I see that 5:00 was a guideline.

Is it the 61, the goose egg or the combo?

Crazier, Lakeland can finally reach .500 with a win or both teams can emerge 1-3 if the Kowboys are victorious.

I went to Atlanta after leaving Tallahassee. Believe me, Atlanta was nowhere on my radar but the job opportunities and income potential particularly in I.T. blew Florida out of the water. Temperature wise, it may be a 10-15 difference compared to parts of N. Florida. I also had a short stint in Chicago while doing a winter co-op with All-State during my senior year back in '98. Worst cold of my life. It's a cold that's no longer cold but it just hurts. NOTHING in the south comes close. It was unseasonably warm by Chicago standards that year and oddly enough, didn't snow. The eve before my flight back to Tally in '99, me and my roommate went to a club (now defunct) called The Convent just outside DT Chicago. I guess the sacrilege of going to a club of sin that use to be a church reared it's head because we left at 3am, the skies opened up and we were snowed in for the next 3 days. It was fun as first as I had never experienced snow except on TV. However, the reality set in that we didn't have any food, couldn't drive as the roads were closed. Thankfully there was a bar that we had to layer up for and walk half a mile just to eat. It was then I knew I was over the snow and understood why everyone flocked to Florida, lol. All this happened around the time that the late Gov. Lawton Chiles passed away before leaving office for those that remember. Florida will always be my home. However, Florida is conquered territory. America, even the world is bigger than Florida. Don't knock it until you try it. Yes, I have plenty of family in Tally along with St. Pete, Lakeland, W. Palm Beach and Miami so I will always be connected to the Sunshine State.

As much as I love and miss Florida, there are better opportunities outside the state whether it's for employment or retirement. There's no shame in that. I left nine years ago and haven't looked back. Good luck in your future endeavors. There's always streaming and this board.

Always! Difference of opinion doesn't mean lack of respect. At the end of the day, we all think and feel how we, think and feel.

Shameless plug, but I hope the Kowboys go to 0-4.

Missed out on week 1 but certainly pleased with week 2 results. I left 1 game on the table rushing to get my picks in and typed the wrong team, lol. Keep up the great work @nolebull813

Dang Central! You gave it your best. Great job!

Miracle... 24 seconds left

Entertained and honored! Great job!

....and on Monday....

There has to be a desire to tap anything!

Effort is not free

Ejection at coin toss. I'm not a coach but his tail would be running today.

Feel better bruh!

Hey @VeniceIndianFan! Where are you man? I'm just making sure you're okay after last night. No one wants to start the season with a loss. I know I don't. However, there's plenty of season left and it's best to take the lumps early and improve from that. I'm speaking for myself too, lol.

Lakeland certainly had some missed opportunities that could've changed the outcome of the game. However, I'm not gonna say that Lakeland beat themselves. They were clearly beaten.

Man, I've witnessed the opposite of what I endured so I'm thankful that we are where we are. Unfortunately, there are some around me that weren't so fortunate. The phrase "Jail will accommodate anyone" immediately comes to mind.

Yes I know about the Wolf with no bite, LOL.
