    Getting ready to walk out the door to head to the stadium. Same thing I said five years ago....when I get home, I'm either going to be really depressed or extremely jubilant. Later gents.

Is he playing this week?

Questionable. He’s been a LP for 2 or 3 weeks in a row now with the Q designation, but keeps finding himself inactive on game days. I don’t think it’s because they are being extra cautious either, they have had a playoff spot on the line. 

Two players I want to be Eagles this Spring are doing nicely so far Duggan as a UDFA QB and Tre’Vius Hodges-Tomlinson as a day 2 pick

Here's what I see happening if the following takes place. TCU beats Michigan. Ohio State beats Georgia. TCU beats Ohio State. There will be cries for Alabama to be declared national champions because:

1) Everyone KNOWS that Alabama is better than TCU. And if they were playing each other, they would be favored by more than a touchdown.

2) TCU didn't even beat a team from the SEC in the playoffs. And everyone knows the SEC is the best conference in college football.

3) Alabama blew out Kansas State, who beat TCU in their conference championship game. So that proves Alabama is just better.

4) Alabama has a better record over the past month or so than TCU.

Well, I think the Chiefs would have crushed the Rams in the SB and were a much better team last year.  Bills too.

Sometimes you get the easier path.

The Guard

Nobody's Fool (Paul Newman Version)

Jeremiah Johnson

3 Days of the Condor

Rocky (Good every time)

Jeremiah Johnson is a weak story with the mountain man that teaches him likely modeled on Jim Bridger .  The Revenant is closer in attempting to tell of the bear attack on Hugh Glass while a member of a William Ashley and Andrew Henry expedition. One of the men left with Glass was Jim Bridger, a teenager at the time.  Bridger became a pretty famous western explorer and there are a few good books on him.  Pretty well known for opening Yellowstone to others. Like Lewis and Clark, William Ashley kept journals, which are required reading for any historians studying the opening of the American West.  Also with Ashley was Jedediah Smith.  He was a prolific explorer and kept a journal as well.  He was the first mountain man to make it over the mountains and into California and is credited with opening the South Pass.  I recommend the book Jedediah Smith and the Opening of the West by Dale Morgan, who may have been my favorite history professor.  Good summary of Smith’s explorations.  What isn’t studied as much as it should be is the history of the French voyageurs and trappers and the Scot trappers.  But for their expeditions and exploration, the U. S. based trappers and explorers may well have ventured there and the border might have crept northward. Funny in a way that the English benefitted from that. 

Thank you Gatorade for constantly showing Lizzo doing yoga 🙄

There's life for the blue and gold.

Should have never stopped running the QB

😐

Can't call that one not a TD.

I see The Revenant as much more fictional. The recent tragedy of people freezing to death in their cars in Buffalo is a realistic reminder of hypothermia and heat transfer for humans. It doesn’t matter how tough or motivated a person is. The character, as portrayed in The Revenant, would have died of hypothermia many times over. Not disputing the story of Hugh Glass and the bear attack, just the portrayal of the survival. Might as well have been a Marvel character, IMO.
