Referees vs. Teams: My Rant on the Alabama/Georgia Game

Sunday Sumptin’

Rant, Ramble & Rave

Good Sunday morning my fellow bloggers. I wish you peace before I take off on my Rant this morning. Here we go…

RANT

Where in the Hell were the referees last night at the end of the Alabama/Georgia game? I damn sure know there heads weren’t on the play. Maybe they were thinking of the nice bonus they received for throwing yet another game this year. That’s right, not only did they rip us off it has happened to other teams too ie, Michigan’s first game was handed to them in a similar manner.

This was the game I thought it would be, close with both teams beating each other up while showing the talent they both have. I expected it to be close and wasn’t disappointed in either team until the last 1:49 minutes of the game. That’s when the paid off refs refused to throw a flag for pass interference when it was clear to everyone watching the play and one of our players threw a punch in frustration, I think he should be suspended or released for his play and lack of professionalism. Could we have won? who knows but I do know we had a damn good chance taken away from us. {End of Rant}

A woman in a Georgia football jersey passionately cheers while pointing at a screen, expressing excitement during a game. Next to her, a man in an Alabama jersey looks dejected, resting his head on his hand. In the background, a TV shows a collegiate football game with score details, and a 'A house divided' banner hangs on the wall.

As hard as Bubba tried to please Karen, his girlfriend, his feelings always went from upbeat to tenebrific in a heartbeat. Karen was known for the ability to wreck havoc on anyone’s nerves in the blink of an eye. Their unlikely relationship amazed all of their friends as each weekend it was the same thing. Karen would grind Bubba’s spirits into the ground during the SEC games and then show her sanative and lift him back up with her love for him. This is how it goes when you live in a house divided.

Rave

Last but far from least is the rave. I purchased a book about a month ago and am now starting to read it. https://midwestmary.com/ “The Rosary Prayer by Prayer.

A close-up of the book 'The Rosary Prayer by Prayer' by Mary K. Doyle, featuring a wooden rosary with a crucifix and a cup of coffee beside it.

After my mom died in 2016 I was lucky enough to have gotten her rosary. I have a deep belief in our Lord and was raised on the Catholic faith until I turned my back and walked away as a teenager. Now here I am in my late sixties and walking in faith once again. I wanted this book and although I haven’t read through it yet {just unwrapped it today} I have skimmed it. I am looking forward to having this book help me learn the prayers for the rosary and maybe help build my faith even more.

Mary is a highly talented author who has dealt with the trauma and frustrations of Alzheimer’s along with having a Masters in Pastoral Theology. She enlightens us by providing guidance on a personal level. What I have read so far is encouraging me to use this book daily, thank you Mary for being a fellow blogging friend, your continuing inspiration and this fantastic guide.
