The Season Is Here…..Games Thursday Through Labor Day
The season is a marathon, not a sprint. There will be teams that look bad that are good and teams that should be good that are bad. Remember to not make rash judgements from the first week. I got off to a 0 and 1 start in both leans and picks. Lets jump into…

Week Zero Is Here
There are only 8 games this week but hey, it’s College Football. Everybody gets going next week, but since we are going to watch this week, we may as well find something to play. Strictly for entertainment purposes only of course. Some pretty good information I found for us to consider. The day…

Key Largo……a Bogart kind of day
Day 7 began with our journey north to the last key on our list to visit, Key Largo. Darlene and I left the resort and headed 40 miles north. We stopped at a south Florida chain for breakfast. CAO which stands for Cuban American Original. It is a cafe and bakery combining cousines from…
