SF Giants looked a little hungover after four game series with Dodgers, blowing a 3-0 lead with 2 errors and lethargic play. Until the bottom of the 9th.  When they came up with a 3 run, 2-out rally.   TGFP –  Thank God For Padres.

But Corey Seager is out for the year. Wow. So Giants broke two Dodgers in one weekend? (Him and Puig.)

Despite FIFA’s ethics warning, Trump today again asked African nations to back the US World Cup bid.   “We will be watching very closely and any help they can give us in that bid, we would appreciate.”

At least he didn’t say “Vote for our bid because your countries are shitholes.”#smallmercies

Quite a photo op at the White House today.  Muhammadu Buhari, the Nigerian President and  Donald Trump, the wannabe Nigerian Prince.

Ersan Ilyasova said when the 76ers played the Heat “in Miami … the gym was half-empty.” “Half-empty” -or as the Marlins call that, an opening day crowd.

Waiting for Kanye West to say he should host next year’s WHCD.

If White House Correspondents Association wants a really polished speaker who can tell jokes in a classy manner maybe next year they should invite as their headliner Barack Obama

Just guessing there’s pretty high correlation between people who judge Michelle Wolf much more harshly than they would a man, & those who did the same with Hillary  Clinton.

–

Would it have been better if Michelle Wolf just called Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Kellyanne Conway “nasty women?”

–

Trump claiming his White House has “great Energy and unending Stamina…” That’s why he needs to spend every weekend golfing and/or at one of his resorts?

–

So reportedly John Kelly has repeatedly called Donald Trump “an idiot.” But let’s get to the important stuff – did he talk about Trump’s makeup?

–

John Kelly says he didn’t call Trump an idiot. Of course not. Everyone in the White House knows the correct term is “f*cking moron.”

From Urban Decay Customer Service After suggesting a “burnt lies” eyeliner with proceeds to go to a women’s charity. “That is a great idea! … this will be passed on to our upper management.” Hey, I’d buy it. #PerfectSmokeyEye

Don’t look now after winning 3 of 4 from the Dodgers, SFGiants are back to .500. #BeatLA

And Bruce Bochy says Pablo Sandoval might pitch again. Who needs Ohtani?

Apparently, since the spread was from 6.5 to 5, Las Vegas sports books lost a lot of money when the Pacers hit a last-second three pointer to cut the Cavs’ victory margin from 7 to 4.   On the other hand, think how much Vegas would lose because millions of fans would lose interest with Lebron not playing into Round 2.

And now that we’re approaching the end of April, it’s only SIX WEEKS left until a possible game seven of the NBA finals.

NRA is banning guns at their “Leadership Forum” because VP Mike Pence is speaking. Uh, wait a minute, wouldn’t he be safer with thousands of “good guys with guns?”

–

Speaking as a woman who struggles to just get a nice straight line on occasions I try eyeliner, I’d take “perfect smokey eye” as a compliment. #WHCD

–

Trump refers to Michelle Wolf as “the filthy ‘comedian’.” Because he’s too old and tired to think of an insult based on her name?

#WHCA groveling at @realDonaldTrump’s tiny feet because presumably they worry about losing access. What’s he going to do, stop having press conferences…. ? Uh, never mind.

–

So it’s okay for Trump to say Gail Collins has the “face of a dog” and to say Mika Brzezinski was “bleeding badly from a facelift.” But not to joke about Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ eye makeup? #Snowflakes

–

Seriously, does anyone doubt Trump wrote this tweet in his mind BEFORE #WHCD? “Everyone is talking about the fact that the White House Correspondents Dinner was a very big, boring bust…the so-called comedian really “bombed.” #FakeOutrage

–

Maybe reason media is REALLY angry at @michelleisawolf is not attacks on Sarah Huckabee Sanders but this line – Trump “has helped you sell your papers and your books and your TV. You helped create this monster and now you are profiting from him.” #TheTruthHurts
