This doesn’t compete with Erin’s _hysterical_ video, and at most might earn a smile, but it was homemade, posted years ago.  It shows a wonderful old dog (who I still miss) tolerating the frenetic antics of a crazy young kitten.  Bella’s wagging tail became a cat toy!

They were buddies, and ever since Vita has been “part dog” (follows us around, loves to have her belly rubbed, greets us at the door when we come home, etc).  Apologies for the sideways orientation of it.  My YouTube skills were very rudimentary then, and have shown no real improvement since!

Thank you!  That was Asturias Leyenda arranged for beginning to intermediate students by my guitar teacher (who is brilliant).  It seemed fitting, but it's cool that you thought so too.

I figure this game will be something like 51-49. That gives somebody 7 TDS and somebody else 6 tds and change. So I’ve got 13 TDS total. Kick in 4 punts and two TOs. 13 TDS out of 19 possessions. 

13 of 19. 

Ps I’m rooting for WVa.

That OU-WVU scoreboard was out of control, advancing ever upward like a NYC taxi fare meter, times two!!

Even more suprising is the fact that A&M and LSU, two SEC teams, now holds the record for the most points scored in a CFB game.  

Can you imagine scoring 72 and losing?

This week's question -

In the Big 12 Championship game, (1) who will be the leading receiver, (2) how many receiving yards will they have, and (3) how many receiving TDs will they score?

I'm looking for three pieces of data that will be scored in 1 to 3 sequence.  If you get 2 and 3 right but miss #1, it won't matter because #1 will have eliminated you.  

Winning answers might look like this:

Lil'Jordan Humphries, 140, 2

Not only MIGHT the answer look like that, I find it highly likely the winning answer will look like that. :)

Can you imagine how the college OT solution completely screws up stats and data?  Nobody scored 72 or 74 points in that game.

After all the soccer shoot-out nonsense, the scored should have been recorded as 32-31, to preserve the reality of the contest.

I hate college OT.
