This was supposed to be the 3rd straight 10 hour day at work but alas things were quiet enough that I ended up going home at 1 pm, which costs me overtime and bodes ill for hour for the rest of the year.
I was able to get home in time to watch the New England Patriots. As of this moment the Colts are up and while as of this writing the game is up in the air thanks to 4 holding penalties a missed kick and an almost impossible interception there is no question that the Patriots will finish with one of the worst if not THE worst record in the NFL.
Those are the bits of bad news.
The good is that this is the last year of the Biden administration and I suspect next year the economy will be rolling at such a pace that I won’t have a lot of time for Sunday football or anything else once Thanksgiving rolls around.
Furthermore while this will be a bad year for the Patriots there is absolutely no question that Drake Maye is the real thing and once they give him some tools on offense and a better offensive line (and with a high draft pick and no need to get a QB next season it’s very possible they can fill both needs via trade in one season) the Patriots will be producing quality football perhaps all the way to my retirement and beyond.
With the good young talent on the Redsox and a Celtics Championship team that has dynasty written all over it I suspect I might be watching championship level talent year round for the rest of my life.
Not bad indeed.
