Just to catch you up....our daughter from Roswell, N.M., moved back home this past summer...you know the story; divorce; move home for a short while; yada yada!!

She brought her three dogs with her. Two small, well behaved dogs and Waldo, the German Wiener Dog, AKA "Bismarck." He is a sweet dog and he and our Yorkie (Murphi) our best buddies.

Well, being raised in "no-snow" country this winter has been a surprise for them. Especially Waldo, who is about 7 pounds over the weight limit for heavy cruisers, and whose legs barely reach the ground. This last snow storm really almost did Waldo in. 37 inches of snow is not what he is used to.....hell, 6 inches of snow is more than he can handle. Murphi has learned the more snow the better skidding on it, and has her "Murphi Sled Runs" all over the back yard.

So...last week we had some warmer weather and the top layer of snow melted a little, then froze over night. This continued for a few days until there was a nice crust of ice on top of about 2 1/2 feet of snow. Murphi, being a svelt 9.5 pounds, merely sprinted across the top of the snow, while poor Waldo would try it...get two steps and bam...back end would break through and he's stuck. After several "ass-end sinkings" Waldo got smart and used his weight to just plow through the snow and ice crust like a Great Lake Ice Breaker. Kind of funny. Murphi sprinting across the top of a few feet of snow and then this wake of snow with a black head just above snow line following her.

Then yesterday morning the dogs were out and I hear Murphi yipping and standing over this hole in the snow about halfway up our backyard. I start up there, in slippers and Packer PJ's, and suddenly this black head pokes up over the top of the snow hole and it's Waldo. I swear he was grinning and thinking...."Ha! I knew I could get you out in this shit with just your slippers on!"

I'm gonna kill those dogs............once the snow melts and I can get to them.

Zero2Cool (11h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.
Zero2Cool (11h) : HUMP DAY
beast (11h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast
beast (11h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?
Zero2Cool (11h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.
Zero2Cool (12h) : I could be wrong there though
Zero2Cool (12h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (14h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it
beast (14h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
beast (14h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty
Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol
beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
