The story of Mia going to the Bills game caught my eye before the game started. 

I read the background story - she was wearing a Niners hat, but she loves the Bills equally.

Mia didn’t watch the entire game.

Seems someone pushed her down the stairs.

The family left early.

I don’t watch college football either, but my college buddy loves Michigan so I usually look for their score (so I can bust his chops if they lose).

They were playing Ohio State - my buddy hates them - but Michigan hasn’t had a great season.

They won the game in a huge upset.

Then after the game the Michigan players planted their team flag at midfield.

Of course, a brawl broke out between the teams and the athletes were pepper sprayed to break it up.

What the hell is going on???

Most of the people I listened to on sports talk radio bashed the Ohio State side…

…saying that they lost.

They didn’t want a flag planted they should’ve won the game!

That’s garbage!

Of course they aren’t going to let the other team plant their flag on their logo.

And Michigan won…

…does that allow them to do anything they want?

What happened to sportsmanship????

It’s not restricted to football either - a few years ago a group of Dodgers fans beat up a Giants fan - put the guy in a coma.

It’s a damn game!

Push a kid down the stairs????

Get pepper sprayed?

They’re going to do through the ruins of this society…

…”this species amused itself to death.”

Brainless, brainless people.

My Buddy, Dave

Way back in 1997, I started working with a steel erection company out of Syracuse. I was coming straight from a long stint with a steel erector here in Buffalo so I knew my stuff when it came to steel erection safety rules. On day one, I met with the safety director and he was just getting started as a safety guy, but man, he certainly cared about the guys he worked with. Dave was a good man from the start. He’d say things like: “You’re so full of beans.” Just a down to earth, hardworking guy who became a fast friend. We drove all around New York State setting up jobs. I always let Dave drive so that I could rest. One fine day, way up North of Syracuse, we passed a state trooper.  I glanced at the speedometer. “You’re screwed,” I said, and seconds later, the lights came on. Dave was beside himself.  The cop stopped by the window, grabbed the license and registration and headed back to his vehicle. “Here’s the thing,” I said. “You’re pissed, but you’re such a good guy that I be...

Mom & Ollie

 Ollie Stadium is a mess. The heavy rains rendered the backyard a mud pit and even though we threw in the side yard, the Big O was looking for more, and we were both covered in mud. I had to take some steam out of him somehow so I suggested we go visit Grandma. Ollie hates the car, but he laid quietly as we made the trip. We even brought the football because there is plenty of room to play at Grandma’s. Mom opened the door and started laughing. I thought about the love she had for every single dog we ever had. Oliver was quick to give my Mom a kiss, and then he stood beside her. The love between Mom and Dogs is a mutual bond. Through the years, Mom would make breakfast for the dogs.  Fried eggs, toast, bacon… She would wrap Christmas gifts for them. “To Jeter, Love Santa,” she would write on the cards. They played with the big chicken that made a lot of noise. Mom tossed the football and Ollie brought it back to her. As the visit drew to a close I headed for the door.  “C...

My sister’s book is out there! Go get it!! It makes me so proud to see the book on Amazon, knowing that it’s very, very great! It’s been a long, long time since we were out in California, brainstorming my stories long before they were published. Carrie Lynn was writing, writing and writing some more through the years and I kept telling her… …”Go for it!” Well, she did!  To amazing results. Of course I was able to read the book as it was being put together, but I ordered a copy from Amazon yesterday and can’t wait to read it again. The shoe is on the other foot now as I have been sitting on a lot of my writing lately. I plan on getting it out there before the end of 2024, but for now: Carrie takes center stage! And it’s so great… …go get a copy!
