Football

I love to watch football. I'm very happy that Indianapolis is still undefeated, just wish I could have seen the game but I'm limited to viewing games that are shown in my area.

The Saints-Redskins game was quite a good one. I'm not sure I like the structure of overtime. I think they should have to play the full time alloted and whoever is ahead at the end is the winner. Just seems like each side should have the opportunity to get the ball. I think I'm in the minority on this.

As a kid, we used to play football in the street. I was very often the quarterback and loved to pull a quarterback sneak. I could throw a pretty mean spiral! That's one advantage to having an older brother - I learned how to play football and baseball by playing with him.

It was always fun when there were cars parked in the street - they added another dimension to your strategy. Of course, it was touch, we didn't have flags and we couldn't tackle. I think that enabled my success. I don't know how hold I was when we stopped playing, but I'm sure it was probably once my brother and the boys across the street started playing real football!

I'm not sure what the dog ate, but woo-eee he has some serious gas today! And he seems to need to be near me today. I'm so lucky! Good thing he's so cute!

Maybe it's his way of paying me back for not taking him with me on my walk today. I met up with some friends over in N. Portland for a new route. I wanted to see what it was like before I take him. He can be a bit of a handful at times and once in awhile I like to walk unencumbered! It was a really nice walk and the company and weather was wonderful, too.

Looking forward to the game tonight, Arizona vs. Minnesota. AZ better win! I've become a fan of Larry Fitzgerald now that I follow him on Twitter and have read a couple articles about him. I think he's a good role model!

Half time is over in the Seattle-SF game so I'm gonna go finish watching and probably finish making the scarf I'm working on. I love Sunday's at home!
