Talking Super Bowl with my best buddy.

"Goddammit Joel! This is their year best buddy. We have to go to the parade. I'm ready." I have an on again, off again roommate, his name is Joel, who just so happens to be my first cousin and new best buddy - "I don't know why you keep saying that. There is a long way to go before the Super Bowl gets here. Tilt your head to the left." Not only is Joel my best buddy, he also doubles as my barber - "I tell you what best buddy. They are strong at the QB spot right now. Stronger than I can ever remember. And the players. Jesus, this is the best crop of players I have ever seen. And I have been watching Chief football for thirty plus years best buddy," my enthusiasm was at a fever pitch as I watch a clump of hair hit the floor.

Joel is going through some changes in life right now, but I got to admit to everyone. He's like the best looking guy in town and women line up around the block for him, but he is sick of that and wants something new. One more thing, I have never seen anyone put as much emphasis on diet as him. I lost ten pounds the first two weeks he lived with me, Unfortunately, I put it back on when he was in San Diego - "Best buddy, I heard they were forming legislation for online gaming in a number of states. 2018 will be a banner year for online gaming if all goes as I think it will." The two of us share a passion for sports entertainment, and quite frankly sports entertainment can be very profitable if done correctly - "I know dude, we've seen first hand how much money there is. It's just they're certain things I am focused on. I have to think about my health. Turn your head to the right." I comply and a few moments later another clump of beautiful hair is on my lap.

"Have you talked with uncle Ned lately?" Uncle Ned is on the Ferry side of the family. Currently, he is living in a care center in Kansas and is as feisty as ever. "Yeah, I talked with the bozo the other day," I then add, "He was bitching about Trump and this and that. But otherwise everything is the same with him. He's looking forward to seeing us someday." He finishes shaving the back of my neck and instructs me to take a look in the mirror - "Excellent best buddy. You can always add barber to your resume. I will vouch for you." I sweep the tide of locks from the patio floor and empty them in the trash. After finishing the talk returns to Chief's football.

"If they can avoid the injury bug I really like their chances. You also got to keep Alex playing at a tremendous level. If he goes down it would make things harder." I agree with Joel wholeheartedly, losing the QB1 spot would be tough, but from everything I'm seeing Mahome would be a suitable replacement - "The kid has a rocket launcher for an arm. And they're plenty of play makers to get the ball to. Look how well Deshaun Watson played. Mahome has that kind of ability, with a bigger arm." Joel has always been a Bear's fan, even though he grew up in the heart of Kansas City - "Ditka & Payton!" He tells me every time I question his loyalties.

KC opened up at -3 and have risen to -5 as of now. As well as they are playing and being at Arrrowhead. I'm laying my money on Andy and the crew. I know there are other people who like sports entertainment as much as me. I would like to know what you're thinking. Best buddy & me in picture below.
