What I learned in Week 1 of the NFL season

 In Week 1 of the NFL season, I learned that...

- ...the NFC South will likely be renamed the AARP South, as three of the teams' four starting quarterbacks have 119 years between them (Tom Brady - 43, Drew Brees - 41, and Matt Ryan - 35).

- ..., to a road team, the only thing scarier than drunken men screaming is cardboard cutouts of those same drunken men screaming.

- ...one game with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers proves Tom Brady's 20 years with the New England Patriots were a fluke.

- ..., now that kneeling is being more widely accepted, Colin Kaepernick will likely start doing handstands during the national anthem, just to see if it catches on.

- ..., after the Lions went up 20-6 on the Chicago Bears, I sarcastically texted my dad that they were Super Bowl-bound. They went onto lose 27-23. This will go down in the history books as the start of the Rozniecki Curse - that or the Lions just suck.

- ...Andy Reid's so hot, he fogs up face-shields during night games in September.

- ...Joe Burrow's reaction to his team's missed field goal at the end of their game with the Los Angeles Chargers, which would have tied things, should immediately be placed onto the "Welcome to Cincinnati" sign.

- ..., if Vince Lombardi had spent his career with the Cleveland Browns organization, the Lombardi Trophy would instead be called the Someone Else Trophy.

- ...Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins recently said about the COVID pandemic, "If I die, I die." When it comes to facing the Green Bay Packers, he should say, "When I lose, I lose," because he always loses.

- ..., as the team is located in DC, the former "Redskins" franchise should be renamed the Washington Grifters and just be done with it.

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i...
