Men and Football
It's awfully late and since a lot is going down tomorrow, I'll try to chronicle these events in brief. Men and football is something that at times I feel I could write 50 pages about, and at other times feel entirely speechless. Men and football just are, and it's beautiful if you get it. And part of the fun is gambling on the games, the players, the weather, whatever; a morally indefensible act....*yawn*.....and guys just love it. Also well documented in male culture are the acts of domination, typically done at pointless times over meaningless events. Dominance is usually in the form beatdowns, submission, or humiliation.
Harish and I know this last one well. We do football, we gamble, we banter. We hunt, gather, do whatever is necessary to be free on Sundays to watch the fates of our ill-conceived bets. And at times we disagree, leading to male clashing and that dominance thing. If you don't like football, or don't care, I'm not sure why you've read this gibberish this far. Thanks for coming by. You are dismissed. If you're like Ryan, Neil, Marty, Justin, Jimmy and all other football- and shame-loving guys, you'll appreciate this.
I made the off-handed comment that I'm calling a crazy Joe Gibbs play this week. Either a flea flicker or a double reverse (probably to james thrash). This in all likelihood isn't going down. But since it won't, I agreed to let Harish get equal odds that the skins won't run the HB option. This should be fun.
The rewards?
I have agreed to wear a New York Giants shirt if he wins, at my expense. He has agreed to wear a Washington Redskins shirt if I win.
The chances are slim, but this game is getting better and better as it draws near!
Jeremy if 'skins run HB option
Harish if 'skins run flea flicker or double reverse
The winner tells the loser when he will be wearing this apparel.
You can be damn sure the winner will be present for its grand showing.
And the best part is that to strangers we both look like the types that would wear this unknowingly!
Good times.
GO SKINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(go double reverse!)

The HB Option play was *GREAT* in Madden '93. about the last time Golden Joe was coaching this late in the year, no?
