It's Only Tuesday and its been a hell of a week already. Before I get to the "Toy Store" aka sports (thanks for that analogy Joe Boningo) I just want to quickly address a few things.
First I would like to send my thoughts and prayers to all of the family's and people affected by the shooting in Las Vegas this Monday. I hope that you will receive whatever is needed in this awful time. No one will ever know when Evil will show its ugly head. It seems as though it is showing up more and more now causing everyone to question their safety. The answer is, we can no longer feel the safety we once did because of the world we live in. It's sad. There are ugly, evil people in the world today and nothing will stop them. Not silly gun laws. Not security checks. Nothing. If they want to spew their evil, they will find a way. Shame on anyone out their pushing their own agenda's in a time like this. This is not a time to debate gun laws or terrorism definitions. It is a time to help your fellow man (or woman). Please do so.
Second, Kudos to Jerry Jones in regards to last weeks "To Kneel or not to Kneel" topic. In a sea of crap that was our NFL last week, Jerry Jones (like he usually does) proved he is a smart business man that is always one step ahead and can create a solution for almost any problem. In a sign of unity, Jerry had his entire team and staff kneel before the national anthem in prayer against diversity and for equality and freedom of rights. He then had his entire team stand as one for the Anthem to show Unity. Good Job Jerry well done. "Dilly Dilly"
Third, yesterday we lost one of music's great talents. Tom Petty passed away after falling into a coma after cardiac arrest. He was 66. It's heart breaking to many when someone such as Tom Petty passes. His, and many others music touch us in ways that the artists will never know. Luckily their music will always live on. So turn up that "Last Dance with Mary Jane", 'American Girl" or "Free Falling" as well as countless other hits and celebrate the terrific life of Tom Petty
Speaking of Free Falling..... How bout them Giants (See what I did there). From a team that thought they were superbowl contenders, they now are just a team that needs their first win of the season. 0-4 hurts no matter how you look at it. Don't Worry Giants, you may be one of the worst so far this year but it could be worse. You could be the LA Chargers. Not only are they 0-4 as well but they got moved from their home town in San Diego to LA and no one is showing up to watch them play. Most Football Stadiums hold between 75k and 100k people.... The Chargers are playing in a 27k seat Soccer Arena while they build their new building. And they can only draw 10,000 fans a week to that stadium. That's pathetic. More people go see College games than that.
I feel bad for the soon to be Las Vegas Raiders having their star QB hurt 2 years in a row. A fractured back has to hurt. Poor Derek Carr. The Bears are so bad that they have decided 4 games into the season it's time to go to their rookie QB to save their season. Yep that works every time I'm sure it will work out for you Chicago. I'm pretty sure Alabama could beat the San Fran 49ers at this point btw.... they are so bad (Roll Tide). In a personal side note, I have also been calling out the Atlanta FalCANTS for being the softest "good team" all year and it showed last week. After the Football Gods gifted them 2 wins this year to make them 3-0, lady luck finally kicked them in the balls this week as the Buffalo Bills rolled all over them. I'm calling an 8-8 finish for the FalCANTS this year Just Watch.
Well, till next time everyone stay safe and protect yourself from the evils in this world. Sports and Music really are the toy store of our lives and its a shame when tragedy and politics get intertwined. God Bless
