My thoughts by Paul M. Dugan

So ND football took a “L” for a close game to team they shouldn’t be in the game but that’s what you get getting a QB that didn’t practice this spring at all after ankle surgery & rehab also with it.  I hope ND learns that not all transfers work at all.  I hear that clemson hasn’t took one in a while.  Just saying.  Oh boy those people that they new college football didn’t no squat about our opponents always guns for us for they’re champions game.  Sorry about that I didn’t watch much of game to begin with since I haven’t watch a full sports event in a long time because can’t change the outcome when I watch the game.   College football rankings after this past weekend action: USA Today poll as of Sept. 8th, 2024: Georgia Ohio state Texas Alabama Ole Miss Oregon Penn state Missouri Tennessee Utah University of spoiled children Miami (FL.)

 I am in two to three fantasy leagues while watch this 2024 - 2025 Premier League.   I am still routing for my team called Manchester United F.C. since there defense has being very loose since Sir Alex retired as manager this days.   I know that ManCity won UEFA champions league two years ago.  In this league it’s hard to win four trophies before years end.  Lots of leagues try to get three trophies instead of four for those ones.  

             My health is getting better as time goes by on dealing with my issues also.  We had some friends of our again when they lived here for year and half from United Kingdom from long ago.  We tried show them new and old stuff while they visited other friends when they were town like a going to a Nationals baseball game & our pool we belong to in the neighborhood (it relaxes us allot).   I do my own water therapy for my left shoulder to help it out.  I took them to the pool two to three times while they’re in town.  They stayed at Airbnb mostly while they were town for their visit.  They visited Air & Space Museum #2 called Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia and etc.  right now their at Busch Gardens before heading to relax at the beach ( Rehoboth beach, Delaware) before heading back England.  By the way I was getting to know them again and some new faces to understand me also.  We tried our best to welcome them with open arms while they were town.

Collegefootball , I guess week1 is getting started for ND football versus TexasA&M on Saturday 31st of August around 7:30pm et ABC tv channel.  We going to try to watch it anyway.  I hear that college gameday by ESPN will be at this game.   A.P.

More details on my thoughts about it.  Later you all.  Olympics from France right here .  Still getting better health wise to get myself back this days.  What did you like better than opening ceremonies or closing ceremony from the Olympics?  Next summer Olympics are in L.A., Cal. so here it’s web site to see stuff correctly.  

Ok in my own words I think the Olympics (my update ) are going very well along as we have people know the sport explain it better and their favorites besides the USA team when they talk about it. Won’t do I update for well since some family are coming to visit in the next few days this month.  Weather update in Northern Virginia it’s very hot so I advise to go to your neighborhoodpool you belong to as much as you can.  I have being a few times already and that’s allot for me already in my book.  Lots summer of soccer in the United States of America again & I love it always.  There was another soccer game played at Notre Dame stadium again with ChelseaFC vs CelticFC.  Not sure but this helps you stay safe while on the internet by using DuckDuckGo device.  I don’t really like FIBA using dumb rules on our USA Basketball and it looks pretty bad for an international group destroys it.  What your opinion about this?

My birthday time was earlier this week.  I worked on my birthday by walking four dogs before coming back home.  I enjoy walking and take care of my clients dogs.  Earlier that day mom made a Boston cream cake for my birthday dessert.  We waiting for family to be picked up from the metro then we heading to my favorite restaurant called SweetwaterTavern .  All our food ( menu ) tasted pretty awesome.  We had appetizers before dinner while having drinks to decide on what to get.  I got a usually I get called short salmon salad with warm goat cheese in it.  The apps were called Ozzie rolls (sweet type of a doughnut hole or roll), firecracker shrimp & Tex Mex eggrolls.  I had a unsweetened tea for my drink.  Other food here rocks anyway.  I ate half at the restaurant that night then finished the rest for lunch between walks for work the next day.  I got a few cards for my birthday day.  Thanks to all.  Some of my family gave me some cool stuff for my birthday.  Items later describe… Mor

           My pick for this game is the Chiefs is a close game.  It’s just need to have running game with QB in it & turnovers will be key in this game.  All players will play hard all game.  Details for the Super Bowl LVIII :  well it involves Kansas City Chiefs (not Chefs) (AFC) vs San Francisco 49ers (NFC) on CBS around 6:30pm et for February 11th, 2024 Sunday - they met in the 2020 Super Bowl LIV by K.C.

  Hi there…,          Hope your January of 2024 had started out awesome for you all.    First all the crazy weather for a up & down time has being torch for my allergies so I have taken another medicine for it.    It’s being much better for me.    The terrible weather has hurt our schedule and made us stir crazy sometimes. Will Mother Nature or Father Winter come back to bite us? My job report:    Since it’s pretty cold or warm outside.    I took my client’s dog out for walk when it’s safe to do so.    I did get off two days when there was too much snow last week. A few sports topics I should mention:    NFL - Both AFC & NFC title game (bunch of ND football are on this rosters this time) look pretty interesting so who will get the Super Bowl LVIII this time?    College Basketball for Men & Women are rushing up for all of it.    Both University of NotreDame teams are doing as well as they can be.    ND football Blue/Gold is on this coming April & hope it’s good.
