Random Musings...

I understand why Joe Gibbs announced his retirement yesterday. Two months ago, I was afraid he would be let go after calling the double timeout against Buffalo. No doubt this was his best coaching year ever... yes, 3 Super Bowl titles mean a lot, but after what he and his team went through, this was a season that no NFL fan will forget anytime soon. Gibbs' 3-year-old grandson, Taylor, suffers from Leukemia, and feels his time and energy would be better spent with his family. I don't blame him. We all wish we could spend more time with family.

My cold has almost subsided. I know others who still have a fever and unforgiving cough.

It was 68 yesterday in Rochester NY. It'll feel like minus 68 when I go up there next month.

Santa Anita racetrack didn't race this past weekend. The all-weather surface couldn't soak up the rain fast enough.

Buckle up,
