Pain

Sports

I was putting hoses away this morning when I tripped and fell on a rock.  I probably bruised…no, fractured…no, wait, broke…yes, that’s it, I broke a rib.  The bone fragment is probably sticking out of my back where I can’t see it.  Consequently, I was forced to sit in a La-Z-Boy chair all day watching football…for medical reasons.  You understand.

I see where the mighty Lions had their most lopsided regular-season win in franchise history.  They beat the KC Chiefs 48-3. The last time the Lions won the NFL championship game was 1957.  I was 6.  They have never played in a Super Bowl.  This is the Lions’ year.  Go Lions!

It appears that my local sporting franchise also performed in a tournament  today.  The Washington Redskins beat the Arizona Cardinals by one point.  They went ahead with a minute and a half left to play, causing me to stop yelling at my TV.  The Redskins outplayed the Cardinals in all aspects of the game, and should have had a game similar to that of the Lions, and probably would have if they had a quarterback who didn’t throw 2 interceptions and have countless tipped passes.  Just sayin’…
