Happy Birthday, Gents!

The wired defensive helmet, brought about thanks to Bellicheat* et al, should be scrapped. Case in point: CIN cut long-time RT Willie Anderson. He signed with BAL. They squared off in game #1. CIN was yet to be ripped to shreds with injuries. Anderson didn't start. I'm watching this game, and after a few series, I say to myself, what gives? BAL is a good defensive time, sure, but snap after snap, BAL was in perfect position. Rich Gannon was doing the commentary - in the 2nd half, he opined that its' as if BAL had CIN's offensive playbook. They did - Willie Anderson. After the game, several b'gals players were hot , feeling that ole' Willie was giving info which was instantly sent to the defensive helmet-wired guy.

We need Tossy to chime in.

Well - he did play some shotgun formations, so he's used to being away from the LOS when the snap occurs.

My apology to you, Wacka. My opening words were a rudeness to you. stuck

True...but when ya draft 3 or 4 of them, one has to wonder.

POW! BLAM!

I'll toss in Sammy Davis Jr., performing "Mr. Bojangles"... Here's Mr. Bojangles himself - Bill Robinson, with his life-long pal, Shirley Temple: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjCFYpWDmfM...PL&index=16

I think he's related to the late Rodney Dangerfield, somehow.

An OTA Hero!

Did your passports arrive in the mail today?

Not if you have endless cash on tap! You could always have the driver fire up the V-16 Cadillac Phaeton for a jaunt back to the 'burgh, or a picnic in the Laurel Highlands. A remembrance: One of the bedrooms had an articulating device that clamped and held a book over the bed for nighttime reading. That...I would like to have.

Why?

Tenny's sig line: "Those who begin coercive elimination of dissent soon find themselves exterminating dissenters. Compulsory unification of opinion achieves only the unanimity of the graveyard." - Associate Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson."

Big linebackers that hit hard and are sure tacklers. DEs that string run plays outside so the above can get good whacks on the ball carrier. A DT that is lightning-quick off the snap (Sam Adams-type). A couple of DBs that are terrific blitzers.

Free disability pay! Yea!

I don't think much of this, either way. You are 51 years old, yet in that short time, you know more than the collective thoughts of billions that preceded you. Neat. The Book of Genisis preceded Darwin by...a bit... 1.2 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven. 1.21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good. Could be that God understands science, and evolution. "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." Hamlet, Act 1, scene 5 Points to ponder.

The Cash/Dylan duet, Girl From The North Country from their Nashville Skyline album is a good one.

0-16 is carefree. 7-9 is insipid, gut-wrenching, and makes you feel like a sap.

That's a haunting song, for sure. Good pick.

Thanks - as a kid, of course, I thought such to be silly. But as the years rolled on, I saw why, and it is a very fond memory. I hope you feel the same.

I'm envious! You and yours have a good, safe time, WWV.
