Well it looks like the three of us are just about neck and neck so far. Steve and myself picked the correct upset as the Cajuns were not Ragin, just grumbling, as the only difference.

The Third Man on TCM tonight.  You know who you are.
It is also on Netflix, albeit with Cotton's opening narration and occasional German subtitles. I also own a DVD. So although I have holiday stuff tonight,  I can watch the greatest movie in the history of mankind at my leisure

One of the more entertaining bowl games of the 1994 season. The 1995 Florida Citrus Bowl.

There's something else I remember about that season too but I just can't put my finger on it. The number 49 seems to have something to do with it. Now what was it? Hmmm.

Oh wait, now I remember. Collins was a drunken asshole but he has a rifle arm.

For a minute I thought it was this but the 49 didn't fit.


And also as the fates would have it, a shout out to Scotty. ;-)

When you have a Dairy Cattle Teaching and Research Center, you don't just own being a Cow College, you embrace it.

Never brushed our cows. They did like it when you scratched them on the forehead.

Had a horse I brushed though.

Forty years ago the first live ESPN broadcast began:

If you're a fan, if you're a fan, what you'll see in the next minutes, hours and days to follow may convince you you've gone to sports heaven."


Lee Leonard, ESPN’s first Sports Anchorman, died today at 89.

Terpsdream is losing ground going into the first turn with RunStevoRun and CapsPride neck and neck.

Among this morning’s text messages:

A friend of mine has two tickets for the Rose Bowl, both box seats. He paid $2,500 each but he didn't realize last year when he bought them, it was going to be on the same day as his wedding.

 If you are interested, he is looking for someone to take his place...

It's at The Methodist Church  in Murfreesboro  at 3:00. The bride's name is Nicole, she's 5'4", about 115 lbs, good cook too.....

She'll be the one in the white dress.
