My Tua Take: I hope the Dolphins gett destroyed over that they did from top to bottom.

The Dolphins are a nihilistic organization. Owner Ross openly pushed for Flores to tank the year. Flores refused, so Ross fired him.

They bring in this clown McDaniels, who strikes me as a puppet for ownership no matter how much the media blows smoke up his ass.

Last week against Buffalo, the Milano hit was serious and that whiplash on the turf was serious. He was wobbly, his legs weren't wrong, and he was holding his head. Clearly they lied about passing concussion protocol, all for a victory in an early season game. Then they trot him out there on three days rest after the game played six inches from Hell.

They lied on the injury report, they lied to the media, and they probably told Tua he would be playing because, even though Ross is "suspended," his words will still make it to the coach's desk.

So they did. . .and did you see the sack that knocked him out of the game? His body froze. His fingers stretched out disjointedly in an pattern most seizure and stroke patient have. Tua was led to the slaughter all for a W. Tua was used the way most NFL teams use their show monkeys. . .grind them until they break, then off to the glue factory. Usually people get kissed before they get fucked, but not NFL players.

The sad truth is when this happens, no one really cares at next game's kickoff. Alex Smith, Joe Theisman, Drew Bledsoe, RG3, Teddy Bridgewater, Willis McGahee, Bo Jackson, Tua. All played until their broke with catastrophic injuries, all shown the dog food factory.

Player safety is as much a joke to the NFL as that useless Rooney Rule. When it comes down to it, it's a business and the business of business is to make money. Tua being trotted out there was just a symptom of the NFL's terminal illness of Greed while worshipping the God of the Almighty Dollar. The Dolphins are going to have another scandal on their hands. That's the truth. And it couldn't happen to a more classless, worthless franchise.

I hope they lose the rest of the year and everyone loses their jobs over this. . .the GM down to the assistant to the assistant coach over cleaning jock strap's assistant. All for a few more dollars in profit.

Sad how valueless people are. . .but we should have seen it coming, especially when the Personnel Department was changed to Human Resources, and now is called Human Capital. We are no different than a machine in the eyes of businesses. . .and the NFL is probably the worst of the bunch. I hope you recover, Tua, but I would understand if doctors and your family tell you to retire.

Your organization killed you on Thursday. . .maybe you should return the favor by killing their chances this year. There are things more important than football. Potentially permanent neurological damage is one of them.

I see the Count of Mostly Crisco has been oddly quiet the past couple of days.

Apparently, weaseling out of a presidential level fraud, theft, and felonies is harder to get out of than just giving a wink, nod, and scream witch hunt.

Sociopath's downfall is always their arrogance, hubris, chutzpah, and overwhelming desire for spotlight.

Update on my wife and our separation due to COVID and her Green Card part 3 (Thx BtA)

Well, it's been quite a few days.

Tuesday, I left Hong Kong, got my 10th COVID test in seven days (overkill much?) and bored my Cathay Pacific plane from HKG to Nanjing.

I was terrified because of the fractured relationship between the US and China, I would be denied entry into China the same way my wife was denied in Seattle. I didn't sleep for two days except for an occasional short nap that I was jerked awake in cold sweats.

I get the immigration counter. They take my passport and start asking questions, like why I have a Q (family) visa instead of a Z (work), X (student), or L (tourist) visa. Thank God I can speak fluent Mandarin.

I told them I went home because of family and health issues. My wife was denied her American Green Card three times and about what happened at SEATAC. I told them I just wanted to return to the wife I hadn't seen in 26 months.

They were shocked at what I said, told me my Chinese was amazing, asked me if I would be staying with me wife, and if I understood the quarantine policy. I answered yes to all their questions.

Then the entry stamp came in and they stamped me in. I exhales relief. They handed me back my passport, smiled, and told me to enjoy my time with my wife in a week.

I walked in, got my bag, walked into the bathroom and sat in a stall. I pulled out my passport, looked at the entry stamped and openly sobbed for almost five minutes. I was back. . .and it was only a short time before we were back together.

I am now 40 miles from her in quarantine. They put me in an apartment and, respecting my Kosher and diabetic concerns, have gotten me my three squares a day. It is currently day three of seven. The meals are Chinese and are more than I can eat at one time. Today I had Lan Zhou La Mian, which is all beef, lamb, or chicken and Halal.

Four more days and I am done with this. I go back to my wife and prepare for our move to Beijing where I will be a social studies teacher at one of the most posh and prestigious high schools in the country, run and sponsored by the #1 university in China, Tsinghua University. This school is a place Americans are told by the embassy to send their children when they are in China and is 50-50 Chinese/Foreign mix, with students from 26 countries. They will give me a two bedroom condo on campus, a base pay of $75K a year gross, and almost $15K in benefits, including gifts for my marriage and childbirth, performance, longevity, retirement plans, health insurance for my entire family, travel, relocation, and shipping allowances, and opportunities to publish my novels as there is a publishing company through Tsinghua.

It's all over. Thank you, BtA, for updating DU. My next post about this will be reuniting with my wife and pictures of our reuniting.

DU has helped me more than I can say. You've helped me get back her and get back my sanity. Words cannot express my undying gratefulness for all of you.

GOP nominee jokes about plot to kidnap Mich. governor

Source: NBC via AOL

Tudor Dixon, Michigan’s GOP nominee for governor, joked about a 2020 kidnapping plot against rival Gov. Gretchen Whitmer during a pair of campaign events Friday, sparking swift denunciations from Democrats.

“The sad thing is that Gretchen will tie your hands, put a gun to your head and ask if you are ready to talk. For someone so worried about getting kidnapped, Gretchen Whitmer sure is good at taking business hostage and holding it for ransom,” Dixon said at one event.

Later that day, in describing a recent appearance by Whitmer, Dixon said, “The look on her face was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, this is happening. I’d rather be kidnapped by the FBI.”

Well, if Agent Orange can publicly mock a handicapped man, I guess joking about a felony is okay too.

Oz releases health records to spotlight Fetterman's stroke

Source: AP via AOL

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — Dr. Mehmet Oz, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate in Pennsylvania, released his health records as he maneuvers to keep questions about Democratic rival John Fetterman’s recovery from a stroke front and center in the hotly contested campaign.

Dr. Rebecca Kurth in New York City wrote in a four-page letter that she found the 62-year-old heart surgeon-turned-TV celebrity to be in “excellent health" in an annual checkup Thursday.

The letter noted that Oz has a total cholesterol level that is “borderline elevated” but can be addressed by diet, and referenced that in 2010 he had a polyp — a growth that sometimes can become cancerous — removed from his colon. An electrocardiogram — a test that records electrical signals in the heart to detect heart problems — he had Thursday came out normal.

“Your examination is healthy, and the blood tests are favorable,” Kurth wrote. She recommended no medication.

Update on my wife and our separation due to COVID and her Green Card part 2

I made it to Hong Kong tonight. Three day quarantine, then I fly from Hong Kong to Lukou Int'l Airport in Nanjing to do seven days. On October 3rd in the US, I should be back together with my wife.

I will send pictures of our reunion after over two miserable years apart.

Thank you, DU, for keeping me straight. This really is a family. Yes, I had a nervous breakdown last year and diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder compounded by un-diagnosed diabetes. But the medication for both has been working.

Notice to the NFL: Buffalo came to kick ass and chew bubblegum, but they're out of bubblegum

72 for. 17 against in the first two games of the seasons, knocking off the Super Bowl winners and the AFC #1 seed.
It's not fair right now. Buffalo is almost unstoppable at this moment.

Hey-ey-ey-ey. Let's go Buffa-lo!!!
