Scooby Doo Basketball Chaos

Blessings to a 1982 episode of “Scooby Doo” (featuring Scrappy) in which Shaggy and Scooby are playing in a rec basketball tournament. The team they're playing against has a special computer in the rec hall basement that controls electronic sneakers worn by their players. Those special sneakers allow their players to jump high and run really fast. Thanks to this cheating, they can fly around the court and easily block any shot that comes their way.

How is this not goaltending by the other team??? Come on, referee!!

Blessings: June 2019

Let's get ready for summer with a fresh batch of blessings!

1). Blessings to former Trapper John, M.D. actor Charlie Siebert, whom Maria and I saw playing a mustache-wearing carnival worker on Murder, She Wrote. Siebert, a regular on The $25,000 Pyramid, was a prime suspect when the corrupt carnival boss/CEO was found dead. Also, his wife had a relationship with the Cabot Cove police chief years ago! Will this romantic backstory compromise the investigation? Spoiler alert: No, it won't. 

There was an additional storyline involving tax fraud, which I enjoyed. Blessings to Charlie Siebert's agent for landing him that role!

Fortunately, my colleague found that it was airing again last weekend! With my curiosity piqued, I watched "Lethal Soccer Mom" and was blown away by how utterly stupid / completely enjoyable it was. A film right up my alley!

Let's get to the highlights:
