The Red Man likes to let off steam after Game Day
A walk in the woods is just the ticket
What’s behind Door # 1?
Nothing evidently. It’s locked.
Bummer…I’m tired…let’s ride
Well Sports Fans, as you all know, The Red Man likes to spend Saturdays with 82,000 of his closest Amigos and their Cocks whether they are at home or away. The first Saturday of November they were at home in Williams Brice Stadium and were fired up and ready to play another group of Bulldawgs – this time from MissyPrissy State.
Defensive Cocks may have been the last ones out of the tunnel…
…but Saturday was their day to be First to receive The Red Man’s Paw Snaps and Twirls. In a bruiser of a contest, the D played great to hold the Bulldawgs to 16 points and force 5 turnovers that set up the Offense to score 34 points to win the game. Sweet Lady Gaga. If the D hadn’t shown up, the Cocks could’ve come up too short to win.
The Red Man sends Paw Snaps and Twirls to Victor Hampton who had a spectacular game with 8 tackles, 3 pass break-ups, and a forced fumble he recovered. Wow Victor you are a Rocking Cock!
Although the Offense had a Bad Day at Black Rock, running back Mike Davis gets Paw Snaps and Twirls for his 128 yards rushing which put him over the 1,000 yards mark for the regular season with three games left to play. See Mike run. See Mike catch passes. See Mike smile. See how much The Red Man and Pretty love Mike.
The old lady Slow was also pumped to see her Longhorns hook Kansas 35 to 13 in a Big 12 conference win that keeps their hopes alive for the Conference Championship Game. Paw Snaps and Twirls to Texas running back Malcolm Brown who ran for 119 yards and 4 touchdowns. See Malcolm run. See Mack Brown smile. See how much Mack Brown and Slow love Malcolm Brown. (Hey, are these Browns related?)
Two weekends in a row of Heavy Duty Football monitoring have made my nerves jangle so I was happy for the hike on Sunday. Thank the Gods of Daylight Savings Time for the extra hour of sleep Saturday night. Tough getting used to having breakfast an hour later, though. Oh well, you can’t have everything.
Get me outta here Percy…I need to see what that old woman has on tap for us today.

Who is the Missy Prissy State, Sheila. Nothing like a walk after such excitement Get me outta here Percy – I’ve always wanted to say that. 🙂

Don, forgive us for our little state names jokes – Missy Prissy is Mississippi, which is the small state between Alabama and Louisiana on the Gulf Coast of the USA. You gave us a laugh when you said Get me outta here Percy! 🙂
That saying is not original to The Red Man, if the truth be known. Many, many years ago there was a radio show called Leonard’s Losers which was a guy who called the winners/losers for the upcoming College Football Saturday earlier in the week. He always had something clever to say about each game and then would end with his prediction: Leonard’s Loser – South Carolina, Texas, etc.
At the end of the show he would say “Get me outta here Percy” so the old woman Slow thought that was funny and stole it. He doesn’t mind because he died a long, long time ago.

Thanks Sheila. I shall now always think of Mississippi (helluva lot of s’s and p’s hey) as Missy Prissy. And thanks for the explanation of that great little phrase.

Congrats to your Gamecocks, Red Man. My humans and I were happy to have a Saturday off from Tiger football. Of course, my humans could not be without sports on a Saturday, so they traveled down to New Orleans to watch the newly renamed NBA Pelicans win their first game of the new era. But now that another Monday has rolled around, we are getting our game faces on as we prepare for the Bama game. Wish us luck. We’re going to need it.

Believe me when The Red Man says the bleacher seats at Casa de Canterbury will be filled with LSU Tiger Fans this weekend when you go up against Bama!! We think you have a great chance and know how important this game is…Go Tigers, Miss Harper Lee!! The Cocks have a bye week this week so we will catch up on much-needed rest and stress reduction! 🙂
