Or am I getting too far off topic?

 

Episcopius has been extremely gracious to our banter.  Gratias tibi......
I was a great Dallas cowboy fan once, the players mostly had character.
Coach Tom Landry was a man's man. Times have changed.
Just can't get my head into watching so many of the over paid spoiled protesters play ball.

Buddy will have his work cut out for him.

(I don't know if he plays golf, john.)      ( Perhaps miniature golf?)

Some months back, LadyKay began the now-famous thread THERE's A MOUSE IN MY KITCHEN. A true story.

I had two different true stories that related to it.

In college, a gf called me and said she had a mouse in her kitchen. I took a machete and my CAT - Melchisidec - and went over.

Mel immediately jumped out the open kitchen window and I never saw him again. Much later, my gf said she had seen MEL, that he joined a gang of alley cats that roamed the alley near her off-campus apartment.

Much much later, I lived in a trailer near Ft Hood Texas. A MOUSE took up residence. I named him Buddy. The circumstances of his demise are not clear. I may have thrown him outside in a trash bag in freezing weather.

I have since tried to commemorate Buddy the Mouse in threads here. He has died of covid and come back to life, he has been assassinated and come back to life. He is running for President.

His adventures continue.

And that folks, is the rest of the story....

There is no "OFF TOPIC" for this thread.

My first "job" was at 14 - a "ball-shagger" at Baylor basketball games - my friend and I sat under one basket - 2 other guys sat under the other basket. We ran after errant basketballs and threw them back to the referee.

It is an unusual year - the Baylor mens basketball team (#2 in the nation) outranking the women - who are #8 right now.  

The Dallas Cowboys played in mid-70's in NFC championship game - lost to Vikings. I attended. Fran Tarkenton was a combination of Mahomes and Brady on that day - completely unstoppable.

The Baylor guys beat Texas recently. But beware - there are a HANDFUL of excellent teams in the Big 12 Conference in mens basketball. I mean like 5 out of the top 25 are Big 12 teams. The women do not have that level of competition. The Baylor women's coach and a couple of post players have already had covid. Baylor mens coach had covid early.

Before Abraham was, Buddy AM.

That would explain the mouse in a trash bag I found at my doorstep in freezing weather in my brief stay in Ft. Hood. The mouse was pretty annoyed and took off the next day.

Sounds like that was Buddy allright.

I only golf on professional courses . . . Once you pop the ball into the clown's mouth, and his eyes light up . . . you can never go back to those big courses with their boring greens separated by long areas of grass . . . 

AHEMMMmmmmm . . . . .

Baylor men still undefeated and #2 in nation. There are now SIX Big 12 Conference men's teams in Top 25. Baylor women are #7; there is only one other women's team from Big Twelve that is ranked.
