New Orleans Saints

Posted on by

PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT:
Everyone knows I’m a Redskins fan, I was born in DC and will always be a Redskins fan as long as they exist. Rain or shine. Win or lose.

Years ago, I decided I needed a second team to like, I picked the New Orleans Saints, mostly  because they had the best looking cheerleaders. But now, the cheerleaders aren’t so hot, and I don’t like that New Orleans has hired that old fat hippie Dallas coach. (At least he got a haircut)

SO at this time I make a public declaration: New Orleans Saints are no longer my number two team. I don’t dislike them, but I officially disown them as my team.

Please continue doing whatever you were doing before you paused to read this, and..

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

PS: Pirates week starts this week. Tonight is the fireworks. Not sure I have a Pirates uniform or not…

NFL’s Worst Year

For me, this has been the worst year for NFL Football that I  can ever remember. Without exception, whatever game I have watched or looked at, the team I want to win has lost.

I wanted to watch one good game yesterday. Nary a one.

Woke up last night at 2 AM, my first thought was “Good, it’s still early enough to go to sleep”. At 3:30 I was thinking “In a half hour, the I’ll only have an hour before I have to get up.” I seem to have insomnia only on weeknights. I sleep good on the weekends.

These birds just landed next to me.

It’s Monday. Blah.

Have a good week!

(American) Football Again

Last night I watched my Redskins barely beat the Cleveland Browns. Cleveland could have tied it, and gone into overtime, or won it, they went for the win and didn’t make it, so they lost.

Kirk Cousins (backup quarterback) always plays better than Robert Griffin III, (starting quarterback)

This morning I was sitting in the woods and Miss Hawaii came walking by, wearing short short shorts. I told her I used to live in Hawaii. She was fascinated, and was sitting down to talk to me. Then the alarm went off.

Aloha!

Monday-ish Thursday

Today it’s back to work for me. Feels like Monday.

I guess it was an OK vacation. The weather was crappy half the time. I didn’t waste too much time  when it was nice out.

Last night we went and saw Costa Rica girls football. They got hammered by Canada. It was devastating. Canada scored first, Costa Rica answered by scoring immediately, but then it was all over.

Yesterday I took “Da Bus” into town to help the Wife  pick up her car that was in the shop. Here’s a pic of me on “Da Bus”.

You can tell I’m thrilled. Just like I’m thrilled to be going back to work today.

Have a good last two days of the week!

Last night The Wife and I and a lot of the islands Costa Ricans went to watch Costa Rica play football against Jamaica.
It was lots of fun.

The Jamaican girls seemed a lot bigger than the Costa Ricans, but both teams played well,  to a draw.

Costa Rica plays Canada (?) on Wednesday and I plan on going!

Tired Tuesday

I’m sleepy this morning, stayed up late watching Monday Night American Football, Jets at Atlanta. Jets won, which is what I wanted.
I didn’t plan on staying up, but the game was really good. Jets were ahead the whole game, with Atlanta right on their asses, then Atlanta pulled ahead at the very end, then Jets won with a field goal  with three seconds left
After the alarm went off this morning, I laid there for a second thinking “this must be Wednesday, this week’s been too long already.” Then I remembered Football and thought “Oh yeah, Tuesday.”

It’s all good though, we’ve been having a patch of good weather, beach snorkeling lunches, can’t complain.
I guess that’ll do ‘er for today. Have a good day!

Going To Get Into Football

Posted on by

I decided I’m going to get into football. Real football, not American football.

I’ve been reading a little, trying to grasp the complex league system. And trying to find a couple of teams I like. I found one. Udinese! I have had a pen pal in Udine Italy for years and years, so when I found a team from Udine, I became a fan!

It was a very nice weekend. And it seemed pretty long too. Friday we went to the Island Air party.20130201_172529There were private jets you could go aboard. This one only costs 12 million!20130201_210109

20130201_172431I got a close up view of the helicopter that’s always hovering over our house.

20130201_192416There were boats and cars too, I posted the above picture on Instagram and Facebook, and got several comments that I should buy my wife that car, but we can’t even afford socks that match, so I guess we’ll have to wait.20130203_08243420130202_124224Saturday we went to the “soft opening” of the George Town Yacht Club. Really nice.

And SUnday, we relaxed and went to a Super Bowl Party in the evening. Baltimore Ravens won and it was   a good game. It was outside though, and now I think I’m getting a cold. NO!

I have watched NFL football more this season than any other, ever.

This was a good weekend, uneventful, not much to remember, nothing to report. Looking forward to this workweek, I feel like I’m finally getting my feet on the ground at the new job.
