Well….that was a shocker…Michigan just beat Ohio State for the 4th year in a row and that was not supposed to happen with Ohio a 23 point favorite and ranked #2 in the country…it was a defensive game with neither offense doing much but Michigan scored the 13 points they needed to win against 10 points for Ohio…the game was scarred with scuffles between the teams at the end and it pisses me off that the new head coaches at Michigan and Ohio are not teaching their players the number one thing for me in college sports and that is respect for your opponent…and that will mar this win for me…it is a win but damn what an ugly way to end a good win…

Watch out Gym Jordan…George is coming for you…
Well…I know you’ve heard of the trump toady, Jim Jordan, the rep from Ohio who is probably one of the nastiest people in all of the congress and who continues to push the lies about the 2020 election and all the other lies about the dems on a daily basis…but he is most well known, in some circles, for his ignoring the sexual abuse of athletes at Ohio State when he was a wrestling coach there and allowing it to continue for years….and then claiming he never saw anything even though multiple athletes testified that they told him when the abuse was going on and he did nothing to stop it. So far, he has avoided any consequences for his lack of action and the coverup that came after the abuse…but, that just may change in the near future with the announcement that George Clooney is going to produce a documentary about the scandal…and will pierce the bubble of coverup that has allowed Jordan to get elected to congress and avoid any responsibility for his complicity in this abuse…I really do hope that Jordan and everyone like him whether they are repubs or dems will finally pay for ignoring the abuse of people who they are supposed to be protecting…but, I don’t know if I have any hope that this will happen…after all, the head of the repub party has abused and sexually assaulted many, many women and has never been held responsible for it….and the repubs like it that way….geez…
Imagine if Hillary said no…
Well…everyone knows that Jim Jordan was involved with the January 6th insurrection since he called the WH about a dozen times on the 6th and had been one of the house repubs who was pushing to not certify that Biden won the election…and the January 6th committee wants to talk to him as a material witness to what happened that day since he was so involved in the plotting…the committee sent him a letter last week asking him to come in and answer some questions about his role in the day….and, of course, he has refused citing a bunch of bullshit reasons that mostly say that he doesn’t think the committee has the authority or is not legal…etc. etc….things that the courts have already decided in the committees favor…and, just for a minute, let’s do little thought experiment on what would have happened if Hillary had said no to the 6 bogus “investigations” into Benghazi and had refused to either testify or provide documents about that day….the repubs would still be howling about it and the two faced assholes would have tried to have her arrested and brought to the House in handcuffs…but, she didn’t refuse…she didn’t claim the 5th amendment but testified in front of the committee for 11 hours…and provided them with all the documents they wanted…and there was nothing there…that all the repubs knew and they also knew that all of the investigation’s only purpose was to damage her in the election…but she knew that, too, and showed up anyway…that’s what a good American does….and one thing Jim Jordan isn’t is a good American…after all, he looked the other way while athletes he was supposed to protect at Ohio State were abused by a doctor in the wrestling program…he knew what was happening and did nothing…let’s all remember that fact about his character and put his refusal to meet with the committee in context…he is an immoral asshole who has done nothing to make this country a better place…and now he hides from the consequences of his actions on January 6th….let’s hope the committee won’t put up with his bullshit…geez…
Michigan beats Ohio State!!
Well…holy, holy crap! Michigan just beat Ohio State by the score of 42-27 and I am so damn geeked…Big Ten East champs and go into the playoff next Sat for the championship…and if they win that one, they will be in the playoffs for the National Championship in January…probably the most complete game I have ever seen the Wolverines play…they just ran over Ohio and matched them every time they scored….it has been such a long time since Michigan did this that I thought they never would again….today they were the much better team and will end up in the top four at least and maybe all the way up to second since Ohio was 2nd and got completely whipped….I think I’ll have a smile on my face the rest of the day…Go Blue!
He’s good at ignoring crimes…
Well…have been doing some fiddling around here today and almost forgot to come back here for this one…as you know, Jim Jordan has been one of the idiot trump’s biggest protectors in the House and many people are wondering how he can ignore all of the crimes the trump has committed and the answer is that he is very good at it and has lots of practice from his time as a wrestling coach at Ohio State. Just yesterday, another person has come forward to say that he told Jordan about sexual abuse that was going on by the school doctor there and Jordan just ignored that crime, too and went about his merry way, allowing the doctor to continue abusing athletes there for months after at least two people told him what was going on…and let’s be blunt, it was Jordan’s job to protect his athletes not the abusing doctor just as it is his responsibility to protect the constitution and not the lawbreaker trump. At the very least, Jordan should resign today, and if there is any justice in the world, his role in the conspiracy of silence at Ohio State should be prosecuted and this criminal should be in jail…but like all the rest of the repubs, he thinks the law doesn’t apply to trump or himself and will do his best to make sure it doesn’t with trump….
Impeach Rosenstein?
Well…I’m sure you’ve heard by now of the latest nonsense coming out of house repubs…yesterday two of these idiots filed articles of impeachment against Rod Rosenstein for doing his job investigating the crimes of trump and his cronies. The biggest laugh about this whole thing is that one of the guys pushing it is Jim Jordan, you know, the guy who was a coach at Ohio State and looked the other way as hundreds of athletes were molested by a team doctor there…and Jordan knew this was going on…at least 10 of these athletes told Jordan what was going on and he just ignored them…so to have him have a hissy fit about Rosenstein is just a laffer…he should be in jail right now and he may yet be charged with a felony for his part in the scandal. Another reason that these charges have been filed now is that these guys are heading back to their districts to try to raise money for their campaigns…and, what has been shown is that attacking Rosenstein is a money maker for repubs…so, take it all with a grain of salt…these articles will never see the floor of the house…it’s all just theater…impeach…
I wish someone would do something…
Well…as I said this morning, there has not been much going on in politics for me to write about and I guess it’s one of the problems a couterpuncher has…someone has to punch first…and no one is punching so I guess I’ll have to come up with something on my own. Hmmmmm…oh, Ohio State…as a Michigan fan, I’m having a hard time dredging up any sympathy for the situation there…I’m glad that Tressel resigned and that the shenanigans with almost their whole team has been exposed; the smirk has been taken off the face of their fans and they are going through what we went through with Rodriguez. They will always be known as cheaters now…
Oh, on politics….just some general stuff that has been percolating…I hope the repub idiots here in Michigan get their victory dances in now because they are going to pay in 2012….we may still have a repub governor, but we will have at least the house or senate back after these thugs gave the state away to business on the backs of retirees and the poor…the pendulum is going to swing back to sanity after the flirtation with the tea party and it’s right wing radicals. You heard it here first….that’s about it for now…thinking is not coming easily right now….but is is so much better than this morning…I think I’ll do a no booze day count…might be fun to chronicle…
