5:51 a.m. - 45 U.S. Senators yesterday voted to call the impeachment of a former president unconstitutional. What the hell? The message that vote sends are incredibly frustrating to me. Essentially, President Biden could do something so treasonous - so illegal - so un-American, and then he could just resign before the impeachment trial of the Senate and never be held accountable. That was the message sent by those Senators. Or was it a simpler message - party and/or loyalty to someone is more important than the oath to uphold the U.S. Constitution. Ironically, prior to the vote, each member signed notice with their signature and swore an oath to uphold the Constitution. Oooohhhh...Mr. President Biden...you have a long, difficult road ahead of you.
In other news, it's back to school today. The snowstorm is done, the roads are clear, and the temps are really, really cold today. Yesterday, I just stayed home, got a few things accomplished, exercised a little, and spent some time playing with Tucker.
4:57 p.m. - So the IHSA came out with it's guidelines for sports, and let's just say that this is going to be interesting. Of course, trying to get athletes an opportunity to participate in something is honorable and appreciate, but it's going to take a "village" to work through it. As an official and umpire, I think it's possible that at some point this spring between high school and junior high I just may have volleyball, basketball, and softball all in the same week. And I think small schools are going to have to make some interesting decisions about athletes participating in two sports at the same time while one is ending and another is beginning. And then schools will have to decide how many games they want their athletes to play each week. I'm wondering if this decision triggers a lot of decisions that now need to be made by school districts in order to have type of attempt at keeping athletes as safe from injury and illness as possible.
