Just here watching the 1st of 2 games today.  It is hard to believe that after this all we have left is the Super Bowl.  =(  Even if I’m not watching the games intently, I like having them on in the background, so this sucks.  There really is no one team that I don’t like, but I don’t care of Rivers attitude from the Chargers….no sportsmanship.  That means a lot to me.  I really would love to see Green Bay make the Super Bowl and take the Patriots down.  Partly because the Patriots beat our Colts, the coaching staff has also been tarnished for me with them video taping the calls of other teams………that was low, but mainly because I would love to see Favre get one more ring and this may be one of his last chances. He has a hell of a year after last year.

Baby, it’s cold outside for NFC title game

McCarthy used some frozen balls at practice this week to help simulate likely conditions Sunday.

“Is that what was going on?” veteran wide receiver Donald Driver said with a laugh. “Basically, they never told us that the balls were coming out of the freezer, we just kind just felt it as we caught it: ’Wow, the balls are cold.’ We thought most likely the balls had been outside all day, but they were in the freezer.

**Makes sense to do, but I would’ve thought the players would’ve been informed about the freezer part………lol

So don’t go sleeveless? When told fellow end Justin Tuck was planning the same fashion statement as many of the Packers, the veteran Strahan shivered.

“I told him I’m wearing layers,” Strahan said. “These guys can wear short sleeves. I’m not trying to impress anybody. For what? Oh, I’m strong!

“I guarantee you Justin Tuck’s goose bumps will be bigger than his muscles.”

**I really like it when the players are able to be themselves and show their humor.  The NFL is very good of showing that side of the game.  I know it is just good PR on the NFL part, but without the players being who they are it wouldn’t succeed.

This year sucked for commercials during the football season.  I can’t stand beer, it is disgusting to me, but they usually have some interesting and entertaining commercials.  Coors has been the worst..the use of old NFL press conferences…..I race to hit the mute button………they have sucked big time.  I so hope that they don’t reuse them next year…..that keep ruining the game.

Separated Saudi couple sues to reunite 

**And people have issues with the International Women’s Conference over the issue of abortion……..refusing to see that the majority of the issues that they face are issues such as this……..morons.

I had read the following articles over the last 2 weeks, playing on adding them here.  To me they are issues too big to be ignored.

War Torn, part 1 

War Torn, part 2 

**I firmly believe in personal responsibility, that this country has moved away from, but are so many things that are changed inside a person’s mind due to war.  Between what they see and the need to survive in the most primal way, it is no wonder that some of these veteran’s lose it.  It is so screwed up, because they are passed off into the VA system, which we all know sucked before the increase of current vets, so it is even worst.  I not going to get into that…..since it is a very sore subject with me. Then the victims of these horrible crimes get lost……..

Edwards On O’Reilly: ‘He Has No Idea What He’s Talking About’

**O’Reilly shows his stupidity again (I can’t use the word ignorance…….way too much of a understatement).  I love (NOT) people who act all patriotic and they know everything but in in their defense of failed policies and beliefs refuse to see the truth….the No Spin Zone??  He is nothing but spin…….huge, huge liar.  I just can’t stand the guy because he reminds me of a big ass lying bully…..Sweet Jesus, I Hate Bill O’Reilly anyone?  It really breaks down his bullshit.

Ronald Reagan Is Still Dead

**I’m so tired of them invoking Reagan……..he wasn’t all that great.  And none of the candidates have clue…..ggrrrr

Damn, New England just threw an interception in the end zone…….

Damn, my brain is fried….I spent so much time in the office working on bank reconciliations for last year the last few days.  I would print out transactions from each statement time period and compare them.  It took forever, but it made it easier when I went into quickbooks to do the reconciliation.  Found a few mistakes, about 90% of them happened in July & Aug when we were packing, moving and I was working outside of the house.  All the other changes were just adjusting for the bank accounting and my accounting.  But know that I know the system, it will be much easier to maintain.

Wow, between the all that and the normal 15th bills that I take care of I totally lost track of time.  I didn’t realize that I hadn’t posted since the 10th.

Huck’s Army: Young, Eager and Evangelical 

Speaking about the need for a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between one man and one woman this week, Huckabee said, “What we need to do is to amend the Constitution so it’s in God’s standards rather than try to change God’s standards so it lines up with some contemporary view of how we treat each other and how we treat the family.” 

**This is scary as hell.   James Madison, one of the main the writers of the Constitution, would be rolling in his grave.  You can also add John Adams, George Washington & Thomas Jefferson.  I so hope that Huckabee falls on his face in SC.  We don’t need some one making this country into a theocracy, just like the taliban.

Stand-Up Guy: John McCain’s Campaign Trail Comedy

**I like it when they give a little insight into the candidates.

Mitt Romney vs Glen Johnson aka Lies vs Truth 

**I love this!  Calling him out!  Can someone explain how this journalist was being unprofessional?  As far as I can tell he was actually doing his JOB!  There are so many of them that don’t………remember the bullshit we have forced to believe from Bush and lying cronies?

Estranged husband is freed, then kills wife

**This is screwed up in so many ways!
