Ha ha -- I raise my glass to the Bard of Leo-land. (And, go Lions go!)

It seems a sort of 'pigskin poetry' has been created, thanks to you fellows -- i.e. Blitz and David!
"Ride and decide
huck and chuck
read and speed
scheme and dream."
Love it! Made my day! Dream (and scheme) on!

Just thought I'd chime in, giving credit where credit is due, for Craig 'Death' Roh -- if my aging eyes weren't deceiving me it was our #93 who, in the act of tackling opposing QB Harris as he attempted to follow through on that last pass, hurried Harris and turned Harris's body just enough so that ...
