2007 Edition
| Sept, 5, 2007 When the leaves on the trees start falling, my internal clock causes a release of an endorphin in my somewhat lopsided brain. That endorphin stimulates my visual acuity to see a holding penalty from row 5 of section 554. It allows my hands to move in virtuoso fashion when anchoring my position as the strong side grill master. It allows my brain to concoct the milky blue elixir that is Panther Juice, from memory, and without the use of any measuring devices. And like the sparrows to Capistrano, I’m pulled by a seasonal urge to the tailgating lot. Truly, mind, body, and spirit truly transform to an altered state. Football season is really here. NOT preseason crap and not that stuff my mates from the UK call football. The college games last weekend were great and to see the Colts and Peyton Manning put the Saints back to what they have been known for… Losing, just set my chaotic world back on its axis. Last year was a blip on the radar for the Saints. It is very odd that on the opening weekend of the NFL the BigCat is traveling out of the country. It is part of The Taking Tailgating to the World Tour. To Merry Ole England, home of Henry VIII, the original tailgater. Most folks don’t know it but the origins of the Buffalo style chicken wing trace back to the Big8. Known in those days as Tudor style wings, they were slightly larger and were not dipped into the traditional blue cheese dressing. That came later Not unlike the BigCat, he was a robust sporting man who an affection for strong drink, mass quantities of red meat, making his own rules, and cleavage. In my last trip to the old country we toured the Big8’s Hamilton Court Crib. Nice spot, but as if on a Davinci code like quest, I ducked off the beaten path into what was once the Big mans apothecary. Underneath a dusty stack of Medieval Jousting Illustrateds, I found a small piece of what looked to be 14th century Quilted Loo Role Paper with some writing scribbled on it. The title “Juice of the Panther”. Cleary the writing was from H’s own hand. As I scanned each of the steps to the letter, it matched exactly with the current formula for Panther Juiced. Through the incredible powers of deduction and invoking the dark side of the sigma, the BigCat used the DMAEC method prove what that cerebral embedded formula for Panther Juice is held by little know DNA marker. A marker shared by the Big 8 and the BigCat. This proves that the BigCat is a direct descendant to the Tudor King and potentially the rightful heir to the thrown. It is a secret that will have to reside with the loyal readers of this humble blog. For if the BigCat were King of England, their black and white ball would become brown and oblong. They would use their hands, wear helmets, and trade the yellow card for a yellow flag. NFL Europe would be highly successful. The Manchester United would be the challenge the Carolina Panthers in the World Superbowl I. It would truly be the world united. We might even get the French to play… nah.. that’s really dreaming. But we would most definitely keep the beer drinking. Heres to the start of football season, here’s to the Black and Blue and another victory. And God Save the Queen. |
