That’s much more important than a Lion’s Super Bowl victory…FREEDOM!I hope by Jan 1 I am retired
Best part of retirement.... Not having that feeling of dread Sunday afternoon, knowing the weekend is coming to an end and it's back to the grind. In fact, Sunday night is my favorite now.
Actually, 37 years is how long I've been working in the Ag industry, with a good paying job. You could actually tack another 11 years onto that since I worked on my dad's grain and livestock farm since I was 12. As kids, we were expected to work after school and dealing with livestock all weekend. Again, that's not unusual in the 70's if you were a farm kid.Ugh, yeah. I'm still doing the grind, and yes.....9 out of 10 Sundays, I have that dread. Sure, I like my job enough, but after 37 years of grinding...I'm sort of over it. (working in general)
I realize some, if not many, work more years than I have, but anyway.

It sucks.And, in other news, what do people think of the new rule whereby a fair catch in the field of play is taken out at the 25 yard line?
Didn't know that. I assume a new rule like that would be only intended to speed the game as it certainly has nothing to do with player safety.And, in other news, what do people think of the new rule whereby a fair catch in the field of play is taken out at the 25 yard line?

Actually,whether valid or not, the intent is for player safety. Kickoff returns are very dangerous as both players are sprinting towards each other at top speed.Didn't know that.

I guess I feel it dimishes the skill of the kicker. Placing it deep with a then fair catch say on the two yard line can be critical to the defense.
Now that I think and write, I don't like the rule, it takes away skill and strategy for a team, while is a zero for player safety.
Yes, I agree, but a fair catch makes the point of player safety a moot point.Actually,whether valid or not, the intent is for player safety. Kickoff returns are very dangerous as both players are sprinting towards each other at top speed.
Wow, I hadn't heard that either. Can you do that on both punts & KOs?And, in other news, what do people think of the new rule whereby a fair catch in the field of play is taken out at the 25 yard line?
