My thoughts by Paul M. Dugan

It’s being a relaxing weekend for me but I did pro & colly fantasy games when I pick winners for this events.  I present an update on 2026 World Cup ( USA , Mexico & Canada are the hosts) qualification right  here .   MLS & NWSL latest news also.  Latest table update for the premier league.   Finally the NFL has return fully (starts this past Thursday) & hope works out pretty awesome for all.  My Browns & Commanders got start out good.  How about your team?

  Hi there…,       As a University of NOTRE DAME Football fan that I was disappointed in the outcome for the game but they thought a tough & rough being.     Turnovers happen for us to lose this game and not creating ones for to take the lead & etc.   I watched some of the game but if I got mad I left the room to cool my jets because that’s the way I roll with it.  Other topics to be.   Take care & Go Irish!!!  I saw on the Washington Post they had an article about best Football town .  Do you agree with it??? From….,    Paul P.S. It’s ok if you don’t to speak to me about sports.  I am cool with that.  I try to branch out for other topics to deal with.  I usually connect with people with sports and family.  Too many of my family who loved sports as much I did have moved on from this world.  I am mad about it still & just can’t weather storm for it.

I think the pandemic hurt stuff around but I am worrying about society so much I forgotten to take care of myself so I need to do better in the future.  My life  has being good with work & family but certain things come up to deal with.  I see some family but not many friends this days.  You? My current topics: One my favorite bands got back together again from long ago called OASIS …. Movies:  I did see an awesome movie called the SUPERMAN (newest version) in IMAX format.  Hope everyone saw it in the theater if not watch please do it online very soon.   My sports deco fit in my own words. A start for college football and etc…

I saw this band play long ago at varies places in the DMV area.  They were pretty awesome.  Check out one my favorite bands called OASIS came back from the died from its odd breakup.   Music on YouTube.  My favorite band didn’t near me at all.  Chicago (08/28/2025) was the nearest venue at Soldiers field where the Bears play.  ‘AND AFTER ALL (A Fan History Of OASIS)’ on Amazon - family helped about a story in it.  I heard from sources that at MetLife stadium (NJ) tickets for the gig cost $250 & at Chicago - Soldier Field stadium tickets for gig cost $340…  Is this true price?  What’s your take on this? Thanks. The states (USA) review of the gigs in this articles:  North America leg of the tour worth it,   rolling stone, London facts,  

  My decoration of independence for Sports: Hi there…,            I am just saying I just getting tired of new teams think their so hot since all the old guard no longer playing.    So, you need to put them down even so haven’t match up for those earlier eras to give crap about.  It’s a work in progress for me this days.  I am not wiling to watch sports because I can’t change the outcome even if I watch it at that time.  I hope I can’t vent better on my blog so I can be happier again but time will tell.  It’s just so draining on not know about your team that I do try to keep up with.  I don’t keep up with other teams just my teams at this point in my life.  

Hi there!!! Well..,  I saw some pre - season matchups for the Premier League Summer Series 2025 here in the States - U.S.A. & some live games also ( ManUtd won this event if you like to know).  We saw the match ups in Chicago, IL with family & friends also (July 30th, 2025 that’s a Wednesday).   Videos of the Goals scored in the  PL Summer Series by NBCsports .  By the way the new premier league season starts up again on August 15th, 2025 that’s a Friday.  I also play fantasy also for this best   soccer league in my book. Will the Premier League have its best year?  Preview for soccer from Athlon sports mags.  Community Shield matchup is preview right here.  Transfer updates .  To buy soccer stuff:   Soccer dot com,   Fanatics dot com, DicksSportingGoods dot com,   WorldSoccerShop dot com,  local shop called SpringFieldSoccerSupplies dot com,   Pretty crazy an awesome band named “ OA...

 The dumb leader for the United States Of America claimed the Club World Cup by FIFA in the U.S.A. trophy like a looney he is still in my book.   I didn’t know the M.L.B. All-Star game happen this week.  Wow that went over my head.  Did anyone watch it & HR derby?  Terrible news to hear about college sports in a certain bill passed a step I guess.  

 More Superman stuff:  I don’t read review for movies because they can pay for a good review but bad one is petty one in my book.  USA today’s review if you want to read it.  Box office smash it.  It’s a hit now.  It’s in IMAX also.  Will you go see?  What’s your favorite move this summer? More articles about the new Superman movie:  

 Hope you have a nice one.  The parents & I are hang out at home this year.  Take care and Be safe too. Later now!!!

Hi there…,    Lately it has being very humid & rainy lately in NorthernVirginia (DMV area).  I have being dealing with it on while walking dogs for my job.  I hope to see lots of soccer this summer on TV & live while being with family.  What are you up to this summer?  The nephew/godson’s band named Uniflora is touring three spots at this time in Chicago , NY City & Washington, DC this week & next ones. There YouTube channel .  Spotify music  link .  Press articles:  Washington City paper ,   More info later this week.  Manchester United F.C. summer fixtures list.  More Premier summer matches . A certain comic character named “SUPERMAN” playing July 11th, 2025.  Superman is one of my favorite 😍 be from DC Comic.  It’s in IMAX right here.  

                I got some pretty awesome news came out of Chicago about my nephew/ godson did a great job taking his ACT - video & article to be on here ( Suntimes ).  Nephew’s band Uniflora mini East Coast tour 2025 - shows done and etc.  the band’s: “Jeepster” cover song on YouTube.              Down in Washington, DC area (DMV) our Metro ( WMATA ) are a digital Smartrip card (I use this for now) & Apple Pay right now. I know in Chicago, IL on the “ L ” they use ApplePay also.  It works pretty well since I use allot to protect myself better with it. NY city transit: ??? I want ahead tried to make some chocolate chip cookies walnuts in them from a Betty Crocker recipe .  Hope the parents like them.  I followed it to the “T”  in the right direction.  I know our Uncle Mark who makes a mean chocolate chip cookies & hope to get to know his recipe better. ...

 Hi there…..,      I am sorry I haven’t being updating on my blog lately.  I just haven’t had anything to see this days.   Before & after Easter in our neighborhood we have had the GAS company did a lot of people’s ground to replace their pipes to make our area safely.  On Easter weekend we had a pretty awesome Ham, Curley fries (?) with corn soufflé and etc.  I pretty great thing I have being learning a language from an app on the iPhone called Duolingo & I am trying German.  It going pretty good also.  Would you try this app for speak another language?  

               Our nutty leader executive orders .  Supposed cutting the fat but destroying people’s lives out in WashDC .  elin musk doge details are kind of just how they did it but why not.   Missing U.S. government websites that I use all the time - why you do this when you don’t like & believe in - what is what… The trade war that our dickhead leader has started - tariffs stuff.  Bad things happen when the dumb leader ordered a to leader a task force to work on the 2026WorldCup that involved also Mexico, Canada with the United States of America .  Space issue problem .  Uneducated vs Dept. of Education for the details .  I am not sorry for pointed out this loser hurting our country so he can’t be prosecuted while our leader according to the dumb Supreme Court. The ncaa men & women basketball big dance are starting up very soon. Didn’t watch of the mini conference tournaments so I am surpri...

 There are plenty of other sports after things are done like euro soccer (football), NBA, NCAA basketball (men & women),  ncaa baseball & softball and etc…

 ND football playoff run and rest of the bowl matchups .  Political thoughts from University of NOTRE DAME.  Watching some NFL final playoffs before Super Bowl - it’s hard to play a team three times & see what you can do - I see the AFC (K.C. Chiefs) side to beat NFC (Phila. Eagles) in the Super Bowl and that’s a guarantee from me.  Haven’t watch much soccer like premier league because don’t like the product without correct change in my book.  NBA is very boring since no defense is present also.  Other college sports let’s me learn about teams before their tournaments start I guess.

 Hi there!!!  Winter snows has hit Northern Virginia ( FairfaxCountyGov ,   FedOpen & others ) area.  Washington, D.C. weather details .  Past three days the winter weather has being crazy with the snow.  I have being shoveling also with neighbors helping us by using a snow plow on removing lots of snow.  Thanking them for the help at this time.  Please careful out there. I know that the NFL 2025 playoffs started this weekend.   Who will win it all?  ND football is doing really well in the cfbplayoff format for FBS league this 12 team kind.  More college football bowls besides playoff results.  Other college football championships like the FCS , division2 , division3 and etc.  The rest if the bowl season right here . More snow came down tonight on January 11th, 2025 that ‘s a Saturday.  Be safe too… Hi there…, Oh Yes, the University of NOTRE DAME for FOOTBALL started their saga that happens when they were caste...
