  • NO NFL, NCAA and NO MLB yet so what are you sports nuts watching? It's that major sports lull period for me. 😐

    The "Cadiverliers" are in tailspin although LBJ won a game at the buzzer yesterday - I'm no hoops guy EXCEPT for MARCH MADNESS I'm all in there.

    Thank goodness for the Olympics that start tonight! Thought for a while it might be the NK vs SK missile throwing contest, lol.

    I've been watching "m" vs THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY BUCKEYES lately on ESPN CLASSICS. 

    Golf, sock-her, even hockey can be boring I'd rather watch kids playing in the street......if you can find any, they're all inside playing video games.....no wonder they'll never leave home.

    SO WHAT AM I MISSING ON TV? DON'T SAY THE NETWORK SIT-COMS OR REALITY TV, they stink!

    Ohio State basketball is intriguing now, the occasional NHL game, some midget porn.

    I saw something on the local news about that, Cavs got younger, faster, more physical including Larry Nance Jr a big strong above the rim guy......former Cavs player's kid.

    The frames hit the track causes sparks.

    They say its like watching a car race inside arrowhead stadium because the seating is so steep and close to the track. They have a track near me.

    the truck guys raced here years ago quarter mile track and for some dumbass reason the owner thought he could make more money with it as a dirt track (NOPE) guess he didn't figure the upkeep was so spendy it has been closed for awhile now

    Ive always wanted to get an old beater and bust the windows out to race at dirt tracks around here.

    Demolition derby type of racing where you go home with only the steering wheel.

    Have you been to Bristol speedway?  As I said, I passed by it and stopped to take a couple of photos.   It does look very small....compared to the others I have seen in like Talladega etc.   It is bowl shaped....and only looked a little bigger than like old Three Rivers or Riverfront stadiums, which it reminded me of.

    Ole Jimbo did pretty damn well with all those last minute signees. I like the fact we got a couple of SEC sized RBs to get the tough yards and keep the D off the field. Not a bad haul for such a late start. Has a decent start for 2019 too.

    I don't think we need military parades in this country.  That is what insecure dictatorships do. (of course...we have a wannabe one of those).

    Just a regular patriotic 4th of July parade will do fine.  

    And besides....if a parade to commemorate the end of WWII were to be held...it should be held on November 11 (the date of the armistice) ....not on the 4th of July.  That is for  another event...our Independence.

    Yes WWII had VE day and VJ day and I'm a big WWII buff and couldn't tell you either of them for sure.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Now back to sports, but some of these side trips can be interesting.

    Just off the top of my head:  VE Day was like May 5th or 6th.

    VJ Day was like August 8th.  (both 1945)

    Now I will look them up to see how close I came. 

    Edit:   OK...I was close:    VE Day was May 8, 1945.   VJ Day was August 14, 1945.

    A bomb dropped on Hiroshima  August 6th.....then the next one on Nagasaki on Aug. 9th.

    Kind of amazing some remember 11/11 at 11 am but WWII didn't have the same finish line type dates and times, maybe because it was so spread out all over the world and not just in one theatre of operation. 

    Also many WWII guys like my dad and father-in-law just wanted to come home not talk about it and go to work. Getting raised through the Great Depression had something to do with it.... I think. Total war is never fun.
