Lap 6 Denny Hamlin led The Fall of Mankind from the pole position. As it happened…I was late for the start of the Brickyard 400 and thus was also left out of the start of the precipitous Fall of Mankind…so the engines started and Denny Hamlin led the charge without me. Which I suppose…
Railway Park, Rochelle IL, 7/13/12, 5:42PM CDT In the little train stations in my mind, a few things seem remarkably better than I can recall them being of late, but there are still good reasons for me remain silent, and still, and hope no one comes around to give those stations a new roof or…
WARNING: This Blog Kills Fascists!! Instead of writing words to the effect of: There’s a better world a’coming…but I surely don’ know when. I don’t know if it’s been just the weather, or the emotional weather, the economy, or just the beat down broken spell of time that has been clutching my heart. But I…
Matt Kenseth Leaves Roush Racing; The New False 17??; Spain Will Park The Bus Again…BELIEVE IT!! NASCAR, along with all it’s fans, was turned on it’s ear this past week with the announcement that Matt Kenseth was leaving Roush Racing, where’s he’s been for all intents and purposes all his adult life, at the end…
Spain Parks The Bus Yes. I will sell you a tallboy of PABST for $1.50, if you’re polite, and can tell me what you like about America. That’s fair, yes? It could be any number of things from Guns to NASCAR, parodies or paradigms. Your call. Tell me what you really feel. But remember, ONLY…
Netherlands 0 Denmark 1 If I could, I would write a million words about the turmoil of the past two weeks. But there is never enough time or words. Never enough pictures. The Milwaukee Brewers, after a 4 game sweep on the road of the LA Dodgers, the best team in baseball, lost…
Bayern München 1 Chelsea 1 (3-4 pens) I did not get to see my beloved Chelsea win the Champions League for the first time in their storied 105 years of existence this past Saturday as I was in attendance at my niece’s wedding up in Appleton, Wisconsin. I monitored the match on…
It’s Talladega 2012, Baby!! And there will be no more of THIS!! Tomorrow is the day we’ve been waiting for!! The first Talladega race of 2012. With the changes NASCAR made that were tried and shown to be true at Daytona, there should be far less of the not so vaguely homo-erotic tandem drafting, and…
In a few minutes from now, the Chelsea/QPR tilt will NOT begin with pre-match Fair Play handshakes Once again, and for the final time this season, the rift, and the allegedly racism row between Chelsea captain John Terry, and Queens Park Rangers defender Anton Ferdinand reared it’s grim and ugly little head. The match will…
Here hills and vales, the woodland and the plain, Here earth and water seem to strive again. Not chaos-like together crushed and bruised, But, as the world, harmoniously confused. As I’ve alluded to in a few previous posts, albeit in passing, the F1 season so far has not been at all as one might have…
Aston Villa 2 Chelsea 4 I’ve uncovered a snappy way for me to win a FREE drink…..but before we get into that free drink deal, what I’ve been saying all along is turning out to be true. Fernando Torres is Chelsea’s MVP. NO question about that. His presence on the pitch creates…
Chelsea 0 Tottenham 0 I was up this morning a LOT earlier than THESE lads were to watch this here in Mount Horeb, Wisconsin…Troll Capitol of the World. I settled into my recliner with a cup of coffee close at hand…and was soon lulled off into a nap…an extra 2 hours…
Athletic Bilbao 2 Manchester United 1 (5-3 Agg) Manchester City 3 Sporting CP 2 (3-3 Agg) Chelsea 4 Napoli 1 (5-4 Agg) March Madness indeed. The weather, for one….80 focking degrees in mid-March in Wisconsin?? The NCAA tournament with 2 upsets that no one saw coming….Norfolk State and Lehigh toppled Duke and Mizzou….quite a few…
Jeremy Mayfield watches the 2012 Daytona 500 from JAIL You remember those Dodge commercials Jeremy Mayfield was in back in 2002 where the girl puts car wax in her hair and daubs on gasoline like it was fine perfume? “Hey Jeremy,” she says as she hops into Jeremy’s #19 Dodge Dealers Dodge. And Jeremy asks,…
