Trevor Bauer Will Go to Trial Before He is Allowed to Mount a Comeback!

 As a Public Service Announcement, Trevor Bauer will go to Trial before he is Allowed to Mount a Comeback! I'd think he'd try to sue to win his Freedom and his Career back, a la Darrell Alderman, but, he is not going to be successful.

It would be dangerous to believe that Trevor Bauer would always not be off Law Enforcement's Radar. It would be another Denny McLain, except a lot more Hot Tempered and a Lot Less Manageable and Coachable. 

I'd feel what should be Commissioner Manfred's Responsibility to Baseball is employing Good People. I don't think Commissioner Manfred would be capable of such Late Model Friends Aisha Tyler Casting.

I feel that Trevor Bauer would not mount a Good Defense, he would try to be Defensive, especially if his life is on fire. The biggest mistake that anyone could do is have him go Free until something else happens and everything else goes off again.

2700th Blog: The Rise, Injury and Fall of Michael Vick in Secret Base

 Michael Vick would be like the Tyler back Home in Lisbon, except, it was a Lot Bigger and Much More Hypercompetitive. The Rise involved Michael Vick's Real Life Cousin, Aaron Brooks, who was the only Saints Quarterback other than Drew Brees to helm a Playoff Win in their Lore, Allen Iverson, who still molds the kids, and Lawrence Taylor.

This is not my Favorite Chapter, because that was the Last One. And, City High Alumni Tim Dwight, who believe it or not is NOT my Favorite Little Hawk, or is Coach McCarney, but instead is one of my JEL Era Classmates at the DPH. This is not about High School, it is about the Atlanta Falcons.

Tim Dwight only became an Atlanta Falcon after the Intense Arguments and Equally Intense Trade Calls for Hines Ward fell through. Tim Dwight only became a Trade Piece to the San Diego Super Chargers when all other Options Fell Through.

AI and Vick still mold the Kids, and that put an eraser to the Invincible Lambeau Field and the Frozen Tundra everybody's Dad and Uncle Held like the Wisconsin Man said it was not real life. To the Wisconsin Man and His Family, it is still not real life.

The blender in these years is the Holder and Bay, as the Bay, Tampa Bay, became Division Rivals at this Time, and the Holder, the Carolina Football Panthers, held down real consequences. Carolina and Atlanta are the Only NFL/NFC Membership without a World Championship and Atlanta is the Only One Without a World Championship from the Pre-Merger Years.

Having to color it differently, as a St. Louis Man, I wanted that St. Louis vs. New England Super Bowl Rematch. That did not happen. I feel that Jim Mora,Jr. was another one of those That 70's Hires the Falcons comfortably rooted themselves into. Michael Vick was anything but the Consummate Professional and even for a Franchise that had not seen Normal, the Abnormal Explosion of Business was Abnormal.

Bobby Petrino only wanted to be with Michael Vick and that didn't happen. At this point in history, the Falcons did not have Back to Back Winning Seasons or Postseasons in their Club History, and that was later in the Ryan Years.

What Would Donda Do?

 I am talking about the Actual Donda West, and I had a feeling that Kanye was getting on his Axl Rose Phase and not getting off that ride like it was the 6th Time Around that Train. I mean, we all have Females in our lives, Past and Present, Dead, Alive, or Indian Food (I inserted that to make light on 1980's Pop Culture), and doing them greasy is not a Good Image.

Kanye is not just A Hero, but THE Hero, albeit Uncomfortable, to a New Generation of Youth, particularly Black Male Youth who'd be stuck with Mr. I Threw 5 Touchdowns in High School or an Emotional Wreck who'd be stuck with One A-Hole and Turning Out a Different Kind of A-Hole.

Kanye West is not going to see 50. The Cultural, namely, the Pop Cultural Portion of Chicago is taking more than a Slug. It is getting kicked around like Jeremy Mayfield, and like Jeremy Mayfield, is not afraid to throw punches or steal what they want.

This hero worship makes my House Hollow, and I am speaking from Cedar Rapids and Marion. I am not proud to admit I am a Role Model, but, the least I could say is not fall for Peer Pressure.

I feel like I am starving about everything from Employment to Human Decency and No Girl wants to Bring Out Her Wedding Dress after Her Wedding. It is not a religious experience having the 27 and 108 in Chicago, because the Latter would bring Consternation to the City.

Bishop Sycamore is No Laughing Matter!

 For the decency of what is good in High School Football, Bishop Sycamore is No Laughing Matter! Worse, the Coach has Multiple Warrants for his Arrest and there are a myriad of JUCO Washouts and Dismissals who'd lie, cheat and steal.

Worse, these guys hate going to Class! It is hypocritical and uncalled for, because the 614 is the Capital of Class! I would have been fine with a City Shaming if ESPN had actually been interested in Cedar Rapids Washington vs. Cedar Rapids Jefferson.

Cedar Rapids Jefferson would have lived with the National Shaming, but, that is neither here or there. And, worse, actual Fraud went down just to get these kids where appalling.

Most legit Schools don't want to Play IMG Sports and that is the legit High Schools. I feel that it is not funny or amusing, and the rub is the Lie, Cheat and Steal.

58-0 is bad enough for anyone. 58-0 and Stealing National TV Time is Even Worse.

I don't make up why the 614 is the Capital of Class, even though we Black and Gold Territory. The worst thing is Bishop Sycamore is blighting High School Football and Thumbing its Nose at the Rulebook.

Let's See How Many Teams Dan Snyder Can Mess Up?

 The Washington Spirit's Power Struggle would invite Dan Snyder to say "I'M A HELOPHILIAC!" to get into, out of and back into Fights. I feel that the Power Struggles between the Washington Spirit and the DC United would invite Dan Snyder to own them and dislocate them to the Snyder's Tomb of FedEx Field.

The terror of Dan Snyder is well, well into Sports Infamy. If you gave a Womanizer a Women's Sports Team, your alienating actual Women. If you gave a Womanizer With Money a Women's Sports Team, you'd alienate Little Girls and their Moms. Dan Snyder would be given Cheerleaders, a Team, a Culture, and he'd destroy it!

At Snyder's Crypt, Cryptkeeper Snyder would sell a ton of Bud Lights and Busch Lights and they'd lead the NWSL in Beer Sales. Dan Snyder would want more T and A, when Commissioner Goodell warned him off of the T and A.

And worse, he'd ice being the Barry Switzer of NFL Owners. I would believe he would double down on the T and A and ice out the Actual Women Athletes even further. Everyone is running around DC like it was a Problem and at this rate, they'd name the Football Team after the DC United.

Worse, you'd hire a Drunken Narcoleptic to Manage and Think He's Coach as the Real Coach doesn't even have Her Autograph Cards. You'd have a Pastor be a Peacemaker, than you'd have the Ice Cream Man think he's CEO, and the Real CEO would look mad.

Hoody Hoo Is In Charge of ARCA?

 I am going to be blunt, the ARCA Menards Series and its Subsystems are due for a Rebranding.  I am calling a Point having to tie Master P's Best Hit and tying it up to ARCA. 

Fans are royally impatient and I feel the Manufacturers and General Tire are wanting to push down a Rebranding, because it is a Lean Set of Years, and I am Itchy for a Healthy Movement that doesn't star Hailie Deegan, Taylor and Tanner Gray and Ty Gibbs.

All those kids want to pursue Winston Cup and I feel I am owed some serious answers. Illinois Tim Richmond is headed home to where they haven't recovered from Pearl Harbor Day 1993 when Eagle cut those Hard Working Jobs, not the Tim Richmond that illicits emotion and the Tim Richmond Stories.

The sad thing, is we are living those Tim Richmond Stories again! I feel as a Late Model Fan, I want to see when ARCA came to Hawkeye Downs, Tipton or Vinton, someone at least give me reason to buy merchandise and tickets later on.

My biggest gripe is at Ilmor or Thrill-mor. Ilmor has earned the Jackson 5 Degree of Jokes for Generations now, and I feel if we had a decent Engine Program that was not neutered tomorrow, would Car Counts improve? The dangerous thing is I am spitballing something akin of "The Hero of the Underground" and nobody wants to be heroic.

I feel that the truth is Ty Gibbs is not going to be confused with Mike Eddy, Bob Senneker or Frank Kimmel. It hurt different that Taylor Gray, who's already on a Short Leash because of how his Brother, Tanner, mistreated the NHRA on the Way Out, lent the Proud ARCA Series some unwanted lowlights.

It's the Milwaukee Mile and the haze of Michigan, Drew Dollar, Thad Moffitt, who actually had to race for Sponsors, and the Kevin Reeds blew sideways after hours. This is ARCA's House, not an After Hours Club and it is still burning.

I'd feel the biggest wrap is having to be stuck in a Lifestyle vs. Actually Doing Racing Things.
