James Harden Keeps Ballooning, Paige Spiranac Works On The Short Game & Staffords Hit The Slopes
Ever have one of those nights after three stressful days of watching football where you just get some sleep?
I woke up all refreshed this morning to see how excited Michigan basketball fans were after their team destroyed Wisconsin, and all I could think of was how great that night of sleep was after a three-day football bender. I needed those six and a half hours of just decompression from all the stress associated with watching high-level football with seasons on the line.
I know, it's a dream job for many of you. You know what the great Instagram philosophers of our time like to say: "Create the life you want to live." It's hard to believe I crossed the 13-year mark on the Internet back in the fall, and we're headed for my 10-year anniversary of the Internet being my full-time job.
Guys, I'll never take for granted the busy tripleheader NFL weekends where I have to strategize what beers pair best for each game. I'll never complain about the long nights watching national championships. There will never be a peep out of me about getting up early to hammer out Screencaps for all of you who have to get out of bed, shower, put on work clothes, comb your hair and drive to a job. I know my audience, unlike that loser Dan Woken and blue checkmarks like him (lolololol....they don't have audiences!). Not me. I know you guys want an escape from the job you hate. The marriage you wished was over. The travel ball coach who's not playing your son enough. The boss who's been riding your ass for months about your performance.
I get you guys. I was one of you guys back in the day, minus the marriage and travel ball thing. That said, nothing was getting between me and that pillow last night, especially not some worthless Michigan basketball game.
• Boy, Andre Johnson seems to have some salty feelings towards the Texans organization. Say hello to your new bottom five franchise in football. Deshaun Watson will figure a way out of there. It's all good, as long as he doesn't end up in Pittsburgh.
• The latest forecast in Buffalo for Saturday's game is 31 degrees with snow showers developing after midnight.
• Sony is the latest to get in on the electric car boom. Volkswagen announced this week its 2020 electric numbers were way up compared to 2019, and Tesla delivered 180,570 vehicles in the fourth quarter alone. I keep trying to tell my wife our kids may never purchase a gas-powered car in their lifetimes. Wild.
• Speaking of getting good sleep, have you guys seen the news that mattresses with artificial intelligence are coming soon? That's exactly what I need after those NFL tripleheader Wild Card weekends.
