  UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE update... & other soccer stuff also... UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE GAMING HUB I am doing this season.  A few games on their I am doing also.  It's ok by myself but I want more people to join my groups next time I guess.  ManUtd is doing better at the right time to move on in the event.  U.S. SOCCER hasn't done much this year since they pissed off U.S. WOMEN SOCCER and U.S. MEN SOCCER didn't help out at all.   As you know that Canada, Mexico & the U.S.A. for the world cup in 2026 & that's pretty cool also.  FIFA 2022 QATAR world cup preliminaries .   DCU isn't do well this days.  Take care & GO USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  GO MANUTD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   How is your soccer teams going???

We had friends over for social distance ND FOOTBALL game watching.  Here is the result of the game and watched more other games that happen this past Saturday on a warm day in the 80's day.    The season has being odd with covid19 effecting NCAA FOOTBALL .  Rankings for college football will come out later this week before this coming Saturday games. On Sunday the weather is raining in the 40's in the Northern Virginia also.  Both Washington football team & Cleveland Brown 's has a different crazy endings this time.  The season has being odd with covid19 effecting NFL .  Earlier voting has being a new record high before super Tuesday to elect a new president (Nov. 3rd, 2020).  Info on polling places for voting.   I am doing a project so my next after weekend spot will be very soon before it.

Here is a few articles to protect yourself on & off-line during covid-19 by staying home much more.   Scams that start on Social Media - like Facebook, Twitter & others,  FTC chairman is not writing to you, Non-filers : Expect a letter about your stimulus check,  Did you get an offer for student loan debt relief?,  Fake calling plans cheat prisoners and their ones,  Threatening phone scams are targeting parents and immigrants,  How to spot, avoid, and report imposter scams ,   Reporting fraud helps everyone – and now it’s easier to do ,   Overpaid your utility bill? That’s probably a scam & COVID-19 clinical trial: real or fake? Learn how to tell the difference. -  FACEBOOK ,  TWITTER ,  INSTAGRAM ,  an others later...    

 A word of advice about traveling during this terrible time.  Hope everyone is safe when you travel because wear a mask (washable & disposable brands)  and wash your hands & hand sanitizer (required 60% + ethyl alcohol) at the time - hand hygiene details. The parents & I aren't traveling much because it ain't over till it's over.  Check with the CDC on travel during this time.   I got a really cool BLU-RAY DVD from the Nationals called "IMPROBABLE" from the Nats Team Store .  If you have a iPhone or Android cell phone you can use this M.L.B. Ballpark App .   We have 2 Dick's Sporting Goods near our house since a Best Buy left us before & during the covid issue.  Little soccer ( euro-football ) I keep up with my family.  My teams that I route for are Manchester United F.C. , D.C. UNITED & Washington Spirit and U.S. SOCCER ( USMNT & USWNT ).   What are your favorite teams in this sport?...

I hope everyone has a lovely weekend & hope everyone is earlier voting is working for you.  I am going to be watching a ND FOOTBALL game that they are playing against Louisville at home ( NOTRE DAME FOOTBALL Schedule update ) around 2:30pm et on NBC tv channel.  They play at Pittsburgh next weekend on ABC around 3:30pm et. Last rankings before this weekend.  More college football update on canceled games & etc. I think HALLOWEEN is up in the air this days.  I hope everyone is safe & careful out there.   I am not watching much news before our elections since I already know what their saying & not saying.  I really glad I did early voting by absentee ballot .    I hand delivered my absentee ballot to our state main government building near us into a box yesterday. 

 I voted by absentee ballot this year to keep parents safe this election.  Hope you are safe when voting this year.   I hand delivered my ballot to a box to a main building handing votes in our area to be sure it counts sooner.  Suppose the USPS has a safe way to send election mail under this times protocol.   VOTING stories for you to understand what is happening?:  usa today reports ,  ny times ,  A.P. ,  C.N.N. , Wash. POST ,  more later today or tomorrow... new stuff right here & hope like or true ...
