MrZ says, “Roll Tide!”
I believe I’ve mentioned a few times that my husband and I like college football. I am a Tennessee Vols fan since I was born and raised in Volunteer Country. MrZ, on the other hand, is a Crimson Tide fan. Because he has a low IQ. My husband is much more rabid of a “fan” than I am.

Since it occurred after school, while the kids were waiting for the bus, the security guy wrote it down in his... Read More
The religion of sports and the insanity of its congregation
We watched Fever Pitch last night, which I liked for MANY reasons. But my favorite thing about the movie? I think it VERY accurately portrayed the emotions behind having sports teams to root for. “Dog People” always agree with each other that “Non-Dog People” don’t understand how we can get SO upset when a pet dies. It’s an emotional connection... Read More
