The Great Distraction 1.5

                                                       Now that Russia Investigation shit has hit the fan.......
     
                                                       LOOK FOR MORE DISTRACTIONS FROM TRUMP.
Hoping for the soon coming day I can say, "Ding Dong the witch is dead The President is Impeached!!
A brick has been placed in that wall with the indictment of  Paul Manafort, Rick gates and George Papadopolis. (who has a plea deal for lying to the FBI)
The high ranking Trump aide already admits to communicating with Russian officials regarding the election. I am not diving deep into this topic at the moment, just know that there are more facts to come. Just like watching the Browns when they have the lead in a football game the other shoe will drop. (in this case the shoes are on the feet of an octopus)
Of course the Trump technique of accusing others of what he in fact is guilty of continues.
There is an accusation of a uranium deal made during the Obama administration and of course Trump screams "do something" in regard to Hillary Clinton as he accuses her of Russian dealings.
Don't fall for it, we have a man in the highest ranking office who has no obligation to the truth.
 The foreign policy adviser George Papadoplis is already being devalued by the Trump administration as a "coffee boy"  and liar.
Now that Papadopolis is singing like a canary,the Trump "deflect and distract" mission is in full affect.  I guarantee there will be doctored up race controversies to distract us from impeaching the President. Which is one of the reasons Trump inserted himself into the NFL protests.
Now that "big papa" is telling what he knows  there is a timeline of  his emails being released, also look out because twitter, face book and google time lines are on the way.
All of this eventually paves the way to treason, espionage, money laundering too many charges to type and the eventually impeachment or perhaps arrest of the most unpatriotic, irresponsible, bigoted, dangerously inept President we've ever known.

Obit for our Tribe

                                                             When a good year isn't good enough....


Can't deny that the season for the Cleveland Indians was good. We had a record breaking winning streak, we've returned to the playoffs, good pitching, nice free agent moves.
 WE FAILED TO WIN THE BIG ONE THOUGH!!!

To be honest this is the fault of Indians Manager Terry Francona. Major League pitchers are use to starting on 4 or 5 days of rest. Baseball is a marathon of a season there are 162 games in the regular season.
The starting of pitchers on 3 day rest has stopped us from winning the championship of baseball for two straight seasons. The Cleveland Indians have one of the deepest Pitching staffs in baseball.
So deep that Ryan Merritt who has a playoff victory on his resume pitches batting practice.
 What is the use of having a deep pitching staff if you don't have faith in them?
Last year in the 2016 playoffs, we pitched Corey Kluber  started 3 games out of 7 winning on 3 days rest in game 4 Vs. The Chicago Cubs.
 The man has already done a herculean job, but nope not enough! At some point there needed to be trust in the remaining (albeit injury riddled) staff. WE WERE UP 3-1!  Josh Tomlin started on 3 days rest in game 6 of the World Series the Tribe lost. By the way that was the first time he did that in his career.
  Kluber started on back to back 3 days rest in the Game 7 of The World Series and lost. The Cubs beat us 4-3 in the 2016 World Series.
Francona didn't learn as he started Bauer on 3 days rest in game 4 of the 2017 ALCS  Series and was burned again. (by the Yankees)
This is not the day of Bob Gibson, Nolan Ryan, or Cy Young...... Pitchers need rest in 2017.
 According to Zachery D. Rymer, between 2000-2013 teams who start pitchers on 3 days rest are 24-34 in the postseason.
As it relates to winning in best of 5 or 7 games series your best foot must be put forward.
To be honest Vs. the Yankees our ace crapped his pants, Errors were made by our defense, and our hitting went cold at the wrong time.
 The manager's job is to place his team in the best position to win and by starting our pitchers on 3 days rest unnecessarily, he didn't do that.

                                                                  Much love!

Too all my people who follow me I took a little birthday break. Please read my previous blogs I believe I've been able to give a modicum of insight. Sports, Life and Poetry...

                                                                    Shout outs to:
Nas, Jemelle Hill, TD Sheppard,

The whole UFC, The Cavs, The Indians,

 The Incredible Hulk, My Noble and Boulevard
 Chess Kids, The Nfl Owners and players,
 
 My Uncle Buddy boy in Memphis, RIP Antonio.


                                                                             

                                                                                              Cfl Picks

                                                                     USC VS. NOTRE DAME $$

                                                   I am really impressed by the Georgia Dawgs this year. Notre               Dame lost by 1 point to them at home. The Irish win, USC does a lot of things well, nothing     consistently.
                                                                      MICHIGAN VS. PENN STATE$$

                                                     The Nittany Lions have a tough road for the next three games.                                                              Saquon Barkley and an underrated Penn State defense win @ home.

                                                                        UCF VS. NAVY$$
                                                                     
                                                              The option style Navy offense will give the undefeated                                                                            UCF Bulls in a close wild game.

                                                                                 NFL Picks
                                                                   Oakland vs. Kansas City$$
                                                               I still believe this is the best team in the league. Andy Reid                                                                 will go back to the drawing board in a short week. Chiefs win.

                                                                     Tampa Bay Vs, The Bills$$
                                                                 
                                                                    The Bills are tougher @ home, so shall they win.

                                                                       Arizona Cardinals Vs. The LA Rams

                                                                         I love the addition of Adrian Peterson I expect the                                                                         Cardinals to go on a playoff run from here with Bruce Arians.
                                                               
                                                                        Nba Pick
                                                                     
                                                                  $$  Cavs Vs. Bucks

                                                                   The greek freak looks amazing, Cavs spoil the opener, I                                                                            love the depth and versatility of the bench

                                                                        WEEKLY PICKS: CFB/ NFL/ MLB

                                                                                      CFB

                                                                            West Virginia Vs. TCU$$

                                                   The Horned Frogs will get revenge against the Mountaineers, they                                                          were blown out last year. Kenny Hill is a bit underrated at Qb.
                                                     Frogs win with good defensive effort.

                                                                                   Miami Vs. Florida State$$
                                                       
                                                       I just think that FSU is too desperate, to lose to the Hurricanes at                                                           home.  This is the best version of  The U we've seen in a while, I                                                            also believe the Seminoles are better than 1-2. Seminoles win.   
                                                   
                                                                                      Wisconsin Vs. Nebraska$$
                                                         Nebraska gets an upset in a defensive struggle.

                                                                                             NFL
                                                                           Green Bay Vs. Dallas
                                                           Not an easy game to pick look for Dallas to rise to the occasion.
                                                           
                                                                             Carolina Vs. Detroit
                                                             I really like the balance of the Lions this year. Cam has been                                                                   inconsistent at times. You also need him to run the ball in order                                                               for the Panthers to be successful. I expect Stafford to be                                                                         focused and the Lions win again.
                                                                                 
                                                                                 Chiefs Vs Texans
                                                               The Chiefs have fluidity between offense and defensive                                                                           performance. I love Deshawn Watson this is easily the game                                                                   of the week in my opinion. Texans win in a thriller. No more                                                                   undefeated NFL teams.

                                                                                        MLB
                                                                                    New York Vs. Cleveland
                                                                  Pitching and defense wins championships. Indians are up 1-                                                                    0 coming off a shut out of the Yankees. The Tribe beat the                                                                     Yanks tonight and win the series.
                                                                         
                                                                                Houston Vs. Boston                                             
                                                                 The Astros lineup is too powerful and prolific, they beat                                                                         Red Sox today and win series.

                                                                    JoJo is 13-12-1 on his picks. Partially because he picks the                                                                       sorry ass Browns on occasion
