Or I actually got to see some football yesterday.
The running gag around here is that if the Giants and the Jets lose in the same week, someone dies in Westros. If one team loses and one wins, unless they are playing each other, then someone gets maimed.
Since the Giants won and the Jets haven’t played yet, then maimed it is so far.
I saw some good football games, some bad, and some that were nail bitters for both sides. I don’t think they could have planned a couple of those endings.
And Prescott was finally intercepted but didn’t let it affect him so he continued to play very well. He broke Brady’s old record of 162 by throwing 177 before Morgan Burnett finally caught one intended for someone else. I think Mr. Burnett kept that game ball.
There are a number of teams that the Quarterbacks are reaching their sell-by date. There are others that are still going strong with the guys they have. It will be interesting to see the moves in the off season.
Football was not my entire day. Caroline and I got out the Halloween decorations including the graveyard, which I didn’t put up last year since the lawn had just been reseeded. A couple of families were out for a walk and they told me how happy they were that the graveyard was back. I am missing a box that had a couple of things that I need to finish the job but I am going to look for those today.
Caroline started on her Halloween costume that I am going to continue working on. More on that probably next Tuesday.
I have been asked how I feel about Once Upon a Time this season since my favorite characters are going through a rough patch that doesn’t make much sense considering their past history. The writers have been setting this up for about two years now or at least a year and a half. Yes, some of their actions seem a little out of place but like a good soap opera there is no story without some tension and drama. I do think that eventually this will get all sorted out but I am afraid it is going to be on the corpse of one or the other and since one of them has already ‘died’ and I don’t have great hope of the other making it through the season. I do like the concept that they have for this season of unfinished stories finding their endings. It does allow for expansion without having to explain where the character came from.
Yes, I am still looking forward to seeing Doctor Strange even though I think I have probably seen about a third of it between all the teasers, trailers, promos and making of. I know the story of the character very well and as a fan of him, I must say that what I have seen so far has made me want to see more. I have now seen a glimpse of the one thing I had some concerns about and it looks great. Now November just has to roll in and I have it in my hand.
But not too soon please. I have a lot to do before Halloween.
I am grateful for Marvel Screenings.
