Jimmy, we hardly boo yee

March 15, 2024

Driving a couple hours to and from a board meeting heard a lot of discussion as to whether SF 49ers fans, unhappy with Jimmy Garoppolo’s tenure with the team, would support him being back in San Francisco.

Well, he might have gotten booed as a 49ers, but going to be amusing to see what the response is now if/when Jimmy G returns to Levi’s Stadium as a back-up QB for the Los Angeles Rams.

Meanwhile SF Giants have had their third or fourth Spring Training game this year rained out in the desert. But sure, there’s no climate change… #sarcasm

When you say woman who allegedly lied under oath about sex must be disqualified as a Prosecutor…

And also say man who lied about sex with THREE oaths, as in “forsaking all others,” & was found guilty of lying about sexual assault must be our next President.. #SignsItMustBeACult

Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw isn’t moderate. He recently attacked Biden for saying GOP trying to “take away women’s rights.””

Uh, GOP ARE trying to take away women’s rights.

But now Crenshaw said US intel agencies don’t meddle in domestic news coverage so MAGA calls him Eyepatch McCain.

Another of those #SignsItMustBeACult

As Russia goes through yet another sham election, your reminder “The President of Russia is limited to no more than two consecutive six year terms…”

Vladimir Putin has been in power over 20 years. Think his US puppet doesn’t have similar plans if he gets re-election?

As many who genuflect before a serial adulterer clutch their pearls over Fani Willis and her “appearance of impropriety,” I remember Seinfeld’s line during Clinton-Lewinsky scandal. “So he lied about sex. Everyone lies about sex. Most people lie DURING sex.”

NY Times headline: Latinos, Shifting Toward Trump, Land at the Center of the 2024 Campaign If only there were a national newspaper to cover Donald’s threats of arrests and deportation of even legal immigrants if they don’t carry papers or take part in protests.

Regular reminder. If Donald Trump thought he’d be found innocent in ANY of his trials he’d be pushing for that trial to start as soon as possible, so he could brag about, and fundraise off of, the acquittal.

Getting flack

Random dose of awww…

A distant relative of the late great Flaco. (In Napa County)

Lottery balls in the NBA mean less tanking

But this year, guessing more sports fans have heard of the top WNBA draft pick than about the potential #1 and #2 for the men

(For that matter, Cameron Brink should go #2.)

Linebacker Eric Kendricks turned down the SF 49ers to join the Dallas Cowboys as a free agent. Money? Or does Kendricks just like to have his Februarys off?

As a Democrat and Saints fan have known for years my favorite QB Drew Brees is almost certainly a Republican. I can live with that.

Don’t have to share political views with my sports heroes.

OTOH, feeling very grateful as Stanford alum I was NEVER an Aaron Rodgers fan. #Weenies

Donald Trump on possible VP: “Not a person in politics that doesn’t want it & that includes Democrats. If I wanted, I’d have a Democrat, I’d have a liberal, I’d have anybody I want.”

Political ego version of “I moved on her like a b*tch, when you’re a star they let you do it”

Tommy Tuberville called Joe Biden a “garbage human being”

I would call Tuberville a garbage human being but at least garbage can be useful as fertilizer or if recycled.

This NC Superintendent of School election in November should be a bigger story. “Michele Morrow, who has 5 homeschooled children, called public schools “indoctrination centers” & attended Jan. 6, 2021, attack on U.S. Capitol. She also attacked incumbent for being endorsed by GOP Sen. Thom Tillis

What stuns me, looking at a local story, only “77% of Biden voters back Green.” How could ANYONE who supports President Biden support this scary woman?

Remember when we could go to sleep at night and for all the stress in the world we could at least know that a good decent President was in the White House? Like last night. And every night since January 20, 2021 #ThankYouBiden
