Let’s see if he has his explosion back in training camp. Then I’ll join the retirement crowd.

But you’re coming 😉

#saintsitis is a serious disease. Treatments are only effective with wins. 🤪

For French Army re-enacting, I needed a new cartridge box. If they were made properly in USA, I’d gladly buy here. $35 to UPS on top of the $300 I already paid, and I consider myself lucky. 🙄

The spinning teacups used to kill me back in the day when my kids were little. 🤪😉

Going upstairs to watch the plane take off next to the tower, then walking past the Prager Inc’s gear display (father’s employer) was mandatory for a NOLA childhood.

My wife constantly misplaces things, so we’ve been using Tile products as a cheap fix. I’d offer they work when they work, but every now and then, won’t respond for some unknown reason. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I don’t move enough to justify a $75 shoe. 🤷🏻‍♂️😉

From a Cubs POV, the damning thing is how the family continues to spread their arms around Wrigleyville. New hotels/casino, demanding more revenue from stands outside Wrigley (even though they agreed to current contract splitting %), & not seeing anything on the field. We’re always told 2 more yrs🙄

Wholeheartedly agree. The Dodgers being the “evil empire” just gives everyone a target to compete against.

Cubs are top 5 ish in revenue, but 20 something in spending, counting even the millions we’re still paying Heyward to wear Dodger blue. 😉

Dodgers are a real estate tax write off masquerading as a baseball team.

I can accept that, they,Yankees/Mets, all have deep pockets & are willing to spend some loose change from the sofa cushions.

I’m beyond hacked off that the Ricketts treat my beloved Cubs just like WGN did. Not spending. 🙄

Wife had hip replacement. They had her up and about immediately, but used a walker for weeks. Lots of PT.
