In hindsight

This is what I didn't say, didn't know, or happened subsequent to my most recent posts. 

This is a lazy way to blog.

1.  Posting an e-mail chain is also a lazy way to blog.

2.  MLB playoff picks were pretty spot-off (link).  I liked the SF Giants / Texas Rangers World Series.  I'm happy for both teams.  SF played well just to get in the playoffs and their pitching was phenomenal.  Texas beat the Yankees, who had high priced former Rangers, Mark Teixeira and F***Rod, so that's always a good thing.

3.  Brian Wilson is an absolute riot.  Search some of his antics and you will laugh.  He was on Leno last night.  See clip below.

4.  I am working on a poker post, playing big pocket pairs, AA, KK, QQ.  Not happy with it yet and haven't had time to edit.

5.  East Bound and Down, Season 2 ends Sunday.  I have a different Weekend Watching post. 

6.  I wish I spent this NFL season in Vegas.  I would have made some serious money on NFL picks.  That is what I have aways been best at picking.  Not bad at college basketball.  Do not use my college football or other picks for anything that involves money.  Or try the George Costanza "Opposite Theory".  Can't embed like I want, so here is link:

George : Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice that you were looking in my direction.

Victoria : Oh, yes I was, you just ordered the same exact lunch as me.

( G takes a deep breath )

George : My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents.

Victoria : I'm Victoria. Hi.

7.  Blake Griffin is averaging 17 pts. 10 reb. per game, but the Clippers are still the Clippers.  They won their last game to move to 1-4.

8.  John Wall has also had a nice start to his career.  The Washington Buzzards are still the Washington Buzzards.

9.  I voted at around 1:00pm and there were three other voters in the gymnasium of my local church.  I was voter # 296 for the day.  I'm lucky to be in and out in minutes.  Went with my girlfriend and her family at 7:00pm.  It took about a half-hour, so there was a lot of interest in these mid-term elections.

10.  I have political viewpoints, but I don't want this blog to be about politics and religion, so I will try to keep those views to myself.  It's not that I don't want to offend - I couldn't care less about that.  It's just I'd rather not write about those topics.

11.  I am still waiting to try the In-N-Out Burger recipe at home.

12.  A team doesn't get better on the field by trading or waiving Randy Moss.  But sometimes talent is overshadowed by the player being a petulant turd.  If that is the case, then, by all means, get rid of the guy.
