The biggest day in sports

I did not watch the game on Sunday. Didn't watch the doggies play, the half time show, go to a party, or anything else. HOWEVER... if you did partake, I hope you had a lot of fun! It's a big day for sports and food. Now comes the hard part for a lot of people - going to work or school on Monday! LOL.

Either way - if you plan to go to work or call in ***cough cough "sick" cough cough*** good luck on getting through the day after :)

An Akron favorite, tradition, and icon!

My mom and I had some business to attend to on Thursday afternoon. Once we were done, we wanted dinner. We chose to go to one of our all time favorites...Luigi's!

Their food is delicious! For several years now I have gotten a pizza with pepperoni and sausage. However, when I was younger I would always get the lasagna. I had forgotten how good that is. I tried it again a couple months ago and have been on a Luigi's lasagna kick lately.

Don't forget the bread! Plus I almost always get a salad with cheese - that's a MUST! 

They will always be a staple on my list of places to eat.

73

I'm just going to speak this into the Football-verse...

Tonight at the NFL Honors during Big Game Week!  There will be many awards handed out...

The Pro Football Hall of Fame Class that is heading to Canton in 2023 will be announced tonight also. 

Now there are a ton of deserving names on the lengthy list of nominees.   I think, there is a no-brainer/lock among those names.

Joe Thomas, The Browns Iron-man Lineman has to be atop the list!  

Sure he was #73 but the number 10,363 the amount of consecutive snaps AS A LINEMAN is the number of Legend.

Now Thomas maybe missing the Playoff and Superbowl appearances but let's face it that isn't his fault.  

With the merry-go-round of QB's he protected he allowed just 30 sacks in 6,680 pass-block snaps...  

I don't think I am alone wanting to see Joe Thomas in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.  He will get the nod tonight.  

Good Luck, Joe.  Enjoy the Gold Jacket, see you in Canton!

Trailer Thursday: Air

Today's trailer is brand spanking new: Air. The story follows Nike as they try to court rookie Michael Jordan for a new shoe line. Now I'm not a huge basketball fan (although I'm sure we're ALL proud of Lebron right now!) but I was a fan of Winning Time: The Rise of The Lakers Dynasty. And the trailer does look promising! It has big stars like Matt Dameon and Viola Davis, and Ben Affleak is directing and starring in it. Should be an interesting ride! Check out the trailer below.

A lot of fun promotions

The Guardians released the 2023 promotional schedule for fans on Wednesday! There will be 16 fireworks nights, nine Dollar Dog nights, and other fun for fans. One day, there will be a Triston McKenzie jersey giveaway (among others). You could end up with a bobblehead of Kwan or Clase, or on May 13th you could get a replica Gold Glove Award from 2022 (they play the LA Angels that day).

Of course there will be Larry Doby Day, and in August (vs. Detroit) they will induct at least one new member into the team HOF. Should be a fun summer at Progressive Field!

Early Commercials... or Not?

Unless your team is in 'The Game' Sunday, it's mainly about the food and commercials, right?

I don't know which camp you are in:  The Old School, want to be surprised by the commercials.   

Or the early leaked commercials that seems happens a ton now...  

I like to be surprised by them to some extent.  Hearing who is going to be in commercials is alright...

This one snuck thru my radar this year (but then I found out it was already released.)

The Scream Movie Franchise will release the Trailer for the movie in 'The Game' Sunday.  Here it is...

I'm not much of a scary movie fan.  Scream in the past was Ghostface running around falling over everything. 

This movie is more my cup of tea.. or bowl of mashed potatoes as the case maybe:

Enjoy the commercials and more THE FOOD!!!!

WYNN - OMG - How Often Should You Wash That?

Well, this seems to be a conversation that always sparks lively debate, how often certain things should be washed.  I'm not an expert, but if you get into it with certain people, they are!  I'm no germophobe, but I think we can all for the most part figure out when it's time for certain things to be washed. 

In case you're confused - Read below....

How Often Should You Wash That?

SW small Logo I love career changing songs.  I have always been attracted to them as they alter the direction of an artist, and they always seem to be the ones we really remember, along with their debut song.  Toby had been around for a few years and was having good success.  But when this song and album came out, we met the Toby we would all elevate to Superstar status.  His image had changed and the sound was newer and a bit sharper.  This song would become a gigantic catch phrase with country fans and fans that would have nothing to do with us.  This song works from both the man and woman perspective, depending on who's singing it.  It's not offensive, it's just direct and to the point. There is a tongue-in-cheek element to it as well. This song became an uptempo break up anthem, and it still loved today all these years later. A career changing five week number one song.

Other Articles I've Written Featuring Toby Keith

Other Articles Featuring Toby Keith

For the past few years I've been writing my Country Music Memory Lane Series and my Mega Star Series.  They post here on Thursdays and will continue to do so.

Over the past 42 years I've played Country Music continuously on the radio. I am NOT saying these are the BEST songs, just the ones I enjoy the most.

WYNN - Eat Of The Week!

SW small Logo Let's say this up front, there is nothing wrong with Egg Plant Parm!  I am more drawn to the Veal Parm as a rule, but when an Egg Plant recipe comes up like this one, I'm goin' in!  Let's face it, when you "parm" about anything it's bound to be great, so let's dive in here. Even if you are a "veal leaning parmer"  like me.

This Looks Amazing - Delish
