Super Bowl? Hell, no.

Never gave much of a damn either way with the NFL, NBA, or any of those other “N” organizations. These days, you couldn’t pay me to watch that crap. I’m a rodeo and bullriding fan–always have been. It’s about as American as it gets, and you’re likely to get a prayer at the outset. You’ll definitely get the National Anthem. Contestants in the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA), and the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) stand for the Anthem. Unless there’s a good reason not to.

I won’t watch the NFL, or their “Super Bowl” this weekend because I won’t sit and watch a bunch of ridiculously overpaid, spoiled, America-haters take a knee during the National Anthem. The ones that don’t disrespect the flag and the country? They tolerate the ones that do.

The United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs has an Honor Code. In part, it says, “We will not lie, steal, or cheat, nor tolerate among us anyone who does…” If you tolerate the behavior, you may as well participate in it.

If you hate the country or disrespect what it stands for–thank an American Veteran. Those folks are the heroes, and they’re the people that have sacrificed over generations to preserve your right to take a dump all over what America stands for. They paid for it — you can suck it.

Better yet, you can leave. But, you won’t.

DeJoy brings DePain

The US Postal Service is keeping the tradition of taking something that worked, and totally screwing it up.  Like when the government tried to run the whorehouse in Nevada.  They failed—miserably. 

We’ve had packages take nearly a month to arrive, after touring the country like music and circus acts used to do.  That’s Priority Mail—the “good stuff.” 

Credit for this goes to the latest USPS genius Louis DeJoy.  He’s the newest Postmaster General and he’s single-handedly taken a bankrupt but efficient operation and turned it into a bankrupt crapshoot.

Wednesday brings a new President. A dementia patient that will no doubt be in an assisted living facility by the end of the year. I suppose, in a way, the White House qualifies. Politically, I consider myself non-denominational. If disgusted was a party, that’s the one I’d be affiliated with. I doubt I’d be alone.

God knows there is no shortage of blog topics this year so far. All of them have been covered ad nauseam so I’ll spare you the re-regurgitation.

We’ve been through worse. We’ll get through this. What really sucks is that the Shit Sandwich is still on the menu. And, we all have to take a bite.
