Well Amigos, it was a bad weekend at Casa de Canterbury this weekend. The old woman Slow and Pretty were underwhelmed by their Cocks this weekend as they got beat in the last few minutes of their college football game in a mild upset loss to the Wildcats of Kentucky. I say mild upset to everyone except Slow and Pretty. They were “mighty” upset. Heh, heh. My little joke for a Monday morning. I know that’s lame, but it’s early.
Slow was further annoyed that her Texas Longhorns lost to Baylor, too, but then that wasn’t a big surprise to anyone in the state of Texas except perhaps UT head coach Charlie Strong who we are cutting some slack in his first year while he gets to know Bevo.
How bad was it at our casa?
It was SOOO bad Chelsea and Spike went upstairs to the guest room
Yep, when you can’t stand the heat, get out of the bleacher seats and head for higher ground. Whew – the language alone will scorch you if you’re not careful.
The Red Man sends Paw Snaps and Twirls to the entire state of Missy Prissy for their big home wins this weekend in Upsets – Bulldogs over the Aggies and Rebels over the Crimson Tide. Alabama’s Coach Saban is going to have to work on his “why we lost” speech since he never had to have one until the last couple of years. Oh, well. Practice makes perfect, as The Red Man is fond of saying.
So it’s Monday morning, and time for all of us Monday a.m. quarterbacks to bark about what we would have done if only we’d been the coach. Here’s a shout out to the Gamecocks’ Old Bald Coach from one of his biggest fans: the horse you draw is the one you ride and when one of your “hosses” is running like a son of a gun, put the ball in his hands to save the day. You can quote The Red Man on that one.
Have a great week, Sports Fans and stay tuned to see if The Red Man is offered any coaching positions anytime soon.
Get me outta here Percy…I need to prepare for my close up…
Well Red, by now you know Ma doesn’t know a football from the ball of her foot, but she says, judging from all the unhappy Alabamans in her Facebook feed, it was a bad weekend in the South for football fans. We send our sympathies. But please feel for Cassie P and me.Ever since that horse moved in, Ma isn’t home much on weekend afternoons to cuddle with us. She keeps saying she’ll turn over a new leaf, but looks like we’ll have to wait until all the leaves fall from the trees!!! 😀
We love you guys whether your teams win or not!
Hugs and Sloppy Poppy kisses.
Your Pops, Cassie Potatoes, Zeus Almighty, and Ma

Dearest Poppy, Cassie P, Zeus Almighty, and Ma,
Hahaha – good one about football and the ball of her foot! And yes, the Alabama faithful had a bad day in Missy Prissy so I imagine your cousins down there were not happy campers, either!
All of us at Casa de Canterbury were wondering about You and Cassie P, Pops!!
Seems like your Ma has her hands full with Zeus Almighty with not a lot of time to cuddle with her favorites! 🙂
We understand the time thing – that’s how Pretty is, too. But luckily the old woman Slow hangs around the house – God help us if she ever can get a horse!!!!
Take care and love each other,
The Red Man

My consolation to a Texas loss is that Oklaoma and Alabama got beat. I try and cling to that tiny bit of joy as I cry myself to sleep. Let Mr Kiffin try and talk his way out of that one. Cocks indeed, Percy.
