Did You Say What

These are hard times we're living in, nobody cuts you any slack. We've got space age components, stone age emotions, and today a man had better watch his back. Everybody's selling something, the baron and the bumpkin, so a man's got to fight for what he's got. If what they're offering you looks too good to be true, bet your bottom dollar that it is. I think I'm smelling a rat! Lady luck's been good to me, and I'm grateful as can be. Never thought this crazy ride would ever last, and though nostalgia is fine, I respectfully decline to spend my future living in the past. I've been carrying my load down this same old rocky trail, everyday getting deeper in a rut, working too much, and a dollar's worth a dime, and everybody wants a bigger cut. You must think I'm blind as a bat, I sure appreciate what you're trying to do for me, but I've been there, done that. B.S. blaring from the radio, the TV, hot wind blowing off The Hill, it's a mystery to me we can't agree to disagree, it's looking like we never ever will. Like a drunkard in the night, swinging left and right, Republican or Democrat, well I ain't got no love for none of the above. I don't think so it's a little too pat, don't tell me to take it easy, what's under your hat, no thank you!

Digging Deep

He was two years old when he took the gig. He was already a champion in his world. His dad had been killed by lightening. He was at the presidential inauguration, has won back to back Rose Bowl championships, including the 2006 BCS National Championship. He weighed 2000 lbs., his horn span was 6ft., and ate 60 lbs. of food a day. Only last week he spirited his team to look within and realize that they were worthy, good, and talented. The team learned that validation, took it to the field and will on fields to come, and do what it takes to be the best they can be, champions. That's what he inspired, that is his legacy, and now he passed in his sleep a few days ago, his mission complete. Rest in peace, see you on the other side of Rainbow Bridge.

Bevo

Yes when all else fails you have to believe when Bevo told the team if they didn't play ball he wasn't going with them, that would get their attention. So he stayed home. If they played like a team he'd join them again. Well they won BIG! He's Back!
