Just wish EVERY Dem would refer to him as "President Vagina Neck". It would destroy him. You know, if the tables were turned, that's what MAGA would do.

A few questions about ANTIFA:
Who's in charge of it?
Why haven't they recruited me?
Where can I buy their T-Shirt?

How the Ryder cup was a metaphor for America in 2025
-Prices thru the roof
-Fans were boorish
-The rest of the world was rooting against us.
-We did well individually, got our asses kicked in team play

RE: Stallone
For a very brief time, 30+ years ago, Ron Reagan Jr. had a weekly show where one segment was "Heroes and Zeroes of the Week".
Once, Stallone was the Zero. Forget what he did but I remember this because that week, I was the Hero
Tainted my 7 1/2 minutes of fame.
Fuck Sylvester Stallone

RE Kiss. One of the saddest things I've ever seen on TV. The great Henry Rollins had a show, half talk, half music. Like most punk rockers, Henry was enamored with Kiss and had Gene Simmons on to chat. All Henry's idol wanted to talk about was $$.
Henry was crestfallen

What else do Trump, Musk, Sarah Palin and Sydney Sweeney have in common? They have all hosted SNL. Canadians should consider Lorne Michaels their enemy of the state.

One more thread to follow in the Epstein saga. Guess who was in charge of the "prestigious" Dalton School when Epstein, without a college degree, was hired to teach there. It was Bill Barr's father.

An NBA observation. What do Curry, LeBron, KD, AD, Embid, Jrue , Tatum and Haliburton have in common?
All played on the 2024 Olympic team and either missed considerable time or had their season end due to injuries.
TOO MUCH HOOPS?
Can't be coincidence.

I know injuries occur in all sports, BUT....will someone please make the connection between NBA stars playing in the Olympics and then being injured the following season. ONE HALF of our men's team lost playing time this year. Steph and Tatum being the latest.

As one of the first 10 or so employees of Ticketmaster (way before they turned into the Evil Empire), it's hard to express how much this saddens and sickens me. www.ticketnews.com/2025/04/live...

He rose from his grave on Easter Sunday,
Saw his shadow so it's 6 weeks til the NBA finals.

Rarely watch golf on tv BUT there was more excitement and emotion at the end of the Masters today than there was in the last 5 Super Bowls and World Series combined.

A shout-out for Junior Bridgeman. Going from being included in the trade that brought Kareem to LA to having, possibly, the greatest post-playing career of any pro athlete ever. RIP Mr. Bridgeman.
