Happy Tuesday I am backward because I am so late here. But a favorite football legend, Len Dawson passed away at the age of 87. He was one of a kind in an era where real men played the sport because of their love for the game. Not for politics, not for money but for passion, grit and determination to win. Rest in Peace Len Dawson, you made my youthful years better with football.
This one struck me as someone recently told me their upper management said there should be no human error. Someone from Mars perhaps?
Both John Wooden and Lou Holtz were college football coaches. Their wisdom makes me smile.
James Plunkett was an Irish writer (1920-2003) not to be confused with the former Oakland Raider QB Jim Plunkett. His advice is solid.
My all time favorite QB Joe Montana, who I was fortunate enough to watch play in his college days. His former team, the SF 49ers, a favorite, not so much.
Truthfully, there was a time we lived to watch football and than the politics and personal views started to muddy those waters. The expression, "leave well enough alone" is still a truth. Oh Maxine.....
Sandee a double delight in Maxine for you today! I know you are not a football fan but you have to love Maxine's humor on most anything!
Had to swipe this photo of Noelle with her first born grand girl Jaslin born August 22. That girl had some strong lungs as an infant, she loved to howl at us! She grew up to quite a lovely young lady. She shares her birthday with my lifelong friend Lynette. Happy Birthday to both of these amazing ladies.

Love all the funnies and that beach in Hawaii is most inviting.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous day and week, Anne. Love and hugs. ♥
We heard Lou Holtz speak years ago. Happy Birthday to two amazing ladies. This quote is so true "The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living." Marcus Tuillus Cicero. I have witnessed this too many times. Enjoy your evening dear friend.
ReplyDeleteWe were sorry to hear the news about Len Dawson. We do think that Maxine is such a hoot!
ReplyDeleteThese are excellent quotes. The executive who said there should be no human error is a horror, he probably has never admitted to a mistake in his whole life, so he has no way to improve. Sad.
ReplyDeleteLove the funnies, and it's best to stick to small college and high school football, those people are playing for the love of the game.
