First Kill of the year


So before hunting season started Justin and I agreed to not clean shave our face until we had our first bow kill of the season. I was so pumped about bow hunting again this year. I just knew that I was going to kill a deer (head of lettuce) on the first weekend that I hunted. So October 1st was the first day of bow season. I finally got my harvest on November 14th. I had to keep the beard a lot longer than I wanted to, but it was worth it. I am so hooked on bow hunting. That was my third kill with my bow since last season.

I would like to thank Wildlife Energy Drink for giving me the stamina to stay energized for the morning hunt.

Juliette and I


This is going to be Juliette's favorite picture of her and I. Most likely one of those pictures that she always carries around to brag about her dad.

College Football Bowl Predictions


I just don't understand the way the BCS and AP think. I will be the first to admit that when LSU first started off the season I thought that they were going to go 7-5 again this season. But obviously they are getting better and better as the season goes. They have two loses that come from playing against #1 and #2 in the nation. That's not too bad. I hope that they can win out the rest of the season and see what happens there. But here is what really bothers me. And I would love for someone to explain it. How does USC land a spot in the BCS bowl against Boise State? (prediction) USC lost twice...one of the teams we beat before they played them. Washington was an unranked team when they played USC. Really, its so frustrating to think that USC is constantly in the higher rankings even when they cant prove themselves against weaker teams. I would love for USC to be ranked #1 in the nation just so I know that they would go play either Alabama or Florida in the championship game. I am sure that everyone in the SEC is so sick of hearing about USC and their "bought" rankings that if there were a match up between the two FL or BAMA would make it a point to shut out USC and make them feel pain.

USC is not a great football team. Why does the BCS and AP polls think differently?
