Great question, Ken!! Must be nice to earn all of that money for doing nothing for it.

Ashton Jeanty signed a 4 year, $35,895,812 contract with the Las Vegas Raiders, including $22,746,044 signing bonus, $35,895,812 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $8,973,953. In 2025, Jeanty will earn a base salary of $840,000, a signing bonus of $22,746,044 and a workout bonus of $3,220, while carrying a cap hit of $6,529,731 and a dead cap value of $35,899,032. As of week 4: Rushing yards 282 Rushing average 4.1 Rushing touchdowns 2 Receptions 7 Receiving yards 20 Receiving touchdowns 2 Jeanty’s productivity seems to not match what he’s being paid by the Raiders. Perhaps Mark Davis is richer than I give him credit for. GO COWBOYS!!

Anything can happen, especially in MLB. Dodgers at home are no joke. Dodgers will beat the Brewers!!

Pace is important; as in everything, it has its place. Moreover, all of the other elements must be considered, especially said the technique being executed. That’s why kata isn’t a dance; it’s elements can be quite effective. That’s why we drill the tar out of the three K’s; they open other avenues of maturing one’s techniques.

2-4 Raiders 20 and 1-5 Titans 20 2-3-1 Cowboys 27 and 3-5 Panthers 30 FINALLY… My wife’s Raiders won a game…and at home. No big reason to celebrate because look at who the Raiders faced…the Titans. Let’s see how the Raiders do against the hosting Chiefs next week. My Cowboys almost won…the Cowboys almost got the monkey off their back…the Cowboys almost made sense. The Cowboys are full of “ALMOST” this and ALMOST that. Let’s see if my Cowboys can ALMOST beat the hosting Commanders next week.

They both should be to the wire!! My WS prediction: Blue Jays VS Dodgers….Dodgers win in 6

Can the Panthers do a 3-Peat?!?

This afternoon I watched the original Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein. Those were the good old monster movies.

Pace of any form are flexible to somewhat of a degree. Look at WKF and the like tournaments, the given pace has given pauses throughout. Normally, said pauses don’t last as long as we see in the WKF and the like, and I believe that the competitors longer than normal pauses are more for the dramatic effect.

No!! She’s a diehard Raiders fan through and through!! She’s ready to have Carroll’s head in a platter!! Watch her Raiders win when they host my Cowboys next month.

Here I sit watching the Raiders VS Colts with my wife. Games in the 2nd quarter at the 2 minute warning with the score Raiders 3 and Colts 14. Colts defense is doing their job unlike the Raiders and the Colts offense is doing their job unlike the Raiders. Raiders punter was roughed by the Colts but no flag…Colts place kicker roughed by the Raiders but they go a flag. Raiders get one of the best head coaches in Carroll, a RB in Jentry, a new GM, and whatever else and the Raiders are not any better so far than last year when they ended 4-13!! My wife says she’ll be happy if her Raiders end up one game better, 5-12, than last year. I tried my best to stifle my laughter the best I could at my wife’s prediction. Ouch!!! With :20 seconds remaining in the 2nd quarter, Colts score another TD…Colts 20 and Raiders 3. Raiders new plan…never find the end zone…just field goals. My Cowboys VS Jets with :57 seconds in the 2nd quarter with the score Cowboys 17 and Jets 3. PS: Raiders just missed their 57 yard field goal with :02 seconds left…so much for my Raiders field goal prediction!!

It’ll be a very interesting NHL season!!

I just want to mention that this story is NOT true. I sincerely apologize for having not have taking the necessary time to find out if the story was or wasn’t true.

Someone who has a lot of money, which leaves me way way way way out.

My wife is not a happy camper with her Raiders, who lost to the visiting Bears 25-24. Imho, the game was lost in the last 2:00 minutes of the game. Raiders rushing was incredible for the whole entire game. However, the Raiders still can’t get out of their own way and this was quite apparent with costly turnovers, mental lapses, and a blocked field goal in the final minute. All in all, Raiders threw away a game that they should’ve won. Jeanty had an excellent and outstanding game. Raiders struggled with coverage, defense faltered, Meyers' mistakes, Smith's turnover parade, and a blocked field goal in the final seconds, and the meltdown was complete. The season’s not going to get better for the Raiders. 1-3 Raiders travel to the hosting 3-1 Colts next week. Poor Raiders!! GO COWBOYS!!

I just checked WWE Wrestlemania, and a ticket at section 326, corner, $341 and a ticket at section 338, middle, $1,744. Nose bleed section 436 costs $953. 2-Day Pass in Section A4, on the floor that faces the main camera is $15,019!! Give me a break!! Someone’s lost their mind!! Anything, except UNLV football games, at Allegiant Stadium will got you a small fortune!! The powers that be get away with charging high prices because some fans have more money than they’ll ever spend in a life time!!

I was amongst the unhappy fans about Goodell’s SB announcement. It’s their product and they’ve the right to market it any way they feel fit to. Money speaks in volumes and is the root of evil. Putting SB on a PPV is as evil as it gets. I suppose only the rich are to enjoy PLE and not anyone else. How rich do the rich need to be?!? There’s no affordable PLE sports and entertainment in Las Vegas, or any where else!!

Whenever learning a new kata/etc., I always went one step/movement at a time until muscle memory kicked in. I’d do sections over and over and over before moving to the next sections, making sure to do the previous sections, and then flow into the next section(s). To decide each section I’d section out said embusen. For example, in Pinan Shodan, Shizentai stance, then turn to the left into a Neko-Ashi/Soto-Uke, Tetsui-Uchi, Shizentai stance/Tetsui-Uchi…that’s section 1…so on and so forth per each section(s). Afterwards, I’d do said Kata as it was taught to me with emphasis on breath, posture, focus, timing, speed, so on and so forth.

That’s no joke!! I once I took it upon myself to wash my own gi when I was a JBB. The results were catastrophic. I put quite a lot of bleach in the load to insure my gi would be sparkling white. What I got was not what I expected. My gi was white, for sure, but it fell apart. Needless to say, my mom banned me from her laundry room for life. If you use bleach, exercise caution by reading the instructions and warnings found on the bleach bottle.

Interesting how you frame your question. Depending on whom one asks, TKD and Karate are quite similar, especially when tournament sparring is concerned. To answer your question, I’m of the opinion that the karate black belt that’s a green belt in TKD, and it’s a closed tournament, I’d say that the karate black belt, to be fair to the green belt division, should enter the black belt division. Maybe it’s just me but for integrity sake, the karate black belt should speak to the arbitrator about this concern. But that might not be necessary especially if said tournament only asks for years of training experience, and therefore, places said competitor according to that criteria.

Seeing that it’s a TKD tournament, and that student has a green belt in TKD, I’d say that that student should wear a green belt, but at the same time, that student should inform the Arbitrator that they have a black belt in Judo, for integrity sake, and allow the Arbitrator to make the proper decision.

Absolutely!! I would’ve also banned him from said tournament that he tried to cheat. Earned a black belt, enter said tournament as a black belt. Anything else is cheating all across the board!! Cheating?!? Yes!! Why?!? Anyone who’s earned a black belt and enters a MA tournament in any other division other than black belt is cheating the under black belt competitors as well as the hosting tournament by cheating all concerned.

After what appeared to be a promising season for my wife’s Raiders and my Cowboys, reality reared its ugly head. Raiders lost again today against the hosting Commanders who had a commanding effort for the final score 41-24. As for now, the Raiders are 1-2-0. Raiders will host the 1-2-0 Bears on September 28, 2025. Cowboys lost again today against the hosting Bears who mauled the Cowboys relentlessly to the final score of 31-14. As for now, the Cowboys are 1-2-0. Cowboys will face the hosting Packers on September 28, 2025. Regular season just started but the Raiders and the Cowboys are not any better off no matter who they’ve added to their organization’s. GO COWBOYS!!
