How MLS or Major League Soccer can overtake baseball and hockey

 It is possible for MLS (Major League Soccer) to overtake MLB (Major League Baseball) in popularity given the arrogance and foolishness and greed of the baseball owners and commissioner. However they would need to aggressively market their stars to the public in the way that the NBA markets Stephen Curry, Giannis, Lebron, Jokic and Embiid. I don’t know if they are willing to do that. If so then they will surpass baseball ⚾️ and hockey 🏒 and be third behind football and basketball in the USA.

Why we are lucky to be here

 This should probably be called,”Why We Are Blessed to be Here”. Despite all that has happened in the last 27-30 months and even the two terms of Obama, we are blessed to be in the United States 🇺🇸. Let’s take a look at other places around the world which are alleged democratic countries.

Canada under Justin Trudeau has turned into a quasi dictatorship. He and his government are running roughshod over peoples liberties all in the name of public health because of COvid 19.

Britain and other European countries are in economic distress. The Boris Johnson led government will probably collapse in a year or two and then Labour will Take over. That is not a healthy sign.

Many of the South American countries are quasi dictatorship similar to Canada. You really want to live there (not vacation in Rio do Janiero )?

Happy July 4th and Independence Day.

American Exceptionalism racist?

 Some fool who I shouldn’t mention but I read his column  in a blog called Above The Law, on the racist origins of American Exceptionalism said that it’s racist and authoritarian white Christian patriarchal rule. Anyway I shouldn’t be surprised given the fact that the author is a) a Seattle native b) went to Ball State University  and c) lived in China for 3 years. He must think that the rest of the world 🌍 should be like China and North Korea 🇰🇵. Why this blog that is for people in my profession of law is so progressive and one dimensional is beyond me. 

Makes me proud and glad to be a religious Jew where I have a higher power to thank and other standards to live by. Shabbat Shalom.
