Another snippet of humor from my mother. Suddenly, I have become older than people who were older than me. Confusing right? If someone was 8 years older than me, I have suddenly become "much older than they are." Example, she asked me if I remembered Gardenia Flowergarden (not a real name). I said, "No" and she said that I went to school with her. Then she proceeded to tell me that she died last week and was 59. 59? I'm not even 40, so unless she was on the 27 year elementary school plan, we probably weren't in the same grade.
2nd factoid of the week...I was totally swayed by that infomercial for the Genie Bra. Allegedly this magic bra will work miracles. I bought this alleged life changer and let's just say I don't think I have experienced anything miraculous. Not exactly a ringing endorsement, eh? Perhaps I will feel differently about the forever lazy footed pajamas. They come in blue so I can channel my inner Smurf.
Wow! Those Big 12 teams have choked as expected and the top 3 teams in the BCS are in the SEC West. After beating Oklahoma State, I expect Iowa State to promptly lay an egg. So let's make some predictions..
LSU vs Woo Pig Sooey-I know everyone hopes the Hogs win as that would completely upset the prognosticators and BCS machine. Not gonna happen. Les is more and purple drank prevails 24-20
UGA vs GT-UGA is the SEC East Champ and I'm not sure how good they really are. Wins over Kentucky and Ole Miss aren't exactly impressive, but a title is a title and a "W" is a "W". GT is in the ACC so that speaks volumes. However, it's a rivalry game so I expect a nail biter. Most UGA games are nail biters as Aaron Murray makes me a bit nervous when he drops back and touches the ball. Love the Brandons (Boykin and Smith) The cuter mascot prevails. Russ 20- Buzz 14
Clemson vs SC-Clemson was completely destroyed by NC State last week and it wasn't in hoops. After that performance you would assume it's a gimme for the Gamecocks. However, it's not. Darth versus Dabeau. Mmmmm. Gotta go with the visor 28-17.
For the first time in years, those Thanksgiving pro games don't look like turkeys.
Detroit vs Green Bay- I really would love for the Lions to win, but they have a tendency to start slow. Tough to do that with the Pack attack. Not a fan of those Aaron Rodgers' commercials,but a check is a check. Packers 35-28
Miami vs Dallas-Miami is on a roll winning their last 3. Too bad they lost the 1st 7. Tony Romo is probably happy he escaped the curse of Jessica Simpson. If that relationship had lasted, her dad would have pitched a cell phone commercial called "Roaming with the Romos". But no mo Romo for Jess. Anyway, Dallas squeaked past the Redskins last week in OT and I expect a close one. Dallas 28- The Hotness that is Jason Taylor 21.
SF vs Baltimore-SF is haute while Baltimore has multiple personalities. I mean, they lost to the Jaguars. SF has to lose at some point and it is Harbaugh versus Harbaugh. I like the Harbaughs. This would be one game where it would totally be acceptable if they got snippy with each other post game. They are brothers and it's expected that you have the occasional altercation with your sibling. Gosh...Jim seems scrappier so I take him in the ultimate squeaker. 17-14
****Painful Game of the Week*****Carolina vs Colts-I love those post score celebrations Cam Newton does. The choreography if fantabulous. I think he will have the opportunity to do several this week so he needs to have a few moves in his back pocket. The Colts had a bye last week so they could prep for their next "L". Cam 31- Curtis 10 (actually I'm not sure they can score 10 but I was feeling generous)
Happy T-Day. Be thankful for the little things because stuff is just stuff. Laugh so hard you cry and be nice to someone just because. Life is short so enjoy it. Gobble gobble!
