America's game
oh Trent Steelman, hold your head up son, the Nation feels your pain.....in what may have been the greatest game in this storied rivalry, the squids prevailed yet again....that's 11 in a row for those of you keeping score at home....but certainly wiothout question , ARMY should have won this game.....not that I am selling Navy & Coach Ken short, we rose to the occasion, we found a way...we prevailed.......but Oh Army.....how did you find a way to loose this game.?.......i was very happy to see coach Niamatulolo search out and comfort Army Senior QB Steelman....this kid was inconsolable, it had to tug at your heartstrings to watch......they were going in for the winning score and he fumbled on the 10..........as coach Ken would tell the sideline "Those guys in black Jerseys are Tough Suckers" and he meant that with the utmost respect.....this rivalry really does transend life, this is so much more than a football game.....for Navy it's on to San Francisco and a bowl game with Arizona State.....for Army ?? well for the 11th straight year the Black Knights limp back to West Point on the loosing end, come June; for the 8th straight year they will graduate a class of seniors that have never Beaten Navy, have never hoited the CIC or got to sing their alma mater last....and on this day, even the squids feel your pain.....Hang in their Army...Keep the Faith!
Now college men from sea to sea
May sing of colors true,
But who has better right than we
To hoist a symbol hue?
For sailor men in battle fair
Since fighting days of old,
Have proved a sailor's right to wear
The Navy Blue and Gold.
BEAT ARMY!!

shocking
in an absolutely bizzare incident reminiscent of a quentin tarantino movie, notre dame coach brian kelly showed up at the USC team hotel at 3:00 a.m. pacific time and ordered at gunpoint Trojan Redshirt Quarterback Wittek up into a 50 foot scaffolding during strong winds and heavy rains........kelly incoherently shouted "Keep Filming...Keep Filming" as he was dragged away in handcuffs....the ghost of Beano Cook was later heard to say that he still likes Notre Dame chances at a national Title even if they are snubbed by the BCS.......really weird stuff on the left coast.

there's something fishy brewing
not really ...it's bloody obvious.......watch and listen to this isreal-gaza-hamas-palastine fiasco.......wanna know who the hero is going to be? it's very easy......EGYPT.......obama & co are going to fall all over themseleves praising EGYPT for saving the day .....and brokering peace....wanna know why ? same reason they covered up the Al-Queda attack in Libya.....same reason obama insists al-queda is decimated and no longer a threat.....because this molsem commander in chief is preparing to give EGYPT the gift of their blind cleric Sheik Omar as an olive branch and a thank you......yep, the man who orchestrated the first WTC attack and was the inspiration behind 9/11.......he will be released by obama and given back to EGYPT,,,,,,mark my words.

hmmmmmm
As former CIA Director David Petraeus revealed new discrepancies Friday in the administration's story over Libya, a dozen female House Democrats suggested Republicans' criticism of U.N. ambassador Susan Rice over her Libya comments is instead rooted in sexism and racism.
"It is a shame that anytime something goes wrong, they pick on women and minorities," Rep. Marcia Fudge, D-Ohio, the next chairwoman of the Congressional Black Caucus, told reporters Friday at a Capitol Hill news conference.
nope....that's a real quote....i didnt FUDGE the above statement from Marcia I.M Darkerthen Fudge....she really said that.....I.M. mildly surprised that drunk Diane Sawyer didnt open the evening news with this one.....although maybe she did...i didnt watch........but in an administration that is disproportionately filled with women and minority's....just whom should we assign blame ?
ah yes...i forgot....the answer is George Bush.

nyet
well folks....looks like the russians are here to collect.....good thing old barry is More flexible since the election...he's gonna have to Tap dance a russian jig for the next 4 years........good thing we dont need those bayonets and horses..........IT's OVER !!! its so fukin over......I wonder this story, Petraus affair and the Libya hearings were ignored until after the election.......i am kinda rooting for Iran to annihilate ISreal so all those dumb asses in Miami Beach can blame themselves for their own demise....he's a fukin moslem you self hating idiots....a fukin indonesian moslem.....wake up.
Hey, here's something new to fear. The U.S. Navy detected a Russian nuclear-powered attack sub roughly 275 miles from America's East Coast late last month. The Sierra-2 submarine was believed to be patrolling the deep Atlantic waters, which, according to CNN, is something that the Russian government has said they'd be doing. The sub was not close to any Navy submarine bases, and military officials aren't saying how they detected the vessel's presence. "Things worked the way they were supposed to," one official cryptically said. The Navy is reportedly tracking the sub, which it says is now heading back toward Europe (and also into our nightmares

the election
not sure if i can put into words my dissapointment with the election results, but i took down the flag on weds and i am not sure if I ever will fly it again, the nation i once felt pride in defending no longer exists, to paraphrase the words of Ron Burgundy..."Go fuck Yourself America"

Con Te Partiro
As Andrea Bocelli would say in his ginzo operatic voice.....It's time to say Goodbye......and Yes Sweater Sweater it's time to say goodbye to Brooklyn before the vermon infested iceladies arrive.
waiting on the president
so I am watching the sickening news about poor Autumn Pasquale , and they arrested these 2 animals that lured and killed her for f*king bicycle parts and I am thinking " They could be Obama's Sons".......remember how he interjected himself into the shooting of the drug upped truant teen in florida that was shot by the civilian security guard while looking for homes to rob............well barry , why the silence on this tragedy ? these two miscreants look a lot like you and michelle too.
but why ?
as this fiasco in libya continues to unravel, i am still getting stuck on one point....WHY ? why was the black haus so reluctant to classify the libyan massacre on the anniversay of the 9/11 attacks as a "terrorist" attack ? what was/is there motive in first insisting it was a crowd of rebel rouses that got out of hand, why 5 days after the fact did they send Susan Rice onto Meet the Press to further push the notion it was payback for an anti-islam movie and street protest gone out of bounds? This was Al Queda, and nobody, and i do mean nobody, would blame obama for al queda's existince, they were here before barry and will be here long after he leaves.......it's not like this was the new libyan govt that he supported attacking us, he would not have had egg on his face for the actions of an organized al queda attack ....so why ? it is not like the american public was under the assumption that there was an everlasting peace in the middle east after the sand nigga spring...so why? ....why so eager to brush this aside....call it less than optimal, a bump on the road.......the jewish vote? they could care less about our diplomats in libya....hell isreal is facing nuclear extinction at the hands of iran and the jews are still lining up in boca raton to reelect this jackass....so why?
it is obviously something Big.....for hillary to fall on her sword and commit political suicide it must be big.......its also obvious that if Susan Rice had gone on these shows so close to the election and spread this propoganda on her own....without the encouragement or insistence of the black haus....she would have been fired.....can you imagine a renegade voice in his administration rockin the boat against his will and causing a stir like this one caused......off with her head.....but Nope...she has been spared....she was obviously just doing her job.....but WHY ?
I am stumped......my main suspicion now is that barry knew that continued attacks and the obvious healthiness of al queda would prevent him from freeing Sheik Omar; the blind cleric behind the 1993 world trade center attacks, as an olive branch to egypt..........but would he risk it all to keep his plan alive? or is he so arrogant he really felt that the dumbass american public will ignore the facts and drink the cool aid?
somewhere in a cornfield of Illinois.. Carlton Fisk is waking up behind the wheel with an empty bottle of vodka...no doubt contemplating the same puzzling issues as me.

survey says........
my dog Graves was beeming with pride when she saw these results., although she vows to do her part to leapfrog gosts and become the biggest fear for spoony.....quite possible the greatest survey of the past 20 years.......this will have to be reprinted in the sweater nite letter.
Two magazines, Country Living (95.99% white readership) and Ebony /Jet (99.99% black readership) did surveys on "WHAT DO PEOPLE FEAR MOST?”
The results were interesting, to say the least...
Country Living magazine's top three answers were:
1. Nuclear war/terrorist attack in U.S
2. Child/spouse dying
3. Terminal illness
Ebony / Jet magazine's top three answers were:
1. Ghosts
2. Dogs
3. Registered mail
No Kidding - And these are the people who put Obama over the top.

just wonderin
i sure hope there weren't any EXECS from Chrysler / GM or the other automative Big 3 at the Tigers games this past week.....I sure hope they gave up their luxury suites for all the Detroit teams after accepting bailout funds from the Government......I seem to recall spponjiah wagging his finger back in 09 telling Wall Street they couldn't give out Bonuses because of the financial stimullus....i certainly recall the media mocking Bank of America for having the audacity to pay deferred compensation to their employees that year.....i geuss the automakers get a free pass....after all...the first thing they did with their bailout cash was to produce a 2 minutes superbowl commercial exclaiming the rebirth of Made in Detroit with Eminem as their spokesperson....maybe he worked for free.....
nice to see that Dou*bag sprinsgteen hasn't changed....he's back in ohio stumping for obama.....i hope everyone who went to any of his concerts or bought any of his CD's the past 4 years feels responsible.....YOU sent him a message that it's OK....his loyal fans will trott out there and buy his tix no matter what....
i , on the other hand....still send hate mail to Phil Lesh for politicizing organ donation at a concert 5 years ago....poor Jerry would be turning in his grave....if he had a grave.....if his daughter and Bob weir hadn't spread his ashes into the ghanges River in India.....pooor poooor Jerry...you deserved better.

the power of me
wow....this is one for the ages.......i hvae always known i have the incredible power to fortune into famine, how i can give the kiss of death to a sports franchise by rooting for them....how my teams seldom win championships ( see the long troubled history of the Mets & Rangers) and how the teams i hate anjoy riches( see Notre dame on a roll since i officially turned against them).....but even this one scares me.
sometime after the Yankees defeated the orioles on Friday night i sat at the bar at Ceasars AC , enjoying a cool refreshing glass of ale and pondering the baseball playoffs.......A1 on the agenda was the Nationals preserving a 6 run lead and eliminating the hated Cardinals ( check)......next up was the pending Yankee-Tigers series......i thought for a moment and declared to nobody in particular that my hatred for the Redwings was soooo great , that it extended to the Mich, Mich St, Motown music, the Lions and Yes the Tigers.......no self respecting hockey fan would have an interest in basketball, so the pistons are safe for the moment......and so by default I was rooting for the Yankees.
I cam out of the Jackson browne concert to witness the Cardinals rally back in the 9th inning to beat the Nationals.......as bad as this was, i reasoned that it was okay because the National Fans are also Capital Fans.....and Oriole Fans are Ravens fans.....so there was a silver lining.
now i have only rooted for the Yankees 3 times in this 16 year run of theirs......in 96 over the Braves for Metropolitans reasons and the Yanks won......i also rooted for them over the Diamondbacks after the 2001 attacks on our city ( Riviera blows saves in 9th inning to cost them world series) and 2004 over the redsox (yanks blow 3-0 series lead) .......powerful stuff this jinx of mine.
But Last night takes the case........not only did the Yanks loose game 1 ....but they lost their Captain to a broken ankle.......if Jeter only knew I was rooting for the Yanks he would have lifted himself for a pinch hitter in the 10th.
who's next ?

wild cards ?
couple of quick points.
Orioles....feel good story kinda......first post season appearence since 1997.......should bring back glorious memories of the 1970's....Plamer, Cuellar, Mcnally, Brooksie, Mark ABelanger and all.....the brilliant October Sun reflcecting off those white jersey and the Orange trim ?????
yeah right........Nightime in Texas and the birds wore BLACK Jerseys......sad.
Now......the play of the day......Infield fly rule ?? tuff call.....shortstop never came to a complete stop....hard to say he was camped under the ball....he also had his back to the infield.....if he intended to drop it on purpose to get the double play it wouldn;t have worked in 200 tries..
BUT the real story was the classless Atlanta Fans throwing garbage on the field for 20 minutes...and those empty cans werent thrown from the cheap seats upstairs....nope , that was teddy Turner fellow yachstman in the field level seats.
BUT BUT BUT ....the best story of the day was LARRY Jones going 1 for 5 and critical throwing error.....nice to see that scumbag go out in shame.....go fuk yourself chipper.

old Jacks lowell
the hard, cold, oft sad red brick factory walls of the textile mills that Jack described in saturating detail remain, but what lies behind those walls is a scene that would make Te~ Jean himself smile with pride. A vibrant cloister of bars,pubs,taverns and meat Meccas.......an influx of youthful college kids from Umass Lowell brings this "Venice of America" to life. A quiet walk along the canals hearkens back to old Emil in his sidecar crossing and recrossing the Merrimack with Manuel... to the bemusement of onlookers....not much, except everything...has changed........Jacks' presence is nowhere and everywhere at the same time....perhaps Gerard still haunts these plains ...in the most gentile way a ghost can haunt.......the long shadows that come on a dying september sunday afternoon demand a remembrance of the sorrow and angst of a surf like factory worker....the Shrine of Joseph, the congregation is seated.....Saint Lucy stares from her throne....ole Lowell...one step forward , two steps back.....she truly never forgets.
