ASU Football, thank Allah, et al. for back sugery, my brush eith fame.

Well today at 4:00 PM we play Montana St. I was specially selected to work
today's game, cause no one else could or would work it. I'll be finishing
up an Analysis Project for my research methods class, while watchin' ASU run
all over Montana St., I hope!

On or about the 8th or 9th of Dec. we will play either Illinois St. or
Youngstown St., with the blessings of Allah(PBUH), Jesus H. Christ (PBUH),
Buddha (PBUH), Vishnu (PBUH), Zeus (PBUH), Athena (PBUH), Foghorn Leghorn
(PBUH).

I have lost 99% of the grip in both hands and am having great difficulty
typing this post, but I will be in the capable hands of Dr. Maxy on Dec.
8th, at which time I hope to regain my hands.

OBROFF--I bumped into coach Moore, ASU's venerable leader, the other day at
the Physical Plant Warehouse. He was scouting large chalk boards and as
ASU's (OLD & TBC) Outside Lighting Director and The ******* Child, I was
procuring some high-pressure sodium lamps. Having a few minutes on our
hands, which is all that my hands can handle, presently, we discussed
sportz. I congratulated the coach on last seasons National Championship and
this seasons victories and SoCon Championship. Fly fishing came up, don't
remember how but I'm certain that I didn't mention it :~^ ) As it turns
out, coach Moore is a very pleasant and friendly sort of fella. He said
that he had been fly fishing out on Montana, but hadn't had an opportunity
to do any locally. I, humbly, offered to guide him--for some championship
tickets--and he reluctantly accepted. He asked for my ph.# and said he'd
become a real nuisance, come Spring. I sure hope he's as honest as he is
personable. I really need the connection, having told our new Physical
Plant Director, my BIG BOSS, and recently retired Navy Capt., to "Blow me!
You filthy pig-mouthed *******!" Which he took very well, I might add, but
everyone else in the room seemed to have vapor-locked?

But I digress.

in view of the presence of my pride and joy, baby boy, anthony, at app
st as a freshman, i have supported the mountaineers with a vigor second only
to that expended on my beloved, but currently wretched, tar heels.
if you happen to see a fairly tall kid with black moptop hair and
matching beard wandering around the stadium in search of a clue and an easy
lady, tell him his daddy said "good hunting"...

wow, mark, i am really vibing for your recovery. keep us apprised of
your progress.

There seemed to be many young "hunters" at the game. Where we park our
state vehicles, there's a group of regular drunken alumni. We hang with
them and get a kick out of their antics. One of 'em is the fella I
mentioned after the furman game who walked out of the stadium in his red
skivvies, having lost a bet on the points spread.

We kicked the **** out of Montana and the refs. Montana could do no wrong
and we must have received at least 5 unsportzman like conduct penalties?
Final score 38-17. http://www.goasu.com/

I hope to be able to fend for myself, not too long after surgerey. But
failing that, my 73 y.o. mommie will tend to me. Thank Allah et al. for
mommie!

Actually, no. You may have put a wooping on Montana State- but you
won't see Montana for a couple of weeks. Montana has to take care of
buisness with UMass before they can play with ASU.

If that should come to pass, We are planning to be in Chatty on the
15th as we are going to be in Louisville for my daughter commissioning
in the Army Reserve.

You are correct sir! I neglected to add the "St." to Montana. We battle
Youngstown St. this Sat. at 4:00 PM and I sure hope Catawba Valley Medical
Center has ESPN, or I may have to have an ambulance transfer me to the
nearest hospital with cable and ESPN!

If you are a Montana fan I wish you well against UMass. I can only hope ASU
has what it take to get to Chattanooga.

Congrats on your daughters Commision.

Well wishes and speedy recovery on your surgery!

I personally am a Montana State fan, but live in Missoula, It's pretty
much impossible not to follow the Griz living here. some with sterner
constitution than myself have managed. Actually, one daughter has a UM
degree (my reservist) and one has an MSU degree (my nurse). and the
Griz are the home town team- even if not my alma mater. My wife and I
have season tickets to the Griz games.

was really hoping for an all Montana championship game- don't know how
i'd have cheered that one.

best wishes, John.

So...what was Plan B? ;-)

That was a pretty good game to watch, with the score close to the end.
But the UMass defense was the dominant factor, and a good defense will wreak
havoc on a good offense. I'll have to check the stats but I suspect UMass's
offense doubled Montana's net yards.

Where is the final game being played?

Chattynuga!

ASU plays Youngstown St. today at 4:00 PM, and it's being broadcast on ESPN.

I just got in from yesterday's surgery about 30 minutes ago. Had surgery at
11:00 AM and was released at 11:00 AM today. I'm at my home, didn't have to
stay at mother's or my aunt's place, but I can't drive for a week and have
to wear the neck brace for a week too :~^ (

Upside, 90 percocets! and no real pain to speak of. I already have regained
the strength in my hands, arms and shoulders!! It's amazing what a little
bit of back surgery can do for a fella. I'll likely go back to work after
next week, but I won't do anything...nothing....NADA...zilch!!! It's so
nice to feel whole again--physically that is. The doc said there is no hope
for me mentally or emotionally :~^ (

Best of luck to you and the team........Get yourself some software
and a mic so all ya have ta do is speak and the words magically apear
on the screen.........Seriously get them hands back so when you
accidently brush against a womens bosom you will be able to feel and
hold on if she likes it if not at least you will be able to defend
youself................
