It was only the first official Premier League football match away at Portman Road under the Amorim reign as manager. The Reds were very lucky to escape Southampton with a 1-1 draw, despite scoring in the first two minutes of play. Not until the final ten minutes of play did United revive a dead offenseContinue reading “Great (and not so great) Expectations”

Changes
Finally! My beloved Manchester United Red Devil football club has given manager Erik Ten Hag his walking papers after guiding the team down as low as we have ever been in the Premier League. I never cared for the man, I admit, but he never really did anything during his tenure that changed my opinionContinue reading “Changes”
The Long Wait is Over
For me, anyway. The start of the Premier League football season begins today with my Manchester United Reds hosting Fulham, a team that sneaks into the top ten on occasion, but are in no danger for the top six spots. Now, although I am very skeptical about the retention of manager Erik Ten Hag, IContinue reading “The Long Wait is Over”
Can You Just Imagine?
One of the benefits of being a bit off-kilter (a polite way of saying nuttier than Cooter Brown) is that there is a non-stop reel of craziness that runs 24/7 through my gourd. If you doubt my craziness, I just wrote nuttier than Cooter Brown. Truly bad cinema. People that know me have come toContinue reading “Can You Just Imagine?”
Shake Things Up!
Life is so fun because it is what you make of it. If you want to spend your life adhering to the norm and fashioning out your own routine within that framework, more power to you. I like to shake things up from time to time, especially with my perfect foil, the Domestic Despot. ForContinue reading “Shake Things Up!”
It’s Not Like it Used to Be
Nothing is. Nor should it be. I say that wistfully, after getting a glimpse of the upcoming Derby Day clash between my beloved Manchester United Red Devils and the powder blue faggots from Manchester City. I am a lot of things, but I am not stupid. If I was still a betting man, I wouldContinue reading “It’s Not Like it Used to Be”
Don’t Ya Just Hate it When…
People use their “platform” to shove their beliefs, be they from the religious, business, or political arena, IN YOUR FACE? Ben and Jerry shut the fuck up about politics. You are ice cream makers. Why do people feel cheated if you merely listen to whatever horseshit viewpoint they have? What? You don’t AGREE with me?Continue reading “Don’t Ya Just Hate it When…”
Can We Be Perfectly Honest?
Even in retirement, with no daily routine or agenda to adhere to, would I devote even one microsecond of thought to the condition of Jeff Bridges’ cancerous tumor. No pictures needed, thank you. Those are the same people that take and send pictures of the food they eat. Reality alert. Nobody cares. A couple ofContinue reading “Can We Be Perfectly Honest?”
Post #800!
I woke up this morning with the worst throat cold ever, but I couldn’t blow off practice, so I showed up anyway. Just my (our) luck. I have been madly, vainly, searching for a drummer to hook up with us and complete the band. So not one, or two, but three potential drummer-bandmates have askedContinue reading “Post #800!”
Oh Joy!
Baldy Pooty-Poot-Putin is having to impose a mandatory draft on hundreds of thousands of his people to use as human fodder on the Ukrainian front. The female Russian medics sent to the front lines have it worse. They are being sexually abused and passed around by officers for their personal satisfaction. Trump says he “feelsContinue reading “Oh Joy!”
