Not a good week for my teams

The NY Giants lost to the Dallas Cowboys 15-20 in another strange game. The Giants were not bad, but they were not good. They again could not score a touchdown at home (2 Games, no TDs, 7 FGs). Still trying to figure out if coach Brian Daboll and QB Daniel Jones are good/bad/meh. Next week they play in Seattle so we will see

The Lehigh Engineers / Brown & White / Mountain Hawks lost a heartbreaker at home to Bucknell. A couple of big plays (100-yard kickoff return, 85-yard Interception return) kept Bucknell in the game, and they eventually won 35 – 38 when Lehigh fumbled on their 1st play of double overtime. Was a tough way to start off Patriot League play

After getting rained out in Atlanta on Wednesday and Thursday, the Mets played some sloppy baseball and lost 2 out of 3 to a Milwaukee Team that really had nothing to play for. At least they were able to salvage a win, and that set-up having to play a doubleheader today (Monday) against Atlanta, needing to win one of the 2 games to get into the playoffs. Lose both and the season comes to an abrupt end. I’m feeling good that they can win 1 and then it’s back to Milwaukee to start the Wild Card Round

Some sad news in the music/movie/sports world

Kris Kristofferson passed away at the age of 88. A great singer and actor who had a long and prestigious career. I will always remember him from the movie Convoy (which played constantly on HBO when I was growing up). RIP Rubber Duck

Actor John Ashton passed away at the age of 76. A fine actor he is probably best known for his role as Sgt. John Taggart in the Beverly Hills Cops movies. He stared along with Judge Reinhold as Det. William ‘Billy’ Rosewood as police officer’s assigned to keep tabs on Eddie Murphy (Axel Foley). One of my all-time favorites. Here is a classic scene from the move. He will be missed

Basketball MVP Dikembe Mutombo passed away at the age of 58. A standout at Georgetown University, he went on to play 18 years in the NBA. A true legend, he was also a great humanitarian. RIP Dikembe Mutombo

More to come soon
