Meanwhile, in the picture below, I am saying a Hail Mary for intercessory prayer ref: a pickup truck for myself which I need for roof work and other things. I am reminded of when quarterback Roger Staubach prayed a Hail Mary for what became known as the Hail Mary pass to defeat Minnesota with a long bomb in the last minutes of their playoff game in the ’70’s.
A thought from the past! My dad used to say:
My dad used to tell me similar words to Abraham Lincoln’s words below when he brought me as a youngster on house calls with him when he repaired TV’s and such as an electrical technician.
Later in life, some of the pretty young girls who saw me when I was on-call with my dad remembered me. They looked me up once they grew up so fine and lovely. Who knew that they noticed me when I sat silently in their living room or den? Thank God that my dad had taught me to SHUT UP.
A Note About Shutting Up!
Who are @OccupyDemocrats below alluding to who needs to remain silent in order to hide their foolishness? De Niro or Trump?
Arch Manning (Peyton's nephew) might start for Texas in 2024.
Reports say that current starter Quinn Ewers is not guaranteed the starting QB job next season if he comes back.
N.O. Saints’ Dilemma.
UPDATE: ⚜️ The Saints are confirmed to be sticking with Dennis Allen and Derek Carr (as expected) through at least next season, but all rumors point to New Orleans moving on from Pete Carmichael as the offensive play caller. Long overdue.
What I previously wrote: Am I the only one who sees it? It is not Derek Carr at all. It is the way the stupid coaches stick Taysom Hill in and out at QB totally disrupting Carr’s momentum. They should play Taysom like everyone else… in the conventional, professional football way. Carr (and #JameisWinston) are fine if you stop yanking them in and out for Taysom in the middle of their offensive series. It is juvenile and #bushleague.
How did I get my nickname Ferdie Werdie?
My grandfather Sidney Cates gave me the nickname Ferdie Werdie when I was about 5 yrs old and it has stuck ever since.
I also put the answer on Twitter about who gave me my nickname.
