Coach

Text message broadcast to my team yesterday:

Game today at 7 pm, be there at 6. Bring all jerseys. I am watching the Champion's League game after our game (on tape delay). If you ruin the game for me, your playing time will be adversely impacted for the foreseeable future.

Cajun Signs: Pop's Black Pot

I went to lunch at a local place called Pop's Black Pot this afternoon - Good 'ol Cajun Cooking. The Tuesday lunch special is smothered chicken with your choice of sides. It was fall off the bone good. Monday is meatloaf day. You might find me there next week. Check out Pop's website here.

Referee

Me: Are you kidding me?!?!?!?!? He clearly got the ball on that tackle!
Referee: It doesn't matter. It was a dangerous tackle.
Me: What made it dangerous?!?!
Referee: It was from behind.
Me: It was from the side.
Referee: No.
Me: Am I going to change your mind if we keep talking?
Referee: No.
