Week 8 and 4-2, who would have thought? Add in the "how we got here" and it's even more amazing.
Bungles game can be seen as a "bad" night for the Efense, our offense actually looked pretty good.
Onto the Green Bay Packers. Love hasn't been playing top notch as of late. Their defense has been average. Our offense should be able to move the ball in both rush and pass. This will come down to Author Smith and his recently improved chess match ability. Ultimately it will come down to coaching and game plan. I hope the mini-bye has helped in giving time to coaching to put together a formidable game plan on both sides of the ball (mostly concerned on the D side).
Green Bay------at-----PITTSBURGH STEELERS
Tie-breakers
1) Rushing yards J. Warren example 25 / 125
2) Johnno Smith receiving stats / yards example 4 / 7 / 58 / 2 TD
3) I spent __?___ hrs hard roto-tilling my 4 garden spots, also had a "vision". How many hours / minutes did I
--------------------spend actual roto-tilling? Comments on vision & type requested...........
here would be NO PRIZE
Swiss cheese with holes all over, Favre thievery, my Aunt owns a share and votes, ----------------------------- 25.5
Extra time to game plan, A "D" who is mad, Watt has a hip, Aaa-ron's vendetta, Jones wants a QB tackle------ 31
Tie breaks
1) 18 / 87
2) 5 / 8 / 53 / 1TD
3) _____ hrs I think the vision involved "underwear" grandma----------
HOT Topic: Black Man / White Boy
BACK STORY: I was 7 yrs old, 1967 and home alone on my Uncles Dairy farm, in a no-where place. I stayed home to do evening chores as that was my Job. We milked about 30-40 cows (had milking machines).
---- It was about 10am in the morning and there was a knock at the door. I answered and to my surprise there stood a Black man. He said his name was Lewi (just like the hit song at the time) and if my parents were home. I said no & it was my uncle/aunt and they went sight seeing and wouldn't be back until late/early evening.
---- My eyes must have been huge as he noticed my amazement. He asked if I had ever seen a Black Man before and I said no, never. My other uncles had spoken negatively (prejudice) about black men as to their experience with them in the military. I wasn't influenced as I had never met a man of color.
---- Lewi held out his arm and said go ahead, touch my arm as you will see it's just like yours. Remember this was all happening on the door step and I was 7 years old. I reached out an touched his arm and yes, he was correct as it felt just like mine. We shook hands as I told him my name and continued talking. I'm sure compared to this day and age, I gave way to much information to a stranger who didn't feel like a stranger at all.
---- Lewi wanted to rent a room as he was driving truck for the gravel pit across the road. I told him he would have to ask my uncle. Lewi stayed and we visited the whole day and when it was time for me to do chores, he dug right in and helped me get done in record time. As a kid and even now as an adult, Lewi would be my friend with how he told his stories and handled himself. I showed un-tainted child curiosity and loved our interaction.
---- My uncle came home and Lewi asked about a room and my Uncle said yes. I had to clean out the back door entry closet floor, put down some bedding and that became my bed for the next month and a half or so as Lewi got my bedroom. I didn't care as He and & I became pretty good friends. I could have cared less what color he was and in my heart knew my other uncles were wrong (prejudices).
MORAL to the Story: I think a lot of prejudice is experience from pre-determined conscious influence of others. In my case it was my other uncles negativity. My Kids were very little and had a near same experience at a groceries store with a handicapped (Mexican) who did near the same of showing my kids the hook like thumb on the end of his arm. My kids were 5 & 6 at the time. It doesn't matter what color and who is showing who role. The positive experience is the root of equality to all. I don't have all the answers or scenarios for everyone, but this episode in my life I accredit to my not caring of skin color, but more of human decency / honest / integrity. This is not intended to be a debate of a justification, but just an accounting of how I grew up and experienced many different methods of life. Thank You for reading my story.

I thank everybody for their participation and comradery.
Question of the day: Will berm be able to stay up for the entire SNF game and be able to remember the actual game?
