Zombo Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 A perfect start for The Great Zomboni ... 4-0 Against the Spread. But we need an actual Browns victory before Selma will let me do a tequila shot off her cleavage. So let's see what is in store for this week... Cincinnati at Chicago, Sunday 1:00 PM Nice little win to start the season for the Bungles. But we all know Cincinnati can't have nice things ... so this week they lose to the man they belovedly called the Red Rifle. Dalton's boys pull out the win after the Chicago Front Seven control Cincy's line all day. BEARS 23 BUNGLES 17 Houston at Cleveland, Sunday 1:00 PM When I see Houston @ Cleveland, I get visions of the baby blue run-n-shoot offense taking on the Dawg Defense in the Pound with biscuits flying. But, alas, it is just the Texans, which should be a good opportunity for the Browns new defense to shine. Ground and Pound. BROWNS 27 TEXANS 10 Las Vegas at Pittsburgh, Sunday 1:00 PM On the other hand, when I see "Las Vegas" I have a soulless feeling. But ... Raiders @ Steelers ... Now THAT was the best rivalry of the 70s. But Jack Tatum is not walking through that door, so this version of the Raiders will fall short at the confluence. STEELERS 34 RAIDERS 27 Kansas City at Baltimore, Sunday Night Football 8:20 PM The Ratbirds get to start the season losing two straight games in Prime Time ... Because there is no way they are beating these Chiefs. CHIEFS 37 RAVENS 26 TGZ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son outlawed his Mom from any in-person Aggie games after we lost the one to Baylor she finally attended back in 1985. He lifted it for another A&M Baylor game in 2004 since we had gone all that time without losing to them (one tie). Result? A one point loss in OT when Baylor went for the 2 point conversion after A&M had scored the first TD with an XP kick. She's been back on the ban since that game.😱🏈🤣 Baylor students tore down the goal posts and carted them out of the stadium all the way to the Baylor campus which at that time was on the other side of I-35. 19 years of frustration carried along with them. PS-Oh, and he shoos her out of the TV room if she tries to walk in to see what's happening. Invariably the other team scores within minutes of an entry.🤮 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jets Browns double OT playoff game. It's looking bleak. Browns down with 4 minutes to go. Fans leaving the stadium. Sue says, God if the Browns win, I don't care if I ever see the Browns win another game. Request granted. For the next 20 years, anytime we took her to a Browns game they lost. Didn't matter where. Outside the stadium late for kickoff, Browns ahead of the Steelers. Second she walks in, Steelers score- and of course we lost. Actually 20 years later we took her to another Jets game, (we won) she started crying and we now consider the curse sort of broken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on PTG at home giving the points. KC @ BLT (+3.5) - BLT plus points at home? Gimme that all nite long. LJ running for over a buck is the difference in a shoot out. CIN (+3) @ CHI... strength on strength and weakness v weakness I hthink Cin's O is stronger than CHI's D thanks to Mr. Burrow. and CHI's weakness is weaker than CIN's D thanks to any QB CHI puts on the field... (although Mr. Fields shows more promise than I allowed for in our draft debates). So gimme CIN and the points here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learn from my son's and my Baylor mistake. It was near 20 years into the ban, but still in full force. The "curse" is a lifetime thing.👸 And we thought it was just Baylor. We also took her to see us play Arkansas St. one year because it was going to be an A&M blowout in Mike Sherman's first game in his first year in 2008. They lost of course. And the curse lasted his whole tenure. 😱 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My possum story? Recycle bin in the garage. rattle, rattle, rattle. There's a possum in it... with a mayonnaise jar on it's head. Well this is going to create a mess after I dump the bin out and hit the thing with a shovel. Couple hours later- the jar is empty and the possum is gone.

Unsympathetic Posted September 20, 2021 Report Share Posted September 20, 2021 Although surely they can get annoying, possums are nature's pest controller.. ticks, mice, rats, cockroaches, snails, slugs will all see populations decrease to a possum.. Usually they don't like you either and will be on their way. Your garden will thank you. Similar stuff with bats - if we get into larger property/garden sizes, I'll probably look into mounting a bat hotel or two on a shed. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted September 26, 2021 Report Share Posted September 26, 2021 Have had a family of bats here locally for a few years now. See one or two (usually late summer after the bat kids fly) flitting around out back at dusk or dawn feeding on whatever insects are around. Once saw the mass of them leaving the underside of the Congress St. bridge on Austin's north side. Expected a mass cloud of bats, but what got was as orderly as a well-practiced fire drill, i.e., single file, with all leaving the same general area of the bridge in a seemingly endless string of bats. https://www.austintexas.org/things-to-do/outdoors/bat-watching/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
