Good morning, Sroock's Books sympathizers.
We awake to sore ankles on both feet. We see the doctor this morning. We are skeptical. Doctors, takes 'em 8 years to get through college. What do they know?* Wish us luck.
The temps begin in an autumnal manner but will end in a summer manner. Where's our Autumn, damn it!
We maintain that the parameters of Trump's alleged Gaza deal are acceptable. Bibi and Donald meet today to talk things over. Also, don't forget this war is bigger than the hostages and Gaza. Here's a great piece from Israel Radar about Houthi plans to invade Israel. Don't think they can't do it. That's October 6th thinking. Israel is fighting a long war that's going to last a long time. This Israel is gone.
Reoccupying Gaza and being responsible for it in any way is dumb. Resettling Israelis there is madness.
Mayor Eric Adams is dropping out of the race. We'd prefer him, actually. Is Adams' leaving the race enough to put Cuomo over the top? We don't believe so. If GOP Curtis Sliwa dropped out Cuomo might win. But a lot of those Adams voters will go to Mamdani, you know. We don't know...we don't know. Exit question: Can one vote None-of-the-Above?
Oh well. Under no circumstances, no circumstances whatsoever would we vote for Killer Andy C. He filled the nursing homes with Covid positive patients and waged war against the state's Jewish community. NYC deserves Zohran Mamdani. This blog renews its call for New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy to drop the Hudson River crossings. Keep New Yorkers out of New Jersey.
Monday morning Quarterback...Giants' rookie QB Jaxon Dart didn't die. Congrats. This blog cautions fans to temper their excitement.
Mrs. Stroock's Eagles won a game they had no business winning. Oh well. There are no style points in football. The Eagles have some offensive issues to work out. Hint: the entire league knows they're going to hand the ball off to Saquon Barkley early. Do something different, or Jason Garrett said last night.
The Cowboy's defense still can't stop anybody. Last night's game against the Packers ended in a 40-40 tie. We were disappointed. Like sex without the finish. At 1-2-1 the Cowboys are what their record says they are.
And the Mets lost yesterday 4-0 to the Marlins, completing their epic collapse. We're reminded of the Mets' all-time, epic, 2007 collapse. What can one say? Another bitter winter awaits for the Amazin's. There's a lot wrong with that team, but slugging first basemen Pete Alonso ain't one of 'em. And he's a free agent. The Mets would be fools not to bring Alonso back.
Beat the Mets. Beat the Mets. Step right up and defeat the Mets. Bring your kiddies. Bring your dog. Come on out and eat like a hog.
NL MVP: Dodgers' superman Shohei Ohtani edges, slightly, Mrs. Stroock's Phillies' Kyle Schwarber.
AL MVP: Yankee's slugger Aaron Judge wins his second MVP award, beating Mariner's Catcher Cal Raleigh, who hit a most impressive 60 homeruns. Raleigh had a great season, but he DH'd about a third of the time, and Judge won the batting title.
...or so we would like to see.
Sales are in the crapper, which is our own damn fault for not being able to finish Thatcher's War.
The new nuke novel is coming along fine. We know why the young married couple make their decision. But we're still not quite sure how they get to it.
*We are also an adherent of the, 'I wasn't sick till I saw the doctor' school of medical thought. Thank god we're not Canadian. With our foot issues, they'd send us right to MAID.
