The Jinx

I saw the jinx coming! Why did I bet on the San Antonio Spurs and win money in game №3 of the 2026 NBA finals? I saw an announcement in the news several days before game №3 that set off an alert on my antenna.

I Loved NY Knicks All Year

Why did I bet on San Antonio Spurs and  win in game №3? Games №1&2 in San Antonio showed Knicks’ fans going crazy in New York watching the games on screens outside of Madison Square Garden and around the whole city. Excitement was wild; there was no way to stop the momentum. Right? No; bringing in the prez to MSG, closing down the party for 10 blocks around the stadium, forcing fans to have to wait 2 hours in line to get in, shutting down traffic… ended the vibe. I immediately put down some money on the Spurs. I was a great fan of the Knicks all season until they laid that jinx on them in game №3.

I Also Loved Giants

Who is correct? There are many opinions being vocalized on both sides: Former NFL MVP Cam Newton delivered a nuanced breakdown of why politics and the quarterback position are a dangerous combination in today’s NFL.

I want to wish Happy Father’s Day to my dad, his father (Ferdinand Jr. and Sr.) and my mom’s father (Sidney Cates Jr). Ferdinand Jr. and Sr. took me fishing often when I was growing up. Sidney gave me a guitar upon which I learned chords and began my life-long music quest. My dad bought me a trumpet when I was 6 upon which I also had a life-long quest. Happy Father’s Day to all fathers.

I Wuv the Lakers

Ferdie@ferdiewerdie2013 Playoffs NOTE: this was posted in 2013. The LAKERS were swept by the Spurs that year. The Hornet were last in their division that year. The Pelicans were last in their division this year. The Pelicans will be last in their division forever, unless they get a new coach. I will WUV the Lakers before the Pelicans climb from the cellar as long as they keep this “bottom-feeder” coach.

@Hornets >>The doggone #Lakers have plopped their butts in a seat to the #bigdance. Plenty games are left, but they sat their big butts at the #8thSeed position for now. If these guys can hold onto a seat to the dance, I believe that they will be dangerous. Look how far they’ve come this year.

Why did I address this tweet to the Hornets? Because they have disappointed me very much this year. So, I might just become a Lakers fan for the rest of the year. What choice do I have? Also, I do not plan to wait around all off-season just to watch the Pelicans have another sub-par season next year. I do not trust Hornets/Pelicans coach Monty Williams with the family jewels. His decision-making has been very suspect this year. In my opinion he is a lousy son-of-a-beoyonggg.

Thus, I will begin cheering for the dang Lakers in order for me to maintain my sanity. What could be worst? Besides that, if the Pelicans hold onto coach Monty and have another lousy year next year, I believe that it will be years before the Pelicans become truly meaningful in the NBA. I am a N’Awlins boy, but I have to respect how the Lakers slid their tails into a party seat after how their season started off. Remember that both the Lakers and the Brooklyn Nets cut their losses early in the season and hired new coaches. Now, both teams are headed to the playoffs. hahaha >>to the New Orleans HorPelicants.
