It’s Friday you know what that means we are going to talk about dog cancer. What a fun thing to lead us into WEEK 0 but I promise this does not end with the long sleep. Our new little buddy had a lump on his ass and they took it off, sent it to the lab, and told us he had the big C. Obviously the Puckflaps household was not to excited about this.
We (I mean me) have been taking him to the vet every Wednesday for a month plus to checked and made sure the wound is healing correctly. Long story short they think they got it all and the wound has healed, we have a follow up in a couple months. So, all good right now, shoutout to the little fella but don’t do this again please. He’s a sweet strong boy.
I cannot remember if we have discussed this but back in the 1960’s there was a gentleman named Robert McNamara, who at the time was the Defense Secretary for the US Armed Forces. He needed to get more troops into Vietnam, but the Armed Forces Qualification Test was so hard he was having trouble getting more able-bodied men to pass it.
So, what did my boy Robert do? Project 10,0000. He lowered the hell out of the standards of a troop and made the Qualification Passing grade lower. Problem is these guys were all like Forrest Gump but dumber and without the luck. So obviously these “dumb troops” died at three times the rate of the normal troops. This like the Vietnam war was a total debacle but we got a cool nickname out of it, “McNamara’s Morons.”
Yesterday did something athletic and it did not go well. We played two on two pickleball and I completely made an ass of myself. I whiffed so many times and my mobility, agility, and grittiness are not where they need to be at this time. Diet and running starts Monday, hot boy fall is coming in hot.
Speaking of the fall the Tennessee Volunteers start playing football next week. Josh Heupel has made me enjoy Tennessee Football again and I thank him for that. Speaking of McNamara’s Morons I don’t think Jeremy Pruitt would have been able to get into the army, what a dumb a hole that guys was and will always be, fucking PE teacher.
I have perused the Tennessee football schedule and to me personally it is hard to find a loss on the schedule. If Nico is what my source say he is and the d and offensive lines are the best we have had in a while there are no losses on this schedule. We will also host a playoff game in Neyland. We will be national champions. If you are not Voled up, fuck you.
Big early season epl game with Arsenal vs villa. The villa loss late in the season was really when the dream of raising that trophy died. Tomorrow at 11:30, it’s personal it’s a revenge game. Arsenal 2-1. Eff the lions. Arsenal will also win the prem this year. Here is what the top 4 is going to be.
- Arsenal
- City
- Villa
- Spurs
I am bored now and my fingies hurt. Let me get back to my corporate job that bring me joy and definitely has not crushed all my dreams. Everyone have a great day and a great weekend, and happy WEEK 0.
