There’s been some cold winter weather here in sunny-again Southern California. To wit, the outside temperature in La-La Land never made it to 70°F (!) during February 2019! That’s the first February on record not to hit that mild mark! However, the end of this prolonged chilly spell is nigh. Now, you might think that it’s sissy (snowflake-y!) to note that sort of thing, but, really, it’s a matter of degree — figuratively, literally, the whole thing! Continue reading →

Good advice. No word if Winning Thoroughbred Strategies or Commonsense Handicapping is permissible, however. Continue reading →

You might say we have an obsession with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, and, on the evidence, you would not be wrong! Thanks, Obama! Thanks, Aubameyang! Anyway, eternal rivals No. London Arse and Man Utd. dueled this morning (PDT) at The Emirates, and it was the hosts who hung on to prevail over a profligate United, 2-nil. Here, the aforementioned Aubameyang hits the penalty-shot after it was awarded on a dodgy foul committed against Alexandre Lacazette. Continue reading →

Good morning from not-rainy Southern California, where the live-action Thoroughbred sport has been interrupted. Nevertheless, we persist. Continue reading →

A lot to take in for your Ash Wednesday 2019 now. Not just Ash Wednesday, either. What about Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, Calif.? Hoo-boy. It’s going to be difficult to get this back on the Right Side of History. The righteous indignation and moral outrage can’t be stuffed back in the bottle! So, the one good thing we have to post today is some video of your Victorious Team from the inaugural Jeopardy! All-Star Games. Good work. Continue reading →

All right, all right, ya onetime New Orleanians! Take it easy! Happy f—in’ Mardi Gras now. Happy Mardi Gras this time! Continue reading →

Uh, yeah. So that idea in the Mistah Frank Bruni piece yesterday, the idea of ‘projection’. Well, here we go… Continue reading →

Exquisitely written, and the points are spot-on, especially if you also enjoyed the Bad Blood book the way Mistah Frank Bruni and the rest of us did. Continue reading →

No. London Derby (you know how that’s properly pronounced, right? DAHR-bee!) early this morning (PST), and it ended in a draw, 1-all.
