A Foggy, Gloomy, Nasty Day In The Big Apple.

Have a lot of misc. stuff on my mind, so let’s get started with ... oh ... but first ... it is foggy, gloomy and nasty out ...


A huge TGIF shout out to all of my Worker Bee friends and to the rest of you loyal and faithful readers out there in the hinterlands.


Billi Pod’s report card on DALLY WITH THE DEVIL==>B+<==totally enjoyable.


The acting is terrific. The engrossing story line is made very believable. Yes ... believable ... trust me on this ... remember ... I have political and statewide campaign experience from years and years ago. See it.


Thankfully Billi Pod was not at The House That Greed And Ego Built last night as Tampa Bay beat our butts 15-8.


Girardi fielded basically a replacement lineup and Bartolo Colon sucked again and I think that his place on the post season starting roster is in serious jeopardy.

Billi Pod’s entertainment event for tonight is ... tada ... more baseball ...


7:05==>YANKEES/BOSTON FUCKSOX @ Yankee Stadium.


This will be my next-to-last regular season home game and I will be in my usual seat.


Freddy Garcia will be on the mound as we, hopefully, drive the stake deeper into the hearts of this slumping scum-bag team, in the first of a 3-game series. Weather is gonna be very iffy but it will take a monsoon to keep this game from being played, trust me on this. Time is running out.


Folks, in the name of fair and unbiased reporting Billi Pod has to state that he does not believe The FuckSox will miss the playoffs. It makes him want to puke to write this, but ... they have a good team. And, remember, this is baseball, which is subject to streaks. A losing streak can quickly turn into a winning streak and that is what scares Billi Pod. He would much rather have The Rays in the post season than The FuckSox.

I have received my post season tickets, which we had to pay for about 3 weeks ago. As I posted earlier in the season, Yankee management really f**ked-over the holders of the 41-game partial season ticket packages when they reduced our post season ticket privileges by 1/2, meaning: I only have 2 tickets for the Division Series, 2 for the League Championship Series and 1 for The World Series.


Yet another reason why many of us are seriously considering not renewing or at best opting for the 20 game package. Time will tell.


And, while Billi Pod is whining ... I HATE what FaceBook has shoved down our throats, but ... what can we do? Nothing. If you aren’t on FB you haven’t a clue what I am talking about, but, folks, it is too complicated to try to explain ... suffice it to say ... it’s their way or the hallway ... so ... we just gotta live with it ...


Billi Pod is really surprised and pleased about at all of the favorable comments, posts, emails and texts regarding yesterday’s JUDDA THE HUT posting. A number of people opined that it ranks right up there with the “Condom on The Sleeve” story from back in 1995.


Really looking forward to seeing the just released MONEY BALL, starring Brad Pitt, Jonah Hill and Philip Seymour Hoffman. The show follows Billy Beane, the general manager of the hapless and underfunded Oakland A’s, as he turns to unusual statistical analysis provided by Jonah Hill’s character to lead the team to a historic ascent during the 2002 season.


The movie has received basically rave reviews and I believe it will be a box-office smash this weekend. For this reason I will put off seeing it until Monday or Tuesday, probably at an afternoon time.


OMFG!! It is 11:30am and, boy, is it nasty looking out right now. Foggy and hazy. I can barely make out the buildings one block north of PHC.

Also looking forward to the GATORS/WILDCATS game on Saturday night, which, thankfully, will be carried locally on ESPN.


Damn, some of the local “pundits” are predicting a major Gator letdown and the possibility of an upset. Come on my boys ... show these assholes, probably graduates of Half Ass U, that they are wrong and kick some butt.


GO GATORS AND GO YANKEES!!
