Watching the morons that were celebrating the Lakers Championship made me think of one thing. What a bunch of stupid motherfuckers. Why burn your own neighborhood when the Lakers win? You scumbag douche bags have no clue. Sit at home like the rest of the Laker fans, that can't afford to go to Staples or Orlando, have a beer and celebrate like normal hums. Fucksticks.
Sammy Sosa named for positive performance enhancing drugs in '03. Duh! Jesus Christ on a crutch, folks. Sammy was a whopping 165 lbs at age 21. By age 40, he was 235 lbs. He cites that nutrition was responsible for weight gain. The dud was not fat. He was cut. This is the guy that just forgot how to speak English on Capitol Hill during the Steroid Hearings a few years back just as Mark McGwire did not want to speak about the past. Any fan could see that Sosa, McGwire, Giambi, Brady Anderson, Caminiti, Canseco, Belle and many others were not normally huge, that there was something amiss. Yes, new ballparks got smaller, but middle infielders got bigger and outfielders got huge. Just saying.........Dumb asses! Grow up and do it the natural way.
On an ending note, Happy Father's Day to all who are fathers. To you who aren't..........drink a beer for me. To all that have pops away from home duty to military service we send you all well wishes and thanks. To those whose fathers are no longer with us, especially Larry Chamberlain, our thoughts are with those. Larry is the father of a former friend of mine. Larry was a different cat. He was a hard ass. He looked at you and sneered. That is until you became an adult then he grunted too. Larry was cool and loved his wife more than anyone I think I have ever seen. Jan was his everything and that was where his soft spot was. He cared for his kids. Tami, I can never feel your pain, but stick in there.
Another who passed a few years back, Tim Crowther, was a huge influence on me. Tim was the biggest mentor to me aside from my dad. Tim was a baseball, softball, basketball and golf coach in the north end of Glendora. He was a Glendora Police Officer who was the opposite of those around him. He was kind, gentle and not a prick like so many other Glendora cops. I am a son of a former Irwindale cop who respects the job immensely. Tim was the type of guy that volunteered even when his kids weren't involved. Tim taught me one awesome thing; take all of the good and bad from a situation and put it in the back of your mind and use the good when faced with a similar situation and do not utilize the bad ever. He was the best. Hang in there Donna, Dan and Dana.
May you all be well. If you have a job be thankful. A contemporary of mine gave me a little mantra: "Stay away from the shopping cart". Meaning- hopefully we do not lose our jobs over the court's whirlwind budget crisis in the next 4 years.
