Yes. I just liked the picture. I love Godzilla. No reference in the blog.
It has nothing to do with anything I wrote. I just posted a picture of a random monster and thought about Godzilla.
Read it, don’t read it, I don’t care…just needed to get some things off my chest.
In no particular order of chronology or importance…
Not on the clock. Sunday afternoon rant. Not a speed version. Let’s turn and burn.

- Greetings and salutations, people. Thanks for coming aboard (the boat). It is not a speed version, but I also don’t plan on spending my entire football afternoon blogging. I have things to do, so let’s get through this. Clear the list for a Monday.
- Told you, although I wasn’t exactly splitting the atom. I said Manziel is good on the mic, and that his words were classy about growing up, but that I didn’t believe him. Today? He is fined for a party and then being late for treatment the next day. Josh Gordon was there and suspended for the final game. I guess we just need a third bad guy, and we will have the 2015 version of the Three Amigos.
- I would like to announce that because of errands, I FINALLY tried to use TIVO to record a sporting event. The event has be back at square one and I will forever just change my life because of a sports schedule. I miss the first bit of the Louisville-Kentucky game because it was recording, and then Lindsey’s dad (not his fault) turned off the breaker to put up a chandelier and the game was GONE. Could have been worse. I could have had more errands to do.
- Sure, last night’s blog was written after some pops, but I am just as excited today about meeting the NCAA basketball theme guy as I was last night. Sing it again. I met the guy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhC5-uIJJWQ
- There HAS to be a Vegas bet about naming ALL of the Bears players and personnel who are traded/ released/ fired.
- I don’t watch all of the bowl games, and I don’t care about USC, but I always have a 2% part of me that smirks when Nebraska football loses. Ha.
- Congrats to Penn State for winning its first bowl game post Sandusky. Baby steps to normalness. I don’t know how you can’t root for them unless they are playing your team.
- In case you care, I didn’t plant a flu virus in Cincinnati, but I would if I knew how.
- I didn’t enter a bowl pool for the third year in a row. I LOVE those ones that let you rank by points your sureness on each game. It just sounded like a lot of work once again this year.
- How come Kevin Garnett blowing in someone’s ear is SO much more cool than idiot Lance Stephenson doing it?
- So, let me get this straight. The Falcons play this week like all other NFL teams and Atlanta has already hired a search firm?
- Josh McDaniel has apparently turned his phone from vibrate only to a ring tone.
- So, I went to the gay bar down the street with Lindsey and friends, and there was karaoke. I created a list of what I THOUGHT that crowd would like, and then took a survey. Since I wasn’t in the mood for Madonna or Lady Gaga, I decided to sing We Built this City. I killed it in my humble opinion.
- HEY. I got hit on after it.
- The Raiders are in town, which means there were scary, scary people wandering down 16th Street Mall today earlier when I was down there.
- I realized that I have not used hair conditioner or fabric softener in about 15 years.
- If you ever venture downtown to the best kept happy hour secret in Denver at La Fondue, get the Shrimp Scampi (for $6) and thank me whenever you have some free time. The sauce should be illegal.
- No, I don’t drink wine.
- Maybe I am glad I DIDN’T get in an NCAA pool. I believe I would have thought that Duke was a lock over ASU.
- The only thing worse than me wearing a turtleneck sweater (to the symphony) from 1987 is that Lindsey’s mom complimented me on it about 10 minutes after Lindsey said she planned on trashing it VERY soon.
- I am sure that Starlin Castro didn’t actually DO the shooting, but being questioned in a shooting probably isn’t a positive thing on any level.
- Is Harbaugh signed on at Michigan yet? Just do it, bro. Beat the firing from the 49ers and it will be cooler.
- Announce it MID game or something when you all are losing again.
- I am beyond excited for the Steelers-Bengals game tonight. Glad we are already in the playoffs so I can’t TOTALLY be let down.
- This is fun. Houston needs a Charger loss, a Baltimore loss, and a win themselves. All of those things are happening right now.
- THAT would make the MVP a LOT simpler.
- When Art Briles gets mad at his offense not scoring every 45 seconds next year, we will be witnessing a family fight.
- I also need to finish this blog because…you know…the Roland is 15 feet behind me.
- I am glad that Mr. Noah finally realizes that Anthony Davis is a “hell of a talent” and then said it into a microphone. Not exactly Michael Jordan or Bill Russelll saying something obvious, but ok. I met Bill. He is grumpy for a guy with more rings than fingers. .
- I admit to not reading the article about Michael Sam with Oprah. If I read the word “Oprah,” I make Forrest Gump look like one slow dude.
- That means I run when I read her name.
- Hold on. I am editing this during the Steelers game. I went to UVA. I accepted that Ohio State says THE. I accept that Miami idiots say THE U. But i almost fell off the couch when Gresham says THE Oklahoma University.
- Hold on again. Someone from USC said THE University. This is getting out of control. OSU and UVA have claim.
- Lindsey just said she has never heard THE University of Virginia. That is because we KNOW we are. We don’t have to say it into a mic. Similar to me not wearing Sigma Pi letters on campus. I just knew it.
- If anyone else can tell me who is coaching the New Jersey Devils, please feel free to give me a ring. I believe I read something about a three headed coaching thing. As always, I need a flow chart.
- I watched the middle of the Gonzaga-BYU game but not the end. I basically watched the BYU comeback. I am glad my Final Four team fought them off to win. They need a #2 seed to get two easy first round games.
- I think we could have made a new reality show on taping Rex Ryan move out of his office before he was fired.
- And anything his brother did in preparation for the Bucs.
- VERY cool story about the Carolina assistant who saved Christmas for a random family.
- It is official. My days of busting on Samsung phone owners is done. The new Droid only had one size option. Let’s just say I am on the high side for large phones. Jokes. Done.
- I returned a water resistant phone case that cost $90 that I am blaming a hangover for getting sucked into buying. I got a basic case. The freaking home button didn’t work on the expensive one, and apparently I am just in a long line of “home button” problems. How does that stay on the market? It took the guy TEN minutes to get the damn thing OFF.
- Sometimes Lindsey shows me somewhat funny stuff she finds online. But, I have to pay attention, because every few things she shows me, one turns out like this. CLICK on this people. I admit to writing several notes like this, and this will make you roll of the couch (if you are sitting on one). http://www.buzzfeed.com/adamdavis/writing-while-drunk?utm_term=.moP5moRP8k
- A couple of notes from my Sunday. It is 30 degrees out. I still wore cargo shorts and sandals (without socks). I walked 7 blocks twice. I am special.
- Did anyone think that the Lions were going to beat the Packers at Lambeau? The Rodgers injury is giving more stress than blocks of cheese do.
- Falcons. At your crib. Playoffs on the line. You get destroyed? What?
- I think the way this pans out is that I need to find Denver-Pittsburgh tickets. Vince? Steve? Mark? Last playoff game I went to between Steelers and Broncos, I got Tebowed. I have video. You should WANT me to come there.
- That is it. I have a busy day of sitting on my couch and thinking about Broncos fans sweating out the fact that if they lose and the Bengals win, they get booted from the #2 seed. So, UNLIKE the Broncos NOT helping out LAST week in kicking out the Bengals from the playoffs possibly, the Steelers WILL help out the Broncos.
- I despise Carrie Underwood. Not as much as Cris Collinsworth, but in the ballpark.
- That is it. Hope you enjoyed or are at least more informed. Will I blog tomorrow? That is a…dammit, Bryce. As one shepherd said to the other shepherd, let’s get the flock out of here.
