Take on modern art

I hate modern art. I have no patience for it, see no enjoyment in it and find the entire genre to be self gratification on steroids

But what is more ludicrous is that somebody would pay for this crap; in this case $6million for a banana taped to a wall. I have spent a lot of time contemplating how dumb an idea this is but maybe it's grisly brilliant because some jackhole is willing to spend money on it.

Take on Just End The Season

Somehow the Jets thought their problem was Joe Douglas. This is after they thought it was Robert Saleh.
I have some news for you, the issue is not some henchman. The issue comes front the top down and it's way above the parade of Douglas or Saleh

If you have a fire in your living roll, you can try to pee on the rug but if the fire is burning down the chairs and the couch and the curtains m, I'm not sure your little drops are making much of a difference
Aaron Rodgers is a cancer who needs to go that is for certain but what really has to happen is that this team will never bee good as long as Woody owns it

Sell The Team you Trump loving hack.

Take on Matt Gaetz

Here is a novel idea. Let's put Matt frigging Gaetz as the head of law enforcement for our country. Nobody is sleazier than Gaetz, nobody has less morals than Matt Gaetz and nobody has a forehead the size of that of Matt Gaetz

I find this dude to be so incredibly repulsive that even if he was qualified, which is not, I wouldn't want him anywhere near the most.

God, these next four years are going to suck.

Take on Ronald and the McDonalds crew

The Trump team flew to UFC for some level of ridiculous testosterone and they all got treated to McDonalds which they displayed proudly. We know this comes across a bit odd with RFK Jr but like everything else Trump touches turns into a quarter pounder. I'm not sure these bromances will last all that long but let's hope they all have their arteries significantly clogged.

Take on the cnbc Thread ·

I'm all for journalism but what passes for it today is just ludicrous. A CNBC thread post teases us with what has to be one of the most insanely uninteresting eadlines ever. It talks about Apple releasing 42 phones in the last 18 years which is mildly interesting but concludes their breaking news with the riveting bit of info saying that Apple is now one of the world's most profitable companies. You don't say, I never heard anything like this what so ever. Who knew that Apple was such a success, you'd think that other outlets would able gotten wind of this at some point.

Take on Netflix's failure to launch

They are paying Tyson and Paul a combined $60M but somehow Netflix isn't close to figuring out how to put something like this on. Between the buffering action, the lame announcers, that one field getting her eye poked out of her skull and Jerry Jones this is some of the worst television we've seen in a long time. I'm sure of one thing and this that both Paul and Tyson are in on the joke and this thing is more scripted than a WWE match

Take on Bronny

The entire Bronny James thing has always bored me but when I saw he got demoted to the G league but will only be playing home games, I was floored.   If you are Lord LeBron, why would you want him to have it that easy??  Why not get the work in and use the opportunity for game time experience?   I mean flying commercial isn't that bad and if he was really so concerned, upgrade him to first.    Let the kid be exposed a bit.

Take on the crazies


You've got to be kidding me!! RFK Jr to head health, a fox weekend anchor for secretary of defense and that weird Lee Zeldin guy in charge of the EPA?

But not to be outdone by his own lunacy, he's now wants an accused pedophile for AG and Tulsi Gabbard in charge of intelligence. What's next Thomas the Train for secretary of transportation.

I mean, our nations is going to get what it voted for with this guy, he's getting more nuts by the second and we are going to suffer so hard for it.

Take on the toilet dilemma

Some study was conducted to proved that after sitting on the can for too long, your legs kind of go dead and standing up and falling into the bowl becomes a real fear. I'm not sure what the best thing is but I will say that I'm sure there would be a lot less of the armchair quarterbacking when it comes to science if we weren't all sitting on the can with our phones out.

So get up, wipe up and be done.

The on Little Marco

Little Marco got himself back into the Trump orbit and is now going to be given the biggest cabinet position. I'm not sure what to think but I guess he's better than any one of 100 other lunatics Trump could have nominated. I'm not sure Marco is that bright but at this point it was probably a choice between Marco and Nick Fuentes

Take on the Elon <3 Trump thing.

The Trump-Elon bromance has always felt odd but when one guy can get the other guy huge tax breaks in exchange for some street cred, I guess they both agree. I'm not sure why these ultra wealthy care that much about tax breaks when at some point they have so much they can't possibly spend it even when they have 40 kids.

But the weirdest thing is the way Elon shakes Trump's hand, it's their weirdly effeminate gesture where he turns the palm along Trump to stroke it. It's such an odd visual and thinking of the two of them naked at a Russian bathhouse is something I've now burned into your frontal lobe. I'm sorry.

Take on Trump on a world stage Take II

The free world is about to find out how devastating another Trump presidency will be and truthfully I'm selfishly fearing it. I travel worldwide and the idea of having to explain that my country has fallen into a 1930's German like trap isn't something I'm looking forward to have to explain.

Take on Joe Rogan

Joe Rogan solidified a key demographic for Trump. 20 somethings who don't get laid regularly and spend a lot of time gaming. He assumed that with that boost, he'd have some influence in Trump's orbit and was hoping Trump would be a unifier which is laughable concept. I'm not sure who is more gullible, Rogan or his audience because there is no way Trump's going into any of this without the idea of massive retribution.

Take on the missing 12 million votes.



Looking at the last two elections 

In 2020 Trump got 74M votes and Biden got 81M

In 2024 Trump got 73M votes and Harris got 69M (with a few more to count)


Everybody is going to discuss the electorate.  We are going to try to see where she went wrong.  But if you look at the total vote it speaks volumes

Even if there are a bunch of mail in votes to count, in truth Trump's total vote doesn't change, he gets about 75M each election. 

I'm sure that people who supported Trump did so in '16 and '20.    But democrats went from like 81M to 69M.  Where the hell the did the 12M people go??  


The percentage of white men for Trump goes up because less Democratic white men came out to vote, same with other groups.  Maybe it's not that he got more popular, he seems to have hit his ceiling but more likely the Democrats just can't get the turnout based on their messaging 


They stayed home because she's a black woman.

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.
