Its rainy season in Ohio. The rains came on and off since yesterday morning. That's when it happened. I began getting dizzy like I were intoxicated. I didn't have any alcohol, I didn't smoke anything but I felt like I was going to fall out all day. Today I went to Statcare, expecting the doctor to diagnose me having an ear infection causing me to have some vertigo. Nope! Who would've thought sinus allergies had me $%^& up!

  Weekly Devotional - Hear the WORD of the LORD / All Dried Up (Message inspired by Min. Gloria Fleming) 9-15-21 Scripture -  The Hand of the  LORD  was upon me, and HE brought me out in the SPIRIT of the  LORD  and set me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones.  HE caused me to pass all around them, and behold, there were very many [human bones] in the open valley; and lo, they were very dry.  And HE said to me, “Son of man, can these bones live?” And I answered, “O LORD GOD, You know.”  Again HE said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘O dry bones, hear the word of the  LORD .’   [Ezekiel 37:1-4]   In 2020, when the Corona-virus outbreak hit, everybody was wearing masks, social distancing and washing their hands with sanitizers multiple times a day. Everything dried up. Schools and businesses shut down; churches were emptied, and hundreds of thousands of people were dying. The carnage was so terrible that bodies were being kept in ice trucks. Fun

It has been a painful last week or so for the GlenOak  High   School   football  team, and the Lake Blue Streaks certainly can relate. The Golden Eagles return to the playing field tonight at home against Lake despite missing several players because of COVID protocols. They canceled last week's game against Fitch after multiple positive tests on the team led to widespread quarantines. Lake endured the same thing a week earlier, having to cancel its Week 2 game against Maple Heights. The Blue Streaks bounced back to beat Akron East 14-2 despite missing a chunk of their roster.

 

 I have dedicated my 3 teams to my late friend Richard Bullock. Richard believed in me so much that I started publicly hearing that I'm the Fantasy Football Guru.
