Nobody’s hurt? Okayyyy. Imagine if football was his burning desire. Imagine that

Dammit! We were gonna depend on him on the final drive of the Super Bowl?!

Should have always been in LA

That’s fine. But soccer fans, especially younger fans, get confused by it. They decry, “Try taking a cleat to the foot or leg!😡” It’s silly looking, especially in the aftermath when the player limps for a few steps back into position and then magically no effects from all that crying and slapping the turf in painful agony. No harm no foul ❌ No harm = FOUL ✅ I show my wife a scar on my Achilles heel. The very first tackle football game I ever played. First series. Our RB breaks loose (no doubt due to a superb crack block from yours truly) and I’m jogging downfield and watching him go, and a big defensive lineman just streamrolls me from behind, which none of my teammates did to me in practice 😂 Big #98 stomps on the back of my heel. Skin, blood, ripped sock. I get up and sprint to help up our RB 30 yards downfield. It’s the same thing. I watched hours of the World Cup with people that should know better, but the obvious isn’t so obvious when you’re blatantly lied to. Like hydration breaks. They honestly think the players need water. For all these years, the players survived without a hydration break, but now they NEED it 🤣 Even Florio.. he’s tiptoeing around it like it’s a dirty secret. I don’t get it at all. The breaks are to run ads, full stop. Why is Florio dancing around the topic like a strange person. Two things that the US has brought to soccer this World Cup are commercial breaks and instant reply. One is for greed and the other is an absolute joke.

Raymond is a classic 😊 Jackpot for Ray Romano. From the little I remember coming across, he’s very down to earth and struggled right up until smashing it big with that show. It has to be rated as one of the great family sitcoms. I’ll admit, I’m a Seinfeld guy and very much not a Friends fan, and Ray isn’t either of those, but closer to Seinfeld so even though I didn’t watch the show, I get the appeal for sure. And it has the one and only Frank Costanza in it, so homerun! I was catching episodes of CHiPs on YouTube or YouTubeTV recently. Also on YouTube are cool vids on filming locations and the making of the show. They used the 2 fwy a lot because it was being built so they had a nearly finished empty freeway at their disposal. It’s a great LA show - the chase scenes, really all the outdoor scenes, give off a great feel for 70s/80s LA. I was all about taking the 2 or Glendale BLVD to Dodgers games back in the days.

All great shows. Hope CHiPs was on your list, Egg

And the Rams still had a R1 pick, and they’re so good at this they use it on a QB, to replace the league MVP! What is that?? I swear it’s like the Rams and Eagles go by a different set of rules.

I did a barrel roll around Mt. Rainier in a P51. The real pilot in the front seat suggested it. I say yes to everything.

A great 80s theme song. RIP

And the worst. That’s the problem with food in a dive bar 😂

Seriously. Chili Peppers said it best that the sun may rise in the east but at least it settled in a final location.. or something. It’s the last frontier. It should always be changing, always reinventing itself to be new and fresh. But most people don’t work that way so we all grab a fun time and place in our lives and cherish it. If that place is Southern California, then there’s a lot there to cherish, and it changes fast so someone’s LA could be drastically different than another’s in just a short period of time. Sunset and the canyon in the 60s/70s.. wow. That must’ve been so impactful. I would’ve loved it. Those roads seem stuck in time a little. Everything is so tight and narrow. There’s more demo and rebuilds in the lower hills / west LA. But taking a drive down Sunset and through the canyon seems a place stuck in time.

It’s the most important position in major pro sports and we have the very best. That’s something. If I wasn’t born into this and been a conscientious Bills fan for the past 40 years, I’d feel pretty good about that 🤣🤣🤣

Desperation. Plain and simple

This is another reason to not even ask him 🤣 How’s that play out then. Josh says, “No.” Now what? Does Terry act like he didn’t hear him? Try to change his mind? Does Terry rely on his persuasive argument skills in these situations? At this point in the unfolding of imaginary events, if Josh answered that he wanted to keep Sean, Terry would know he’s got a $500mil head case on his hands. That owner couldn’t have been anymore clear about that. Wonder if the Ravens board is claiming what really happened is the exact opposite 🤣 Lamar is more powerful than the owner!
