I'm still waiting for England to win it for a second time, Max. Mexico will have to wait in line [emoji6]

For the second time? They didn't really win it the first time. They cheated! It was in 1966, I was 7 years old, and I am still angry about it. [emoji49]

Cycling the straw hats out within easy reach... I think the latest I've ever done it.

When I was a kid no one played soccer. It was all little league and Pop Warner. By the next generation, soccer is now the biggest kids’ sport by far where I live. In another generation we might be competitive on the world stage.

American football is another story. Many high schools have dropped it as injuries and the associated civil liabilities have climbed. Courts are starting to rule that the children are not eligible to waive their rights and that a parent/guardian waiver does not hold up when the child comes of age. Schools are seeing lawsuits for knee, ankle, back, shoulder, and brain injuries, and some huge payouts have gotten administrators’ attention. There is starting to be a conversation of what could take its place if it stops being a high school sport. Some say that will never happen, but if it gets expensive enough how could it not? I don’t have a crystal ball, but I look back 50+ years and see all the changes that we then said would never happen that we now accept and I’m not willing to make any predictions.

I have a hard time deciding who to root for when the US plays Mexico.
One time I was in Estadio Azteca for a Mexico vs USA world cup elimination game, and sang both national anthems with equal fervor. People in the stands were giving me curious looks, especially since no one else was singing it.
I end up rooting for whichever team is loosing.

Cool! And by cool, I mean the hat :)
Stetson in the morning.

A favorite beater that I like all out of proportion to its quality.

My plan is to spend the day at, or above, 7,000 feet and avoid the heat. Tioga Pass is just under 10,000 feet and opened a couple days ago for the first time this season after being closed all winter due to snow (an annual occurrence).


Tioga Pass:

The rare AFC NFC game that pits Broncos and Bears is like that for me.
I still have no time for futbol.
