I have a question:
"10---number of human years that I've gotten to celebrate Kennan's birthday with him :)"
Does this include the number of birthdays you were invited to because you were his baby sitter?
Yes, I am wrong!!
Oh, snap!
Sam Negus on Chandra Crane and Football by the numbers:
4: The number of years Reggie Ball has disappointed Tech fans as a starter. (Starter being the crucial phrase because he is certainly no finisher).
Too bloody many to remember without tears: The number of interceptions thrown at the single worst moment in any given crunch game that an interception could have been thrown.
21: The number of the receiver to which, had a well-trained chimpanzee been throwing, GT might have won it all, or at least beaten Ga.
0: The percent change that the Reggie factor of heartbreak will not be replaced by some other recurring nightmare at Bobby Dodd.
12: The number of years early Chandra will die of heart failure if she keeps investing emotionally in GT football beyond its capacity to return dividend.
0: The percent chance of Chandra betting with market in her football investor’s portfolio of grief and misery.
1,500,000: The number kudos points earned with Sam Negus for this incredible show of fanatical fortitude and integrity by a bird. And a bird who could probably out curse me at a football game at that.
(Chandra's mother in law, if you're reading this comment, I made that up. Your daughter in law is ALWAYS in control).
