COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF AND BOWL RESULTS FROM DECEMBER 1st

NAIA

Morningside MustangsFIRST SEMIFINAL – The MORNINGSIDE COLLEGE MUSTANGS were hosting the defending National Champions – the UNIVERSITY OF SAINT FRANCIS COUGARS. Just as much as the Mustangs were fighting USF they were also fighting their history of playoff chokes in recent years.

After nabbing a quick 21-7 1st Quarter lead Morningside College saw the Cougars pull to 28-14 at Halftime and 28-21 in the 3rd before forcing Overtime with a 28-28 tie to end the 4th. This time the Mustangs didn’t choke and after shutting out USF in the extra session they scored a TD for a 34-28 OT triumph.

Benedictine RavensSECOND SEMIFINAL – In this game the BENEDICTINE COLLEGE RAVENS traveled to take on the KANSAS WESLEYAN UNIVERSITY COYOTES. Not only did this clash end in an Upset but it was an odd tale of two halves. By the break the Coyotes had come back from being down 13-0 in the opening Quarter to trailing the Ravens by a much tighter score of 20-14. Continue reading →

Niagara FallsHODADEION PART 9 – BATTLE WITH A WHIRLWIND – At what is now called Niagara Falls, the demigod Hodadeion stood facing an enormous Dagwanoenyent. Those beings were the ancient whirlwinds so often fought by Iroquois deities.

Dagwanoenyents were enormous, flying humanoid heads with long hair which sliced the air like chainsaw blades as the whirlwinds spun around at great speed. The destruction wrought by Dagwanoenyents was legendary and Hodadeion, the young god of magic regarded the figure floating above him with dread as he stood there on the rocky outcrops at the base of Niagara Falls.    Continue reading →

TRANSGRESS WITH ME: NOVEMBER 29th

Mascot FOUR original pics

Balladeer’s Blog

Yes, it is time once again for another round of Transgress With Me here at Balladeer’s Blog.

** IT’S TIME TO CALL FOR THE PRIVILEGED WHITE ONE PERCENTERS OF HOLLYWOOD AND SILICON VALLEY TO LIVE UP TO THEIR SELF-RIGHTEOUS PREENING AND DONATE ALL BUT TWO MILLION DOLLARS OF THEIR OWN FORTUNES TO FINANCE THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS THEY PRETEND TO CARE ABOUT.

** AS A FOLLOWUP, THIS SHOULD BE DEMANDED OF THOSE SHALLOW POSEURS EVERY TIME THEY PRESUME TO LECTURE THE REST OF THE COUNTRY.

** AN OLD SAYING GOES THAT “THE DISSENTING OPINIONS OF ONE GENERATION BECOME THE PREVAILING VIEWS OF THE NEXT.” THAT IS NO LONGER TRUE SINCE DEMOCRATS INTOLERANTLY TRY TO PRESERVE THEIR EVERY POLITICAL WHIM BY SETTING THEM IN STONE AND DECLARING IT “HATE SPEECH” TO QUESTION THEM.

** THE SUPPOSEDLY “INTOLERANT” DEAD WHITE MALES OF THE PAST RECOGNIZED WHAT THE FASCISTIC POLITICAL LEFT DENIES – THAT FUTURE GENERATIONS SHOULD HAVE THE FREEDOM TO AMEND THE LAWS ACCORDING TO EVOLVING PHILOSOPHIES AND ATTITUDES. INSTEAD THE LEFT INSISTS THEY HAVE “THE ONE TRUE WORLD VIEW” AND THAT THEIR NARROW-MINDED VALUES ARE ENTIRELY AND ETERNALLY “RIGHT.” NOW AND FOREVER. 

** TO SET AN EXAMPLE FOR THE REST OF THE COUNTRY HOLLYWOOD SHOULD IMMEDIATELY SWITCH TO A SOCIALIST SYSTEM IN WHICH ALL THE MONEY MADE IS DISTRIBUTED EVENLY AND NO POSITION EARNS MORE THAN ANY OTHER POSITION. ALL THEIR MANSIONS ARE TO BE USED AS HOUSING FOR THE POOR, TOO. Continue reading →

TEAR-GASSER IN CHIEF BARACK OBAMA

Obama hates childrenIf anyone in the world is still wondering why Fake News is what everybody except Democrats call America’s media then this is another flagrant example. Just like the Democrats’ media outlets tried blaming de facto Third Party President Donald Trump for the family separation policy that OBAMA AND GEORGE W BUSH had followed at our southern border they are playing the same game with the tear gas incident.

With their typical selective outrage and outright lies the anti-Trump fascists are claiming that Border Enforcement’s use of tear gas was “unprecedented.” Wrong again. Or, more accurately, they’re LYING again.

Barack Obama’s Border Enforcement men used tear-gas on illegals – including women and children – TWENTY-SIX TIMES in 2012, TWENTY-SEVEN TIMES in 2013 and 3 more times in 2016. In addition, Obama’s men used pepper spray on illegals of all ages and genders ONE HUNDRED FIFTY ONE TIMES.

And remember Obama using drone strikes on CHILDREN?

Obama I dont alwaysI will say again – President Trump gets gifted with more and more loyalty and support every time the Democrats in the media flagrantly lie and lie and lie like this.

IF YOU’RE ONLY A CASUAL OBSERVER OF THE AMERICAN POLITICAL SCENE YOU CAN’T GO WRONG BY JUST ASSUMING THAT THE CORPORATE MEDIA’S CRITICISM OF PRESIDENT TRUMP IS ALWAYS MISINFORMATION. ALWAYS DIG DEEPER.
