In his 1974 novel Dead Solid Perfect, Dan Jenkins wrote the line “Anything you can’t fuck up, you’ll shit on.” I’m sure he couldn’t anticipate the rise of Trumpism, but that applies to the current President. I feel the Red Card against Folarin Balogun was bullshit. But it happens. Bad calls are always made byContinue reading “Red Card Reversal Leaves An Orange Stain On World Cup Match”

USA All The Way
I was never a big fan of the World Cup or soccer in general. But the World Cup fever that has invaded America has brought some light during the darker times. Watching last night’s match between USA and Bosnia/Herzegovina was made more exciting by the Spanish-speaking commentators. And let’s face that was a bullshit callContinue reading “USA All The Way”
Have The Semiquincentennial Celebration You Deserve
With July 4 on a Saturday for America’s 250th celebration and the U.S. this far in the World Cup as everyone seems to love what’s been happening the last few weeks, it should’ve been a greater moment of celebration. Yet the Freedom 250 Great American State Fair is on its way to being a disasterContinue reading “Have The Semiquincentennial Celebration You Deserve”
Keep On Strokin’ Clarence Carter

And Marie Antoinette never said, “Let them eat cake!” about the poor in French and “cake” was never referring to the burnt bread crisp that are almost always discarded.

How The Oscars (And Harvey Weinstein) Have Ruined Movies
It’s no coincidence that a convicted rapist like Harvey Weinstein is back in the news while Oscar weekend is here. Now, this isn’t another smarmy post by some prude for clickbait on how the Oscars are no longer relevant. We live in a world of pageants and Chamber of Commerce annual banquets. Everyone seems to be patting each other on the back for basically doing the same thing overContinue reading “How The Oscars (And Harvey Weinstein) Have Ruined Movies”
A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Super Bowl
No matter what happened on Sunday at the Super Bowl, those on the right were going to act like it was a win for them. There’s a line from the movie The American President where a character says, “How do you have patience for people who claim they love America, but clearly can’t stand Americans?” And I think it’s getting worse now. The SuperContinue reading “A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Super Bowl”
