NFL Update

I was so glad to avoid pro football almost entirely this past Sunday.

My decision to get out and the eventual sightings did relate to the two NFL games in which teams joined the Cincinnati Bengals at (8-0), halfway through the 16 game schedule.

The Carolina Panthers went to (8-0), beating the (6-2), 3 point favorite, Green Bay Packers, surely disappointing the throng of obvious Packers’ fans lined up outside a place to watch the game. They waited at least a half hour to ENTER(think “The Sunshine Boys”) the premises while the “Pack” waited way too long to play well, the game not as close as the (37-29) score might indicate.

Meanwhile the New England Patriots also are (8-0) after a 17 point win, as 2 touchdown favorites vs the (3-5) Washington Redskins.

In walking to my car, I saw some young people including a lady clad in a Tom Brady jersey throwing the “pig” around. Having just commented to a friend that Mr. Brady may have some connection to the area, a look at some of the younger faces made that assertion, while far from certain, plausible, if not probable.
