However, I will hope that the good and gentle folk of New Orleans and Louisiana are happy after the Super Bowl, they being among the best our nation has to offer (except for that deputy sheriff in St Landry Parish).
Good luck. I think that it may be necessary. :>)
* In exchange for Favre, my shrewd Falcons received Green Bay's pick (#19) in the first round of the 1992 NFL draft. We chose running back Tony Smith, Favre's former teammate at Southern Mississippi. Smith was with the Falcons for 3 years, his only three years in the league.
Those fashionable brown bags weren't just plain old sacks, I'll have you know. :) They were personalized, the favorite said, The Aints.. Oh, sure, a few said, Have we lost yet? but they were rare. LOL The lowest point in the paper bag year, we helped make Joe Montana's star begin to shine. We were up 35 to 7 at the half and still managed to lose. LOL
Of those bad ole days, this tale is perhaps my favorite. It is repeated as a true story. Once, in the 70s-early 80s, when our beloved Archie was the quarterback, things in the organization were so tumultous, everyone and everything so transitory that in one game, right before the snap, Archie looked down the line of scrimmage and actually saw a wide receiver that he didn’t recognize. The guy introduced himself in the huddle. LOL
I know this is life or death, so have at it.
I would never argue about foosball like that.......never.
:-)
That’s because you’d have two capped knees if you tried.
No more schussing for you! :P
Was that you that brought me down on the trail last week?
Didn’t I warn you to put a pillow in your pants? If you got a boo-boo on your tushie, you have only yourself to blame! :)
:-)
I only get emotional when the Broncos play. Other than that, I almost always go for the underdog. I’m such a nice guy! :)
Argue? Heavens no. Silly Sharky. That was no argument. It was merely two people expressing their opinions about a game.
Good stories, Darlin’. As for the Super Bowl, it is nice for N.O. and LA that regardless of the outcome, fans there will have either Peyton Manning or the Saints to feel good about.
Although, the most popular, most sought after interview in Miami probably won't be with Peyton or Drew. Archie's comments will be the "get" of the weekend. LOL Naturally, he will be gracious, self-deprecating and charming.
The game happens to fall on the same day as the first of the Mardi Gras parades begin to roll in N.O. So, it will be a toss up as to where the the biggest party will happen.
Actually, I should have said, that while we have adopted Archie and the entire Manning family as our own we really have to share he, Olivia and Cooper with Mississippi. :) Peyton, OTOH, is a homegrown New Orleanean. As is Eli.
Wome don't argue about football, they just have heated discussion....... tear each others hair out........ scratch each others eyes out...... speak kindly and affectionately to one another..............
:-)
*bashes head on monitor*
Okay, you can stop your head-bashing now, Lame. :P
Hey, differing opinions are what makes the world an interesting place, right? :)
Anything to take my mind off the State of the Union address.
Anybody gonna watch? Not sure if I will or not. Depends on how many barf bags I have handy.
Here's a recap:
1. I, I, I inherited this HUUUUGE mess. (not my fault)
2. It's Bush's fault.
3. I, I, I am fiscally responsible. (pay no attention that I'm freezing spending 50% higher than what I, I, I inherited)
4. I, I, I am fighting for you! (unions of America!)
5. I, I, I will stop Globull warming! (it caused the cold weather)
6. I, I, I will give you x, y, z, free. Free. (pay no attention to that man in your pocket)
7. I, I, I give a great speech, so I, I, I am going to torture speak with you for a whole extra hour!
I know it’s sheer torture to listen to his speeches, but I’d like to count how many lies he can tell with a straight face.
On the other hand, I’d probably just lose track anyway.
Then listen to Rush break it down tomorrow (need the humor).
Hint: Want to count the lies? How many times will his lips move.......
Lol! You’ve got it figured out, Lame. You’re one smart snickerdoodle!
Hint: Tell your kids to move ASAP, they'll never find a job there outside of government, and since they're not dems, they can forget that too.
