“Here I Go Again,” That’s “Left” Mr. Reagan

November 24, 2016

The middle tilt today is the most meaningful, as it involves the (9-1) Dallas Cowboys, the team with the NFL’s best record and the (6-3-1) Washington team (normally their team nickname would be cited, but taking a cue from Blue Jays announcer Jerry Howarth, who does not cite the less offensive nickname of the Cleveland baseball team, on this day which evokes the slaughter of those people here first, I will not cite it either), the one with the second best record of the 6 NFL teams, all game and spread, “set up” winners last week, that are playing today.

Back to numbers, as I lived it/ate it/breathed it (all past tense, but falling asleep during a good play last night, I sadly realized I put too much into this and not enough into other “thats” (i.e. good culture, not the lowest common denominator/reality television type that has now SPAWNED a United States president) as the two teams, Dallas and Washington, have won Supes either 10 or 20 years apart, three times.

Dallas has won 5 Supes (’71, ’77. ’92, ’93 and ’95) while “Wash” triumphed in such tilts first 10 years before ’92 in 1982, next their second Supe win was 10 years after Dallas’ second in 1987.

Washington’s third was in 1991, twenty years after Dallas’ first, a glorious win in 1971, ending so much frustration in bids for the title, far more in a compacted 5 season span (1966-1970), than the much ballyhooed Cubs, with their owner’s family/Trump campaign donor(s), suffered in 108 years, before their 2016 W.S. win.

If you are first to write in with the reason Bill Jurges is pictured above, I will not only cite your name but within reason give you a chance not only to air your views, perhaps much different than mine, in “comments” but also in edited form as a post.

I will reveal why tomorrow or the next day and do so in again, seeking perspective.
