Tom Brady and The Buccaneers won Sunday's game. Yes, I follow them. Although we have not watched NFL Football, since the "knee taken to National Anthem," became rampant.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But I am watching them, now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And I know, I do not have to explain why. It's my choice. But, I want to... Explain why... This is my choice.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are a football family.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My husband played in HS. Our sons played in HS. I was a "Football Mom..." We went to every game, home and away. By myself, when my husband was working. And I always provided the Team, with a big bag of orange quarters. So they had something, for half time, to get their stamina back.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We love Football...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My husband always felt it was a good thing, for young boys, when their hormones were starting to rage... It was good for them, to get a lot of pent up energy out, by (controlled) banging on each other. -grin-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm sure many
do not understand,
or agree.
And that is their choice. -smile-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That's background.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sooooo, why Tom and the Buccaneers now? Because of his complete dedication to his life style. Which he sells of course!!! His lifestyle sells "TB12." But he is proving it is working, at least for him
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have no interest in becoming the *best physical specimen* I can be, at this age!!!!! LOL That ship has sailed, a long time ago!!!!!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But I would love to eat a logical *diet.* And Tom's is a lot like Michael Pollan's "Eat food, not too much, mostly plants". Logical... (As long as you don't just concentrate on the Avacado Ice Cream. LOL)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mostly, I love his dedication. If he could package that, I'd buy it, at (just about) any cost!!!!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Watching him play.... Watching his eyes.... Complete and total concentration and dedication.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Any time I can watch that... I want to. It is so very scarce today.

The illustrations are just beautiful! I love football. I raised 4 sons and they were in every sport and still do a lot of hiking and biking. Being healthy is a good goal for us at any age...but it sure gets harder the older we get! Enjoy your day! (how 'bout them Cowboys!!! heeheehee)
No need to explain, football seems to be the national pasttime. Your Forest Girl is lovely, and what cute ghost background!!
I LOVE BASEBALL!! :-) But I am all about TB12!! He is a true leader.
I think it's good to focus on whatever inspires us. Too much bad stuff out there. Push it away and watch what you like.
You had me nodding all along, 'til I read avocado ice cream....about that time, a bit of heaves occurred!? (Kidding)
Lovely illustrations. No football fans here. : )
These autumn illustrations are beautiful. X
The autumn images are really nice! The long, dark-haired Forest Girl is lovely.
TB is a true inspiration on so many levels.
Tom Brady is a nice looking man. But long ago I said no to football and yes to black lace. xoxo
Love football!!
Don't know why you thought you needed to explain your choice..It's your choice just as it was your choice to stop watching it..I don't think the NFL cares one way or the other..
Enjoy your week.
