John Madden

Legendary NFL coach and broadcaster dies at 85. R.I.P. Even after he retired from both these jobs, his opinion still counted to many of us. To quote my husband last night as we heard the news, "Oh s**t."

NFL ASSESSMENT

Interesting season, but I'm pretty much blowing off the AFC save for the Kansas City Chiefs. QB Mahomes II is totally earning his keep! Even as a devoted Brady fan, I do like this kid. The NFC is far more interesting due to Dak Prescott, Aaron Rodgers, and my boy, Tom Brady! Matthew Stafford is … Continue reading NFL ASSESSMENT →

Just Say “No”

Senator Joe Manchin-D of West Virginia made "one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind" this week. Thanks Joe!

Can we possibly extend term limits? I don't want this man to leave Tallahassee. … Continue reading The Man I Love… Governor Ron DeSantis →

Here are some pertinent excerpts from her perceptions of "a few things men would … Continue reading Book Review: What Men Want To Say To Women (But Can’t) →
