Sunday Flotsam and Jetsam
Miscellaneous thoughts and observation.
When people wonder how Amazon Prime could pay $100 million just for an NFL game on Black Friday remember that Amazon reportedly has $64 billion in cash reserves. That buys a lot of Black Friday football games... Analysis true (and rightfully so)… Meant to mention that I wish former Bruins goalie Andy Moog nothing but the best as he battles cancer... Also meant to say that I fully support current NHL goalie Marc-Andre Fleury who wore a mask supporting Native Americans and his family for the Minnesota Wild. What ever the fine - it was worth it... Have a rule the the worse the word of mouth about a movie is - the more ads you will see. That's why I was surprised not to see any ads for The Marvels on X but then I learned Disney is boycotting the platform. Win, win for many fans of the original MCU like me. Think many fans of the original MCU use X regularly. This is just another example of cutting off your nose to spite your face or put another way, "go woke - go broke"... Tough to argue this is wrong... I support Dana White in kicking out Peloton from all UFC training facilities because they demanded a podcast episode of RFK Jr. with Theo Von be taken down. This isn't about politics - its about censorship and like I just said "go - woke go broke." They’re a brand who’s forgotten their main business purpose... Boston icon Tom Larson, who recently passed, shaves off his beard when the Bruins won the Stanley Cup. Was a big fan of Larson with TV 38's broadcast of the Bruins and The Movie Loft... Who knew? There’s roughly 36 million Irish-Americans which is roughly 10% of the US population. Meanwhile Ireland only has a population of 5 million… This was cool… Have to say that Michigan looked pretty convincing in beating Ohio State yesterday. The question now become if Jim Harbaugh does leave for the NFL do the Wolverines just give the head coaching job to Sherrone Moore? Meanwhile former Notre Dame coach Lou Holtz wants to know where Buckeyes coach Ryan Day’s at…
