Why I hate Sports!

By -
When I was younger, I used to watch sports all the time. Things have changed. What changed my mind? Money. Greed. These people make millions to play a sport. I think teachers should be getting that kind of money. Players do not teach anything. They do show what greed leads to. Then, you have the owners. The most greedy people in the world. They always complain that they do not have enough money, especially when it comes to building stadiums. They blackmail municipalities to pay with their tax dollars or the team will leave. Then, they get the rent from the venue, etc. Look at coaches, just like CEO's. They get these huge dollar contracts. They might start out strong and then fail. When it is time to cut them, they have a payout for their contract. Failing upwards. Players do not get paid equally. Usually, there is one star and then the money trickles downward. You have players risking their health for one or two people. Do they get a bonus when injured? Unfortunately, this is going down to all levels of sports. College sports are paying players. Coaches make too much money and are easily enticed to jump ship to a program that can pay more. Where does that money come from? You know teachers are making it. High schools are getting that way. Look at the Olympics! Money has destroyed them! I really can't watch them because of what money has done to them.

Crazy Chickens

By -
 I'm sitting in my office at home.  All I can hear is the sound of chickens squawking. I think they are trying to encourage me to feed them.  I know when I go out, it will be like Ace Ventura and the animals flocking to him.  I do know they will squawk before laying an egg.  The roosters are non-stop with their calls!

I Feel Lost

By -
 This week, my phone died.  I could not believe it.  I was looking on it and it goes black.  I have my wife look at it.  She gets it to come back to life and updates it to the Icloud.  I start looking at it again.  Then, it dies again.  This time it is for good.  She called TMobile.  They wanted me to enter passwords.  I could not remember them.  They were on the phone.  Eventually, I used my Ipod to access something.  Because it was under a plan we have, I am able to get a new phone.  Only catch is is that it is the same model, Iphone 11.  If I wanted the newest phone, I would have to pay $300.  I went with the same model.  Now I just need to get it.  I find myself lost without my phone.

Stock Manipulation

By -
 Trump is at it again.  Using his power to manipulate stocks.  Yesterday, while stocks were sinking, he announced that the war was almost over.   I doubt that.  He did this to play with the market.  Gas even went down a little.  He probably wishes gas could increase, and the market would do the same.  His family bought in early because of insider information.  I guess corruption is allowed as long as you don't cross the king.  Then, he'd have his puppet in DOJ go after them.
