Good on ya, Formula 1…

Well..just finished up the kitchen work and shoveling the snow and have settled in to have the rest of the coffee and read a little news…and that news made me smile a little about the world of sports…with the announcement yesterday from UEFA that they are pulling the Champions League final from Russia after Putin’s illegal invasion of Ukraine…today brought another welcome bit of news when Formula 1 announced that the Russian Grand Prix, scheduled for later in the year, has been cancelled for the same reason, that Putin can’t be rewarded for his thuggish behavior and has also forced one of Putin’s favorite cronies, Mazepin, to get the hell out of Formula 1 and stop sponsoring the Haas F1 team…with the additional good result that his son, Nikita, the worst driver that F1 has ever seen is out of a drive that should go to Piero Fittipaldi now…a vastly better driver and he didn’t get there just because his daddy had deep pockets…now, I’m looking toward the Premier league in England to sanction Roman Abramovich and throw him out of the league and find someone else to own Chelsea…and any other Russian that has anything else to do with the league needs to be gone permanently….and the thing that pisses me off is that everyone knew that Abramovich was a Putin crony and got his wealth by stealing it from the Russian people but nothing was done about that…it’s about time that everyone that has anything to do with Russia who hasn’t disavowed Putin pay for being toadies to this asshole…now is the time…geez…
