Anytime it’s been ill conceived enough that I somehow become the designated driver? Well most of those adventures have not ended proper and it saddens me to inform that this jaunt did not either. The game I love can only be produced one way, for television. I made a decision to venture

A very slow day today, as the US had President's Day & Canada has Family Day. Fortunately, America's 45th president has combined the two into one. NFL Nuggets: Both Pouncey brothers have retired from the NFL. Maurkice spent his whole career with the Steelers, and Mike played for the Dolphins &
