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”

Dude, Where’s Mitch McConnell?
Today is July 5 and for anyone counting it’s been three exact weeks (21 days) since Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) was reportedly found unconscious and rushed to a hospital. Yet despite reports he is on the mend, there are concerns that he is in very poor health or even still unconscious. There has been someContinue reading “Dude, Where’s Mitch McConnell?”
Suppose They Gave A Narcissistic Octogenarian A Party And No One Cared
Alright, show of hands, who all knew the Freedom 250 events would focus solely on the President and the President only. It’s even funny how some people are blaming the initially announced musical acts cowering to their fans and pulling out. Yeah, the nerve, huh?I mean with musical acts canceling concert tours left and rightContinue reading “Suppose They Gave A Narcissistic Octogenarian A Party And No One Cared”
Keep On Strokin’ Clarence Carter
Forty years ago during the waning years of the Satanic panic, a lot of songs were still under scrutiny by several Christian and/or parental groups. Therefore, a song like “Strokin’” would’ve never played on the radio or even MTV but only late at night. Clarence Carter recorded the song for his album ‘Dr. C.C.’ onContinue reading “Keep On Strokin’ Clarence Carter”
We Love You, Stephen Colbert!
CBS and its parent company Skydance Media can rationalize it as much as they want but canceling The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is politically motivated. This is the type of shady strong arm deals that the President is used to. Yes streaming services are usurping the old fashioned broadcast networks. It was bound toContinue reading “We Love You, Stephen Colbert!”
The Leopard Has Severe Indigestion
I found this image above on a comment section so kudos to whomever made it. I don’t remember where the phrase “I didn’t think the leopard would eat my face” and variants came from. A quick Google search said it was something that became famous on Twitter back during the Fall of 2015 when aContinue reading “The Leopard Has Severe Indigestion”
This Is America, Always Has Been But It Doesn’t Always Have To Be
At the end of the day, this will be the lasting legacy of the Baby Boomers and early Gen Xers. You didn’t work hard for Civil Righrs. That was your parents and elders. And you all know it. Not one single official Baby Boomer was of voting age when the Votings Rights and Civil RightsContinue reading “This Is America, Always Has Been But It Doesn’t Always Have To Be”
A Picture IS Worth 1,000 Words
There are several things certain in sports. At a baseball game the nearest kid always gets the homerun or foul ball. In the mid-1980s, my family went to an Atlanta Braves game. We had seats on or near the front row near first base. A foul play was hit line drive toward us. And thisContinue reading “A Picture IS Worth 1,000 Words”
I Watched ‘Melania’ So You Don’t Have To (And You Really Shouldn’t)
To call Melania is a documentary is an insult. Even though movies like Nanook of the North and Super Size Me have been exposed for faking a lot of the content, they pale in comparison. And to call it a vanity project is an insult to all the vanity projects Jennifer Lopez and Will Smith make. That’s how bad it is. Supposedly, this “documentary” was filmed over threeContinue reading “I Watched ‘Melania’ So You Don’t Have To (And You Really Shouldn’t)”
From Out Of The Frying Pan And Into The Dumpster Fire
I’d thought I’d never admit this but we’d be better off with Kristi Noem as the Secretary of the Homeland Security. But she’s on her way out and her possibly replacement isn’t any better by a longshot. Since he became a U.S. Senator after three terms in the House of Representative, Markwayne Mullin has been walking around Capitol Hill like O’Bannion from Dazed and Confused. He thinks he’s a badass and constantly trying to start fightsContinue reading “From Out Of The Frying Pan And Into The Dumpster Fire”
