Monday Moaning

Some one needs to do some cleaning around here! Why not her!?!

So I haven't written shit this past week...I have lacked any and all motivation...There has been plenty to write about...Football Free-Agency/Trade Madness...The MLB trading deadline deals...And of course, a topic I spent plenty of time watching...Those ass-hat, fuck-stain, bastards in DC...No, not the Redskins or Nationals, or Capitals...The Republicans, and the Democrats, and the Tea-party fuck-ups...Shit if I start there, I'll lose it...I'll close with those cunts...

MLB Trade Deadline...That's where we'll start...I'm not going to get into all the Bullshit...But I'm gonna get into the Indians...

First they trade some scrap for Kosuke Fukudome...An overrated, weak hitting outfielder...Okay they needed some one who could hit in the outfield, but they really need a power-hitting rightly...Then I was pissed when the Phillies landed Hunter Pence for a couple single-A players and 2 players to be named...Now those single-A guys are suppose to be top prospects...But fuck it, they are 2-3 years away from the majors...And prospects are just prospects...No guarantees in Baseball!

But the Tribe made a BIG splash Saturday night when they out-bid everyone for Rockies pitcher, Ubaldo Jimenez...The Indians did what they always say they won't do...They traded their top two pitching prospects...There are a lot of Indians fans who aren't happy about this...These are the same fuckers who say the Indians are always too cheap to make a big move...Shut the fuck up, they just did!

The Indians have fooled everyone for years that they are masters of young talent...But so many of these prospects never pan out, or they leave just as they are hitting their stride...Fuck it, sell them while they're hot! Look at Grady Sizemore...Bitch can't stay healthy and when he does play, he strikes out religiously...Stop crying about Double-A pitchers being traded, and be happy the Indians just landed a head-case, Ace...Yes, Jimenez told the Tribe he won't be able to pitch in Boston this week...He is emotionally beat up...Shit, he just didn't want to get beat up in Fenway by the Sox...

The Indians made another trade, that really bothered me...They traded Orlando Cabrerra to the Gianst for an outfield prospect...O. Cabrerra was the veteran this team needed...He kept people loose, and taught them as well...He is the guy that worked with Asdrubal Cabrerra and his swing, which has lead to a major upgrade in power...Oh, am I the only guy that noticed that no matter what team Orlando Cabrera is on, it always makes it to the post season...The guy has needed experience...

I was also happy for Pirates fans, who saw their team make moves to get Derek Lee and Ryan Ludwick...Those are a couple of bats that could really help the Pirates...I wish the Tribe could have landed one of those right-handed bats...

The NFL...Screw it...Players are going everywhere...Philly got Mental-case, Vince Young, so when Vick gets hurt, they're fucked...I don't care how many great corners you have93)...Those bitches can't throw!

Seattle is stocked up on backup QB's...W

ith Kevin Kolb going to Arizona, now we'll see if he's any good, or just another overrated twat!

Chad Johnson is finally going to be a winner, luckily landing in New England for a couple of late round picks...They also got Fat Albert Haynesworth for a 5th rounder...Dude is a fucking asshole, retard, dick-head, but not a bad risk...He he can't play for Bill and company, he'll be done in the NFL...

Now, for the fuck-stains in DC...Something has been made very clear over the some time now...This is no longer a "Government of the people, by the people, and for the people"...It is a Government of the corporations, by the corporations, for the corporations...I proved it to you right HERE...

This was backed up even more by this whole debt ceiling debate, and people's refusal to close loop-holes for huge companies, that pay little to no taxes, and get all kinds of tax-payers money in refunds...Cuts are great, but revenue is needed...And based on every poll I've seen a lot of people get that, but DC doesn't care about the people they are suppose to represent...

Another part of the problem, is certain Tea Party supporters and Republicans...Probably some Dems too...They believe in "The American Dream"...But their belief is different then many...To most people that means having a better life then your parents, and providing a better life for your kids, then you had...To these dopes, it's to become Millionaires...They think everyone, especially themselves, will one day, have millions fall in their lap...So they don't want to see taxes go up on the richest 2% or on huge profit making companies, because damn it, one day that will be them...

Hey, fucking idiot, NO IT WON'T!

There is nothing wrong with being Middle Class...If everyone sat at a desk playing Angry Birds, and collecting pay checks, nothing would get done and we'd all be out of work real soon...Those rich people you help get rich, and defend, and aspire to be....They don't give a fuck about you!

Over the last few weeks, I have lost any and all faith in every elected official in this country...What to do...I'm not sure, but I found THIS_SITE and I really like the idea...I don't know if it will work, but it would be nice if our voices were actually heard for once.

There's a Wolf Outside our Doors, and it's name is Our Government...

Well, thank God for Kate Upton...She can always put a smile on my face...


That's a good thing, because I haven't smiled much this past weekend...

In case you missed my Saturday night POST, shit like this junkie bitch, sharing the headlines with the Massacre that took place in Norway, makes me hate this world...

With all that has been going on in the world, and some things in my own little world, I've been having a hard time getting motivated to write my normal Monday (mostly) Sports blog...

Honestly, there has been non-stop talk about the NFL Players and Owners possibly reaching a new CBA deal...There has been some players bitching, and the owners may be trying to make them look bad, and force them into a crap deal...Guess what? I don't give shit! I'd almost be happy to see them all shit the bed, and completely piss off their fan base...Maybe they'd learn a lesson, but I doubt it...

I had planned earlier in the week to write about some possible MLB trades, like will the Indians or Pirates be willing actually make deals that would help them stay in contention? But I really don't care at this point...

There is another thing that happened in sports that has me salty...The rumors swirling around are saying that Ohio State isn't going to get hammered by the NCAA...If this is true, then the NCAA is completely full of shit! If it was a smaller program, they would have crushed them...Just by getting rid of Tressel and forfeiting the 2010 doesn't make it all better...Ohio State still keeps the money they made, including the money from the Sugar Bowl...

Plus with Tressels history of cheating and rules violations, and the fact that it's been proven that his bullshit at Ohio State has been going on since 2002, the University has to be held somewhat accountable...And the rest of the programs need to be put on notice, that no one is untouchable...What a bunch of horse shit!

Greed makes the world go around...Money and power are in bed together, and they are making evil little babies!

I mentioned things in my own little world that were bothering me as well...The biggest thing is my Uncle is seriously sick, and they aren't sure why yet...He, along with my parents and their two totally different tastes in music, was the biggest influence on me falling in love with music...It was him, before anyone else, that made me want to play guitar...So I leave this week's post by listening to him...

Time For Another Reality Check People

In Case you missed it, over in Africa, where genocide seems to be the national sport, and much of the world turns a blind eye to it, there are countless Somali children dying every day...Adults as well...Fleeing being raped and killed, they travel through a drought, starving, with no water, to refuge camps...If they get there, there is still little hope that they'll live...Why so little hope? Because what little aid is being sent to help them, has to somehow get past the same warlords that are trying to kill these people...14 aid workers have been murdered already...

Why am I bringing this up on a Saturday night? Because no one else is! Instead the lead story on every news outlet is that stupid, one hit wonder, junkie, skank, overrated, singer, Amy Winehouse...These dirty, smack-head, hatchet wound was found dead Saturday...And for some reason people are shocked...And the real news...The important news, is pushed to the side, so people can acted shocked that a junkie died...This gash was more famous for being fucked up, then she was for singing...

How fucked up are we?

The early morning news was covering what should have been covered...The bombing, and then later Massacre in Norway...My wife and I were following this closely...A good portion of her heritage is Norwegian...Should couldn't understand something like this happening there...And when the death toll jumped to 92 people we were horrified...85 of those were shot and killed at a teen camp on Utoya Island, 20 miles from the Oslo bombing...

It was the deadliest day in Norway since World War Two...


I watched this nut-job's YouTube Manifesto...And yes, he's proud of what he's done...I'm not linking it, or using his name...He'll get no PR here...

But wait, Amy Winehouse died...Put everyone on her death instead!

It's really sad what has become important news...It seems more like lazy news...

Then of course our elected officials here in the U.S. can't reach an agreement about raising the debt ceiling, and making progress in trimming down the deficit...From everything I have read, The President leaned more to the right, or at least the middle then he did to his own party...Even if he gives into what Republicans want, they jump up and down and scream no...One thing he wanted to do was involved not raising taxes but bringing in revenue by closing loopholes...Where have I heard that before? OH_YEAH!

The financial world is waiting for the U.S. to not fuck up economy, and these dolts are playing politics, and showing they don't give a shit about what the people want, and need...They're just playing their games and sticking it to us...

This too got little coverage, because Amy Winehouse died, and the world nearly stopped...

Many people would say God Help Us at this point...But I don't think he can.

Yeah, this is about all the Soccer coverage you're gonna get from me...


I'm not going to act like one of those bandwagon, douchebag fans...I never liked Soccer...I never watch it...I don't care about it, and I'm not going to start now...

Yet America was filled with Soccer fans today...At least a lot of people acting like they were Soccer fans...And then the newly converted Soccer fans, because the U.S. Women's team was playing in the championship game...WHAT!?! This wasn't even men's Soccer? WTF people!?! Oh, I can smell the angry ladies now, as I belittle female sports...Let's be honest people...Women's sports have a hard time drawing to begin with...Mix that with Soccer, which has a hard time drawing in the U.S. and you have something on your TV to help put you to sleep!

By the way, the U.S. lost on penalty kicks or whatever...Suddenly Americans get why people were saying how it sucks to decide a game on penalty kicks...

And I have to go after a couple dolts on Twitter...Yes there were constant Twitter updates from these newly found Soccer fans...But there were a couple who went after President Obama for not being at the game...Now I've written things against him, and in favor of him, but this shit is just retarded...I think he some more important shit to worry about, then a Soccer game...You know, like trying to get Democrats and Republicans to work out some kind of deal that will stop the world from falling into an economic shit storm...And the troops that are still fighting overseas...And countless other things...

Oh, and don't forget the media and bloggers like me who would be up his ass if he was wasting his time at a stupid fucking Soccer game, instead of trying to do his job...

And before you ask, I didn't watch the fucking Golf either! That would have sent me to nap time as well...

In Football news, Cedric Benson has been arrested again...This is his 4th bit of legal trouble in 3 years...He is also the third member of the Bengals to get arrested in the last couple weeks...Yeah, Pac-Man Jones got busted too...The NFL should just suspend that whole fucking team right now!

Now to pimp the other shit I posted this past week...Friday I posted my HEISMAN_PREVIEW ...

Wednesday I shared a brief potion of the BOOK I've been working on...No White Asparagus in this!

Now to the Little Beeze...Tee-Ball season has gone well, and surprisingly it is almost over already...I wish the season was a couple weeks longer...I'm really seeing the improvement, and would love to let these kids get some more hacks...My boy has been excellent in the field...He's got one of the three best arms on the team...His hitting was good last year, and it's gotten better each week...


The boy has been crazy about that damn Angry Birds game for the last year...The constant updates keeps it exciting for him...He's also a good little Artist...Great at drawing, and then Saturday, While I was working my double at the Fish House, the Mrs. texted me this picture...



Kids got it down pretty good...Sunday I asked him if he could make anymore with Play-Doh...He proceeded to make another red bird...3 blue birds, and two yellow birds...If Baseball doesn't pan out, maybe his art skills will take him somewhere!

He also found this video on his iPod, and loved it...He asked if I would put it in the blog, and I said what the hell...



I know, it's no Kate Upton video, but don't worry, I post some more smut for you pervs soon!

The Beeze's Heisman Preview

No B-Dub, I'm not picking your guy to win the Heisman! But the kid was a beast last year...South Carolina's Marcus Lattimore has to get mentioned after rushing for 1,197 yards and 17 touchdowns as a true Freshman last year...The 'Cocks may have to put a bigger load on him this year, unless they can get a QB that can keep his head out of his ass...

Coming out of last season, and heading into this year, Oregon Runningback LaMichael James had to be on the top of everyone's list...

James led the country in rushing with 1,731 yards...The Ducks' Offense has 7 returning starters, three of those on the Offensive line...But a NCAA investigation has been hanging over the program throughout the off-season...James and the entire program may be heading for some sanctions...


Stanford QB, Andrew Luck would have been my guy this year, after passing for 3,338 yards...32 touchdowns...And only 8 interceptions in his Sophomore season...But he lost his head coach, Jim Harbaugh to the San Fransisco 49ers...I have a feeling that Luck may regress slightly this season, but he'll be back next year...

The QB to watch out for...Oklahoma State's Brandon Weeden...


Weeden passed for 4,277 yards last year, and connected for 34 touchdowns...Weeden also has his top receiver, Justin Blackmon, back with him...These two can be a deadly combination...Blackmon had 20 TD receptions last season, and 1,782 yards...

One of the guys I was rooting for last year was Boise State's Kellen Moore...


Moore has put up huge numbers in his time at Boise State, and I think he'll do well again this year, but not Heisman well...Moore lost his top two receivers, and his Offensive Coordinator...

My favorite...The guy I'd love to see win it...

Baylor QB, Robert Griffin...Last year Griffin came back from a major knee injury and proved his doubters wrong by passing for 3,501 yards and 22 touchdowns...

And being the dual-threat that he is, he also rushed for 635 yards, and 8 touchdowns...But the big problem for Griffin is that he plays at Baylor...The Bears need to make some serious noise in the Big-12 if their QB is going to get any national attention...

Of course, all that were mentioned were QB's and RB's...Defense rarely gets any Heisman love...I would be thrilled to see a Manti Te'o (LB, Notre Dame) or a Jared Crick (DT, Nebraska) get some attention, but we all know that won't happen...We'll see...

The All Powerful All Knowing Babies

I've been working on a book for awhile now, and this post is a brief chapter from that book...

For some time now I've had a theory about babies...But I feel that just now, with my third child, that one up there, that my theory is correct...With my oldest, when she was a baby, I was working 70 hours a week...I didn't have nearly as much time with her as I would have liked...Then with my son, I got more time with him...

Thanks to some health issues, I was up with him every night...Mrs. Beeze is evil without sleep, and I can get by with little...So, the only way he would sleep comfortably was in my arms, some what propped up on the couch...Laying on his back in his crib lead to serious reflux, and awful gas pain...So for about a year, we hung out on the couch, while his gastrointestinal system matured and worked through it all...

So I got to watch him closely, and began to think about this theory again...And now my youngest, who I spend a lot of time with...I get up with her in the night...Again, the Mrs. needs her sleep, and I need her to get it...And I'm not working as much, and I play a bigger Mr. Mom role these days...

So after all this build up, here it is...Babies are all knowing creatures...That's right...When we are born, we know everything...As we get older, we become less intelligent...Almost as if we are reset, and have to start over...Let's take a look at this...

The life of a baby is golden...They eat, sleep, piss, and shit...By eat, I mean they are fed, first by breast/bottle, then spoon fed...Then cleaned up...They're allowed, and encouraged to sleep as long and as much as they want...That sounds GREAT! They don't have to worry about getting to the shitter...they just drop there waste in diapers and then they are cleaned up with those wonderful wipes...They do no leg work...No heavy lifting...They get carried here and there, rolled around in their personal chariots...They are treated like Gods, and if they cry...The world stops for them...Whatever it takes to make them happy...

Babies are the ultimate puppet master...Proof of that...Watch a baby use their hands...They're Ambidextrous! All babies are switch-hitters...Now I'm trying to get the 6 year old little Beeze try and swing lefty, and it's a bitch!

When does it all slip away...Because they do become dumber...They lose their powers...It has to begin when they start talking...Why do you think parents get so excited about those first words!??! The talking takes off, and soon they start doing dumb shit that pisses you off...Like coloring on the walls, or trying to write their name on your Eddie Van Halen Peavey Wolfgang Guitar...

Like I said, there is a point when the reset button his hit and it's all over for them...Everything goes black...Think about it...When is your first memory from...Most people can get back to 4, maybe 3 years old, and that fades with ages...Then we have top learn everything...And many still end up stupid...They won't even get close to the genius that they held when they were an infant...

It's so very sad...We start out our lives in diapers having some one clean up our shit, and saying how cute we are...And many of us will end our lives in diapers having some one cleaning up our shit, and being disgusted by us...

Love those babies while you can, because one day they're gonna be a pain in the ass!

Kate F*cking Upton!

I don't give a shit that she's wearing a Yankees hat! You know a chick is hot when she's out there in a baseball jersey, making Erin Andrews look like a slouch!


I hate the MLB All-Star game...I think the whole thing is garbage, and the only thing that would make this game tonight really exciting for me, would be if Tim McCarver dropped dead right on the air...

The Home Run Derby is the big show for these few days in July, but to me it's lost it's luster...It's just glorified batting practice...And of course ESPN has it slotted for a certain time, and it always runs over by two hours...

Then they show the celebrity softball game...Some retired players...Some actors and maybe mix in a hottie...Thank God for the hottie...



Ohhh, the Hottie!










Getting Kate Upton there was the best thing to happen at the All-Star festivities!

Monday Moaning

I noticed Women's Golf was on a couple times this weekend...Both times it was on channels and times that it was scheduled to be there...I really hate having things forced on me...Although, if this was the required attire for women's golf, and they all looked that good, the ratings would go through the roof...

Now, the whole Ohio State/Jim Tressel thing has gotten tired, or at least I thought so...Yet there are still people who are loyal to the cheating bastard...And they all say all coaches at major programs are cheating...REALLY? Prove it! It's the weakest argument out there...It's easy as hell to say, but sure seems hard to prove based on the number of major programs, and the very few coaches that have been killed for cheating...

So this past week, Ohio State came out and said that Tressel's resignation, was forced...WHAT A SHOCKER DOUCHEBAGS! I guess the rumblings inspired my not-so-favorite Cleveland Sports blogger...Poor gal has been relegated to posting at a Canadian site...Here is her latest POST...I hope they can handle the traffic they're going to get!

As so many of her posts do, this one is simply a copy and paste of Tressel's resume...Shady shit not included...She likes to act if this whole tattoos for memorabilia thing was a one-time slip-up...Except it's been proven that this stuff has been going on since 2002...Plus there is the 28 known players who were getting cars...There was Tressel lying about knowing about this...Lying about getting a warning that the FEDS were looking into a drug ring at the tattoo shop, and that players may be involved...

Oh, and she blows past the illegal shit Tressel did at Youngstown State...After he left, that program fell apart...Not because their great coach was gone, but because the sanctions that were thrown down on the program, because the great coach was getting his players set up with cars and jobs that they didn't need to show up for...Multiple former players in jail...Countless ex-players talked about Tressel and what he knew, and did for them, but the loyalist just say it's sour grapes...That argument could work, if it was one or two...But it's been a lot more than that...

It's time for a reality check JDIN! Take of the Scarlet colored glasses, and understand not everything is shades of Grey...Some shit is black and white, and right and wrong...Don't you get tired of being wrong!?!

On a more positive note with Ohio State...Former Buckeye LB, Mike Vrabel has decided to retire from the NFL, and is going to become the new Linebacker's coach at his Alma Mater...Ohio State is hoping that the addition of Vrabel can get their recruiting back up to speed, since it's been bogged down since this Tressel mess...I'm not a Buckeye fan, but I've always liked Vrabel...I hope he does well, and finds a great career in coaching...

Earlier I talked about people needing a reality check...Well in case you missed my stuff last week, it was full of reality checks...A bit for media and everyone following the Casey_Anthony trial...

I also got on the death of the Space Program, and AMERICAN_EXCEPTIONALISM...

And then I took on the DEFICIT, and announced my run for the White House...

Now a bit of History before we end...Sunday was NIKOLA_TESLA'S 155 birthday...The man was a genius, who never gets the credit he deserves...Here's the band Tesla rocking out their anthem for him, in their classic homo-erotic video...

What a Dirty Bitch

What? Too Soon? Well, I've never been one to shy away from that...

Listen, I barely paid any attention to this whole Casey Anthony trial...The main reason being Nancy Grace...If that gash is beating on a story for 4 solid months, I'm pretty sure it's gonna piss me off...Why? 1. Nancy Grace could drive a nun to calling a kid, a no-good, cock-sucking, fuck-stain, piece of shit...2. The little I heard about Casey Anthony, made it clear that she was just as hateable as Nancy Grace...And she sounded pretty guilty...

Why would I want to spend time in a trial of a murderous, cunt of a mother, with a couple of whack-job parents who helped hide what happened to this little girl...Girl isn't reported missing for 31 days...No, Nothing shady there! What the fuck!?! After hearing some of the tapes of her on the phone from jail, talking to her idiot parents, it became clear to me that she was guilty, and her along with her idiot parents should all be removed from this Earth...These fuckers should not be allowed to breathe the same air as me!

So I didn't need Nancy Grace's non-stop coverage...Or that of most major news outlets...What happened to that little girl is awful...But the media has become really fucking lazy...They find one horrible story, and ride as long as they can...But it's time to wake up people...Kids are dying daily in this country...And I'm not just talking about dying from diseases...

The U.S. averages 4,000 deaths of children from gun violence a year...Why doesn't the media cover that as much as they covered this dirty twat...Let's be honest, the story became less about the poor, dead, little girl, and more about the skank mom and her fucked up family...The news media is a joke!

My bet, within a year, Casey Anthony will be dead, (OD, Murder, Suicide, Mystery) and Nancy Grace will have a new story to harp on relentlessly.

Fixing the Deficit Isn't as Hard as They Say

I'm not bullshitting you...Try and look at it the way you look at running your household...What happens when your bills become more than what you bring in? You stop buying a $4 coffee on the way to work...You don't order out as much...No fancy dinners for awhile...You cut the non-essential stuff...What else do you do? You try to bring in more money...Pickup a couple extra shifts...One of you goes from part-time to full-time...You do what you have to do...

Sadly our politicians don't want to do any work...They all keep talking about cuts...Cuts are fine...But none of them talk about bringing in any more revenue...They're all afraid to raise taxes on us, and for some reason they think that is the only revenue stream...But there is another way...Start taxing BIG BUSINESS more...Or some of them, start taxing! Stop giving them their unneeded rebates...They help the government has given them hasn't produced more jobs...It's done nothing to help the economy...

Look at how easy 10 of America's companies have it...Then think about how hard it is for you to get by...

10. Carnival Cruise Lines over the past five years made more than $11 billion in profits, but its federal income tax rate during those years was just 1.1 percent...

9. Conoco Phillips, which is the fifth largest oil company in the United States, made $16 billion in profits from 2007 through 2009, but received $451 million in tax breaks...

8. Citigroup last year made more than $4 billion in profits but paid no federal income taxes...

7. Goldman Sachs in 2008 only paid 1.1 percent of its income in taxes even though it earned a profit of $2.3 billion...

6. Valero Energy, the 25th largest company in America with $68 billion in sales last year received a $157 million tax refund check from the IRS...

5. Boeing got a $124 million refund from the IRS last year...

4. Chevron received a $19 million refund from the IRS last year, after it made $10 billion in profits in 2009.

3. General Electric made $26 billion in profits over the last five years and not only paid no federal income tax, it got a $4.1 billion refund.

2. Bank of America got a $1.9 billion tax refund from the IRS last year, though it made $4.4 billion in profits.

1. Exxon Mobil made $19 billion in profits in 2009 and paid no federal income taxes, and receive a $156 million rebate from the IRS.

Pretty fuck up!

Maybe we stop throwing money at these businesses, that don't need it...Make them pay at least a fair amount of taxes, and I bet we can make a huge dent in that deficit...

Consider this my official announcement...I'm running for President, and I'll straighten some shit out!

American Exceptionalism is Dying

This week, on Friday, the Final NASA Space Shuttle Mission will launch...Yes, it the end of an era...The Space Shuttle Program ha been scrapped...NASA had been working on the rockets to replace the Space Shuttles, but the President killed the budget for NASA...

President Obama has always talked creating jobs, and how research and development is the area we need to excel...He talked about creating jobs when he came to Cleveland...Well thanks to cutting NASA's budget, there have been more jobs lost in Cleveland/Ohio...One of the rockets that was scrapped, was being designed at the NASA Lewis Glenn Research Center...Great move!

Research and Development he said...NASA has been at the forefront of research and development...So much of the technology we have today is because of NASA...We have microwaves because of NASA...Thanks to NASA's R & D we have phones the size of infants' hands, that have more power, memory, and capabilities, then were ever imagined when the first computer was built...It was the size of a house...

NASA was a major reason for American Exceptionalism...President Obama has spoken of it repeatedly...Many people have said that he is a perfect example of American Exceptionalism...No! NASA was...There is nothing exceptional about taking away their funding, killing more jobs, and killing the county's leader in R & D...

Now I voted for the President, and this is one of the things he's done, that has disappointed me...I just blame him...No one in DC has fought for NASA...They all keep talking about making cuts, but they aren't willing take any cuts to their benefits, or to their staff, or to their salary...Cut, cut, cut, as long as it doesn't affect their comfy life...They've all been running on jobs, then they turn around and cut police, fire, and teacher's jobs left an right...

Don't fund R & D leader NASA, but bailout the banks twice...(Once under Bush, once under Obama)...Bailout big Auto...Tax cuts for Big Oil...Tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% but screw the middle class...I had "HOPE" that there could possibly be some real "CHANGE" but clearly there is no changing politics...

And I can't say I won't vote for President Obama again, because right now, there are a bunch of fuck-tards running, who let any nonsense that pops into their head, spill out of their mouths, no matter how stupid it is...Mitt Romney isn't totally awful, except for back-pedaling from everything he did as Governor of Massachusetts, and being a Mormon....That's really dumb....

It's clear that are leaders, and those who want to lead, are lacking American Exceptionalism...If our leaders are lacking it, then it's that much harder for the everyman to reach it...Where is our future heading?

Happy 4th of July all! Don't go blowing off any fingers okay!

Now, I'll be honest with you right from jump...I just got back from a short vacation Sunday evening...So I didn't keep up on sports a whole lot...Saturday I did check up on all the NHL free agent action...My New York Rangers Signed grinder Mike Rupp...Nice pick-up...Then they went big money time...They signed Brad Richards "The Star" of this free-agency season...Nice right? I don't know...9 years seems really long for a guy with some years on him...9 years and $60 million...Rangers GM Glen Sather who has a habit of over-spending says Richards left money on the table to come to the Rangers...

As for the Philadelphia Flyers, they signed old man Jaromir Jagr, after trading Jeff Carter, and Mike Richards last week...They also lost Ville Leino to free agency...I think the Flyers may be going backwards...GOOD!

Also breaking Sunday night, the San Jose Sharks traded Dany Heatley to Minnesota for Martin Havlat...This is the second big trade between these two teams in two weeks now...

Now lets get to the vacation....This is how it began, with a car ride to Erie, PA...



There we got together with the Wife's sister, and her family...A bunch of cousins, uncles, aunts, second cousins...We all stayed at the same Hotel...The Bell-Aire (A Clarion Hotel)...You would think with the name it would be nice...NOPE! Old, dated, dark, dingy, and stupid...I reserved a suite and got a shitty dorm room...All of us had problems with our rooms, and $600 for 3 nights in this place is just retarded...

We went to a little amusement park there called, Waldameer...The kids had fun...Molly got tired out from a rough day of chillin' in her stroller...

Then she needed a refreshment....



The next day we spent at the beach, dodging the shit that floats in Lake Erie...Later that night the wife and kids and I went to visit with some friends...We had a great time eating, drinking, and catching up...The Little Beeze was a non-stop ball of energy, going from trampoline, to swing set, to playing with a dog, to roasting marsh mellows, and back again...

Saturday was the Zoo, and a lot of time in the hotel pool...Then dinner at SARA'S...I don't really recommend spending a ton of time in Erie, but if you're there, you have to get some grub at Sara's...

Every evening ended with me laying next to Molls, drinking Sam Adams, and watching a Pirates game...I started thinking of how smart (economically) it is to be a Pittsburgh fan...All of there pro-sports teams have the same color gear...I started thinking of other cities...Some may have two teams, but not all...But don't worry, I'm not getting on the Shittsburgh bandwagon...But you gotta give the Pirates credit, them and the Indians are both playing a lot better then any of us thought they would...

I also realized Eris is a great town for a Sports blogger...They're parked right between Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Buffalo...About a hour and a half away from each city, they get coverage on all of them...That said, I'm not packing my bags yet!

Vacation was fun, but tiring...It didn't really feel like a vacation for me...The wife had to remind me it was about family, and the kids...I still sometimes have those selfish feelings, of wanting a vacation that doesn't involve jugging around the kids and all their shit...One day!

Even the kids were wiped out, and they weren't drinking nearly as much Sam Adams as I was...



When we got home, I saw the "All-Star" teams...So even though I had been harping on how Asdrubal Cabrera should be the AL starter at SS, including breaking down the numbers...That Ass-hat, overrated, Bastard, Derek Jeter got the fan votes...Cabrera got on the team, but he should have got the start...Dude has killed it all year with the bat and glove...He was better defensively as a rookie, then Jeter ever was! But it's about this year, and he as out-shined everyone...

This is more proof that fans should have nothing to do with the "All-Star" game...Especially since the game now counts for Home Field in the World Series...The managers should pick...The worst thing is, every year I get pissed about it, and then I never bother watching the stupid ass game!

Ahh, fuck it...I'm tired...Have a good 4th of July, and be glad that some brave souls fought for our freedom, so we wouldn't be under the rule of those British cunts! Seriously Canada when are you going to tell the Queen to go piss up a rope?

Have a week...

Later, The Beeze.
