PACKERS ARE STILL NOT VERY GOOD

Well it looked pretty promising for the Green Bay Packers last night in the first half of the game but unfortunately the have to play two halves, the Packers lead 9-7 at the half but ending up losing to the Eagles 31-9. I thought that the Packers might be better than last year but in reality they are still not a very good football team. The MLB playoffs start today and I have decided to root for the Tigers and the Dodgers this year. I like the Tigers because of all there local connections to the Richmond are and the Dodgers because of Grady Little, he really got a bum deal in Boston and he sounds like a good manager when you hear him on the radio and TV and he also use to manage the Richmond Braves. After we ate supper last night we rode around CH for a little while and we went by fellow bloggers house which is under construction in the north end of the city and it looks like they are making pretty good progress on the house. Also while down in the north end we noticed a Les Fryar political sign that looked like it had been run over by something and it was in a fellow bloggers yard, maybe this blogger can tell us the real story about what happened to the sign. MICKEY

You need to play with supreme confidence, or else you'll lose again, and then losing becomes a habit.
