantom the thought of a female president so much that we straight white men vote against everything we claim to hold true all of our claims of equality and family values, all in the name of bullshit machismo.
We straight white men are the ones that held her back, we straight white men are the ones who couldn't be talked to let alone convinced and we straight white men are the ones who will be so overly boastful now. We straight white men prove again that despite our claims not to, we don't respect women; and we straight white men especially don't respect a black woman.


This one is squarely on us. Sadly, we aren't the ones who will pay.

Take on the 2024 Election live results

We knew it would be a long night and we knew it would take a few days more to sort it all out and maybe declare a victor but the first three plus hours of this has been anything but enjoyable. I am not sure what the internal polling was telling democrats but it's pretty obvious our country is at best going to make this an election that made us all sweat too much and at worst shove this lunatic down our throats. But most importantly it will show the rest of the world that we are a bunch of imbeciles.
How the hell we would elect a guy whose entire campaign is about his own grievances and his own self interest is beyond me.

Take on NYT news

I can't figure out what event the NYT will decide to push onto my Home Screen and what event doesn't quite meet their high internal editorial standards. Today we got the "inventor of Jansport bags who was really old, dies". We're talking about a brand that has some staying power but a founder we'd ever heard. Please don't shove this down our throats the night of the election.

Take on cheating at youth sports

As a long time youth sports coach, there are a few things I can't tolerate.

Obnoxious parents
Referees who don't know the offsides rule
People cheating on birth certificates

I can't tell you how often I've seen the first two and how little I've seen the third mainly because the rules on the US are petty strict (Danny Almonte aside). But how lame is it to actually think a parent would do this.

Take on Iowa

Nobody has thought of Iow in terms of a presidential election since the caucuses like two years ago.  I'm sure this blip isn't real; mostly because I just don't believe it can possibly be.   We've seen polls fail before and I find that when there is a big move right before the election, it doesn't seem to hold.     But at least, for one night, we can feel a bit of confidence.   The idea that our country isn't completely  filled with mindless bigots is a nice thought because I don't think we can survive another four years of this guy's madness.

Take on the drought

We often bitch and moan about how hot or cold or wet the weather is but holy hell have we had an incredible fall. It's been warm and dry and everybody has been in a good mood (other than being totally anxious about Tuesday). The leaves turned, we all got a lot more vitamins D and I never once took out my jacket, so what can be so wrong. But it's also November and it hasn't rained since like the summer and now we're being told we can't shower or bath which is going to do wonders for the people shoved in tight spaces when it's 80 degrees. But what this time will really prove is who is a team player and who is a selfish slob who will have a green lawn, a full pool and clean armpits.

Take on the endless barrage of campaign emails

I'm excited for Tuesday mostly to get my inbox and text messages back. You think you do the right thing by donating to defeat the biggest tyrant our country has seen since King George and the thanks you get is the constant spam from every corner. I'm all for fundraising but thy have gotten to the point that the Stop2End thing isn't worth the effort anymore

Please give me peace.

Take on Trump's makeup

While Biden decided that the October surprise was going to his basket of deplorables moment as a final FU to Kamala for showing him the door, Trump was at some rally doing his normal neo-Nazi crap. The conspiracy theory, victim blaming. Xenophonic rhetoric is all kind of par for the course but what has continues to befuddle me is how much more makeup he's adding.

He's like the guy who wants to make it appear like he's growing hair back but doesn't take his time. So overnight he goes from looking like Mr Magoo to looking like Stumpy Alec Baldwin.
The color tone is so odd too, it seems like he's channeling his inner zwarte piet.

Take on the Bronx

The dude who ripped the ball out of Mookie Betts' glove is going to be a legend in the Bronx. I mean it was utterly ridiculous and shows the low class these loser are but if Jeffrey Maier can get free ice cream for life, this maricone should get free bud lite for weeks.

Take on the Nazi rally

There is no perfect person to host the big Trump Nazi rally than Jim Dolan. He's never had a moral position worth anything and he loves making money.

The dude is a vile human, bad sports owner and I believe a close friend of Harvey W. I can't stand this dude but the fact he benefited from this debacle on American democracy is no shock. I just wish we could get him back ro irrelevance.

Take on the Nazi rally

Trump's Nazi rally at MSG had the typical cast of characters including Rudy and the Trump brothers but also brought a couple of new burners including the comedian who called Puerto Rico the garbage dump in the ocean. How this county can see this blatantly racist crap and seem unbothered or even funny makes your question all humanity.

Take on mayor Adams

Can Eric Adams just go away?? I've been part of this city for nearly 30 years and nobody has been a bigger disaster than Adams and those includes Rudy who so famously burned it all to the ground. We can't hope that his service will end soon because I'm not sure we can take another kick to the groin.

Take on the WaPo

When a bunch of rich guys own our media outlets, they somehow decide to get scared. It happened in California last week and now Jeff Bezos is runninf scared of Trump and saying the Post will no longer make endorsements for president.
He's killed small businesses and now he's going to have this on his head.

Take on two weeks.

At what point do we start to say this just lunacy, we are less than two weeks, wait less than 10 days away from the most important election of our lifetime. I know that it has been overstated but I can't tell you how important this one feels.

When they said that Kamala didn't perform well at the CNN , this is where our media isn't being responsible. What they really should've said that Kamala and Trump are taking two entirely different tests. She may stumble on a question about Ukraine, while he's praising Adolph fucking Hitler.

At what point does this country come to their senses? At what point do we realize this isn't just some fringe craziness. Half our electorate believes that Donald J Trump is the second coming.

I know the assignment. Question is is the rest of the country know it.

Take on Trump's Hitler love

We have less than two weeks to make sure that we don't elect a president who has invoked Hitler positively. I can't believe this needs to be said but when a candidate has made it known he wants to be seen as a fascist; we shouldn't just vote against him but we should run for the frigging hills if he's elected.

Take on fat mahomes

Been thinking about this.  Mahomes is like Jokic.   He's the best player in the league that is supposed to be dominated by athletes but looks like a total slob. 

Show them both topless and it looks like me and a couple of buddies hanging out at the pool in the Hamptons, Jokic or Mahomes both have no muscle definition and are easily carrying an extra 20 pounds.  They look more like middle managers than elite athletes.  

But it's not just the eyeball test when they both play, if somehow looks like they are playing in slow motion. Nobody can seem to stop them even when they are basically stationary.   It's so weird

take on Tua

Tua said he wasn't going to wear a guardian cap because he's obviously already suffering from CTE. I get the idea of personal choices but if I'm the Dolphins and I'm on the hook for that contract, I'm not letting the dude on the field without every possible bit of protection out there. Either that or we strap him down and make him a punt returner.

Take on Arnie

We all love Jack but there really was nobody bigger than Arnold Palmer. I remember reading stories about him as a kid, he was the first to need a full time caddy as he was already carrying around a personal bag of clubs. Then when we all thought his legend couldn't grow, he came out with a drink that is absolutely something any kid could already invented themselves but what made his so legendary was how much the ladies loved it.

But still his legend never got bigger than it got today.

Take on Bret Baier.

No one is a bigger lose than Bret Baier and not only because he spells his first name like an idiot. He was suppose to be the least partisan part of the entire FoxNews team and if he had any credibility before last week, he lost that too. What's amazing is how Kamala stood up to him and all his bullshit mansplaining. This reminds me of when a referee in a basketball game wants to make the game about himself because this was all about him wanting to be able to go back to Daddy Trump and show him the goods.

What a fat loser

Take on abused chickens

When you are served what looks like a bunch of chickens which have been physically abused, you realize that the world is sort of upside down.  We Americans love white meat chicken but a proper Asian wouldn't be caught dead eating that flavorless cardboard.  

Eyeballs, guts and gizzard are delicacies and as much as I'm adventurous with my eating,I'm not that adventurous.
