Yeah

Let's see...how was the weekend in the world of RHS sports?

1. Hawkeyes spanked
2. Cubs spanked
3. Vikings downed by debilitating Bye Week Flu
4. This guy saw GAME DAY RON in the flesh at a local JV sporting contest

Number 4 saved what may have been an unbearable weekend. I had a sinking feeling the Cubs wouldn't be able to win a game in the desert, but I thought MAYBE they could sack up and win one at home. I hate being a delusional Cubs fan.

I suppose that last sentence was a little repetitive, wasn't it?

So - no more baseball, two flailing inept football teams to follow for the next few months... life is really great on the sports front.

This week's tailgate theme is our third annual chili cook off. I'm thinking that my current supply of habañero peppers isn't quite hot enough for this guy's taste, so I guess I'll have to figure out another way to spice things up...

On a side note - I broke out a tilde! What a Monday.

Special Sauce Indeed

I had an underwhelming experience with a "legendary" local restaurant the first time I went, but kept hearing from people, "No! You just caught them on a bad night! Try it again!"

So I did try it again, and it was better. I went back yet again and enjoyed myself. The memories of that first visit was really starting to fade.

Those trips have come to an end for a while, I think. Back to square one, I guess. Maybe I'll cheer myself up with a trip to Sutliff.
