Avery I actually turned the second game off and watched some movie that was on (and napped).

Two more games today. I am most interested in the first one.

Yup. Nice the second is on at a reasonable time.

Avery

Sam. 'Nuther big day. I'm more interested in the KC game. Just don't know enuf about the NFC teams. Probably be a good game tho.

Avery Yes! But you will have to stay up late for that Chiefs game. I am concerned about Mahomes. Says he will mostly pass from the pocket and that can be pretty limiting for him.

I think it starts 6:40 in the East. So if it's a good game should be over by 10PM which is doable.

Made it to the end of the game. Good for the Chiefs.

Avery It was a nailbiter!

Sam, in-person sports betting began today in Massachusetts. In-person meaning one has to show up at a sports book (think we have two) and place the bet. Just in time for the Super Bowl. Online comes later.

Sam, they say it's 97 in Phoenix and the sun isn't up yet. Hope you're fairing OK.

Only 6 weeks 'til football!

Avery Interesting. In AZ you can bet on line and at sports books and all the casinos.

But also interesting is Brady Retirement 0.2! How long will this one last?

MA can be very conservative in some ways. Odd.

Bob Kraft (Pats owner) has been on the air touting a one-day contract for Brady so he can retire as a Patriot. That makes me think it's for real, Brady wouldn't let Kraft make a fool of himself in public. I don't think. But $$$ talks. We'll see.

Record cold predicted Saturday AM, -7F (-22C). No running indoor or out. (Most of us would have to walk to the indoor track.)

bdsamm

Avery Sorry! 75 here Saturday and 78 or maybe 80 on Sunday.

Congrats to the Chiefs!!!

@Avery Glad to see you back. Missed your wisdom. The Chiefs lost first Regulation game and quarterback is frustated. What is going on with the Pars? Hope you are doing well and keeping up with your running.

I'd be frustrated too if your coach tells you to go for it on 4th and 25 inside your own territory.

Sam,

I thought about you, but had school stuff to do. I was amazed the Chiefs lost. The Pats, when they were good, often started slow, e.g. 2-2, and then went on to "The Big Game". Also amazed when the Bengals score came on just before the Pats game started. Glad Joe Burrow got his $55 million tho. Pats started their game very poorly, 2 scores given up on turnovers, but came back impressively against the defending NFC champions.

Running is good. Been back at school 4 weeks today to do team workouts.

OK, Now what do you think about the Jets "new" quarterback?

bdsamm OK, Now what do you think about the Jets "new" quarterback?

I think Wilson will be quite serviceable. I never liked Rodgers, too self-aware, kind of like Favre without the joie de vivre. I think Favre blew off practice on the first day of hunting season because he couldn't imagine life without hunting. I think Rodgers does things to get attention. Well. That's probably light on analysis.

Vikings/Eagles touchback.

I know a rule is a rule.

But that is some BS.

bdsamm

OK, Chiefs won and Pats lost to the fish. I could not watch the Chiefs because of the new deal with the NFL and Amazon but I could watch the Patriots. Interesting.

I didn't make it to the end. X-country training. Not clear to me why that game was deemed worthy of the night-time slot. Pundits said, when the schedules were first released, that we could start 0-4. We are 1/2 way there. Must beat the Jets, doubtful we'll beat Dallas.
