The regular May 24, 2023 News and Notes

• I urge you to read the two posts below.
• And we lost Tina Turner today in Switzerland.  She was 83.
• We may be headed for violence at Dodger Stadium on Pride Night.  It appears a number of White Right fuckers have scooped tickets to cause trouble.  Mark this down -- one news analyst is already stating they may try to fire this as a "false flag" and blame the Left.
• Angry Dallas fans "treated" their team to a hail of debris Tuesday night during a 4-0 Game 3 loss to the Vegas Golden Knights, making the Western Conference Final 3-0 in Vegas' favor.
• The NBA Conference Finals will go at least one over the minimum.  Boston beat Miami last night in Florida for the first win of the series -- they are down 3-1.
• The A's are now 10-40, run differential -178 (meaning they are losing by over 3 1/2 runs a game on average), and have only scored 180 runs (meaning they've almost given up twice as many as they've scored!).
• The racist taunts against Real Madrid's Vinicius are so pronounced, La Liga, in an unprecedented move, declared them sufficient mitigation to revoke the automatic suspension a red card usually gives.
• The Jeopardy Masters Finals are set:
• Monday Game 1 (Mattea gets the bye):  James gets both Daily Doubles in Double and wins.  A very common refrain.  He was actually deep in third after the first board.  Andrew gets the one point.
• Monday Game 2 (Matt gets the bye):  Mattea gets both Daily Doubles in Double!!  BUT MISSES FINAL and James gets the three and the first finals spot.  Mattea gets the single.
• Tuesday Game 1 (Andrew gets the bye):  Runaway win for James, meaning only one error keeps James from being 9-0 in this tournament.  Mattea gets the single again.
• Tuesday Game 2 (Andrew (1), Mattea (2), Matt (0)):  For the other two spots.  Matt gets both Daily Doubles in Double and runs away for the three points and the second spot in the finals.  Andrew gets the single, and we have a tie.
• Mattea wins the third spot in the Finals with a superior Coryat Score.  Good luck hoping you can get stupid mainstream America to understand the Coryat Score.
• Tonight:  Two games, regular scores count, standard finals:  James, Matt, Mattea.  Total points winner gets a half-million and the Alex Trebek Trophy.
