Football, Really?

I’m told there is a football game today that might interest some of you. I’ll be watching Puppy Bowl IV, of course, but if football is your thing, be sure to visit my esteemed colleagues at Every Morning Quarterback and Squib Kick.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving from Knuckle Curve. Eat turkey, watch football (after you’ve read BCS Frenzy, EMQB, and Squib Kick, of course), pass out on the couch, preferably in that order. Good times…

Greetings from BlogWorld

We have a quick lunch break before afternoon sessions, but I overdid it at the buffet this morning, so I’ll post instead. We’ll have the full recap on Monday, but here’s a little of what’s transpired so far:
