Flew an NCAA football charter today. While waiting for the team we were all chilling in first class watching the UGA/SC game. Then of course got fed like kings after we dropped them off. I love this time of year!

Oh, and an empty 737-800 with only 10,000 lbs of fuel climbs like a freaking rocket. Pegged it at 7000 fpm all the way up through 10,000 feet! That was a nice way to end my year and a half on the 737.

And so I move on to fifi land...

Have fun at training "bus boy"

Great time to be in MSP. I found a little place for breakfast that is owned by one of our flight attendants, guess it's been in her family for 20 something years. I'll find the name and info and PM it to ya. Just a little coffee shop about a block from the hotel, but good food and a nice lady.

Hey Ferd, those Dust Devils looked good, a lot better than my Wild Kitties.

And it's not because I'm sitting in the cockpit beside you trying to win brownie points for some unknown reason. We're in separate worlds, different airlines as some say, I still think UT can win the east.

What happens in the SEC Championship game? Who knows. Who is going to survive the wild west? You might win it all T, because cripples will walk in to ATL after ARK, MSST, LSU, AUB and ALA beat the snot out of each other.

I'm still thinking Wisconsin is going to be in the national championship game and teams are going to seriously start scouting out the 1-and-done QB to help their teams get over the hump if Auburn and Wisconsin go back to back on this.

You have way more confidence than I... unless we learn how to run the ball.. we goin' down next week. I am full of dread.

Yeah not to bad, and even an overtime win. They finally have a lot of good guys at the skill positions but they still take too many penalties/errors. Which according to my hard a$$ HS coach was a sign of poor conditioning (so give me some wind sprints)

Well see, the meat of the schedule (that includes youze guyz) is still ahead.

I flew with a flight attendant recently that was mourning the death of her cat. She even held a funeral for it.

I wonder if the cat ran out into the road on purpose? Did you ask that?
