Dolores O'Riordan died eight years ago today. Such an amazing voice and talent. The song is about violence in Northern Ireland but is applicable to situations today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Muh...

NEW: Jonathan Ross, the ICE thug who murdered Renee Good, was NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL according to police reports. He was taken to the Federal Building. He was NOT INJURED. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Okay, the Texas vs. South Carolina game was ugly. But when 6-6 Madina Okot hit a 3 to give SC the lead for good, I might have yelled loud enough for the neighbors to hear. Adhel Tac, who is from Texas, made some key defensive plays down the stretch.There aren't enough words to praise Raven Johnson.

OMG! I just got internal bleeding from pretending to be hit by a car.

First neighborhood association meeting of the year is at 6:15 tonight, but I'm not going because No. 2 South Carolina plays No. 4 Texas at 6. I will not miss a minute of that! Go Gamecocks!

Just fetched yesterday's mail from the porch and it's colder than a mother-in-law's love out there. But I have to go to out because I need to hit the ATM, the cats are low on kibble & I need to put gas in the car.

Zoomies at 10:49 a.m. There were zoomies at 10:30 p.m. thast lasted 90 minutes. Both cats, both times.

I don't normally watch Chicago PD but I did last night because Chicago actress Amy Morton's character Sgt. Trudy Platt was featured. Morton was so good in show that featured a tough subject-cop suicide. Bravo!

Sophia Wilson back to training five months after giving birth to Gianna.

Sasha Riley feels like an op to undermine credibility. There I said it.

It's 26 degrees but with the wind the "feels like" temp is 16. I already had flannel sheets on the bed, but I added the yellow and white embroidered quilt my late mom used to use. It's under a light comforter. I should be as snug as that proverbial bug in a rug. I bet both cats end up in the bed.

I had one of my favorite meals for dinner. Black beans & rice with salsa & sour cream on the side. Instead of utensils, I scoop every thing up with a tortilla chip. Yum! Of course all those carbs are going to screw up my blood sugar.

From Dawn Staley's practice presser today: 6-7 freshman forward Alicia Tournebize WILL PLAY tomorrow against Texas.

NWSL champion Gotham FC is playing Bayern Munich in a "friendly" match tomorrow. Bayern is the top team in the German Bundesliga. It's a closed session, dammit. Gotham has been training in Spain for two weeks preparing for the FIFA Women's Champion Cup in England in two weeks.

Michele Kang owns the London City Lionesses in the WSL. She also owns the Washington Spirit in the NWSL (American pro league). Her WSL team is trying to sign the best player, Delphine Cascarino, from the San Diego Wave in the NWSL. This bothers me. A lot.

Noel Paul Stookey is the only surviving member of Peter, Paul & Mary. This song needs to be revived for the time in which we live. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXfT...

@flvillager.bsky.social Great post!

She's going to play for Manchester City for what I consider the right reasons: A lifelong desire to play in Europe. If I played soccer I think playing one match at Old Trafford would be heaven.

Already had the coffee in progress when I realized there is no half n half & the milk is expired. I was dreading drinking the coffee black, but it actually is not horrible.

And they wasted all that money on bribing to get to this point.

I post this because I think the Blues have the loudest goal horn in the NHL.

I personally really like the 3x3 format. Love seeing Chelsea Gray pass. And Paige Bueckers has shown what a complete player she is a year out of college.

NEW: The Times got the Fulton County grand jury transcripts. Lindsey Graham told the grand jurors “if you told him Martians came and stole votes, he’d be inclined to believe it.” www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/u...

This is an incredible achievement against a shockingly complex class of diseases. It is a tragedy, though that we have likely created a synthetic plateau on progress through our absolutely horrific gutting of sciences.

Good news Seattle 🗣️ The all-time winningest NWSL coach, Laura Harvey is staying in Seattle through 2028 😏 📸 @reignfc.com

Cutting Social Security in a backhanded way.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Claudette Colvin, whose refusal to move seats on a segregated bus helped spark the civil rights movement, dies at 86.

After years of trying, the St. Loui Cardinals have traded third baseman Nolan Arenado to Arizona. Arenado is an 8-time all-star & made some unreal plays at third. The Cardinals are paying $31 million of his $42 million contract. The Cards only got a 2025 8th round pitcher in return.

Reports out of Columbia,SC, stating Alicia Tournebize, the 6-7 player from France, will make her debut with the second-ranked Gamecocks on Thursday at home against Texas. Can you imagine playing your first college game against the team ranked 4th? I'll believe this when I see it.

This is a great signing. It makes me think the Wave must have known they were losing Delphine Cascarino. Chicago have lost two of the best goal scorers in the NWSL; Ludmila to the Wave and Ally Schlegel to North Carolina.

Larry the Cat, Chief Mouser at Downing Street, London, turns 19. tribune.com.pk/story/258691...

Opened the drapes in the bedroom so the house plants I'm trying to winter over can get some sun. There's a tuxedo cat sitting on the patio table giving itself a bath. Martha, who lives two doors down, feeds a tuxie & my immediate neighbor Stormy feeds it too. Must be the same cat.

Per the soccer website Soccerdonna, San Diego Wave's Delphine Cascarino is in final talks to join London City which plays in the WSL. Cascarino also plays on the French national team. Why are so many Wave player leaving or getting traded? Is room being made to get Cat Macario from Chelsea?

The Civil Right Division has become an absolute joke. The only people whose rights are protected are ICE agents. www.ms.now/news/doj-civ...

Spoiler: Yep! www.cbsnews.com/news/house-d...

She won't be there until June.

Well, dammit. Third night in a row there's 10:30 cat zoomies.

Breaking NYT: The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter. The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status. That is a war crime called "perfidy."

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

Flu is so rampant in many parts of the country, the SEC has suspended the tradition of opponents shaking hands following basketball games. I watched 4 SEC women's games yesterday and none did the handshake. I saw one team wave at their opponents.

I could watch this on an endless loop forever. A'ja Wilson just brings it.

Jenna Nighswonger getting all the love she deserves at Villa Park 🤍 🏟️ 🎥: @avwfc-official.bsky.social

Washington Spirit have traded Narumi Miura to the Utah Royals. I don't get this because Narumi is one of the most dynamic midfielders in the NWSL.Unless they're trying to dump salary.

It appears Sam Coffey is transferring from the NWSL's Portland Thorns to Manchester City (UK) which plays in the Women's Super League. Coffey also is a midfielder for the USWNT. American Jenna Nighswonger has been loaned by Arsenal to Aston Villa (WSL). Nighswonger barely played for Arsenal.

This so needed to happen. Heaps is captain of the USWNT but has been playing in Lyon in France the past few years.

Watching the (18) Ole Miss vs. Mississippi State women's game. Both of these teams are really good. I think both are better than some teams in the top 10.
