Still trucking…and making it exciting.

HOOK:

“Cubs.”

Did you turn it off?  Did you stay up?  Granted, I ALMOST didn’t check on it.  My lady was going to sleep, lights were off, and I had the muted TV on in the 8th and on and I am mouthing my cheering silently.  What did I get to see?  The greatest ninth inning comeback in the MLB postseason in history (I feel like the fine print says “modern era, even year, on a Wednesday…”).  And, what went from every Cubs fan wondering if there really was a curse and why they were in a Game 5 in the divisional round went TO a moving on miracle victory in Game 4.  Congrats, Cubs fans.  Now you will meet your fate.

Well, unless you have a lead in the 9th.  Geez, Chapman is sick in one inning saves.

“Nats-Dodgers”

Sure, I will watch a little of the Broncos game, but can’t WAIT for these two teams to face off in a winner take all game tomorrow.  Since I have the Nats over the Jays since MARCH, and since my sign off of each blog is from a Nats player, I guess I am rooting for the Nats.

Yes, I know he is kind of a d^&*.

LINE:

“1,40,94, 6,11,12,19,69”

Brandon Randolph is a very good basketball player in the class of 2017.  He is actually the 40th ranked player in that class.  He has committed to Arizona.  This means that Zona now has the #1, #40, and #94 players in next year’s class all committed.  You can say a lot of things about Sean Miller, but dude can RECRUIT.  He HAS to break through at some point with this ridiculous talent.  Year after year.  What are the other numbers in the title of this hook?  Oh.  Those are the five star recruits he is STILL IN talks with in the same class.  #11 visits this weekend.

SINKER:

“Bow.”

Brandin Cooks will continue to do the bow and arrow celebration (well, he has been doing it for three years and does it for a reference from the bible).  Josh Norman just got fined.  Let them do their thing.  Is the problem the actual shooting of the arrow?  Cooks says he will think of an alternative method on this.  Are the penalties/ fines because it was mouthy Josh Norman doing it?  Is it because it was mouthy Josh Norman from the SKINS who was doing it?  We have to cap celebrations.  I get it.  But, let’s not cap enthusiasm that hurts no one.  Chad Johnson is out of the NFL.  These are now just movements.  I think the NFL is under enough duress from concussions and Goodell dictatorships to cap ALL of these acts of joy.

THE RIVER:

-McGregor doesn’t want to fight in Vegas after his $150k fine.  I agree that the fine was too high.  WITH 50 hours of community services.  Listen, UFC.  Hate to break the news to you.  HE is in control of this situation with his recent win.

-Rousey will fight again.  Not sure I care anymore about her since she lost.  Her invincibility WAS the catch.  It is gone.  Therefore, so is a lot of the aura.

That’s it for today.  Will I blog tomorrow?  That is a CLOWN question, bro.  Peace.
