Surprisingly, the boy has said he wants to do a glacier float plane thingie and also a whale watching thingie. Figured the whale thing but the float plane was a surprise. May hit up a helicopter thingie as well. No sled dog thingies as neither of us think that’s cool.
We’re doing the damn thing.
Apparently, after the rules were changed in 2007 to allow teams to control their own balls (which Brady stridently lobbied for personally ). The Patriots fumbling rate fell from mostly average year over year to the bottom of the chart, and has stayed there year after year ever since.
So as soon as Tom had control of the ball conditioning, all the Patriots got very sticky fingers for the next 8 years. Is a soft ball easier to hold onto, Hmm.. ya.

I’d be OK with that too. I stand by my ‘jackass; comment. And some baseball players have, and have been, jackasses too.
Seriously, though, I do have some sympathy with your take on it. The NFL sets up rules for the balls that (if John Madden is to be believed) have changed frequently and are more about marketing and making money than for playing the game. Now it looks like the NFL is partly responsible by being sloppy about enforcing its own rules. So, what to do? Easy: they blame everyone but themselves. So, yes, another shining example of Goodell competence and leadership, a fine example to our precious youth.

@Omnes Omnibus: I have babysitters and a wad full of cash. So…no?

As a palate cleanser after some of what I have posted earlier, here is this.

@Corner Stone: Arrests in a foreign country can be tricky. Just saying.
@Steeplejack: I missed the Marty Robbins link. Sorry.

We’re about to get the UTI knocked out of us in The Greater Houston Metro Area.
So if I don’t respond with curse filled invective, or properly appreciative comments regarding our bosomy burgeoning youths…know that I love you all.
But not LB. LB can go fuck LB.

@Corner Stone:
why the anger?
Omnes Omnibus
@Little Boots: Why not?
Little Boots
@Omnes Omnibus:
don’t you start.
Corner Stone
@Little Boots: I don’t like having the UTI knocked outta me. I prefer a reasonable course of anti-biotics and a balanced diet.
It’s probably not your fault. But the Rockets are down 3-1. So somebody has to pay.

@Omnes Omnibus:

Corner Stone
@Little Boots: You’re god damned right it’s sad. How the fugue do we go 1-3 against some douche driving a Kia on the deck of an aircraft carrier?

I assume Trump uses that picture because he thinks it makes him look tough, but really he just looks constipated.

Any one remember Spy Magazine calling him “fat fingered vulgarian”?

What gets me is when people give Brady shit for not giving the NFL access to his messages and email.
Would you give your employer unfettered access to your private messages? Now imagine you are a huge star, your messages are worth money and the people who want them are the corrupt/incompetent NFL!
