3.4% unemployment is the lowest since 1969!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!** Our legislature has only about 9%approval. We vote them in so why would we keep voting in people we don’t approve of??

*****

Spy balloons? Aliens? If the media and politicians paid as much attention to all the injustices in the world as they did the big balloon, we’d be ok.** What about the train disaster in East Palestine, Ohio?? Vinyl chloride and who knows what else?  I mean 3.2 billion in earnings? I think we should listen to the rail company employees when it comes to safety issues. Trump peeled back so many regulations and Biden hasn’t fixed that situation yet so I guess we can look forward to more crashes. By the end of the month, this train story finally has some traction and is all over the news. The Biden administration sent people on the ground within 2 hours. It is unfortunate that the face of the department of transportation waited a couple of weeks to go. Trump used it as an opportunity to visit the site. Some of the local press called it returning to the scene of the crime.  ** After a private briefing about the things in our air space, Sen. Kennedy said, “Lock your doors.”** A sphere showed up on the shores of Japan.

So, I never really watch the View anymore but happened by it the other day and they were discussing how the Bidens ordered the same meal in a restaurant. They said that they heard people were bitching about it. They were all putting in their two cents worth. Why would people care and whose business is it what someone orders when they are dining? I do not get this world sometime and I can’t believe they are wasting ABC airtime with this.

*****

The U.S. is quadrupling troops in Taiwan.

*****

I can’t believe I got so excited that Micky Dolenz was on the Tonight Show and he only got a few minutes to talk and a few lines from Last Train to Clarksville. It is like Fallon is putting on a show in his basement where he gets to tell the first story and then go sing with the guest. What?

*****

In Florida, a Spectrum 13 news reporter and photographer were shot as they were at a homicide scene. The reporter, Dylan Lyons died and the shooter also made their way to a nearby home and killed a woman and her 9 year old daughter.

*****

Kyle Bush was busted in Mexico for firearm possession. He got 3.5 years and fined $1,100. He is still racing. Will he ever pay the consequences? It is doubtful because he is winning right now.

*****

George Santos told Piers Morgan that he told all his lies on an earlier campaign too, so he didn’t think he would get caught. Some republicans think that is an acceptable excuse.

*****

The latest Sexual misconduct news: R. Kelly and Harvey Weinstein just got more prison time.** Ashley Morgan Smithline who had accused Marilyn Manson of rape has recanted. Her case had been previously dismissed.

We are evolving nicely. Studies show that penis size is up 24% from 3 decades ago.

*****

Biden got a clean bill of health.

*****

Fox news was caught with their pants down in the Dominion trial. Behind the scenes back and forth between the Fox pundits shows just how they spoon fed their audience. They believed none of the conspiracies they spouted right up to the insurrection. ** A court filing shows that Rupert Murdoch gave Jared Kushner advance copies of Biden’s ads before they were made public.

Sean Duffy: Honoring HOFer Howley a ‘Great Day for Warwood’

If it were not for a fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers, the latest Dallas Cowboy to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame would not have a new, sizeable sign honoring him in his native neighborhood. That’s a fact, and it’s thanks to Sean Duffy, the director of the Adult Program and local history at the Ohio County Public Library. Duffy is a lifelong Steelers fan and still refers to his team’s nemesis-rival as the “Cryboys,” but a man named Chuck Howley was one of his childhood heroes, too. The former linebacker was elected to the Hall on February 9th and was formally enshrined on August 5th, and just yesterday – only 73 days later – City of Wheeling workers erected the signage along River Road. It was Sean who addressed Mayor Glenn Elliott – a devoted Steelers fan, as well – and City Council about the sign, and about naming the athletic field at Garden Park in honor of the Super MVP. Now, when the Warwood Redbirds, or any other team, play ball, it will be on “Chuck Howley Field.” Duffy’s appetite for local history is seldom satisfied, but when it comes to Howley’s career, he recognized many of his accomplishments may never be matched. He’s the only player who performed for the losing team in the Super Bowl that was named t game’s most valuable player. He was one of the original members of the Cowboy’s legendary “Dommsday Defense.” He was a six-time Pro Bowl selection. He’s the only student-athlete in WVU athletic history to letter in five sports So, yes, a devout and dedicated Steelers fan has cheered for a Cowboy because the defensive player is now officially recognized as one of the greatest of all time, and, of course, because Howley is one of our own. Duffy (in the back on the left) joined volunteers and city employees this week to erect the signage honoring the Hall of Famer. Why would a Steelers fan do anything nice for a Dallas Cowboy? Yeah, it's a fair point. As a child of the 70s who grew up with Camelot, the Cryboys were right there at the top (or the putrid, hellish bottom, if you will) of my football hate list with the Raiders and Browns. Yuck. But Chuck Howley was from Warwood, like me. He played for Corpus Christi, like me. And my dad said he was a great linebacker like Jack Ham. So yeah, anything for Chuck. If he'd played for the Steelers, he'd be my favorite player ever. But Coach Landry picked up the phone. Buddy Parker didn't. And for Chuck to overcome the Cryboy stench and get me to take action – admirable. What was Warwood like when Chuck Howley was raised in the neighborhood? Warwood of the 1940s and 1950s was the idyllic all-American small town, with street fairs, soda fountains, corner groceries, and blue-collar families. It was the kind of place where you never bothered to lock your doors, sat on the porch most evenings listening to baseball on the radio, had barbecues with your neighbors, and played in the streets until your mom hollered for you to come home after dark. In short, it was the same kind of place I grew up in thirty years later. On occasion, Duffy will join in on some of the historical re-enactments like this one with Dave Clutter as "Big" Bill Lias. What is the biggest difference in the game of football between now and when Howley played the game? The speed of the game is probably the biggest difference. Chuck was fast, but by today's standards, well, not so fast. The players are bigger, yes. Stronger, yes. More athletic, yes. But I can't help thinking, despite all of that, players like Chuck and Jack Ham could still find a niche in today's game just by virtue of their heart, intelligence, and competitive nature. Plus, Chuck was a diving and gymnastics champion. He was really a great all-around athlete. Chuck could still be a star today. Maybe he'd be more of a specialist, but he could play. How do you explain your passion for the history of the Wheeling area? It's just part of who I am. I love my hometowns (Warwood, Wheeling). The history of this area is relentlessly fascinating. I'm always "discovering" things I didn't know. Did you know, for example, that Chuck Howley ran a laundry after retiring from football? Yep. He had a contract with the Cowboys to clean their uniforms. Then he bought a ranch. This is a guy who bought a gas station in Wheeling when he thought injury had ended his football dreams. This dude was going to be a success, whatever he did. He just had that drive. What's the point? That's Wheeling's history as a whole – hard-working, driven people made this city. And we're still here. I love researching Wheeling history. Duffy and his wife, Patricia, gather with his mother and his sister, Erin, as often as possible. What is the greatest lesson you have learned in your life? Oh damn. Why do you have to hit me with a philosophical question at the end? Ok. The greatest lesson I have learned is that you should be who you are. Don't try to be what you aren't because it pays better. Follow your passion. And play the lottery. You'll flat-out do better and feel better. How's that? Duffy very much enjoyed having author William Sanderson at the library for a Lunch with Books program to speak about certain parts of Wheeling's history. Read the full article

The Third Bronze Medal Game

Super Bowl VII

Pittsburgh Steelers vs Dallas Cowboys

What changes: Don Shula does not give the reins back to Bob Griese and sticks with Earl Morrall. The Dolphins offense continues to struggle against the Steel Curtain and fall 17-10, thus ending their perfect season. Another alternative for Pittsburgh is what-if Terry Bradshaw wasn’t knocked out of the game with a concussion?

For Dallas, Tom Landry turns away from Roger Staubach after his heroics versus the 49ers erased a fifteen-point deficit. Craig Morton held the job as starter even after the ‘71 Super Bowl season because he didn’t break away from the designed plays. Roger was a loose cannon and at times could not be trusted. In his two games against division rival Washington, Morton compiled a respectable for the time, 21 of 44 passing, 235 yards, two touchdowns and the same number of interceptions, and a rushing touchdown. Dallas also averaged 27 points in two games against the NFC’s best defense.

The Morton-Staubach controversy is one of those quandaries at the time you could’ve seen yourself on either side. With the hindsight of history, Staubach obviously is far and away the superior option. Except, even after his Super Bowl winning stint as Dallas’ starter, the reliability of Morton, the known quantity enticed Landry more than the high ceiling of Staubach. Morton was a carbon copy of previous Cowboys great Don Meredith. No really! Look at their statistical outputs:

Craig Morton ‘69, ‘70, ‘72

(Morton started just four games in 1971 before Staubach usurped him)

Win/Loss: 28-9-1

Yards: 6,834

TDs: 51

INTs: 42

Cmp%: 53.07%

Attempts: 846

Completions: 449

Don Meredith ‘66-‘68

Win/Loss: 27-9-1

Yards: 7,139

TDs: 61

INTs: 40

Cmp%: 52.4

Attempts: 908

Completions: 476

In ‘71, the ten-games Staubach spent as starter he threw the ball just 211 times. His throws were brilliant, long range and electrifying contrasted with the methodic Morton. But to put into context how little trust Landry had in Staubach, Colin Kaepernick in the 7 regular season games he took over for Alex Smith in 2012 he attempted 218 passes.

The Cowboys never fancied themselves a team who did their damage in the air anyhow. The speedy backfield tandem of Calvin Hill (1,400) and Walt Garrison (1,174) accumulated 2,574 yards from scrimmage combined. More yards than Miami’s Larry Csonka (1,165) and Mercury Morris (1,168) mark of 2,333.

Staubach laid the biggest - maybe his only - egg of his career against Washington in the NFC Title Game. George Allen’s “Over The Hill Gang” mercilessly punished Roger sacking him three times, Dallas offense completing just 8 first downs. Washington would go on to be Miami’s final victim in their 17-0 season in the subsequent Super Bowl.

Dallas arguably, with Morton win against Washington and we have a rematch of the previous year’s championship game. Staubach needed the setbacks of ‘72 and ‘73 as learning curves. Morton, however, was already experienced enough.

For Pittsburgh, it was the first year of the Steel Curtain reshaping the identity the Steelers had of being a bunch of bottom-dwellers. Chuck Noll was hired in 1969 the Steelers from their inception in 1933 up until that point made the playoffs just once, in 1947. Noll inherits the worst team in the NFL. Many fans wanted a quarterback heading into the ‘69 draft where Pittsburgh occupied the fourth pick. Cincinnati product Greg Cook was tagged by many as a Steeler in waiting. Instead, Noll opted not for a quick fix and selected linebacker from North Texas Joe Greene. Fans were irate. Greg Cook is a story for another day. For the sake of brevity, Cook was described by Hall of Fame head coach Bill Walsh as the greatest quarterback he’s ever seen. This is the man who worked with Joe Montana. Cook dazzled in his rookie campaign leading the NFL in passing. Playing the second half of the ‘69 season with a partially torn rotator cuff, Cook only played one more game after his rookie year before Paul Brown told him to “get on with your life.” Perhaps if Kansas City Chiefs defenseman Jim Lynch hadn’t tackled Cook his bust would be in Canton, Ohio today.

Greene is the first player drafted in the formation of the Steel Curtain. Mel Blount, Mike Wagner, and Jack Ham followed. In 1972, only Miami’s “No Name Defense” held opponents to fewer points and by the slim margin of 4. The Steelers created an aura of being a team of destiny after their miraculous last play victory over the Oakland Raiders, dubbed “The Immaculate Reception.” Heading into the forth and final period, the Steelers lead Miami 10-7 and were a quarter away from the Super Bowl. Bradshaw had left the contest giving control to Terry Hanratty, he completed and attempted the same as Bradshaw, 5 of 10, but for fewer yards, 57 to the Blond Bomber’s 80. Bradshaw did throw a touchdown, though he also tossed two interceptions. Hanratty put Pittsburgh’s kicker Roy Gerela had his attempt blocked, the score stayed 14-10.

Shula pulled the struggling Morrall and Griese lead the Dolphins downfield, thanks to a 52-yard completion to deep threat Paul Warfield set the stage for one of Jim Kiick’s touchdowns putting them back in the driver's seat. Bradshaw heroically returned in an attempt to resurface the fledgling Steelers. Down 21-10, Bradshaw completed four consecutive passes for 71-yards, hitting Al Young (who doesn’t have a Wikipedia page) for the touchdown. The ensuing Dolphins possession ended in a punt. Life was back in the Three Rivers crowd. Perhaps they really are a team of destiny.

Turns out, there’s no such thing. Bradshaw threw back to back costly interceptions icing the game for Miami.

The loss wouldn’t be the only thing weighing heavily in the hearts of Steelers fans. Later that day, Pirates all-time great Roberto Clemente in the prime of his life and career perished in a plain crash in route to Nicaragua. Through all the despair hope remained on the horizon. But outside of 1976, I’d say this is the one Pittsburgh fans who were fortunate to live through their era of dominance wish they hadn’t left on the table.

So what-if they haven’t? What-if we had a Steelers vs Cowboys Super Bowl three-years before we actually got it?

The makeup of both these teams are different, for one. There is no Lynn Swann or John Stallworth to throw to. Ron Shanklin was Pittsburgh’s leading receiver with 38 catches. Frank Lewis lead the wideouts in touchdowns with 5. Though unglamorous, the Steelers offense got the job done thanks to thousand yard rusher rookie Franco Harris.

The Cowboys most prominent receivers were their aforementioned running backs. Ron Sellers lead the wideouts with 37 receptions. Veteran stalwart Mike Ditka was at the end of his rope and only caught 17. 1972 was his final year in the NFL.

Dallas on defense were lead by Pro Bowlers Bob Lilly, Mel Renfro, and free safety Cornell Green. These two teams met earlier in the season back in October, a game Dallas won 17-13 thanks to Landry’s trickery. Calvin Hill threw to Sellers for a 55-yard touchdown for the go-ahead score. The Steelers offense did much of nothing that day. Excluding the 55-yard play, the Cowboys didn’t do much better.

The contest starts slowly, as expected. Neither defense budges one iota. Flashbacks to Super Bowl V replay in Landry’s mind as he watches Morton wear black and gold. The Cowboys offensive line can’t maintain themselves in the face of the Steel Curtain. The Cowboys are scoreless at the end of the first half of play.

Pittsburgh fares better. Bradshaw marches his team up the field twice for two Gerela short range field goals and right before the end of the first half, Harris punches it in from the 5-yard line to give his team a commanding 13-0 lead. Landry contemplates handing the reins back to Staubach. His stinginess wins out this time and he sticks with Morton.

His faith in his quarterback is rewarded when Morton hits Sellers for a 15-yard pass to give the Cowboys six-points. After a Steelers three-and-out, Morton picks up right where he left off. On a 3rd & 10 at the Steelers 38, Morton hits the aging Ditka for a 13-yard gain. Two plays later, riding high off the momentum, Morton again Hits Sellers for surrounded by Steeler defenders for a 14-yard gain. Hill accepts the handoff a play later in red zone territory and passes the goal line. A Toni Fritsch extra-point gives Dallas their first lead 14-13.

In desperate need of answers the Steelers are left puzzled as another three-and-out gives the ball right back to the surging Cowboys who waste no time in trying to deliver the decisive blow. The red hot Morton manages to hit Sellers for 22-yards positioning Dallas well in Pittsburgh territory. At the Steelers 15, it was all or nothing at this point for both sides. Landry knew the next few play calls would define this game. Garrison is stuffed on back to back rushes, and Morton finds little options rolling out before being tackled for a gain of just two. Fritsch manages to extend Dallas’ lead 17-13 meaning Pittsburgh would have to drive the length of the field in order to squeak out a win.

Accepting the ball with 6:18 left, the Steelers again go three-and-out. Angst defines the best of the Steeler sideline. On forth & 12 the length is too long to contemplate going for it. Noll elects to punt in hopes Dallas fails to both take time off the clock and score. Garrison gets the ball and runs up for twelve-yards near midfield. The Cowboys look ready to silence every demon they’ve ever conjured through past playoff failures. Instead, they come right back. Morton’s intended pass to Sellers is picked off by defensive end Dwight White, and just like that, the Steelers get the ball back with prime field position to boot.

Marching to Dallas’ fifteen, the pocket collapses on Bradshaw forcing him to scramble. He scurries for the score diving at the last second before Super Bowl V MVP Chuck Howley could stop him. The Steelers regain the lead for which they wouldn’t relinquish this time and capture their first world title.

2nd

PIT - Roy Gerela FG 37 yd

PIT - Roy Gerela FG 38 yd

Bradshaw - 15-20, 186 yds, 1 rush TD *Super Bowl MVP*

Pittsburgh: 286 total yards

Dallas: 283 total yards

In what would turn out to be Morton’s last stand as QB for the Lone Star team, Landry learned to make his peace with the rowdy Staubach and gave him full autonomy of the offense the following season and wouldn’t live to regret it. Meanwhile, jubilation overcomes the Steelers who scurry on the field embracing any person within arms reach. From the laughingstock of the NFL to becoming the envy of all, Pittsburgh overcame all of the odds mounting three straight come from behind victories en route to their championship.

Not My Intent

Warning: NSFW

Summary: An alternate universe version of Intent and what happened between Detective Sonny Carisi and his partner Detective Janelle Harris after 'The Barrel' bar fight.

I was filled with excited energy as my partner Sonny and I exited the taxi and walked to my motel room. It was late and I was still on a high from slugging that one bar patron hell bent on hurting Sonny and I couldn't let that happen no matter what alcoholic beverage was accidently spilt on him and his girlfriend. It wasn't Sonny's fault that Deputy Sheriff Chuck Howley was drunk.

With his hand on the small of my back Sonny laughed as he remarked on our latest adventure.

"You gotta admit that was fun. That was fun."

Returning his smile I nodded.

"That was so much fun. I haven't had that much fun since Christmas 2005."

I stop to search in my pocket for my room key.

"This is where I get off." I say indicating my motel room.

Sonny looks relaxed and happy. He's wearing a grey Henley shirt with blue jeans and black boots. His brown leather jacket is giving off some major greaser vibes and I'm really digging it.

"You know there's something nice about not always having to act like a cop. You know we could have taken all of those guys. You know."

His hand is on the door and as he speaks he's getting closer to me and I can feel my heartbeat quicken.

"I know we could."

Sonny admires my embroidered black satin Brooklyn Nets bomber jacket before handing it back to me.

"Anyway you're one hell of a partner."

His speech is slightly slurred making his Staten Island accent even more pronounced and in my mind so incredibly sexy.

Smiling I point at his chest and say.

"You too."

"Nah you got my back. I can't tell you how much I appreciate that. Not just tonight."

Sonny’s voice drops to an even lower octave as he leans closer to me. His lips just inches from mine.

My heart is doing literal flip flops in my chest because I can't believe what is about to happen. Sonny is going to kiss me.

Sonny's lips are brushing mine. Softly at first as he tries to figure out if I want this as much as he does. Believe me if I could shout from the rooftops how crazy I am about this man I would. But I got to keep my cool.

Taking a hold of either side of his leather jacket I pull Sonny closer deepening the kiss. Soft whimpers escaping me as I wrap my arms around him. God, he smells so good and I want his kisses to go on forever.

"Would you like to come in?" I ask opening the door to my room.

He hesitates for a second and my heart sinks. Then I remember why. Sonny just recently broke up with his girlfriend.

"I'm not some rebound fuck Sonny. So if you're feeling weepy about Arielle you need to go back to your own room."

I'm angry that I allowed myself to get so caught up in what I thought was a romantic moment. As I turn away Sonny grabs my hand.

"I've wanted you from the moment I laid eyes on you."

His words are slowly breaking down the walls that I've built up.

"I just didn't think that I would ever have a chance with you."

I'm blushing now as the butterflies in my stomach go straight to my heart.

"Really?" I say softly.

"Yeah." he says.

Giving Sonny a sexy smile I pull him into my room and close the door. Within seconds we're kissing and tearing off each others clothes, leaving a complete disaster in our wake.

I know what you're thinking. That's all it took. All he had to do is tell you he wanted you and now your willing and ready to fuck your partner? But if you could see the way he's looking at me right now. You wouldn't be saying this. I couldn't pass up an opportunity to sleep with Manhattan’s Finest Detective even if I am a little drunk.

He is being so sweet about it asking if I'm sure.

"I just don't want to take advantage of you doll." he says.

And the way he says it with that sexy Staten Island accent of his if I wasn't so fucking horny I'd be melting right now.

"Because of the work we do I know you have to ask Sonny. So I'm giving you permission to fuck me."

For our first time together the location wasn't ideal. Some fleabag motel on the edge of town with lawn jockeys. Maybe if things work out in the bedroom department this could become a weekly thing. Every woman needs a release. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

"Admit it you've thought about us fucking." he says.

I'm pleading the fifth.

"I really love this shirt on you. I'd like it better if it was on the floor. Your jeans too."

I couldn't wait to see what treasures awaited me once his clothes came off. Sonny's upper body is on the thin side, lean and not overly built. He has a smattering of chest hair on both his pecs that travel down his stomach and stop just above his waist.

I go for his belt, quickly removing it before unzipping his jeans and discarding his boxer briefs. When I first laid my eyes on what Sonny was packing I understood why he walks the way he does, my partner is fucking hung.

"Oh my God Dominick, you're huge. I can't wait to get my lips around you."

Just the sight of him in all his glory was making my mouth water. I wasted no time getting on my knees. I wanted to worship at the alter of Dominick Giuseppe Carisi Jr.

I took him all the way down my throat and very slowly started to blow him.

"Doll, such a tease." Sonny groaned as he tried to direct my movements, taking a hold of my head and thrusting into my mouth.

Taking him out of my mouth I shake my head.

"Detective I'm gonna blow you the way I like, alright?"

Sonny laughs.

"Okay babygirl."

Sticking out my tongue I lick Sonny from base to tip before taking him in my mouth again, sliding my lips over his ever growing length.

"Janelle, baby keep going. You suck me off so good."

If my mouth wasn't otherwise occupied I would be smiling. But I wasn't quite finished pleasuring Sonny. Removing my lips from around his cock I proceeded to give Sonny a handjob while I gave his balls some much needed attention, licking and sucking each one into my mouth until he was moaning above me.

"Babydoll, if you keep that up you're gonna make me cum"

Sonny gives me his hand and leads me to the bed where he lays down next to me. His lips are so soft and his kisses leave me breathless as he trails them down the length of my body but he suddenly stops to look at my navel piercing.

He touches the delicate piece of jewelry and smiles.

"A sun. Is this for me?"

To answer his question at a time where I'm literally naked and vulnerable. I'm seconds away from having my dream man inside me.

I bite my lip and say.

"When I saw it I was thinking about you."

Sonny's resting on his side now my pleasure obviously forgotten.

"You're not going to get weird are you?

He's staring at me with those beautiful crystal blue eyes.

"How often do you think about me?"

"Dominick."

I'm trying to distract him because I'm not ready to talk about my feelings. I start to get up and frantically begin searching for my bra and off the shoulder black top.

He takes a hold of my wrist.

"Janelle Marie."

Hearing Sonny say my full name throws me off guard.

"We were having a good time. Why did you have to go and ruin it?"

He softly touches my cheek.

"It can't be ruined if I want us to be more."

I shake my head.

"It's just sex Sonny. I'm attracted to you. Why can't that be enough?"

I pull him closer, wrapping both my arms around his neck and kiss him with a passion I didn't know I was capable of expressing. Sonny groans as we fall back on to the bed. He looks at me with a yearning that I know is also reflected in my eyes.

"Sonny, make love to me."

Just like that our conversation is done and Sonny is slowly removing my panties. I can feel how wet I already am for him before he's even touched me.

Licking his fingers he plunges two inside me, pumping them in and out until I'm softly whimpering.

"How are you so wet for me doll?"

"Sonny." I moan trying to make him go deeper.

"Babygirl, I'm not going anywhere. We have all night."

His head is buried between my legs and his perfect hair not so perfect anymore after getting my hands on it. He's sucking, licking and nibbling on my lips as he pulls my clit into his mouth.

"Dominick."

"Does that feel good doll? You like the way I eat your pussy?"

"Yes."

Sonny smiles.

"I love it too baby. You taste so good."

My heart was pounding so hard with his praise. All I wanted to do was give myself to him. Be open to whatever he wanted to do to me.

"Janelle Marie. Do you want me as much as I want you?"

"Even more Sonny. Please make love to me."

Sonny smiles as he dips his head to softly kiss me, trailing his gorgeous lips along my body. His fingertips press into my heated flesh. I can't get enough of the emotions he's able to bring out of me.

"God," he groans. "Every inch of you is beautiful."

He's between my legs. I can feel how hard he is. His length is pressing against my stomach. All I want is to feel him inside me. Moving those sexy hips as he plunges deeper wanting to satisfy me.

When he finally does he moves slowly at first allowing me the time to get used to his size. And boy can Sonny move. The way he looks at me is making my body react more quickly.

"There you go. You like what I'm doing to you baby?"

"Dominick."

"Yeah. I love the way you’re making me feel too doll."

"You’re making me so wet. Feels so good. Dominick I'm going to cum."

Wrapping my legs around him I can feel how deep he is. I trail my hands down his back where they come to rest just above his butt. His perfect ass feels so amazing as his pace quickens to bring on my orgasm.

"Dominick, right there. Don't stop."

He leans down to kiss me and the softness of his lips brings on the most intense feeling I've ever experienced. Sonny is making me feel like it's Fourth of July. Fireworks are going off inside me. I don't want it to end because being with him makes me happy. And it's with that realization that my orgasm crashes like waves over my body.

"That's it Janelle. Cum for me baby."

Then those three little words I never thought would pass my lips come tumbling out.

"I love you Sonny."

A look I never thought I'd see comes over Sonny's face. But with each thrust of his hips Sonny is getting closer. He's picking up the pace and like me is ready to fall over the edge.

"Baby, I love you too."

And when he does I'm right there next to him as he kisses and cradles me in his arms. Our future as lovers realized.

Super Bowl er allerede det mest sette arrangementet i USA

Hver sportsbegivenhet har ikke stor innvirkning når den først starter, og det er den samme situasjonen i de første dagene av Super Bowl. Super Bowl pleide å være et vanlig spill med billetter for bare $6, og den første begivenheten ble det eneste spillet i historien som ikke klarte å bli utsolgt. Dagens Super Bowl har blitt den mest sette begivenheten i USA, og Aaron Donalds Los Angeles Rams Drakter har vært ettertraktet av mange fans denne sesongen.

Den tidlige NFL har sitt eget marked og innflytelse i USA, og forretningsmannen Lamar Hunt er ivrig etter å ha et eget lag. Men etter at han forhandlet med ligaen flere ganger og ble nektet å kjøpe franchisen, grunnla han AFL med venner. Den nye organisasjonen, AFL, er NFLs første konkurrent, og den har fordeler når det gjelder innflytelse, kampoppmøte, TV-sendinger og spillertransaksjoner. Førte til slutt til at NFL valgte å samarbeide med AFL, noe som også skapte begynnelsen på den nåværende utviklingen av ligaen.

Den første Super Bowl Finals-mesteren viste seg å være Green Bay Packers, og det påfølgende mesterskapstrofeet ble kåret til en hyllest til den legendariske Green Bay Packers-treneren Vince Lombardi. Chuck Howley, iført en Dallas Cowboys Drakter, vant Super Bowl MVP i den femte Super Bowl. Han er den første spilleren i NFL-historien som taper en kamp for å vinne MVP-miraklet. Alt i fortiden la grunnlaget for fremtiden til Super Bowl, og nå er ligaens innflytelse veldig sterk.

#54, But Twice as Nice: It's Chuck Howley and Randy White's World, We're Just Living In It

#54, But Twice as Nice: It’s Chuck Howley and Randy White’s World, We’re Just Living In It

After a two-day hiatus of Countdown to Kickoff posts, we’re back in business, baby. Currently, we sit 54 days until the Dallas Cowboys kickoff against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and while that may seem like a long time, if you have been able to live through the Cowboys 26-year Super Bowl drought, you can handle the wait. All jokes aside, I was excited about this number when it came around because…
