Big loss

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

Today the Tennessee titans lost to the Houston Texans, it was a heartbreaking loss. I was on edge for the whole game. Our defense played as bad as the offense played good, it was a very tough game to try and watch, I was without a voice when it was over. Let us hope that the team can turn it around next week a 0-3 hole would be very tough to drag out of to make a run in the playoffs this year.

Lost night

Saturday, August 22nd, 2009

Last night the Tennessee Titans lost to the team that I hate the most of any and I mean any pro team, the DAMN Dallas Cowboys. I have been a Cowboy hater since I can remember, where I grew up in Western Oklahoma we got the Cowboys on TV every week so you either became a Cowboy fan or a COWBOY HATER, and of course I became a hater and I am proud of my hate for them. Let us hope that last nights game is not a sign for the upcoming season but just a preseason game that means nothing at all.

Traffic

Sunday, August 16th, 2009

Last night with a Tennessee Titans game downtown the traffic was horrible, it took me a couple of hours to cover the distance that I need 20-25 minutes to cover on most days. I like to go to the games and I do not mind the traffic if I am prepared for it last night I had forgotten that their was a football game downtown and it snuck up on me. I was not ready for the snarled traffic and the people were very rude about the traffic and that made things much worse, for me anyway. I will be ready next time and pick a different route to get home.

Road repairs

Sunday, August 2nd, 2009

It seems at times that almost every road in middle Tennessee is under some form of repair this year. No matter which route that I choose to go almost any where in town I get delayed by road repairs. On some weekends they have shut down one side of the Interstate 40 route through town, which makes it very hard to get from one side of town to the other, I am glad that I do not have to make many trips to the west side of town anymore. I hope before school starts they get all of these repairs fixed and all the roads open, if not it will be a nasty trip to any spot when the yellow school buses start rolling again.

Cool spell

Saturday, July 18th, 2009

Never that I remember in the month of July have we had such a cool spell in our weather. It will not get out of the seventies today or tomorrow and that is very cool. Tonight they said on the news this morning that we had a good chance to match or beat the record low temperature for this date. Kind of makes me wonder about all this hand wringing about global warming. I like it when it is cool and we get a bit of rain so I am a happy camper this week.
