“Doesn’t matter if you’re black or white…”
Tuesday - 16 November 2010
The second half of November is upon us.
Last night, everydave and Nathan came over to watch the Eagles-Redskins game. More on that later.
After the game, I went to work on my model railroad. I was trying to incorporate the 90º crossover and two more switches… but couldn’t get a the pieces to line up. Rather than fight it (too much), I decided to call it a night and ponder the issue today. If nothing else, I’ll probably just do another reversing loop and find a way to throw a spur or two off the main line.
Chew on This: Food For Thought/Quote of the Day
Today’s “Magnetic Poetry Self Affirmation Quote of the Day” comes in response to the feeling of being overwhelmed that a coworker is experiencing:
FYI: I refuse to let the small stuff and stupid people be a problem anymore.
I think that can be applied in many situations…
Instant Replay: Football
Philadelphia Eagles at Washington Redskins
59 - 28
Wow.
Seriously… that’s just about the most accurate way to describe last night’s match-up between the Eagles and the ‘Skins.
Last night’s broadcast of Monday Night Football should have been renamed “The Michael Vick Show.” He did it all:
- Threw four (4) touchdowns;
- Ran for two (2) touchdowns;
- Rushed for eighty (80) yards;
- Threw for 333 yards;
- No interceptions
- No fumbles
He also became the first QB in NFL history with:
- …at least 300 yards passing,
- …50 yards rushing,
- …four passing touchdowns and
- …two rushing touchdowns
in a game. One game. The man was money. All night long.
Speaking of money, the Redskins’ new $78 million man, QB Donovan McNabb would have had a much better outing… if his receivers had bothered to show up. McNabb’s passes were pretty much on the money all night, but the receiving corps didn’t seem to put up a lot of effort to catch and/or hold onto the ball.
