Today DaTechGuy off DaRadio comes at a special earlier time 11 AM EST vs our normal 3 PM EST.

This is because due to the horrible Trump economy the volume at my evening job is so high that not only were we asked to come in early Wednesday and Thursday to help keep up but we’ve been asked to come in on our day off for an extra shift.

Today we’re going to talk about the opening of the NFL season and the outrage from democrats and sports media that fans didn’t want to be charged money to watch a protest. We’ll also touch on 9/11 and to be sure I’ll comment on the election and the Trump economy that’s forcing me to push up the podcast 4 hours today.

You can watch the podcast live here. As usual last week’s podcast is a place holder till about 5 or 10 min before I start:

As always if you like the podcast please give it a thumbs up.

Odd favor to ask / repeat

Apparently the replacement wiper motor compatible with my 1999 Buick LeSabre available to my mechanic don’t have a pulse board which regulates where they stop (those usually come with such moters)

He’s been unable to find one and thanks to the rules of inspection in MA unless I get that replaced by the end of next month my car will fail inspection and I’ll need to buy a new one

So rather than a bleg for the 4 grand for a new used car I’m blegging for a pulse board for a 1999 Buick LeSabre or a working wiper motor for a 1999 Buick LeSabre with a pulse board on. If you have one I’d be happy to buy it.

Michael Forest Reinoehl has now proved, without a shadow of a doubt, that when wanted for crimes of violence or any other the Rittenhouse methodTM of not getting shot by police is the way to go.

Let’s put the awkward issues of logistics aside and talk tactics, though professionals always think logistics while amateurs only think tactics.

As a general rule you should always read Kurt Schlichter, he’s smart, he’s funny, and he tears apart the left but this is the most informative piece he’s ever written

FINALLY, a reader emailed, “Hi Don. A few weeks ago I realized that BLM stands for Bitter Little Marxists

Via Don Surber

Analysis True.

 NFL shouldn’t be propping up a criminal rapist when the organization itself has a domestic violence problem.

Via Victory Girls Blog

Actually given the criminal and domestic violence history in the NFL it’s actually pretty on brand.

 Voters should not be deprived of their constitutional right to vote nor should their vote be cancelled by an illegally cast vote.

Via Right Wing Granny

Since the day after the election of 2016 I’ve been saying Trump needs to go after voter fraud.

Can anyone deny that all the terrible things we’ve seen this year have supernatural sources? Well, I suppose they could, but I adamantly disagree.

Via Baldilocks

I think the Democrat/Antifa/Media Marxist left aren’t the real enemy, they just work for him.

A Bidenball MLB / NBA Anecdote

Take this story for what it’s worth.

My workweek for my day (well evening) job is Sunday to Thursday and as my wife had already left for work and I hadn’t had a chance to go shopping I stopped by a local restaurant (not a chain) around 2:30 PM to have a bite before I went in.

Even though I don’t listen to the woke sports (or Bidenball as I call it) anymore I still tend to listen to sports talk radio on the way into work and just change the station if a game is on.

I turned on the 1st station 93.7 and the Red Sox were in the 4th inning so I switched to the 2nd station. On the 2nd station the Celtics 76ers playoff game was on and although the Celtics had a chance to clinch with a win I turned the radio off rather than listen. Just then I pulled into the Restaurant parking lot.

There are seven large screen TV’s in the place and on game days they are invariably on sports. On a day with Both the Redsox and Celtics on you would normally see 3 TV on the Celtics and 3 on the Redsox with one on either ESPN or Golf. As the Redsox are horrible this year and the Celtics games were playoff games I expected to see a 3-2 ratio with one TV for Golf & ESPN or maybe even 4-1.

When I sat down I was shocked to see that all seven TV’S were showing golf!

Remember there was a Celtics PLAYOFF game in progress and not a single set was tuned to it.

‘More importantly it is my experience at this place that if a patron wants a TV on a sport that isn’t on, the staff invariably will put one set on the desired channel/ They’ve done it for me for Red Sox games in years gone by.

But apparently not a single person in the place, and there were more than a few, asked to see the struggling Redsox, nor did a request to watch the Celtics play the Sixers reach the staff’s ears. As I ate my meal I watched as every single set remained on PGA golf until the time I left.

Now you might argue that this is only one bar/restaurant in a blue city in a blue county of one blue state and that’s true. You might say this is completely anecdotal and doesn’t mean it’s a trend and you might be right about that as well..

But I have a feeling that this scene is being repeated in hundreds of restaurants and bars all over the nation and that the various sports league will not realize the extent to which they have chased away their fan bases until it comes time to negotiate TV contracts.

I suspect I will find that a lot of fun.
