Where have all the good times gone?

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.  Morning rant before the soccer match.  SUPER-SUPER speed version.  Let’s turn and burn.

1. Greetings and salutations, people.  Thanks for coming aboard (the boat).  One sentence hooks as I am I the City of Angels and going to watch one of the biggest soccer matches on this soil ever.  Try and keep it-super SUPER speed version.  Let’s move.
2. If the Blue Jays don’t win this series, it means that all baseball experts getting paid for opinions are wrong.
3. Didn’t we learn from the Royals last year?
4. I was visiting with a client DURING those extra innings-glad my clients have TV’s I guess.
5. This run of dying HS kids is horrific. Hope we are done at five in five weeks.
6. Hope CC Sabbathia fixes his thing, and that the wild card game playoff game loss doesn’t hurt his cause.
7. Hope they ban the WC play in game…soon.
8. Pitino might have had no knowledge of the sex antics going on at UL, and here is hoping that is the truth.
9. Kidd-Gilchrist missing time is a shame for a developing player with mad skills.
10. I think that along with me that Stephen A. needs to think a little more before talking.
11. I think that I respect Marty because he is a fan of a football superpower, but the WAY that Nebraska is losing is painful to watch, with another big game against Wisco today.
12. I am presently talking Lindsey off the ledge for her Sooners, who are down, and I still have them as a playoff team come December.
13. Of course, I also had Georgia and Oregon/ USC as playoff teams too, so what do I know?
14. The Eagles are the most confusing team in the NFL right now, besides the Saints, the Lions, the Ravens, and the Chiefs.
15. My brother is on Twitter, so you should follow him.
16. Once again in my life, I will be where the party is at, and just need to find a red, white, or blue shirt for today’s game…first REAL soccer match for me and semi-check THAT off my bucket list.
17. Semi-check because I still want to go to EURO or the World Cup.
18. This will not be edited today, as I am not with my intern, so I apologize for grammatical errors, and most likely will use “their” when I should have used “there.”
19. Florida football is SO confusing, I have no allegiance, and maybe the Tim Tebow stint just made me hate them forever.
20. I can’t believe how many unbeaten FBS teams there are presently, and Jeff Goldblum would say in Jurassic Park that this is chaos and then pour water slowly down his palm.
21. Bryce Harper doesn’t make the playoffs and then gets passed on the FINAL day for batting average, and ANOTHER year where him and Trout won’t win a MVP but should have.
22. Let’s not put the cart before the horse when talking about the Falcons yet, but DAMN they look good.
23. If I read ONE more article talking about December when discussing Andy Dalton, I will puke, and I actually hate that team because I am supposed to anyway.
24. The Flyers were NOT last in the recent power rankings, so at least that is better than the Phillies and Sixers.
25. I enjoy watching The Voice with my lady and am man enough to admit that.
26. I did NOT know Yogi Berra touched the ball before David Cone through a perfect game WITH Don Larsen in attendance…amazing.
27. I have decided that Myles Jack can do whatever he wants, and we will see him in the NFL next year regardless.
28. Odell, save the punches, bro, as the world is yours.
29. My favorite line of all time besides my blog theme is “I will NOT let a stone take my glory.”
30. Yes, I bring back old lines and songs.
31. Really tired of hearing how many innings Matt Harvey has or hasn’t pitched, but make the workouts, dude.
32. I did not know there was an Ontario, CA until this trip, and sure as heck didn’t know it had an airport.
33. Still a crappy airport…no trains, shuttles, or off site rental cars.
34. The Pirates should still be in the playoffs and I hate the play in game, but happy for Cubs folks I guess, as that losing streak is HORRID.
35. Did we not expect some Fan Duel or Draft Kings person NOT to cheat?
36. I looked at the recent rock and roll HOF nominees and decided that is NOTHING like baseball, as I thought ALL of those people were already in.
37. Wheel of Fortune is my favorite slot machine, but that is only because I think the only place that has the old Ghostbusters on this earth is TI in Vegas.
38. Lindsey told me about an MMA fighter pooping on the mat when succumbed in a fight, and I told her NOT to send that footage to me.
39. I admit to not seeing the Rousey SportsCenter video yet, and may not watch it, as I might think she sucks after.
40. So, South Carolina is off this year, has floods, and is playing LSU now AT LSU?
41. Wow…that just SUCKS.
42. I would like to go out for multiple beers with Duke Williams and share what I have learned as long as he promised not to punch me and my three friends.
43. I really, really thought the Texans would win that Colts game, with or without Luck.
44. I guess I have officially sold out, as I had the Colts in the Super Bowl before the season.
45. Colin, you are ALWAYS fighting for your job, or at least you should SAY you think you are, especially when the wheels are coming off the train.
46. I enjoy mixing and matching cliches.
47. That gun battle Arenas article was intense, and I assume some team is still paying him mad money NOT to play the game of basketball.
48. I like Bennett’s style, holding random people accountable for major events and tragedies in life.
49. Guns blazing, Mr. Hardy?
50. Really?
51. Asking someone for the best dive bar in a town is frustrating, and I would say some qualifications exist around this…dartboards, no website, basement, some all day/always special, and a guy in the corner who says goodbye and hello in a really drunk voice.
52. I found Charles Billiards though, so I am good in this town.
53. Anyone else just hoping the Dodgers lose because they are paying for a World Series?
54. My revised playoff picks will be out tomorrow.
55. Sorry I didn’t post my college football picks last night…lots going on.
56. I am at a big enough sports event this weekend that I admit to not caring about the US in the President’s Cup.
57. The Ryder Cup is better anyway.
58. If pooping on the MMA mat is horrible, then I multiply that by 10000 when talking about LA traffic.
59. I remember almost picking Marshawn Lynch in fantasy in both leagues, but then not doing it.
60. If you go to Glendale and need a cheap place to stay, stay at the Vagabond Inn.
61. Clean, constant fan white noise, good shower pressure, fridge, plenty of bathroom counter space, decent work/blog area, clean beds, bars and shops around, and large TV…my staples.
62. Why is Dwight Howard telling us NOW he had a torn MCL in the playoffs?
63. I have noticed LeSean McCoy’s shit talking has decreased since he hasn’t been healthy like…all season.
64. I feel like I will be 60 and Brian Hoyer will be named a starting QB somewhere midseason.
65. I think the Mariners firing McClendon is just telling fans that they need to change something, and not necessarily the RIGHT thing.
66. Are the Cardinals suddenly the Pats of MLB?
67. Not hated, well respected, but we just want them to lose for some reason?
68. My girl has told me to talk less about people in this blog, but this is my outlet, and I will say that although someone I know whose name starts with a B and ends with an N is really really cool, he is a very very moody.
69. Marty and I had Taco Bell the other day, and realized that we had never, never ordered Taco Bell midday sober.
70. I panicked by the breadth of the menu and just ordered some burrito without beans and with cheese.
71. My other two meals that day were McDonald’s and two hot dogs with cheese on them.
72. Yes, I slightly injured myself possibly going down head first in a kids water slide.
73. Not the first odd injury I have had by far…and I remember learning NOT to hold on to an empty keg in college while toss it down the steps.
74. Small victories.
75. If I mention the juvenile horse, know I can’t talk more about it, it is VERY, very funny, and has nothing to do with Seinfeld and the pony remark amazingly.
76. Scully being out for the Dodgers playoffs isn’t the end of the road, but if I am a fan, I am trying to NOT think how it isn’t a bad omen…every hour of every day.
77. A nice lady at Alamo gave me a free upgrade on my rental car, and I am rolling around in a 2015 Jeep Cherokee, the car I thought I might be buying next.
78. Not buying it, the acceleration is weak, and just going to get an early 2000’s 4-runner instead.
79. As far as the theme, I mentioned the old Ghostbusters game, and then suddenly started singing that Van Halen song…Diver Down is a CD I didn’t appreciate until after the 15th listen or so…shame on me.
80. I was so entrenched in 5150 and 1984 that I forgot to appreciate simple things…shame on me again.
81. Going to a non friendly soccer match-enjoy your day.
82. That’s it. Thanks for playing.  Hope you enjoyed or are at least more informed.  I didn’t cover a lot I wanted to, but there is always tomorrow.  Will I blog tomorrow?  That is a CLOWN question, bro.
