Clips with Coach: THE NUMBER IS STILL TWO!

Will Farrell, is that you?

Two. That is the number of NFL teams left. We do pay attention to other sports (I was the star of College Gameday at West Point this fall, in case you didn’t remember), and the Superbowl is always a great party! Does anyone else think Ben Roethlisberger looks like Will Farrell? Editor’s Note: No.

It is also the number of children Julie and Tim Turnbull now have (I would include their names but they are too hard to spell). It is the number of putts “Johnny Vegas” had on 18 to win the Bob Hope Classic Sunday (he three putted – but beat former college basketball player Gary Woodland on the second playoff hole). It is the number of games Syracuse lost this week (not enough), and it is still the number of unbeatens in Division I college basketball (ha, and you thought we were going to talk about other sports).

What Exactly is Going on in this Picture?

Shovelers outside my office on Arlington Street

Ok, Mother Nature. I’ve had about enough of this crap. I’ve never seen so much snow in my entire life. For the past week I’ve been permanently in my snow boots, hat and North Face down-comforter coat, and while I may look adorable, it does not make up for the hours spent trekking to work in snow and ice and the amount of time I’ve spent shoveling my car out of its parking space.

To lighten the mood, I did stumble upon something very odd this morning (see picture above). Approximately seven men (and women?), all dressed in Gordon’s Fisherman rain gear, with identical red shovels, intently shoveling the same corner (Arlington and Stuart) at the very same time. I’ll admit, the weather’s horrendous, but does one corner require so much attention? Please note, as of 9 a.m., Arlington Street only had a bit of a dusting.
