    Unless you grew up in the northern states and were a fan of football you wouldn't understand it. As much as I have grown tired and hateful of winters up here in blue belly land football and cold, wet, muddy and snowy weather go together like bacon and eggs! I played high school football and remember the best and most fun games were the ones when we were sinking in freezing muddy fields with freezing rain pouring down on us. Getting back in the locker room and pulling pounds of mud that was crammed all over our uniform and pads.

    I hate the winter, but I do like to have enough energy to tell it to %$#@ off once in awhile. Playing out in the cold invigorates you and does not sap your energy like the heat can. I love the heat, but is does not make me want to run around and roar like the cold does. Heat makes me want to sit, drink, and then lie down tired.

    Wondering how folks up north are enjoying all that snow right now.

    We broke a record for cold by 1* , and the record went back to 1903

    So please tell me how they got everybody fooled into believing that you can control mother nature .
    And there is a thing called climate change.
    Its all propaganda .

    Its how I drink it. And my OL really, really likes it with Pepsi too,

    I grew up drinking a lot of Sodas and drinking whiskey with it.
    Used to drink Whiskey out of a shot glass and chase it with a Redneck Budweiser.
    Quit doing that.
    Drank Vodka with Orange juice or sprite.
    Drank tequila straight most of the time. and licked a lime and salt.
    Drank Moonshine straight, sipping it.
