George, I was just wondering

A lot of lineman tend to stay the same or even ballon further up.  Kudos to those who took weight off.
It's hard as hell to diet.  I know, there are times when my stomach thinks my throat was slit.

BRB....someone's at the door.

George...another three years there, and you'd have  been fast-breaking it to Reggie Miller.

LOL.  In the 2 pictures of Jeff there is at least a 50 lb. difference.  In the 2 pictures of Tom (the Patriot who usually wins the prefered parking space at Gilette for being the hardest, most dedicated worker in preseaon workouts), maybe 15 lbs.   You know I'm just kidding around.   But, like I always try to tell you G., don't hate, appreciate.

Not sure of the message being conveyed by the above pic.  Is that a buddy of yours from S.C. who happens to have a partially concealed dangerous weapon tucked in his pants?  Really not sure of the "midwest" connection here, if one was intended. 

Come on now, you gotta admit that when you gave us your "midwestern strong" song and dance, and I came back with the John Dillinger, gangster, born in Indianapolis, died in Chicago, Wanted Poster, it was a stroke of sheer comedic brilliance on my part.  Come on.  Get over your reluctance.  Give it up for me.   That was like taking one to the house.   Then faking the point after, converting for 2, and making it look easy in the process.

He was described as a cross between Jim Brown and Gale Sayers.

I guess he was one of those whose motto was, "Its better to burn out than fade away."  Good looking guy.  What a shame.

OK, now I'll give you your props.

In light of my underrated six, I'll give you a FIVE on the cleverness index...

...only because of the evil symmetry you displayed. 

I posted an infamous midwestern criminal, John Dillinger. 

And then you responded by posting a bigger and more infamous midwestern criminal.

Symmetry.

I knew this would come up eventually.  Rightfully so.  Let the record show that I am forever grateful to the state of Indiana for one Larry Legend, who gave this Boston boy many a sportsgasm.
