My Blather On.... Length of Baseball Games; April 8th

..and Removing The "Bo-o-o-o-oring" Factor!
    Years ago~back in the late 70s; early '80s~I used to attend Sunday KC Royals' home games.  I'd take my 12-year-old charge, "Mysti" cuz [then] Royals Stadium [now: Kaufman Stadium] was less-than-an-hour ride on my ol' Suzuki 750cc 'Water Buffalo.'  At that time I never thought that MLB had a "boring" factor.  I enjoyed both the game itself, the hot dogs and sodas as well as watching all the kids having the times-of-their-lives... and besides that.... it only cost a "buck-ana-quarter" to get in!!
    Today the game is entirely different.  It seems to take 'forever' to complete one!  But I have a cuppla suggestions to help the game along:
  • 1.  Teach every player [and test 'em on this] how Velcro works!!  Once they learn, they won't have to adjust the dam' battin' gloves after each pitch!
  • 2.  Teach every player [and test 'em on this one too] how a jock-strap works and what the possible benefits are.  Once they get their nuts in place, there should be no need to adjust them after each pitch!
  • 3.  [Bonus] Allow each batter only two "step-outs" at each plate appearance, of course excepting injury... and no, a miss-placed testicle is NOT an 'injury!'
That's all I got.
Til Nex'Time....

Is All This Arrogance Really Necessary?

Like Politics, All Arrogance Is Local     After reading Dr Walter E. Williams ' column titled " Blacks and obama ," it brought to mind a recent incident in downtown Rochester, N.Y., although the two aren't really related.  Seems three negro miscreants out of the entire high school basketball team decided to make asses of themselves while waiting for a city bus.   The city police arrived, acting on a citizen's complaint~~ that the thugs were not only blocking the entrance to a store ~~that they were preventing passersby from advancing through the kerfuffle.       What " News 8 Now " is conveniently leaving out of this story~~ as they normally do ~~is the real meat of the situation.  That the arriving patrolman requested a seargant to assess the situation, that the seargeant requested a lieutenant to assess the situation.  The patrolman~~ and maybe the other two ~~was subjected to at least one " fuck-you " and quite possibly more.  All three

This 'n' That, December 16th....

  Biden's Jis Plain Stoopid     We all remember "Mayor pete," right? I sure as hell do, he impressed me as a lil' twurp with nota helluva lot to say of import.  Now "the big guy" is proving himself dumb enough to appoint lil' petie to the head of the Department of Transportation.     That will put petie incharge of all things airplane, all things trucks, all things highways; all things ocean-going; amongst many, many other things.  Yrs ago, I was a truck driver-in fact I even owned my own tractor [the 'truck' part]-so I kinda know abit from which I speak.     Someone of the LOI crowd is likely to ask lil' petie..... "What's the biggest problem facing the truck driver today?" He's likely to say something to the affect; "The trucks are too fast; or, the trucks are too heavy; or the trucks are always in the way......"  Not so!!  The greatest problem-nationwide-is TRUCK PARKING!!  I left over-the-road freight relocati

       More Democrat Bullshit :   More proof that Dr Fauci  [er Falsley] enjoyes his political power and being the highest paid official in the federal government... we're likely supposed to keep our masks on in perpetuity!  Texas and Florida have been mask-free for months and Covid infections have been dropping like-a-brick in those two states as well as other states, other areas.      Gas Shortages, Border Surge, Inflation.   This is what one gets when electing a bureaucrat to replace a proven businessman!  One may not have approved PRESIDENT Trump 's decisions, actions, but one should realize that said actions had the country's best interest at heart!!  Nearly every vote cast by SENATOR biden was on the wrong side of history.  Said senator couldn't win a nationwide election by himself so the "fix-was-in."  This is evident with biden leaving his basment once or twice a week to visit his home town or one of the neighboring states/cities.  This while PRESIDE
