Burn Notice
If you aren’t spending Thursday Nights with Michael, Fiona and Sam – you should be!
Burn Notice is the best show on television bar none. It has suspense. It has spys. It has fast cars. It has bikinis everywhere!
Need i say more?
For a complete review….BURN NOTICE
The weekend and me
Tiger Woods lost the British Open. A lot of people think Tiger will no longer dominate golf like he did for the last decade. I don’t believe this is true while stories about him losing are still news.
He is still the best golfer on the planet.
Michael Jordan has been quoted as saying, he wouldn’t of called Larry or Magic and suggested playing together. he explains it was because he wanted to beat those guys. This shows the difference between a real Champion and a guy who thinks he is a champion.
There was no NASCAR race or LPGA, so Dale Earnhardt Jr didn’t win nor did Paula Creamer bend over a put. A shame on both counts.
Online banking may be the best thing that ever happened to husbands who don’t keep up the checking account or mention when they use their debit card.
Does anyone else think my monkey looks like a hairy version of Kyle Busch?
Red Hat Society
Is there anything worse than being out to eat and seeing the Red Hat Society walk into the restaurant? For those of you who do not know; the Red Hat Society claims to be a group of mature ladies who socialize together. In reality they are a gang of noisy, rude women who don’t care about anyone within screaming distance of their shrill elderly voices.
They also claim to be women of varying ages of maturity. I think the number they throw out is 50. 50 my butt! I have never seen a Red Hat who wasn’t at least 70. I truly believe when they are too old for sex they put on their red hats and believe it or not, purple dresses, and go out with the purpose of ruining everyone’s meal at the restaurant they choose.
They are old, loud, obnoxious and oblivious to everyone around them.
I warn you; if you are ever in a restaurant and see a flock of these purple breasted, red crested crows coming at you, pay your check and leave. They will – given the chance – cackle till you ear drums bleed.
I would rather share a meal with Oprah than spend a moment within a mile of these old broads.
Thursday Night
Thursday Night and I am still up. This means I probably wont watch the second round of the British Open. Nice planning! Make sure you get the biggest draw in men’s golf, Tiger Woods, to finish his round before 9 AM on the East coast of America – that will bring the sponsors begging for commercial spots.
It turns out I was wrong; My kids do NOT like chopped jalapenos in their nachos. I will remember this next time I don’t want to share my chips and cheese.
I was right; Chopped jalapenos and freezer pops are good together.
NASCAR is having an off week. They are really having an off week if you didn’t realize this yet.
It was 95 degrees today. Too hot to mow the lawn…..darn!
If Walmart is open all night why do they block every aisle so we can’t shop? Isn’t us shopping the point of being open?
Paula Creamer, Dale Jr and my sports weekend
As I think I may have mentioned, Paula Creamer won the U.S. Open. I like it when an American wins our championship especially if she is blonde, dressed in pink and has the sweetest smile in sports.
Dale Jr did not win this weekend. His car was terrible. The race was terrible. I may have to convert to being a soccer fan if NASCAR doesn’t get different announcers. I don’t think I can stand another three hours of Kyle Petty referring to his own father as “The King”. You don’t hear Dale calling his dad “The Intimidator”.
LeBron James and his meat headed running buddies, Wade and Bosh, are an example of everything wrong in pro sports. Lebron all you did by deserting your home town team was show you are not in the class of Bird, Jordan and Johnson because you are not good enough to lead a team to greatness. You must chase a championship like a spoiled brat who hasn’t received the toy he was promised.
You can make excuses, you can blame other people but we all know the Celtics looked you in the eye and you ran away and hid.
What makes anyone think it will be different in a new town?
I hope Miami enjoys their paper hero.
Paula Creamer Wins U.S. Open
Paula Creamer looking as good as always in a short white skirt and a pink shirt out paced the field to win the 2010 U.S. Open.
Her play this week matched her All American good looks and our favorite golfer made us proud.
It’s nice for a change to see a woman who looks like a female win a LPGA golf tournament.
Congratulations Paula Creamer!
Paula Creamer leads by 3 strokes at US Open
The blond and beautiful California golfer Paula Creamer, who played 29 holes Saturday, is 1 under for the tournament with five holes remaining in a third round that will be completed Sunday morning. The one under gives her a three stroke lead and a real chance at winning her first major.
Paula Creamer’s biggest challenge right now is her sore left thumb. This is only her 4th tourney after having the thumb surgically repaired.
we are keeping our fingers crossed for Miss Creamer – Clubhusband’s favorite golfer.
LPGA misses Great opportunity.
Yesterday at the LPGA U.S. Open, the round was rained out.
They water was pouring from the sky and they told the little hotties to go back inside.
You fools!
You had the opportunity to lead off every sports show in America. You could of knocked LeBron right out of the lead spot.
All you had to so was issue thin white T shirts to a few of the ladies and send them onto the course.
Natalie Gulbis in a wet t shirt?
Paula Creamer in a wet t shirt?
Anna Rawson in a wet t shirt?
Do you really think LeBron James would stand a chance?
Would you rather see another replay of Miami introducing their new big three or the LPGA introducing their wet women of sports and their nice sized six.
LPGA, marketing is using what you have to your greatest advantage. You had a perfect opportunity to become the most watched sports in America and you let it pass you by.
Shame on you!
The Heat of Summer
I can’t take the heat anymore. Is this a sign I am getting old?
I hope not!
I am already seeing too many signs of that phenomenon. Things like constant letters from AARP. The gray hair trying to sneak into the few hairs I have left. The fact I get winded going to the mail box.( In my defense I have a very long driveway and it is really more of a sign I am out of shape.)
These are but a few. Unfortunately the list grows longer everyday but I still think the heat is not one of them. The old people I have been around usual lean the other way (right before they tipped over). They were always cold.
They wore sweaters constantly. Didn’t matter the month nor season. It was always cold.
So maybe it is just hot outside and I am fine. Maybe I just need another freezer pop. Maybe I need one less tequila to fuel my fire. Maybe I need to dip my nuts in the neighbors pool – like the squirrels do.
Will LeBron take the easy way out
LeBron James is going to announce his intentions tonight on ESPN. I want to make a full disclosure before you read further – I will not be watching.
I will even go further to say – why would anyone watch?
You can find out tomorrow when you watch Sports Center. James is not playing for anyone before tomorrow. He will not even practice for a team tonight – so why the big deal?
The big deal is because nothing else in sports is going on. Baseball is about to break for the All Star game. Football is in the off season. Basketball, believe it or not is in the off season. We do NOT care about soccer! Tiger is playing like crap. Paula Creamer is, basically, rehabbing. NASCAR only works weekends.
So LeBron James is the only show in town.
The word on ESPN this morning is LeBron will join Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh in Miami to play for the Heat. Before he does that he should give Rich Rodriguez a call. Ask the former coach of the West Virginia Mountaineers how the fans react to home town boys chasing championships instead of delivering then home. At the very least I am sure coach Rod would advise James to get his family out of town before the announcement.
He might also say the grass is not as green as it looks.
LeBron Jmaes wants to go down in history as one, if not the greatest, player ever to play the game of basketball. This will not happen if he goes to Miami.
First of all the scared names of our time, Bird, Johnson and Jordan led flailing franchises back to glory that’s why they were great. Not once did Jordan, Bird and Magic think, we should all get together and win a championship. No they thought – I am good enough with a little help to win a title.
And they were!
But that is not the biggest reason James shouldn’t go to Miami.
They will not win!
I have played with guys like these three. They come down to the play ground. They play a few games but even though they are good, real good, they don’t win “because their team mates aren’t any good”.
So next thing you know they want to “switch teams around”. So now with their hand picked team they think they are something special. They talk trash. They win a few games. They laugh and show boat against lesser opponents. They think every thing is a big joke.
Then they look for one more opponent.
No one wants to play them so the old guy with a knee brace says, if anyone else will play, he will.
A guy sitting in the shade watching takes about ten minutes to get up and after stretching says, he has one more in him. He puts on his head band and takes a few jump shots.
The ball rolls over near a bald guy with a stroller, about forty feet from the basket. After checking to see if his wife minds he raises up gracefully and drains it from where he was sitting.
They are older. They can’t jump as high. They are not what they once were but they still have more than they need.
Ten minutes ago no one wanted these guys on their team. They are old and beaten up. Now the play ground is going wild as they teach the team switchers there is more to basketball than individual players.
They screen, they set picks, most importantly they don’t care who scores. They are ahead.
Now the team switchers are starting to argue. One guy says the others are hogging the ball. “Pass it to me he yells” but he never passes back.
Finally as the old guys roll it to the super stars he says, game point. They check it and roll it back.
The pass comes in, the team switchers have completely given up. The old guys lay it in and walk away.
They know basketball is a team game.
If LeBron goes to Miami he will learn that lesson the hard way. So will Bosh and so will Wade.
Championships are earned, not caught, in the NBA.
Just ask Larry Bird. Just ask Magic Johnson. Just ask Michael Jordan.
