Here we are in late January, and the football withdrawals are hitting hard. What do I do with my Saturdays? I live up here in the cold of eastern Washington, so I cannot just go outside and find a project in the yard to work on. That is still a couple months away. Thankfully, I do have my Seahawks to ...

Yes, sharing is caring, and, "Friends are better than ICE CREAM!"

That line comes from a twisted scu-fi shortstop I read about a cloned, purple dinosaur that runs amok in a shopping mall...

Sort of like Indiana did this season.

Thanks Darren for your entertaining article today! Amusing and full of memories and dreams for next season. I always look forward to reading your thoughts.

One of my friends was a walk on D lineman and back then rules prevented him from the training table. So we would go to the local Buffet on South Willamette and eat. He helped educate me on the fine art of layering my plate and multiple trips back to the buffet. Man, could he consume the food! Me being a middleweight wrestler could never keep up with him.

Thanks for the memory!

This 8-month-long football drought really does suck. Can we have an abbreviated spring season or just start the season then and take a break in summer if needed? Long shot I know, but why not, since everyone likes it and there is more $$$ for E$PN and the players...

It's amazing how much guys that age can put down. I remember when I was a student there in the mid-90s , I would load up every term on these coupon booklets that students could pick up at the EMU (the student center) .

They had buy 1 get 1 free coupons for McDonalds and Carl's Jr.. So, pretty much everyday I would scarf down 2 Big Macs OR 2 Western Bacon Cheeseburgers and a large fry, no problem. Just standard eating, didn't slow me down a bit, and never became overweight.

Ah, the benefits of youth.

Man, I could NOT eat that much today if I tried. Thank goodness I learned about healthy eating and nutrition in my mid-late 20s.

Thanks, Darren, for once again Perking Up my day. 😁

Sorry, Brother, but Go Pats!
