\u2022 I\u2019m ticked that the Orlando Magic fired coach Jamahl Mosley. Not just in the playoffs, but players weren\u2019t rebounding under their own basket. They weren\u2019t scrounging for loose balls. On some plays, they stood and watched while the other team went for the ball. Put some of the blame on them. Yes, they have long-term contracts, but they should be held accountable. Yes, some were injured, but is that the coach\u2019s fault?<\/p>\n
\u2022 The Orlando Magic fired the head coach because his professional players missed 23 straight baskets Friday night. The players should be fired. Oh, I\u2019m sorry, they have guaranteed contracts. What a joke.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Maybe if more Central Florida Republicans complained to Gov. DeSantis and their representatives in the Florida Legislature, then traffic congestion relief could begin on the I-4 corridor from the Lake Buena Vista overpass to the Osceola Parkway overpass. It is long overdue.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Why are carmakers allowed to sell cars made to go well over 100 mph in defiance of all speed limits? The manufacturers ought to be held partly accountable for high-speed accidents and required to make cars that won\u2019t go so fast. I\u2019d like to see a class-action suit.<\/p>\n
The flip side<\/p>\n
\u2022 Thank you to Theya, Noah and Annabel, who work at the front desk at the Marriott SpringHill Suites in New Smyrna Beach. We had a family beach weekend with 20 people and they were so pleasant and helpful during our stay. We really enjoyed the free breakfast each morning and the pool is a nice size.<\/p>\n
