Rafael Nadal? ‘I made sure the #1 ranked in the world player was kicked out of the tournament’
The Australian government made a mockery of their country, the pandemic, and the tournament. They used Djokovic as a political pawn, and his vaccination status, as an excuse to keep him out of the tournament and eventually kicking him out of the country.
Still, the country is run like a penal colony and the cases of COVID-19 remain at their highest despite of their vaccination mandates and lockdowns. Spare me the outrage.
Rafael Nadal may have won the Australian Open, but without the #1 ranked player in the world, Novak Djokovic, the victory will be seen by many as a fraud and with a huge asterisk next to it.
The Australian government may have won the ‘Woke War’, but they lost their prestige with it.
After getting a break on 17, McIlroy hits an awesome drive down the 18 hole, at the Emirates Golf Club, Majlis Golf Course, on the final round of the Dubai Desert Classic.
In the clubhouse is veteran Richard Bland and golf phenom Viktor Hovland sitting at a comfortable -12 under par and waiting to either, go on a playoff or the airport.
McIlroy was -12 under par with over 260 yards into the par 5. A birdie would have done the trick at best, and at worst, a par would have taken him into a playoff with Bland and Hovland.
Unfortunately for him, none of those two scenarios came to fruition. He bogeyed 18 after spraying his second shot into the water and missing a par putt.
What what was he thinking? Did his caddie, Harry Diamond, told him what was going on? Did he knew all he needed was a birdie to win outright or a par to join the playoff?
In typical McIlroy fashion, he went out in flames. I felt sorry for the guy, after all, I am a golfer and I have played at the Emirates Club many times. I know how difficult is to clear that water, and at over 260 yards is even tougher.
I know the player is responsible for making the shot, but I put a lot of the blame on his caddie. I would have insisted on the layup and dealt with the ass-chewing after the victory champagne.
This was one of the worst decisions I have witnessed. A heartbreaker for sure.
Personally, I think is time for Rory McIlroy to hire a real caddie. I am sure is fun to have your best buddy in your bag, but when millions, and legacy, are on the line, always go with a professional.
At the end, Viktor Hovland raised the trophy by defeating Richard Bland after birding the first playoff hole.
The Biden’s Administration Search For The Next “Black Woman” Supreme Court Justice

The Biden administration could not wait for an official retirement announcement from Supreme Court Justice Stephen Bryer to go on media outlets and announce to the world that if you are not black or a woman, you will not be considered to fill the Supreme Court vacancy, regardless of qualifications.
This is how we do things in this country in 2022. Forget about qualifications and experience, if you have the complexion for the connection, that is all it matters.
But this is not new. A supervisor of mine, who happened to be black, lost his service pistol, not once, but twice, and he still got promoted.
Another black supervisor had an accidental weapon discharge in the office while conducting an inspection, again, nothing happened to him. In today’s world that’s par for the course.
I have always put a premium on experience and qualifications and when I was working I always sought out ways to improve my knowledge and on-the-job experience.
It always paid off for me, I got promoted because of my experience and knowledge. That I happened to be Hispanic was an afterthought because I could back it up with my work.
Joe Biden handcuffed himself when he promised he would fill a Supreme Court vacancy with a “black woman.” Nothing wrong with that, but for someone who claims everyone is racist but him, to cast away everyone else solely on the color of their skin, well, that is racist.
In pure Democratic Party fashion; if you are male, Asian, white, lesbian, transgender, binary, and all those other unscientific, but socially acceptable human designations, do not waste your time, you will not be considered.
If you are a conservative black woman forget about it. And if you are a conservative black woman with outstanding qualifications, no way in Democratic Party hell, will you get a phone call.
It is a shame this is the current situation in our society. Everything, from education to voting has been dumbed down in the name of so-called equality.
I have never used my ethnicity as an excuse for not getting a job. If I did not get a job it is because I was not qualified for it, period. I am sick of people using their skin color or ethnic origin as an excuse when things do not go their way or to demand things they are not entitled to.
The Biden administration has already handicapped whomever the black woman is. At the end of the day, she will be just that, the black woman in the Supreme Court of the United States that Joe promised the Democratic Party base.
I didn’t know Howard Stern still a ‘thing.’ I haven’t heard or seen Stern in over a decade, who knew. Anyhow, if you get your medical advice from this clown, Covid-19 is the least of your problems.
In another sign of Woke Derangement Syndrome, Disney apologizes to Peter Dinklage for re-making Snow White, well, with seven dwarfs? Can’t make this stuff up. Go woke or go broke!
This is the America we live in. People calling to boycott Starbucks because they chose to respect the Supreme Court of the United States.
I don’t care for Starbucks or their college graduates who serve their coffee, but I respect the fact they understand we live in a country where the rule of law remains in effect. They may reverse their course, after all, it is Starbucks, but until then, kudos to Starbucks.
There you have it friends. It can only get better…
