If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

That first half of the Bucs Vikes game was THE WORST 30 minutes of Buccaneers football that I can recall seeing since the Sam Wyche days.
The second half was amazing. Bucs get the W and the 8th comeback victory at QB for Josh Freeman.

Texas Approves Charter School for Deion Sanders

http://www.texastribune.org/texas-educa ... n-sanders/

Former Dallas Cowboys cornerback Deion Sanders' charter school application was among eight approved by the Texas State Board of Education today.

"I'm convinced learning will take place in that classroom," she said.

Sanders' Prime Prep, a reference to his nickname, "Prime Time," was among 14 applicants for 11 available charter spots. It aims to focus on both sports and education and will have two campuses in the Forth Worth area, with between 650 and 1,000 students at each.

Currently an NFL Network analyst, Sanders played professional football for the Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers, Washington Redskins and Baltimore Ravens. He also played major league baseball for the New York Yankees, Atlanta Braves, Cincinnati Reds and the San Francisco Giants.

He also runs a youth athletic league, and he toldThe Dallas Morning News that part of his inspiration to start the charter school three years ago was he watching 1,200 kids try out: "I sat up in the top of the bleachers and said, ‘This would be wonderful if we would educate these kids. We could marry the two. Why can’t we do such a thing?'”

Uplift Fort Worth — which is not affiliated with Uplift Education, a Dallas-Fort Worth charter network with 19 schools — sponsored Sanders' application.

Shortly after his application was approved, Sanders tweeted: "GOD IS GOOD! WE GOT IT WE GOT IT WE GOT IT! IM IN TEARS LORD I THANK U LORD I THANK U! PRIMEU PREP ACADEMY WILL OPEN IN 2012 K-12 FREE FREE"

The Redskins owned every statistic of the game, all the way through the game, except the scoring.
Oh, well. A win's a win, no matter how ugly
I can not stand Larry Michaels. And Sam makes me want to stick forks in my ears. Almost every comment is biased towards the Redskins. I can't even take them with a grain of salt. I need a larger shaker. Sonny has insightful comments; Sam just seems to boarder on the silly.

But, I'm glad we won. Nice to be on top of the NFC East, even if it is only for a week.

He may have "played" for the Redskins but I still don't like him.

I never liked him. he was one of the "scoreless tie, career-ending injuries" players during Cowboys-Redskins games, and then substitute whatever team he was on in just a "god I hope xxxxxxxx takes an a..-kicking and Sanders ends up with his head where his feet should be

Romo suffered a collapsed lung while rallying the Cowboys from a 10 pt defecit to win in OT. I hope this buys him a couple of weeks of STFU.

Probably won't because he plays great when the game isn't "important" (meaning not nationally televised or playoff implications).

I can't believe I'm saying this but I think the Cowboys need Romo to play if they want a shot at beating the Redskins Monday. I will also say this, even if the Cowboys don't win and Romo plays like he did last week, I think that will go a long way in not being called a choke artist in my mind. This being said, if the Cowboys make it to the playoffs, he would still have to not revert back to playing bad.

Headed to the Bucs Falcons game today.
I think the Bucs might get lit up today. Atlanta has too many weapons. :(
Big RB, game changing WR's (watch this Julio Jones), future Hall of Famer at TE.
Good thing is that their defense is almost as bad as ours. :roll:

Hey...at least I have a bottle of Jumbie for the tailgate. :pirate:
