7.348. Waiver Wednesday

So, the Giants found their guy…. sort of. I thought it was going to be someone stronger in name or scheme but this late in the game it became abundantly clear that the Giants are not a premier destination. That being said, Shane Bowen is an experienced dude. He is known for disguise odd front schemes. Here is the thing about that: so is Wink. Except Wink’s front is not so much of a 3-4 and he is a blitz happy son of a bitch. I like that about him. I am still hopeful that he winds up in Colorado. All signs are pointing towards Wink landing in Michigan and bringing that ferocity to college football. Man, that would be crazy. It is why I wanted him in Colo. He has the dogs there and he can send em.

Meanwhile on the home front, the boy officially signed his NLI with Drake this morning. He’s a Bulldog. He’ll have away games all across the country, which will be a wonderful experience for him. He’s excited. I’m excited. Now I need to figure out when (and how) to get to Iowa to watch at least one of these games.

Some Thoughts:

  1. Well, missed on the publishing yesterday. I wrote it, but it sat there unpublished. This hasn’t happened in a while and is reflective of how frazzled I was yesterday. I need to spend that other ten minutes I have scheduled for meditation actually meditating.

7.437. Turnback Tuesday

There are days I just don’t want to go back. Days where I feel like the best stuff is ahead of me and yesterday is just a reminder of the suck. Feels very anti-American Military (Only good day was yesterday). In fact, as I move into my own future I am starting to think the only good day is tomorrow. In terms of the words, tomorrow I get to talk about the Giants (blog) and I get to finish another chapter of the novel (so long as I stay on track). These are all good things. Today was less of that. Today was, IMHO a hot mess.

I don’t have too many of these days anymore, but too many of these days in a week means things are in need of a hard reset. Physically I need to get right. Mentally, I need to pace myself and make the time for what matters. These are things I know I know, and I don’t need to turn the clock back today to reflect on how I’ve grown or why I know them, because I know I am not where I need to be and I know exactly what sacrifices need to be made to be better. Now it is time to make them.
