Left Coast Sports Babe

Owner Jerry Jones says Dallas Cowboys intend to play all their home games with fans in attendance. New slogan “People are dying to watch the Cowboys.”

Clemson coach Dabo Swinney says Big Ten & Pac 12 not playing football won’t “damage” meaning that comes w/ CFB national championship. Well, not like the two conferences are ever likely to get more than 1 team in the playoffs anyway.

Jerry Jones also says the Cowboys won’t reveal their anthem policy but “We’re going to show grace.”

This might be the first time the words “Jones” and “grace” get used in the same sentence.

A baby boy born on an Alaska Airlines flight was named “Sky.” I shudder to think what the poor kid would have been named if he was born on a Spirit Airlines flight.

NY friend pointed out to me- while those on West Coast might watch Rachel Maddow and even Lawrence O’Donnell with a glass of wine before dinner, they’re closer to late-night on the East Coast. Especially for those who have to get up early for work.  Bringing up the question, how are you all calm enough to sleep after those shows?

So a GOP talking point about Kamala Harris is that she apparently has one distant ancestor that was a slaveowner. Guessing Republicans haven’t read much history. May I suggest starting with the story of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings?

Can one of Joe Biden’s first Executive Orders be to make the Postmaster General an office requiring Senate confirmation?

–

Amy Klobuchar coined a nickname for Trump henchman and current postmaster general Louis DeJoy   – #NoJoy.    I think it should stick.

So in same hour Trump says he will not back $25 billion request from Democrats for Post Office. Then says ‘The Democrats are sabotaging Post Office because they’re not approving the $25 billion that was requested.’

Forget #25thAmendmentNow

More like 25th Amendment yesterday.

So the latest GOP attack is comparing Kamala Harris to Marge Simpson? Uh, right about now Marge Simpson could beat Trump in landslide. Heck, Bart Simpson could beat Trump in a landslide.

Sigh. Been tweeting enough about Trump now I’m getting Twitter ads for the “Walk to End Alzheimers.”

–

I suppose it would have been childish if Joe Biden and Kamala Harris had entered their first joint event by walking up a ramp together and then both drinking a glass of water with one hand.

Watching Joe Biden and Kamala Harris speak and then watching some of Trump’s speech is like going from high-speed internet back to the days of 1990s dial-up.
