Yes, just a few more massages and he should be feeling quite fine.

You know we can find you, right? I mean, certainly somebody here has some kind of skills. OK, you’re probably feeling quite confident, I can sense it.

The Browns should wish they had an Alex Smith and be happy! I truly feel for the people who try to be their fans.

Thank you, I feel much better now. This place is much cheaper than therapy.

I’m sorry, this just makes me very sad.

The details have been worked out and we will be at the Ravens game. Sadly, the Bills do not have an outstanding record when I attend in person in recent years. The good news is, I can be bought to stay away.

So you really ARE a Magician?

When I was a kid we had a phone in the kitchen on a party line, and you could go to the library and look things up in an encyclopedia. Now my 11 year old son has a phone in wis pocket with virtually all the wisdom of mankind at his fingertips. This is his “normal”. What else will he see in his lifetime??? I have no idea where this AI stuff is going, but I know enough to have some very real concerns. .

Maybe that’s where I should go to get this year’s schedule?

I’ve got to quote that, just because I can and it’s so true! Letters from that day were like literature. Capt. Andrew Luck Was a fine example. Letters my FIL sent home from the USS Missouri in WWII to his family were almost that way, seriously. They sounded like that and ended with “Your Dearest George.” It was very different back then.

Lovely, it was my youngest son’s first car. And also describes a few people I have known.

We’re always looking to add speed!

In-the-box safety is the new slot receiver. It’s what we got, and a little variety would be great. I hope one of the new guys is a fit.

River? That’s a Nissan!

I’m surprised this didn’t come to me first! It’s the dog at my feet! The last fun thing we did before Covid shut things down was seeing To Kill A Mockingbird on Broadway. (Awesome, btw!) We had been in line with the breeder for a while and went a couple weeks before pickup of the puppy to make our selection. It turns out our dog’s mother was named Scout. We just looked at each other and thought of the play. Our dog had been named. Funny little tidbit……everybody wanted puppies during the lockdown because it was a perfect time to train a dog. The breeder told me “if I had a hundred puppies, I could sell them all this weekend.”

I’m fuzzy on the recall, but I feel like he won us a game last year with a big play late.

It seems he learned to keep his head up more and generally hits players from the other team more than he used to. EDIT: I imagine that’s one of those little coaching things that might have drawn a mention. Please stop killing OUR guys. Eyes up! .

We moved to Florida in 1993, but I clearly remember watching games in Hilton Head, SC where I would pull a chair up close to the TV, and just follow MJ everywhere he went on offense and defense. I remember my wife walking in and giving me a WTF type of comment. I probably looked like a cat following a laser pointer. 😂 I really enjoyed the NBA when I was younger. We split season tickets to the Braves with another family (that was plenty) and my sister used to babysit Bob Kauffman’s kid. Braves games were nice family time without the risk of sitting thru miserable weather.

If there’s no beer, it just might be the other place!

There’s nothing wrong with becoming a Bills fan during the Josh years. It beats never being enlightened at all.

ESPN occasionally has a game that I can only watch there. For that reason only I’m glad I have it, though I can watch a few minutes of PTI if they have good topics. I used to listen to Tony Kornheiser on the radio when my job involved a lot of driving around, and I’m a bit nostalgic for those days.

Give me a break! Who didn’t know THAT already? 😂

I had the family dog with me in college when my parents started traveling for work. Her name was Brandy, chosen by my parents. And yes, I would serenade her when the song came on the radio. Brandy was friendly with one of my buddy’s dog, an Irish Setter named Teisha. When I turned 21 my parents gave me a Golden puppy, and Brandy was not fond of the addition to the family. It was touch and go for a while, more so than any experience I’ve had since. Brandy was old and very grumpy. I had to make Brandy spit the puppy’s head out of her mouth. (Truth be told, I tried to get something nasty from her as a kid, and she scared the crap out of me! 😂) It was not my proudest moment. I swear it helped that I named the puppy Teisha. I was desperate. 🤷‍♂️ Other than that, we just pick (eligible) names, usually starting with a hard consonant. .

I chose from the names that my wife hasn’t put on the verboten list. I really liked the name Maggie for a dog, but it was my MIL’s “Americanized name”, so I knew that would never fly. There are several others, like Bailey. We voted 3-1 to name one dog Bailey, but that was the name of a red headed girl who threw up in my MIL’s car when the wife was young. 🤢 🤮 They couldn’t get the smell out, so they had to trade the car in. (I know, it sounds like a Seinfeld episode.) Apparently that left a lasting impression with my wife. I guess it’s fair to say we both have veto power, but somehow it still feels like the wifey gets her way. I have to pick my battles. .
