Another football upset

The morning news brought not surprising but still startling reports that the head coach of the Jaguars, Jack Del Rio, was let go. As I stated, not an unexpected development, with some thinking it should have happened much earlier in the season. This 2011-12 season is being ‘excused’ as one of rebuilding this ‘young team’ and so on, and now we can look forward to probably more of the same.

Rita and I chatted about this today, she thinking Jacksonville truly missed the boat with not drafting the Florida Gator’s/Jax native quarterback, Tim Tebow, to play for the Jags. That would have certainly ended the blackout fears as he can really draw in this college ball city’s fans. And now, he is tearing up the field in Denver, bringing that team victories. He is declared to be a humble victor. I would settle from some humble victories here in Jacksonville. Hopefully the team is not cutting off its nose to spite its face with this firing. The rumor mill also suggests that the team is being sold but we must wait for the press conference to hear the information about this matter.

Still I have not heard from the Amazon.com people in regard to the return of the merchandise not mine, so I will drop the box off at the UPS store using the labels and information they have already provided. Hopefully they will know what to do with it once it’s sent back. Also must go to Publix for a few things, as our needs will be a bit different having Justin back home. More laundry to be done which means more soap for the machine. And soda, of course!

Justin made me laugh last night, when reviewing the sales flyer on-line from Publix. He reported that squash, zucchini, and green beans were on sale for a dollar a pound (?). Upon seeing my face, he said, “I really like squash and bet I could get you to eat it, if I held you down with my knee!” Somehow, the picture is quite amusing to me---him chasing me around the house with a spoonful of squash. Green beans I do like, have that on my menu list for the funeral, when the time comes, and perhaps they will still be a dollar a pound!

Well, it was just revealed on a local TV station where Suzanne works that the Jaguars were sold! http://www.firstcoastnews.com/topstories/article/228975/483/Report-Jaguars-Have-Been-Sold-to-Shahid-Khan
