New York Mets

Glad to see the NY Mets off to a good start. Although they have gotten off to hot starts the past few years, only to fall apart in the middle of the summer, this year feels a bit different. I think Buck Showwalter will be able to keep the team hungry and focused. And having an owner in Steve Cohen who will spend money if needed to improve the team.

New Your Giants

Usually I don’t get to excited about the NFL Draft, but it looks like the Giants picked up some good players who should step in and help. Hopefully with a new General Manager and Head Coach, they Giants can put an improved offense on the field and avoid getting of to bad start. See you in September.

Television

Been a while since I listed some of the shows I watched / am watching.

I am a bit old school and still watch some shows on network TV

Survivor (CBS) – The King of all Reality Shows

The Black List (NBC) – Still really enjoy this each week
The Endgame (NBC) – Kept me entertained. Hopefully there will be a Season 2

A Million Little Things (ABC) – Guilty pleasure

9-1-1 / 9-1-1 Lone Star (FOX) – Some of the things are over the top but keeps me interested

Severance (AppleTV) – Very strange and entering show

Picard (Parmount+) – Really enjoying Season 2 (Almost done, and looking forward to Season 3)

The Book of Boba Fett (Disney) – Really like how they have continued the Star Wars franchise

Also enjoyed Saturday Night Live this season (for the most part, there are still to many dumb skits)

Music

Congratulations to this years inductees to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Eminem, Dolly Parton, Duran Duran, Lionel Richie, Pat Benatar, Eurythmics, and Carly Simon
Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Judas Priest, Harry Belafonte, Elizabeth Cotten
Allen Grubman, Jimmy Iovine, Sylvia Robinson

I’m happy with this years list. Unlike the past few years, where they seemed to push obscure acts and critical favorites, this years inductees are more mainstream and recognizable.

Its Wednesday, and that means another episode of Survivor tonight. I will be back tomorrow with my take and who I think will be the sole survivor this season
