Fugettabout takin' our coach

Greg Schiano (Rutgers Head Coach and former PSU assistant) would be my first choice to replace the boss of the Nittany Lion crime family (I say crime because PSU's offense should be illegal). However, Tony Soprano may have something to say about us taking "one of his key guys."

John Deere in the headlights

Alexandra shows some apprehension as she and Uncle Joe go for a ride at his farm in Claysburg, PA. We were in PA for the ND/PSU game a few weeks back and had a chance to check out the farm. The look of fear on Alexandra's face is nothing compared to how I felt when Joe took us to a pasture to move some cattle. We were riding in a "mule" (of the non-burro, gas-fueled sort) when a huge Angus bull decided I smelled good. Thankfully, Tiffany was there to protect me further confirming my reputation for being a "metro."

Menace II Society

If I never see another Love Bug again it will be too soon (I'm not sure if that's exactly how the phrase goes so feel free to correct me). These strange insects are flying around Gainesville like locusts in the Old Testament. I literally have to keep my foot on the gas to maintain the speed limit as millions of these freaks hitting the windshield slow our vehicle down. Evidently there's a debate over whether or not these are actually God's creation or a University of Florida experiment gone wrong. Anyone want to give their two cents?

Plastic Man (that's actually my left arm wrapped around Tiffany)

We were in D.C. a few weekends ago for some Dick Armey alumni events. This picture was taken at Gordon Biersh in D.C. I had never eaten there and was really impressed (excellent choice Emily). It was good for us to get away for a bit and relive the days when we actually had jobs.

Penn State's offensive effort

Alexandra reacts to Penn State's 9 point showing against the worst Michigan team I can ever remember watching. Nine L's in a row to the Maize and Blue......thankfully we don't play Appalachian State this year.

Gator Nation

Pregame festivities at The Swamp tend to be crazy, but this Gator family seems to fit right in. I'm told the boy inherited his teeth from his crazy Uncle Chicklet.

Good Answer

I know we have people with various political and religious worldviews looking at this blog, but I thought this was really good. Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee may not get elected, but he has answered questions with honesty and clarity throughout the debates.

The beginning of the debacle

Charles Woodson and company had their way with Penn State (@PSU) on this horrible night back in 1997. Both teams were undefeated at the time, but this loss (34-8) propelled PSU into a tailspin from which they have (it appears) finally recovered. Michigan went on to share the national title with Nebraska and PSU lost the next three and went on to have 4 losing seasons over the next 5 years. Hopefully this Saturday will be the beginning of a new streak.

I'm the moron (or is it moran)

According to my last post my daughter was dressed as this......a ferry. It turns out the other kind is spelled f-a-i-r-y. I'm not going to edit the previous post to ensure everyone that I really am a moran (just kidding....about the spelling only).

Stinkerbell

A high-heel wearing ferry who puts babies in headlocks while carrying a purse and magic wand.

Appalachian State University

If I were a Michigan fan I don't know what I would be more ashamed of....losing to a 1-AA team or losing to a school with this promotional video...
