You have to figure out some way to get entertainment from these terrible teams LOL. <br /><br />@Carrie, oh, my brother-in-law is a Vikings fan and always fusses about their mishaps. It's true, I love the fun of getting together and watching sports.<br /><br />@Tonja, I hope the Bears do well! The stadium thing here is a disgrace and such an embarrassment, sometimes I can't believe it still.<br /><br />@Empty, LOL LOL, yeah, the Panthers aren't much to write home about, are they? We are in this together LOL. I remember those Cowboys days, you must have had a lot of fun cheering for them back then.<br /><br />@Carol, oh, I'm envious of Steelers fans for all the great teams you have had. But you are definitely right about the Pirates, they can never seem to get it together.<br /><br />@Carolyn, LOL, I know, it is confusing. But really it makes more sense to call soccer football since the players use their feet for everything. Your way is more logical LOL.<br /><br />@Yvonne, oh, how interesting that your son played in Spain! I bet you had a great time watching him. <br /><br />@Carol, LOL, bah is right. That's the fun thing about sports, there's always next year. Or maybe in the Bengals case, next decade LOL.<br /><br />@Robyn, thanks! Maybe you will finally bring them some luck. If you manage it, you will have my eternal gratitude LOL. <br /><br />@Jules, oh, I'm still too broken-hearted about my Bucks losing on Saturday.

We used to kid that if someone left a couple game tickets in his cars, when he came back, he'd have a couple more. Or if a person called the stadium to ask what time the game started, he'd be asked, "What time can you get here?" So, I feel your pain. Our Braves and Falcons have gotten a LOT better since we moved here in '71, and I'm sure your Bengals will give you something to cheer about, too.Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.com
