So, football day. No KC and no Patriots, though. For different reasons, of course.

    Avery I guess they have to have other games to figure out how to get around the missing game.

    It looks like there is some pretty good football today. The Bills are playing right now.

      Yup, we have it on. Should be a good day all day.

        Avery And Brady will be playing tonight. Probably on too late for you to watch all of it but I doubt you are terribly upset about that. LOL!

        Have a good day. A very rainy one here. i am bored.

          I can DVR the second half. I would think it should be an exciting game though Dallas has a much better record. Actually Brady's divorce irritates me more than the fact that he left. Belichick kind of ran him off.

          Snowy here, 2-3 inches (6 cm.). Enough to make it messy.

            Avery It should be a good game and interesting. The mountains here have already gotten a foot or so of snow and more coming down. Great to watch on a web cam.

              I just a re-run of that play where the Ravens were trying a quarterback sneak type of play from the 2, they fumbled and a Cincinnati guy ran it back 98 yards for a touchdown. Amazing.

                Avery Yep, that was quite a game. And then tonights. Kind of makes you wonder were Brady was tonight. Hope you slept well.

                  Morning, Sam. I did sleep well. Bed at 10PM. I saw the final score just now, 7AM here now. Have a DVR of the 2nd half. Might watch it later tho maybe not, it was never in doubt. Weird about all those missed extra points.

                    Avery I think the place kicker needs to find another occupation,

                      Wouldn't be surprised he's out as we speak.

                      Sam, NFL has announced that both Patriots and KC will host games in Germany later this year.

                        bdsamm Chiefs, 2:30 Saturday (Mountain time).

                        Everyone seems to be picking the Chiefs, which makes sense, Be interesting to see what Trevor Lawrence can do.

                        It's being said that the neutral site AFC Championship game, if it happens, may become the model for future conference championship games which will all be held at neutral sites and become more like mini-super-bowl weekends, eliminate really cold weather games in outdoor stadiums and generate more $$$$.

                          Avery Interesting but of course it is all about money. And now that is showing up in College sports. Wonder when it will make it down to the high school level. I guess there is not much money involved in running or maybe there is and I am not aware of it??

                          Our college basketball is on TV today just before the Chiefs. AZ Wildcats vs UCLA is on ESPN so I will be busy today.

                            Check out diamondleague.com which is a pro league for world class track and field. 15 meets this year, one in the US. Appearance fees and what not. So one could make a couple million a year if really top notch (Usain Bolt). Peanuts by US pro athlete standards, of course.

                            Katelyn Tuohy, our champ, has one of those NIL deals college jocks can now get. Maybe $100,000. Certainly more than people used to get and NCAA legal.

                              Avery It just doesn't feel right but, yes they should get whatever they can. I am so used to the restrictions on amateur athletes but I guess that is about gone.
