Is he.Who dat.No ... Not some mysterious Idiom Football coach.
" The Grand Old Man of Football is now in his mideighties but still
as sharp as a tack."
No not Football legend and once esteem NCAA reigning
Division One Coach named Joe Paterno.They { some toots starting out as a
Writer managed to create a huge scandal with the Jerry Sandusky
case } and Old Man Paterno was used as head pawn.
But eventually You ended up knowing dat.
No so with North Dakota Governor { Former 2 term } Doug Burgum
who was Interviewed this Friday on Salem Radio's Hugh Hewitt
show.And yes,as usual it had " Morning Glory " and a few tidbits of
Hewitt slang { because he's an admitted Poor speller } blaming it on
being an Ohioan.
Nevertheless,this Mr.Burgum was very impressive.Knew his stuff
and had great clearity on Issues and policy.Was plain spoken and
never beat around the mulberry bush or was caustic.
He explained his Father and his education and about the importance
of Serving our Country and taking care of bidness { I can mispell also }.
He almost seemed the perfect candidate.I doubt he prefers to wear
a hat even though he just threw some hat into the political ring
on June 7th.Used to be Political candidates almost to a tee
wore a hat.Not that Abe Lincoln should be singled out.But why
not.
" *Let us have faith that right makes right,and in that
faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we
understand it. "
-- Abraham Lincoln
* { The Cooper Union Speech got him
the Presidency }. Feburary 27,1860

 
Interesting Thought it might be about Mortuary who is as big as a coach .
 
Beyond me scope of interest.If not those like a Pop Warner,
Knute Rockne or maybe Paul Brown.
Of course O.J.Simpson was probably the Greatest
running back of al time,he had a dual personality.
So did Jim Brown to some degree.
He treated women like Pharoahs did in time past.
But he was a fairly good action film actor.
I bet like maybe 13 americans today knew he was a
Lacross player at Syracuse.He personally experienced
Racism while at Syracuse.Like big time.Could explain why his
movie roles were so manly and no pussyfootin' around.
