You guys are tough tonight. I went to the game and thought we played pretty well. Had some skilled plays and dominated in the third.
Met Rush tonight at the game with my daughter. He was very nice and had a few good lines that had my daughter laughing in the car on the way home - something about players with prostitutes and a kilo of cocaine - thanks Rush! Just adds to the memories....
I have got to hear this one. Please Rush!
Hey AJ and every one! DC, thanks for the props, I’m humbled. I feel
I’ve gained a very good friend in you, and that ain’t bad, at 58 years old!
Oh Yeah!! Felt honored to have Beags stop by my section with his daughter, on his last game as a season ticket holder! Enjoyed it much! Although our meeting was short, it was very pleasant! Maybe we’ll have a chance to talk a little longer at a future game!
Maaco, you’ll be happy to know that Beags daughter sported a Carlson jersey!! We made some light hearted fun about it, and she went along with it like a trooper! AJ , you’ll understand when I say sometimes you just meet folks and feel the warmth right away! This was exactly the case! Thanks Beags
Now for the letdown, AJ, to what may appear to have been a JUICY story! LMAO!!
You know me enough to be just a little cynical when it comes to my belief that ALL
of our pro sports have evolved over the years, to become more soft and less gritty! My distaste for the popular media, turning our sports into soap-opera type melodrama, on the shady personal lives of many pro athletes today, coupled with the DE-EMPHASIS on strong character, teamwork, hustle etc!
Since Beags and I seem to share an appreciation for athletes with character, and hustle, as well as “team oriented”, selfless players, I had simply mentioned how a Great coach like Vince Lombardi, would be turning over in his grave today! Then added something along the lines of how the media would much prefer to report on a story, NOWADAYS, that involved an athlete cheating on his wife, in a hotel, “with a prostitute, and a kilo of cocaine”!!! Rather than a story on a player who exhibited selfless sacrifice on the field! LOL!!!
Glad you’re daughter got a chuckle out of it, Beags, that makes it worth it! 👍 Feel free to contact me if and when you make another game! And I got news for ya, buddy, referencing your mother-son/father- daughter thread!!! Your wife would be correct!! YOU WON !!
Rush
