I agree. I too am SO sad football is over. The season seems to go way too fast. But it was a great Superbowl to watch. I am glad for Jerome "The Bus" Bettis that they won. Also VERY happy for coach Cower (I think that is how it is spelt. No disrespect intended if I spelt coachs name wrong). Have a great day Stephen!

I want so bad to join your congratulations to Steelers fans...unfortunately I recognized one of their kickers as someone who used to beat me up in middle school.

So instead, I'm just going to express my sympathy to Seahawks fans.

lol. That's funny because you never think of kickers as tough guys. :)
I was pulling for the underdogs as well.

You know I had to get in on anything football.

That thing on Sunday evening was a joke. Not even comaprable to a BCS bowl.

Now we can start watching the World Poker Championships for a change. Haha

Be good big guy.

I wish I shared some of your romantic notions about football people!! Fortunately, I don't. I am glad it's over, it was unashamedly biased, and appallingly boring!!!

The only thing about football I would miss if I ever missed it at all would be big muscular men running around in tights

Hey Stephen,

What was your points spread? How much did you think the Steelers would win by?

Good to post here again.

Hey Sumeeta! You were missed. I didn't have a points spread. I was just kicked back with a couple of Red Stripes being entertained...well somewhat. :)

DC Legend: Chicken Wings & Mumbo Sauce

-
Image
Mumbo Jumbo Noun. 1. Confusing or incomprehensible language or activity. 2. An obscure ritual or incantation. [Mandingo origin.] American Heritage Dictionary Of the English Language Mumbo sauce? Anyone who has ever traveled east of the Anacostia River has heard the term, Mumbo Sauce. What do I mean by east of the river? I mean if you have ventured anywhere near Benning Road, Wheeler Road, Southern Avenue, or Minnesota Avenue in North/Southeast Washington, D.C. There is no way that you can go into any Korean owned and operated “Kerry-Out” [ trans. Carry-Out food ] in DC and not hear someone order french fries with chicken wings and Mumbo Sauce. Impossible! Some like it on the chicken and others (like me) like it on the side. I’ve always thought of Mumbo Sauce as a DC thang, but where did it really come from?  Actually, Mumbo Sauce originated on Chicago's Southside in the early 1950s by a man named Argia B. Collins, who was known for his famous ribs and barbeque Mumbo Sauce. N...

Remembering Linda Pollin

Image
I grew up in the  Linda Pollin Memorial Housing Projects.   First of all, I did not know that it was built in memory of Abe Pollin's daughter.  In fact, I didn't even know the name, Abe Pollin.  I was a child, so I thought it was just a name given to the apartments.  At the time, my siblings and I had no idea that we lived in a housing project.  Well, the complex had a swimming pool, and the grounds were well kept. Also, it didn't resemble the well known surrounding projects like  Valley Green , Condon Terrace , or Wahler Place . The manager was Ms. Royster who was sort of a no-nonsense type of landlord based on the conversations I heard from grownups.  However, she seemed nice; plus, we all played with and knew her son, John. Well, although Mr. Pollin passed away back in 2009, I would still like to thank him for building the "LP" as we used to call it.  When I became old enough to learn that it was built by Mr. Pollin to honor his ...

Frank Brown (A.K.A. Uncle Ben???)

Did you know that Uncle Ben was a real person? We really don't care who is fact or fiction when we want some rice to go with those red beans or peas. We just want to eat, right? Well, Uncle Ben was a African American rice farmer from Texas who won many prizes for his methods and quality in growing rice. I know that most of us think of Asia when it comes to the cultivation and quality of rice, but there was a region in West Africa that Europeans called the "Rice Coast" near Sierra Leone. That area was a strategic focus during the slave trade in the late 1760's because rice was becoming a fast growing industry in America. Uncle Ben's ancestors were most likely victims of the rice boom. Anyway, Uncle Ben's reputation grew and his rice soon became the standard in which all rice would be measured. How did his face get on the box? Did he start his own company? Well, no. That's not even his face on the box. The face on the box was a man from Chicago named Frank B...
