Tebow – The “it” Guy with the X Factor
Some people just have “it.” Call it the X Factor; call it charisma. In the NFL, rookie QB Tim Tebow has “it.” Sports pundits have been waxing rhapsodic about him since he was drafted last April. I saw “it” firsthand on Sunday at Denver, when the Broncos did not beat the Chargers. BUT, when Tebow…
Read MoreThe Colts Didn’t “Back Up” – Do You?
I love Peyton Manning, Quarterback of the Indianapolis Colts. I love his command of his job and his team and his ability to win games – even in the last two minutes. He inspires me to give my all to my job, and never give up. I dedicated my book to him, along with my…
Read MoreFootball and Business: Coming From Behind, and Never Giving Up!
Week 4 of the16-week NFL season looms large. But we, who champion the underdog, had a fine time with Week 3. Two teams, who have historically been “losers”, have started the season 3-0.

Football is such inspiration…ladies, there is so much to LOVE about watching football, it’s not even funny!

I’m telling you, the NFL brings out the beast in men, but…
Read MoreBusiness and Football: Do Businesses Experience the Super Bowl Hangover?
NFL Football is back! And am I happy! I bid adieu to my family (brother, sister) last Sunday for all future Sundays. Told them the next Sunday they would see me without a TV screen in front of my face would be next February. Super Bowl Sunday is my annual Super Bowl/Birthday Bash for Family,…
