Not a big win

Well , USC won, but not big. 17 to 10. At least the defense kept them in the game. Arizona had been averaging 50 points a game. I guess that's why USC didn't drop in the BCS poll. That was a surprise.

Well that's it for now, Have a great week.

Nothing to say

I really don't have anything to say, but I thought I'd better post something.

USC beat Washington State 69 to 0 last Saturday. It should have been 70 to 0, but WSU blocked a PAT. That's 2 shutouts in a row for USC. That hasn't been done by them since the 70's. I doubt that they will pull off another one though. They travel to Arizona to take on the Wildcats this Saturday. They're going to be tougher that WSU. USC is #5 in the first BCS poll. Hopefully some of the teams ahead of them will lose, and SC can move up. We're shooting for 1 or 2. Fight on!

Dodgers Gone :(

Well the Dodgers are gone. Congrats to the Phillies.

It hasn't been a good day. Came to work and found out I have to work overtime tomorrow. I'm really tired of working OT. I need a break. I'm getting run down. I guess I should be happy that I have a good job, especially in these bad economic times, but if you knew what we have been going through here at work, being shorthanded, you'd understand where I'm coming from. We need to recruit more Klingons to the Defence Force, get them trained and running the ship.

Anyway, friends are coming over this weekend, after a funeral. Not sure if we're going to the funeral or not. Then there is a USC game sometime on Saturday. I have to check when that is. I missed the game last week due to the marriage retreat, but I'm not complaining. That retreat was great. Some great stuff. You can go to the Love and Respect blog, down at the bottom of my blog page. It's one of the "blogs I follow".


Well that's about it for now, Klang out.

LA Kings

YES! the LA Kings beat the Ducks last night, 6 to 3. It was their first meeting of the season, and the Kings won. I don't know how many times this will happen, or even if it will happen again this year, but as of right now, the Kings are up on the Ducks. And I'm happy because of it. I'm NOT a Ducks fan. I'm a Kings fan. Even though the Kings are the 3rd youngest team in the NHL, and are not expected to do very well, I will still be a Kings fan.

The Dodgers play tonight. It's a must win situation for them. If they lose, they are done. Go Dodgers.

And USC plays Saturday. Here's hoping that 1,2,3,4, & 5 lose and the Trojans are #1 again. At least that they make it to the National Championship game this year. That would be fantastic. They have to do their part though and win out the rest of the season. Fight On!

That's it for now, Klang out.

Dodger Blues

Well it looks like the Dodgers aren't going to make it to the World Series. They lost at home to the Phillies last night. They are down 3 games to 1. The Phillies only need one more win to eliminate the Boys in Blue. Who knows, maybe there will be a miracle and they will pull it out, but that means they will have to win the rest of the games. Go Dodger Blue!

Also, I just want to say how Blessed I am by my family. They all had yesterday off due to Columbus Day. The girls cooked dinner, and they all got out and did the yard work for me. They did a great job too.

I don't often tell them, but I want to make it public on this blog, that I love my girls very much. All my girls, my wife included, She's great! Love ya sheesh-o-phlip!

Well that's about it for this session of rambling.

Good weekend

Well USC won this weekend, and 1,3&4 all lost. Yes! The Dodgers won on Sunday, Yes! And my wife and I went to a marriage conference put on by our church on Saturday. It was a great conference! We watched the Love & Respect videos. WOW! I recommend these DVD's to EVERYONE, Christian or not. There is some great info in there about how to treat you spouse, and why women think the way they do, and why men think the way they do. We're different, if you haven't figured that out yet. (And even if you have) Check this out online. http://www.loveandrespect.com This info is great even if you aren't married. Please check it out. The leaders even have a blog. http://emersonandsarah.blogspot.com

Angels Gone

Sorry all you Angel fans. I would have liked to see the Angels go further (well I don't know, I'm still kinda up in the air about that one. We Dodger fans have had to endure a lot from the Angel fans for a while now. It's kinda nice to be on the other end again.) Hopefully the Dodgers will win it all. It's going to be a tough road though.

Have a great day.

Better

Well the weekend turned out better than expected. My friend still has her situation to deal with, but she is letting God be in control of the situation. Sometimes that's a lot easier said than done. We just need to have Faith that He IS in control, and allow Him to take care of the situation. We need to place Him on the throne of our lives and take ourselves down off of that throne. It's a hard one, and I'm not the best example of doing that, so she and I can both use any and all prayers toward keeping our eyes on Jesus. Thanks.

Now on the USC Football, and Dodger Baseball. Yes! USC beat the Oregon Ducks this weekend. It started out ugly, but the Trojans finally got their act together and looked like the team they can be. They even moved up one spot in the polls to #8. Fight On!

The Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs 3-1 to move on to the National League Finals. Yes! The "worst" team in the National League playoffs as far as records go, beat the "best" team in the playoffs (As far as records go) Hopefully this will give the Dodgers some confidence and momentum, and they will win the next series. They now have to take on the Philadelphia Phillies. Go Dodger Blue!

Hockey season starts this week too. My team is perpetually in a rebuilding year, so we'll see how they do. I don't expect much, but I'm not a "fair weather" fan. Go LA Kings! I don't change teams just because they are doing better than another one. (Anaheim Ducks, and Angel's fans, Not all, but there are some that blow with the wind, and you know who you are. If you've been an Angel's fan or a Duck's fan, and stuck with your team through it all, this is not you.) Don't get me wrong. I root for the Angel's too, but the Dodgers are my team. I'm really not an American League fan. Not a fan of the DH in the MLB. I like the fact the a manager has to think in the National League. "Do I keep the pitcher that is doing great in, or do I pull him for a pinch hitter" That kind of thinking. It's strategy, and I don't think an American League manager has to think as much as a National League manager. One sport I really don't like is Basketball, sorry guys, just not my thing. Oh well enough of what I think, it doesn't matter anyway.

Have a great week, Klang

Rough Weekend

It's already a rough weekend and it just started. Got some troubling news about a friend and her situation. It really saddened my heart. Hopefully it will resolve itself in a few weeks. We're praying. Her blog is on my list if you want to check it out. It's Ibeshell. Please keep her and her family in your prayers. HANG IN THERE SIS!

As for the rest of the weekend.... The USC game and the Dodger game are at the same time, so the last channel feature on the remote is going to be getting a workout. Fight On! SC and Go Dodger Blue!

Up 2-0

Yes the Dodgers won again tonight. They're up 2 games to none in the best of 5 series. The next 2 games are at Dodger Stadium. Go Blue!

Go Blue!

That's Dodger Blue for those of you that were thinking Michigan. I'm not a Michigan Wolverines fan. Remember, I'm a USC Trojans fan.

I'm a Dodger fan too, and the Dodgers won the first game of the playoffs against the Cubs at Wrigley. YES!!! Wow, to be a Dodger fan and see them win a playoff game. It feels great! The Dodgers have (up until this game) only won 1 playoff game in the last 20 years. So this is a big deal for us. Now the Dodgers need to keep up the pressure and win again today. Then go home up 2 games to none. We can only hope. The Cubs are a good team, so it's going to be tough to do.

Went to my youngest daughters volleyball game tonight. This is the first year she has ever played volleyball, and she made the team. She doesn't play much, but with practice, she'll get better. I'm proud of her though, she made the team.

My other daughter (Phoenix Phlyer) is getting ready to apply to colleges. (Yippy!, how are we going to pay for that?) I'm really proud of her too. She's writing a book, and wants to major in English. Then be an English teacher. To help others to learn, to me that is very noble.

My wife is writing a story on her blog. (Sheesh-o-Phlip....) It has started out great, and I've told her that she needs to write a fantasy novel. Check it out.

Well that's about it for now. Have a great day, and Go Dodger Blue!
