Football, part uno

Think it's cold here? You could have been in Green Bay today. Man, I thought the Seahawks were going to blow out the Pack early in the game, but Brett came roaring back. Not bad for a 92-year-old.

Congrats to Cousin Matt for that unbelievably amazing TD catch against the perfect Pats, the first time under Belichick that New England's been scored upon on an opening drive (not just a touchdown, but any points at all). It was a great catch. Who's lazy now, Del Rio?!?



Man, I love the playoffs being on Saturday and Sunday. But I miss college football already.

How about totals and final comments on the yard sale?

Wow. I thought Brett was going to show us his saggy, old man junk in that pic you posted.

Oh, and I was just making fun of Lonnie calling him "cousin Matt." Does he even know your names??

$253 profit on the sale. Just have two garbage bags of clothes and two small boxes of stuff to give to Goodwill tomorrow. Productive day overall!

Lori said...

Jen, don't be a hater. Do any of your relatives play in the NFL? Didn't think so.

Geaux Jax!

Lori said...

So, Lon and Jen, when you're living on the beach in Jacksonville next year, are you gonna get season tickets?

Jen said...

I'm just saying, my cousin Devin (who resembles his uncle Paul) is the best punt returner in the country.
We're pretty tight.

Lori said...

And your cousin Rick was pretty great in the NBA.

BTW, you're going to be sorry when I don't let you sit by Cousin Matt at the reception when I become Mrs. Tom Brady.

Jen said...

Yeah, cause we are pretty tight (thats what she said) couldn't resist. Will someone once again explain to me how we are kin to MJ? I mean he is almost as good as I used to be.

Sorry Dear that last rude comment was me, not you. (you perv)

Matt's dad Steve's mom Lodema (yep, that's really her name) is Granny Eck's first cousin. That makes him Memaw's second cousin once removed, mine and Lon's THIRD cousin, and Brady and Chance's third cousin once removed.

That's pretty close. I mean, I don't think we could legally get married, not even in Arkansas.

And I figured that was you, Mr. "Have you seen my highlight film?".

i've never met Lonnie, but i picture him outside throwing passes on film like Uncle Rico in Napoleon Dynomite. Am I even close, Lori?

and as for the guy trying on your shoes...was his name Brad? I think I dated him freshman year..I'm still looking for my favorite red heels.

Taylor said...

well i must say that was an awesome catch by my cousin Matt!

and your welcome for posting my thoughts about all those important things! lol...

Lori said...

Um, I've never seen Napoleon Dynamite, so I don't know, but if Uncle Rico is a 33-year-old who still longs for the glory days when he played football, then yeah, that's Lonnie.
