Now with forced idle time, I may get into college football. At least it seems honest. And eminently watchable below the “big” draws. Only wish my alma mater, South Hamtramck Institute of Technology, was fielding a gridiron team.

You deviously clever dude. Well played!
Thank you, sir! High praise from you!
