Read a lot of blogs and found lots of frustration out there!!! Already had plenty of my own:-)
Already felt crappy. Took of from work Saturday to attend a going away party for my neighbor. He is a firefighter and is going to Iraq for a year to do fire and safety inspections of US facilities...been some injuries and deaths due to shoddy workmanship and general greed that breeds shortcuts, but that is for another soapbox.
This leads to my second problem. Realized I have a crush on one of the neighborhood moms, when I caught myself having lewd thoughts about her. She's blonde and nicely shaped, and just a little older than me; has a nice smile, pretty laugh, and talks nice to me. Don't know her husband that well but have no wish to upset the balance of things, so will say nothing. Just another secret crush:-(
Now lets talk about football since I have added a little perspective:-)
1. Still have a great coach/man/human being I believe in!
2. I root for a proven vereran team that is just having a rough spot.
3. Rooting for said team has introduced me to some great people here.
4. The years we sailed into the playoffs didn't turn out too well, whereas
the year our boys clawed their way into the playoffs, they won the whole
thing.
5. At least we weren't spanked by Miami...(sorry Bo!!! :-)
6. Our team has a bye next week to do some extra work and recuperating.
I wasn't able to see the games as I was working, so don't know about the officiating. I did see where a penalty against our side extended the Jags' final drive to allow their field goal.
I am just guessing, but think Coach Dungy won't make a big deal about calls or lack thereof. He'll reiterate that it is up to the team to execute -- scoring on offense and making stops on defense -- and not make mistakes that cost the game.
It is always easier when things are going well; which is why today's quote of the day blog is about adversity. Its also a two-fer as I was too busy doing my part to keep the Margaritaville Brewing company in business last night:-)), to do a QOTD entry.
Please check it out. Hopefully you will gain some comfort from it as I did. That and the hope that I may be able to someday act on one of my secret crushes:-)))))))))))))
