This Week Last Year: Mount Washington, Football, and Dead Boxers

This week last year was predominantly about football. That’s the sort of thing that is usually on my mind at this time of year.

• I had a lot of fun climbing Mount Washington and doing a bit of camping.
• The Minnesota Vikings got a lot of mention after claiming that Mike Tice’s job is safe (and we all know how that turned out) and that they were going to build a new stadium.
• I also spoke about both of the Monday night football games that benefitted the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund, Giants “at” Saints and Washington vs Dallas. I only got to watch half of the latter game and the former game was a big joke.
• In non-football news, Craig Hansen got called up to the Red Sox and Leavander Johnson died less than a week after fighting Jesus Chavez.

I also wrote a short bit about gym etiquette that I really should revisit at some point in the near future.
