Talking head Minnesota team rant

Posted on 8:02 AM by Unknown
Grinders Warehouse - the original Poker blog is back up and getting attention in case you are looking for poker thoughts and my current attitudes towards poker.
-------------------------------------------

This is not a Favre rant. More of a Talking head Minnesota team rant.  I thought Farve was OK in this game. Flashes of goodness.

The thing was that the announcers kept making excuses for Favre about how he does not "know" the receivers and he got tired because practice is not like real game experience.

ummmmm - is this not what the preseason is for?  Perhaps instead of sitting all the starters on the last preseason game so they don't get hurt, it would have been a good time to get in shape and learn MORE about the receivers. The Saints were ripe for the picking.  Because Favre got tired and did not "know" his receivers they lost the game.  Sitting your starters in the preseason LOST one real season game!

Rogers hung out with his receivers in the off season, had cook outs and formed relationships!  Did Favre?
-----------------------------------
HA - I am SO lucky.

On Facebook I had commented that I found my 1972 Sophomore yearbook and I compared  what I looked like in 1972 to what I looked like in 1973 -  - something happened and I went from Geek to Freak. 

I also found a photo of Elweed in 1972 . . .WITH HAIR!!  So I took some photos this morning but my ScanDisk corrupted. You will have to wait.

------------------------------------
Watching more of Inside 911 they say that a typical Fire fighter in New York carries 110 pounds of extra equipment and "on average" they would take 1 hour for every 25 floors to climb.  So they were figuring the main group of fire fighters would take about 4 hours to reach the blaze in the towers.  In interviews no one even considered the towers would collapse.

Speaking of Columbus - a former friend (use to be friend but since his most current blog could be fuel for him being shunned I must shun him also even though it's only a shunning on the outside and I will secretly call him a friend to selected people)  . . . . . is that too long to be in parentheses?   ANYWAY - a different friend of mine called me over and said HEY - MR. Columbus - I have a bone to pick with you.

Seems he was all pumped up to come to the Columbus Free Market as it was their last one or something. He get's there at 11:00 and they were all starting to pack up. So - he decided to go downtown to look at the stores. He drives and sees an Antique store with OPEN in the window. He parks the car, and goes to the store but wait . . . they are in reality CLOSED!!  So he walks around the corner and see's another OPEN sign . . . . .NOPE - it's actually CLOSED!!!   WTF!!!

But on the other side of the street is a place that will open SOON but are also having a closing sale.  He waits and they really do open and have GREAT stuff . . but then he is told that this is their last day and they will be closed until Christmas!

IS ANYTHING OPEN IN COLUMBUS?
