One day closer to my fantastic weekend. Compton and Major golf…

August 12, 2015 Filler

Read it, don’t read it, I don’t care…just needed to get some things off my chest.

In no particular order of chronology or importance…

On the clock. Not an airplane rant. Early evening rant on a school night. Semi-speed version. Let’s turn and burn.

Greetings and salutations, people. Thanks for coming aboard (the boat). Got a list. Let’s blow through it. I have to waste/ enjoy the SHIT out of 90 minutes of my life picking my PGA Championship golfers after. Let’s move.
I am Lindless tonight. Supposed to be an adorable takeoff of “listless.” Seinfeld, blogging, ESPN baseball, Draft Kings, Roland keyboard playing all night. Well, I still have the cat I guess to tend to, but I will just throw him rolled up legal pad papers and he will have a blast.
Sounds about right. Player punches QB in face in lockerrom. Player gets kicked off of team. Player gets picked up by team coached by Rex Ryan. Player can spend his upcoming suspension and maybe criminal charges building up his resistance to pepper spray.
Meanwhile, Cam Newton is just picking his OWN fights.
JJ, school night, so very low key pops, my friend.
I don’t discuss work, but I will ballparking that my mood for the next few days is going to be very, very good. Just a wild hunch.
The Cardinals offered Chris Johnson a one year deal. They had a great year last year. They have a winning QB when healthy, weapons on offense, and a strong defense. My gut tells me that CJ673 should jump on this deal.
The Steelers lose their kicker on a return, and then sign a new kicker. They play at Heinz Field, where kicking is tough. I am fine with just an adequate kicker. More curious about the defense. Suddenly, they may be the NFL 2005 Phoenix Suns unless some guys mature quickly.
I already talked about Rousey and Mayweather in yesterday’s blog. Keep up. It was a solid hook that was surprising negative FROM a Rousey fan.
I am pretty sure I am not part of the voting, but don’t count me as a yes on this Notre Dame-Hard Knocks like show. Even if I got past the fact it was Notre Dame, I get how college athletes generally live.
Tough road ahead I am sure, Flip, but we are rooting for you. I would give Eric Berry a call though, because that dude is making the fastest comeback from that stuff I have ever HEARD of.
Go glad and so sarcastic that the Browns want to keep the Ray Rice love IN the AFC North.
Another blog, and another day with the Blue Jays not losing (up 3-2 in the second presently).
Maybe he means it, but pretty sure Aaron Rodgers is more worried about Green Bay weather on these longer PAT’s than player safety. Not saying he DOESN’T care-just saying he probably cares MORE the other way.
Messi had two goals in SOME match, and KNOW, Mr. Messi, that my cat is also in training on soccer and become quite skilled. Sounds like an effort to figure out how to pull in a video of him playing soccer. Moving on.
I don’t feel like anyone is pushing the Spieth-McIlroy rival down my throat. It is what it is, and they rule golf right now.
An NFL poll said 80% of players feel that the Pats didn’t mean to cheat. Love him or hate him-Tom Brady has mad respect in all walks of life.
If someone told me they were starting a Steve Spurrier interview channel, I think I would call Direct TV to make sure I had the channel.
I get the Morris twins feeling like they got screwed when one was traded to the Pistons after they both allegedly signed for less money, but business is business, and you have been lucky to play together so much up to THIS point.Don’t they freaking play the SAME position and therefore should understand that makes it HARDER to keep them. Just text each other.
I am losing track of which Jameis Winston trial is happening now, but keep them coming.
He is weird, off the beaten path, and somewhat abrasive, but Colin Cowherd is like the likable version of Skip Bayless, so I congratulate Fox on picking up the scraps and grabbing him.
Said it months ago here, and they are doing it. I felt a Mariner second half run, and take their recent 7 out of 10 along with today’s no hitter by someone who is NOT King Felix, and there might be something brewing.
I like Kaepernick’s spin on the Jaguar-Mercedes-Aldon Smith story, but we ALL noticed nothing was mentioned about the scuffle during practice and whether it was about a chick.
I assumed EA would end up pulling Kane from their game cover at some point, and maybe I am missing something other than he put himself in a horrible situation (best case), but shouldn’t they wait a FEW more days to pull Patrick Kane?
Ok, that was my ex-political science self talking in the last hook. Probably best just to pull him, and I myself said the other day I got a BAD feeling about this one.
Anyone know how to train cats without them losing their very cool non cat personality? Jackson is a living breathing alarm clock on the other side of the door that might get noise complaints from neighbors at some point, and somehow thinks he is a falcon and should rest on my shoulder most times of the day (fine when he was…a kitten).
I assume you don’t live in a tunnel, so I assume you have seen this picture of Brady, but just in case…here you go.
My PGA predictions will be in Draft Kings and logged, but will be revealed tomorrow during the round. I need time to wrap this up and pull up the last Whistling Straits leaderboards. 2004 and 2010 if you care. But, since you need to have some cheap old guys on your team, you have to pick who played the course the best last time.
Nice home debut, Mr. Cueto…not like anyone was doubting that pickup.
Watched I Am Farley the other night. Pretty freaking well done, and loved the interviews with all of his ex co-workers. The transition from happy to sad was flawless and well done.
I get that he wants to make money while he is young, but I think Tristan Thompson is just enjoying his 15 minutes right now in the spotlight, as he DOES realize he plays with freaking LeBron James/ I get to play in the finals, right?
Most stuff main stream sports doesn’t get by me, but sometimes a quieter story does. This is literally my favorite story of the week. Ryan Broyles-MAD props. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2544046-lions-wr-ryan-broyles-saving-money-for-family-by-sticking-to-60k-annual-budget
If you care about my opinion, YES, MJ is right that he would take LeBron in his prime. Call me older school. Yes, I realize the size difference. But come ON.
Resourceful, DeAngelo. Rich or not, IF I happened to have a job where people wanted my signed cleats, I think IF I lost my orthiotic IN that shoe, I would take to Twitter also. Twitter is freaking POWERFUL for the what is happening now, and yes, I am still bitter that I am STILL hovering at 420 followers. DAMMIT. FOLLOW me. I have personality, people. I tweet 3 times a day, twice each time (one from me, one a retweet)
Someday, I will be an old, senile man walking around asking Matt Flynn questions. Pats released him.
I have noticed later Family Guy episodes remind me of late Seinfeld episodes. Funny as heck still, but some of the dialect and plot that wasn’t forced before now seems a little shovey.
1994 and 1995 were the prime years of Seinfeld.
Am I supposed to have acid before the newer Old Spice Tinder commercial? Seems WAY out there to me.
August 12^th. Need to find a day for Waterworld, and OBVIOUSLY nothing is happening in my life this weekend outside of a couple errands, Straight Outta Compton, and golf.
I will forget to organize anything, and probably just end up at the movie theater by myself on Friday night.
Is this new show Blindspot I have seen commercials for just an altered version of Memento?
Tattoos, no memory. That movie is like Usual Suspects. You might as well clear your night for TWO movies because you will HAVE to watch it again. If you haven’t seen either, shame on you and go…go NOW.
Oh, well, I was done, so you can go anyway. Thanks for reading.
That’s it for today. Hope you enjoyed or are at least more informed. Will I blog tomorrow? That is a CLOWN question, bro.
Oh, at the finish of this blog, the Blue Jays are up 10-3.
