Gramz

It was actually a bit humorous now that I think of it...   Here we are at a Bengals/Broncos game, and I bring my Peyton Manning COLTS quilt.     The Security Guard looked up at me and said, "That's cool, but Peyton is the only one here that will care about it".  My response was  "Peyton is the only one that matters"     Got a laugh out of the Security Dude.

When I met PM I was dumbfounded, star struck with my jaws down to my knees!  My friend had to do all the talking, he had to ask if PM if we could take a picture, also told me to stand next to him and even had to say thank you for me.  I guess I really looked dumb!

cool that you got a picture @100GFB

The thing I always try to remember is that anger is a secondary emotion.  Once that clears, you can figure out how to deal with things.  Endless anger is not productive

I have been out of the loop on most news for the last week and a half while I’m Hawaii, it’s actually very nice. 

So glad you two are having a good time.  And being removed from the "news" is a bonus.   Looking forward to connecting with the two of you again and hearing all about your trip.

For old Uncle Mark you should sing Sweet Caroline DADADA . I love Stevie Nicks by the way, great choice.

Stevie is the best. Nobody sings like she does. Her songs are very emphatic & empowering. Excellent inspirational choice Gramz. 

I wish I could

Very slow in the summer for me so have been spending most of my team on Yankees and Rangers forums but checking in here every now and then, hence my thread to talk about memorabilia.

Good to see you again. Your daily presence was missed. Hope you're well. I have the day off tomorrow.

I am battling football withdrawal. Looking forward to training camp and the start of the season. 

@NFLfan  thanks.   We've been really busy with our music, and after this weekend we'll have 7 weeks off...     As much as I love singing,  I love our downtime equally.      I'm looking forward to the season starting, and we've already got tickets to 2 games.   Poor planning on one of those, because we have a singing job on the evening before, but I am not missing the game where they retire Peyton's jersey...       That will be a busy weekend for us.    How are you...???

omgoodness.    God Bless you.  I am glad you are okay.

Take care cc1!

Whoa there CC1. Sorry to hear about your recent stroke & corresponding recovery time in the hospital my friend. I miss you around here dude. Just get better though & I'm glad to hear that you are still around & going strong buddy. 

Good advice. Being warm & fuzzy takes a special skill. Only kidding! I do try to be reasonable & approachable as often as possible. Some days are better than others. The struggle to be decent & kind marches on right? 

Now you be you and I'll be me.  That's the way it was meant to be!

Stone cold ....revenge is a dish best served cold...

Easier said then done, but yeah, you're right Gramz, anger & frustration only hurts the person who can't let stuff go. 

So, does this mean if somebody really irritates me unload at home in private then? Just joking! 

Get well Gramz, that stinks. Herbal Lemon Tea.

Hope your on the mend Gramz. The sacrifice's artists make for their craft takes a heavy toll indeed. 

SW1...  I had a horrible cold, luckily I'm on the mend, and just in time.  We have two gigs this weekend.  ;)

Same with me, Gramz. I will probably watch it but I am not excited about it as I usually am. I DEFINITELY  do not want to see Brady hoisting up yet another SB trophy. 

Go Falcons!

"At least Peyton beat him [Brady] before he retired." --2006CBE

Well technically, Von Miller did the bulk of the heavy lifting in that AFC Championship Game, buddy. But, you're right, Manning make the throws he had to in order to end his career on top so yeah...I'll co-sign that statement as well. 

Husband got the day off and wants to watch SO.......I'm making french dip sandwiches

I hope Clemson wins. Look at Peyton up there.

Bama will probably win but I want Clemson. Hey Peyton is at the game. He got honored into the College Hall of Fame.

Hoping for clemson

Gramz The Rock Star Diva. Oh yeah. I know; I know. You & your husband usually perform Country Music material. 

Cool photo though. Your band looks like they are having a blast & that's all that matters. 

PS I'm sure you guys sound great live BTW. I admire folks who routinely perform on stage because that takes guts & it keeps you in touch with your inner child as well. 

Hey Gramz, 

I watch AXS TV Channel 340 on Direct TV all the time given my soft spot for musicians & over Christmas on my DVR I recorded a Jennifer Nettles [lead singer from 'Sugarland' fame] do a very moving rendition of "Little Drummer Boy." It blew me away. See...

She also did a memorable version of "Go Tell It Around The Mountain" too. 

From 1 musician to another, SW1 figured you'd appreciate how good this cover is. 

Yes, Jennifer has an incredible voice.  I love listening to her.

Happy New Year Gramz.

Happy New Year!

Bogie,  they are a very well rounded team, with a great coach.   I know alot of people don't like them, but I say credit where credit is due.   They've had  a great season and  deserve to win the championship.  They are a great team.

I think Ohio St has the only chance because they have the Defense that can keep it close + Ohio St seems to get as lucky as Bama does on getting the huge key breaks in games. The REFS love Ohio St (they are the 1 team) as much as they do Bama so that evens out. Ohio St may find a way to win by 1 point because of a call or a lucky Turnover.

There is only one really good offense in the SEC who they have to play every year, and that's Ole Miss. Bama hasn't really been tested all year outside of that. Ohio State or Clemson can bring them down. 

Alabama's offense can be very shaky up against a decent defense, as we seen against LSU and other games where they just barely could score. Rookie freshman QB too who struggles from time to time. 

I'd give anything to see someone take them down. I quit watching their games a few years ago cause they're just boring blow outs. I would watch a close game or a loss though...

Michigan's QB fumbling at the goaline and throwing a pick 6 didn't help either. He isn't that good is he? I still think Jim's team got ripped off but they shot themselves in the foot with key Turnovers. It was a Great game I agree Gramz.

Michigan's QB was reported to have a broken collarbone two weeks ago...  I'm guessing it wasn't a broken collarbone, or he wouldn't have been playing, but he definitely has something wrong with his non-throwing shoulder.   Part of the reason he was "off" yesterday.  He really is a good QB.

I didn't know that, thanks I guess that is why he played bad.

Next time...!!!!

For sure!

Great stuff!

We'll head that way shortly.

In Conrad Lobby but I covered up my colts stuff so I don't get kicked out for being a fan, if I'm asked I'm gonna say we're waiting for people to have brunch at capital grille haha. Hanging here for an hour then gonna go drop her purse off at Sheraton and go to stadium. we'll see you soon

Got a pic w Dallas!!!
