Lowest denominator ETC

 We are driven to discuss and focus on , what is these days,, the Lowest Possible denominator...

The Lauren Boborts ,, the MTG, Matt Gates, Paul Gosar....I'm sure that they have their Democratic counterparts.... but we constantly read stores about these assholes..  and why,,, they are smart enough (cause no one can be this stupid) to keep them selves in the news,,,, they make statements that they know the news can't help but carry,, and re-quote them,, and show their photos,,, this I believe is similar to other performers.. Madonna,  the Kardashians - those types... they did and do outrageous things, so that they stay current... they make people cover them... they know what they are doing...   Maybe it it time to at least spend the same time and energy on the other part of humanity - the TOP half instead of the bottom half....   Just sayin,,

We have been in the South now for 4 months......  not that long huh,,,, but things are different here..  A) it is difficult to find many people ,,,  specially older folks that are from HERE...  everyone came here from elsewhere....  mostly up North - - Like us !   The nurse at my DR is the only person that I can think of that sad she was born and raised here,,, damn near right here,... B) Yes - its hot and humid  (it was) every day in June July , August and into September,.. only now is it beginning to get really nice... C) i'd say - folks here do not drive very well,,, but remember - most of them are NOT from here...... D) people calling you Honey, Baby, Darling, Sweetie,,, is normal... I think it is at times a derogatory term...  but most of the time I think they really are trying to be nice.... E)  

Let's talk about the Mets for a second,,,, now I do not follow them near at all,,, not the way the Redsox fans follow the yankees....  but - they did win 101 games this year..... they had - had a 10 1/2 game lead in the NL East over the Braves....   yes ,,they lost the season series to Atlanta - so when Atlanta tied them - yup the Mets lost a 10 1/2 game lead - so when the Braves tied them for the NL east lead - Atlanta won the East and the Mets ended up being the 4th seed - and had to play the Wild card Series.... now as the 4th seed they got the 3 games at HOME - Citi Field - over the Padres that were the 5th Seed at 89 and 73... I think the Padres knew coming into the Series that they would face Both Scherzer and de Grom... and they had to beat one of them to win the Series..... and damn if they did not beat Scherzer - putting 7 runs on 7 hits against him in 4.2 innings,.... while they held the Mets to 1 run on 7 hits,,, then the mets won with deGrom - no surprise ,,,, bu then Game 3 - the Mets were shutout on a ONE HITTER - they only had 2 base runners a walk and that one hit !!  Just like that - Whoosh ,,,,,  your season is OVER  !! 101 wins meaningless - ...... So yankees and yankee fans beware !!! Even though the Yanks have a better record than the Guardians,,, won 5 of the 7 head to head games agains the guardians,,,, it can all go away in a flash - don't even be looking ahead to Houston (if that is who wins that series) Focus on the task at hand and win game one,,, Scheerzer DID NOT pitch like the guy the Mets thought they signed,,, Let's see If COLE does....  this is a Dangerous best of 5 .... Winning GAME ONE is imperative !!
