Football, Basketball, Softball...

Looks like 2020 could be a very good year.

 

22 degrees here.

I don't know if we'll see Spring that soon.  High here for next week is projected to be in the low 50s.  At least the lows will be above freezing.

 

He won't be a "3 star" much longer. It looks like everyone has taken notice after his performance in the Texas HS playoffs. If not then, Saban's in-home visit says it all.

Duncanville is just southwest of Dallas, a suburb.  I once owned a house in that school district.  There is nothing quite like Texas HS football, especially the playoffs.

 

It looks like Bama is bringing back a lot of experience on both sides of the ball.   

Oh, I posted this link on the Najee thread, but maybe it's better here:

Here is a breakdown of where Bama stands, player-wise, after the draft:

That's pretty much how men injure themselves, trying to do the same things they did when they were younger.   But it's all good, no long term consequences. 

Yes, I used bad lifting technique, muscling an over-sized object into the back of a vehicle.  It felt good to have the strength to do it, like I'm 25 again.  And I'm glad my body at least has enough sense to remind me that I'm not 25, or even twice that, before I do something really stupid. 

 

Good morning all.

Yes ricky, it was cold yesterday morning and again this morning.  Going to get colder. 

These damp humid days of near freezing are the worse. You can feel it in your bones.

Rain today.  Work for me.  I have a part-time job at a big box hardware store, sometimes working outside, driving a fork lift, loading mulch and rocks and plants and dirt and wall block.  Other days I mix paint. It pays, and it's better than a gym.  In a year, I've lost weight and gained muscle, so I can't complain.  Except for days like today when I feel it in my back and knees and the rest of my joints.  I think I lifted something wrong yesterday, loading a large tool box into the back of a truck.  Nothing serious, just my back reminding me, "don't be an idiot!" 

^THIS^

My thoughts exactly.

I wonder how much a slap on the butt is worth these days.   

2-2 is a great result for this team through that stretch.  Even better is that the team looks to be "getting it" and improving.

I don't think you get to do an "Ugly" for this game.
