Normally I do not chit-chat to you all about sports teams (unless I'm discussing my legendary Green Bay Packers), or any type of athletic events (contrary to world renowned G.B.P), and even specific entertainment purposes that pertain to masculine sweaty men (with the exception all players in Lambeau Field), because frankly I just prefer not to speak a peep about the subject. I consider myself to be a bubbly sports "Freak" presay, yet I simply decide to keep mum on the topic. Well that is until now!
Last evening The Missouri Tigers played #17 ranked Texas Longhorns, in basketball. Now the Tigers were predicted to fail miserably, I believe the phase was "There is no chance in the HE-double-hockey-sticks, that MIZZZOU could beat the almighty Longhorns". Well the critics reluctantly ate their words. Because we kicked booty! Go MIZZOU!
You see, the University of Missouri is HH's alma mater. He bleeds gold and black, a real die hard if you will. Whenever there is a MU game on, I can guarantee that every tractor at the farmstead (Actually I would be willing to bet the every tractor in Saline County) will be tuned onto the game.
Do you want to know a close personal secret? This information is only known within the farming "Cliques", and must never be discussed amongst the city folk. But the next time you are driving down a country road and see a tractor or combine coming towards you, be sure to quickly gaze into your rear view mirror. Because if you look closely, you could see a little orange and black Tiger Tail swaying in the wind. Yep that's right, every farmer in our county proudly flies the Tiger Tail from the rear of their tractors and combines. These farmers really do know how to represent! SHHHHH, You never heard it from me!
Sincerely,
Farming Fabulously
