Thoughts and prayers to John Fay
John's blog
I underwent an angioplasty procedure Thursday. A stent was inserted in the my circumflex artery to open a 90 percent blockage. I'm fine. My leg's a little sore where they went in. But other than that I'm the same middle-aged, slightly overweight, semi-stressed-out guy with mortgage and a job. Probably like a lot of you.

"I started running, and I was thinking, 'first down, first down, first down,'" Flacco said of the run that came on first-and-10. "I got to the first-down point, and I thought, 'Oh, my gosh, I don't think there's anybody there.' I just started going upfield, and I just thought, 'I'm going to get in the end zone here.'"

Good lord.
After seeing Oklahoma play in person, I would rank the Sooners #33 in the country.
As in the 33rd NFL team.
