VY Resurrected

Sunday's NFL games were pretty blah but the most riveting finish was watching Vince Young leading the Titans on a 99 yard game winning drive over the Cardinals. Here is a video recap of the clutch drive.



I ran into Young at a casino in New Orleans last April while there for my buddies bachelor party over Jazz Fest Musical festival. I was wearing Iowa Hawkeye beads that I just purchased on Bourbon Street and I yelled "Sup VY." Young instantly noticed my Hawkeyes paraphernalia and told me that his boy is former Iowa QB Drew Tate. They both hail from Texas.


I asked if I could get my picture with him and VY was ready to pose when one of his entourage boys said no. I had totally forgotten that I was in the middle of a Casino lobby and no photograph evidence was probably a wise move.

VY was very engaging to some random drunk white guy like myself when he really did not not need to be at all. I came away with a positive experience in our brief encounter and I hate the Texas Longhorns too.

It seems silly but as a believer in karma, I feel VY is getting his just due now.

"The Thing is, We Need God in Our Government"

There are few things in life that can make me go dead silent and this video is one of them. I thought watching the movie, "Jesus Camp," was disturbing enough but then the Notorious DEK sends me 4 minutes of pure ignorance.

I was always dumbfounded how the main Jack Daniels' distillery could be located in Lynchburg, Tennessee, a town in a dry county. The answer to my inquiry now seems clear as JC's complexion.
