Marriage is like taking a hot bath...after a while, it's not so hot. The wife, of 26 glorious years, hates when I crack that joke.

This classic is now almost 60 years old and approaching Social Security. What music today will hold up in 60 years? Nothing that I'm familiar with. Signed: Another old man

That sound of the ball hitting the catcher's mitt in February is the most glorious sound of all...Go O's!

Correct, it was always mid-April. But April is all about the draft now, and May needed some "event" to keep the NFL relevant year-round. Hence, the schedule release was moved a month later.

Plane crash at Reagan Ntll. airport. Plane went into the Potomac.
Ned Flanders replied to Wacka's topic in Off the Wall
Yes, it was a Ch. 9, WUSA here in DC, reporter who then asked the poor guy to see the text. Classless move on the part of the reporter looking for some type of "scoop." -

We've tragically lost three students here in Fairfax County, along with their six parents. We know some of the family members. May God have mercy on their souls. Hello Team FCPS, We are devastated by the tragic news as we learn members of our FCPS community have lost their lives in the accident last night at Reagan National Airport. Many are reaching out to share their sorrow and emotions at this difficult time. We are hearing from students, staff members, and others in the community who are expressing their care and concern for those who have lost loved ones. I invite you to join me in keeping all those affected by this deep community loss in our prayers. We have more details that we can now share. Many on the flight were returning from a figure skating event in Wichita, Kansas. What we know at this time is that three of our FCPS students and six of our FCPS parents were lost, affecting multiple schools and departments here at FCPS. Two of the parents were current or former FCPS staff members. Multiplying the grief are the siblings, spouses, relatives, friends and colleagues who have lost loved ones. We must remain sensitive to the privacy needs and concerns for those who are directly involved. Therefore, we are not releasing specific information such as names out of care for those who are directly involved at this time. We know many in our FCPS community are now learning this tragic news and understanding the enormity of our loss. We have resources available to support students, staff, and families. I want to specifically recognize our principals, teachers, counselors, and other crisis teams who are responding to the needs of our students, families and staff during this most difficult time. We also continue to be thankful for our first responders and community partners. If you are feeling anxious, frustrated or overwhelmed, and need support, please consider reaching out to the FCPS Employee Assistance Program (EAP). We will continue to keep you updated as we are able. I speak for all of us at FCPS as we offer our condolences to everyone involved in this heartbreaking tragedy. It is a time to hold one another closer… -
Would you watch a "Consolation" Bowl?
Ned Flanders replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Stadium Wall
Please for the good that is all holy, no. I'm old enough to remember these games, the later ones played in Miami. Lombardi called them the "Losers Bowl," or the "S*it Bowl." -
The national media narrative since the Bills won
Ned Flanders replied to ChronicAndKnuckles's topic in The Stadium Wall
I watch these guys because they're in my age bracket and complain about the same things I do. Wilbon mixes in Chicago sports in almost every segment, it's not that annoying, but his statement regarding his rooting interest in the game was odd to me as well. I said to my wife before the show, that they were going to talk about how the Ravens lost and not why the Bills won. I was pleasantly surprised that they gave the Bills pretty much equal time. -
OT: 1980 Our 1st ever AFC East title, from local coverage
Ned Flanders replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
I still say, that if that team had home field advantage, they would have went to the Super Bowl. Recall, there were five teams at 11-5 in the AFC and through some wacky tiebreaker scenario, we had to play AT San Diego, even though Bills beat them earlier in the season. We know what happened there. -
