Saturday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

While you watch your college football games today remember the NFL front offices and the fans of both the Steelers and Saints are hoping Paris doesn't get burned to the ground and their game tomorrow morning comes off without a hitch. All for a buck. Can almost picture Roger Goodell saying, "Are you not entertained?"

Friday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

To get this out of the way - yes I did watch the Bears beat the Pats 30-24. I held out hope until about 1:30 left in the game when Chicago went up by 9 points. One team had to lose and last night was New England's turn.

Thursday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

The Patriots play the Bears tonight on Thursday Night Football. Make sure you get your fantasy football lineups in - it would be a shame to leave either Drake Maye or Caleb Williams on the bench. Oh and make sure you have plenty of beer for the game (note to self).

Wednesday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

Today is Wednesday - Woodin's day (aka Odin). This always makes me think of the bumper sticker "Odin promised he would get rid of the Ice Giants. Well where are the Ice Giants now? Vote Odin." Hard to argue with that logic.

Tuesday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

Today's offering seems mainly NFL related and I did not even mention last night's 23-17 win by San Fran over Washington. Was this head coach Dan Quinn's last game with the Commanders before getting fired for Jayden Daniels' brain farts? Curious minds want to know.

Monday Flotsam and Jetsam

Have a new miscellaneous thoughts and observations post up on Substack.

With Paris and France on fire, rampant looting and general chaos going on - would you be surprised if the State Department issued a travel advisory telling Americans not to travel to France? In a way it would also be amusing to see France try to invoke NATO Article 5: "Help us from our immigration problem and send us your NFL teams."
