The Networks are In The Worst Shape they've Ever Been!

 I feel livid not necessarily ABC Drydocking Doctor Odyssey, but HOW ABC Drydocked Doctor Odyssey! The symptom is how Network TV is Jettisoning Promising Series ON PURPOSE versus setting them up for Syndication Money!

Even though it is not new Streaming is Making Us Analog Fans Steaming, but How they are Making Us Steam is another Story! I'd be 40 Years This Month, and I've never Seen Network TV in the any Worse Shape its Ever Been!

Excuses and Stoppages would be in the Hollywood Cake and worse yet, I'd like to see my Stars in Hollywood. And, to top it off, Doctor Odyssey's Saga is not the Only Network Fiasco.

Grosse Pointe Garden Society has to cook NBC worse, and that would be a Genuine Brilliant But Cancelled. The problem would be Prestige TV has lost its feeling.

If I was in Hollywood, I'd want Characters you'd Love or Hate Immediately. There is No Middle Ground at all.

Celebrities, All Stars, VIP's and Weddings, Oh My!

 I feel that Jeff Bezos can buy a Whole KMart of a System, or Scale a TNN, but, he can't buy Trust. Even though he said "No Gifts", but, god forbid if my Mom's Hard Earned Money went back to Divorce Court.

Speaking of Bought Trust, I would be livid that we'd have Miserable Summer after Miserable Summer without Sears or Younkers in Town, and our Misers of Mall Managers are not handling Business the Right Way.

My Late Uncle Dave said Macerich was helpful when they where In Town, and he was far from a Saint (Or Any Other Letter Jacket). Even though its not Hospitals, but, it is annoying to have all your rosier Shopping Options be Out of Town.

KMart, had they had better people instead of riding the Martha Gravy Boat, would have been a Thorn in Target's Side, and Amazon is a Thorn in Walmart's Side. But, you'd see Amazon buying and selling the Space Program, or Buying and Selling ESPN from restoring Bob Jenkins and Benny Parsons.

The Wisconsin Man and His Family Won't Give Up a Fight!

 Wisconsin's Lawsuit against Miami would only prove one thing as the Wisconsin Man and His Family won't give up a Fight! I know Miami's a Greek Curse, and it doesn't help they'd be wearing out Meaningful Jewelry instead of Ohio State.

The curse in all of this is there are more Curse Words than the English Language at these Wisconsin Taverns toward the U at their Bars. I think one of my fears, is that they'd play possum with these NIL's Further, and instead of encouraging Ice Hockey or Varsity Wrestling, we'd encourage Narcissists whose only purpose is to get rich and famous quick.

Believe me, there is Hollywood for that.

Is Major League Soccer Really Minor League Soccer?

 I feel as a Sports Fan, we'd beg for Sports Journalists not be Sports Fanboys and Fangirls. Secretly, we have replaced the Died in Wool Journalist with Fanboys and Fangirls and the Lividity is Comprehensive.

After the Worst Behaved Championship (2021), the MLS had the Genius Idea of throwing their Games behind a Paywall. The only good reason to Go Pay Per View is to be Elite or Not Give Your Elderly Relatives a Triple Bypass. That is not it.

And, the Current Brass is Royally Flunking Sports Business and they do not care. If we had Manchester United and others come to town, there should be an expectation of being better. The Major League Soccer has not had a 5 Year World Club Powerhouse.

And, the rot gets worse, as Messi stands for Soft Leadership, and our Kids are Playing Mid End English Teams. The United States criminally spends the Most Money on Soccer ONLY to make Places that don't even have a Slightest Patch of Green Grass look like World Stoppers! If this where England, it would have been on Every Show!

And, the Soccer Business is not disguising the Sir Alex Void which is 12 Years Old and unabashedly, being more dangerous than some 18 Year Olds and not afraid to show it. I don't want to go back to the Bad Old Days of Defending Territory and Manhood with Drunk and Violent Hooliganism, but, somebody's gonna say it.

Would we have been alright with the Las Vegas A's?

 In hindsight, I wish we would have been on the road to the Las Vegas A's. Instead, they took the Cowards Way Out, and to take it farther, Nix Sacramento from the Name. Minor League Baseball would have been Upset and it would have been affecting the Las Vegas 51's and Sacramento River Dogs's Futures and made the Pacific Coast League scramble for New Territory.

At this rate, the Athletics wouldn't have a Stable System until we'd run deeper in restoring the Presidency. And, Mr. Manfred was not ready to give the Benefit of the Doubt to Oakland. 

Oakland Fans would rightfully beg to differ, for many reasons, and the Money Moves of the Athletics Ownership are Impulsive and Short Sided. Sports is not in a Good Place Currently.

Is Sabrina Carpenter Secretly Cooking "The Simpsons" Future?

 One thing I hate as an Entertainment Fan has been Underproduction has gotten acceptable. And, that is without 2019-2021. I admit that Sabrina Carpenter has been one of the few Repeat CD Buys/Successful Requests in Recent Years, but, I do not like Entertainers coming in From Children's or Reality TV.

Speaking of Cooking, The Simpsons Future is on a Multi Year Rachel Green, and as a Sitcom Fan, I was afraid of that. Since Milhouse left the building, I'd feel The Simpsons would run out of Key People or Worse, Send in Elsa to Fix Marge Simpson.

Sabrina Carpenter is secretly cooking "The Simpsons" Future and not just because She's Bart Simpson's Niece. It is not as bad as "Family Guy", but, Fox Brass have always kept up a Scared to Lose Mentality around The Simpsons.

What I'd fear would be an Unelegant 21st Century Repeat is The Simpsons are kept around further than the Courts and that Cancels a Better Series, and Everwood Fans are Still Angry to put it Mildly how the CW Elected to keep 7th Heaven around, in Hindsight, was anything but heavenly.
