“Get dem checks.” Yes, “them” was spelled “dem.” No lie.

Perhaps they were referring to the Democrat party and some donations they were expecting?

So, is everyone for the pink jerseys or the purple jerseys?

Ultimately, the sport of football is popular and generally played on a Sunday and in less than ideal outdoors climates. People gravitate toward it as a unifying measure, some gamble or play fantasy football. The rest is fluff. ESPN is boring and pompous and one reason why I limit my viewing and listening habits.

I've always thought COLLEGE football was the best to watch. College players are FAR better that high school players but NOT as slick as the pros. College men have the body and a modicum of brains and WILL, thanks to their youth and exuberance, try the occasional "Hail Mary."
Pros would never, never, never try that. It's all scripted.

ANYTHING can happen at a college football game.
I recall a HUMDINGER of a game between Cal and Stanford eons ago,well, 1982.
The final TD was made by a Cal player RUNNING over the Stanford tuba player who, with the rest of the Standford band, was marching onto to the field in celebration of Stanford's win.
CAL won. Stanford lost. GO BEARS.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Play

That would have never happened in the pros.

=============================================

Cal announcer Joe Starkey of KGO-AM 810 radio called the game. The following is a transcript of his famous call:

“All right, here we go with the kickoff.
Harmon will probably try to squib it and he does. Ball comes loose and the Bears have to get out of bounds.
Rodgers, along the sideline, another one... they're still in deep trouble at midfield, they tried to do a couple of – the ball is still loose, as they get it to Rodgers!
They get it back now to the 30, they're down to the 20... Oh, the band is out on the field! He's gonna go into the end zone! He got into the end zone!

Will it count? The Bears have scored, but the bands are out on the field! There were flags all over the place.
Wait and see what happens; we don't know who won the game.
There are flags on the field. We have to see whether or not the flags are against Stanford or Cal. The Bears may have made some illegal laterals. It could be that it won't count.
The Bears, believe it or not, took it all the way into the end zone.
If the penalty is against Stanford, California would win the game. If it is not, the game is over and Stanford has won.

We've heard no decision yet.
Everybody is milling around on the (the conferencing officials now finally signal a touchdown) FIELD! AND THE BEARS! THE BEARS HAVE WON!
The Bears have won! Oh, my God! The most amazing, sensational, dramatic, heart-rending... exciting, thrilling finish in the history of college football! California has won the Big Game over Stanford!

Oh, excuse me for my voice, but I have never, never seen anything like it in the history of I have ever seen any game in my life! The Bears have won it! There will be no extra point!"

=============================================

Lol. Only in college football.

...Audry deLucia, who with her wife Fran....

Begone, perverts!

I hope the NFL will also allow bidding from Freddy and his wife Nanny Goat. And, of course, they can’t leave out Charlie and his roomful of dead bodies that he likes to snuggle with.

Another major reason to NOT watch the Superbowl.

The NFL is dead to me

I will never purchase anything from them ever again.

Not gifts for others, nothing.
