I have the exact pair. Hard to beat for the price. They actually fit my ears better than my air pod pros.

I still have my 1st gen Galaxy Buds, they don't hold a charge very long anymore, figured I'd upgrade to these before they do away with them. I like them so far.

I asked Chat GPT to write a poem for tomorrow's game. Gave it a few parameters. This is what it came up with.

Twas the Night Before the Playoff
(Another Tennessee Vols Anthem):
Twas the night before the game, and the field was all set,
The Buckeyes were nervous, their hearts filled with regret.
For tomorrow’s the day, the Vols will arise,
With Heupel at the helm, they’ll claim the prize.
The stadium’s buzzing, the air filled with frost,
But Tennessee’s ready, no matter the cost.
The Vols' defense, a hammer, relentless and bold,
Will crush Ohio States hopes and dreams in the cold.
Nico's arm, like a rocket, He do what He do,
Bang, from downtown! 75 yards to Bru.
Sampson on the ground and Nico through the air,
The Vols will strike fast, with no time to spare.
The Buckeyes will tremble, their knees start to quake,
As Vols fans get loud and the stadium shakes.
The hits would come hard, they’ll feel every blow,
As the Vols just smile, they ready to go.
Pearce off the edge, Boo through the gaps,
Blitz Blitz Blitz on every 3rd down snap.
With every tackle, and with every score,
Ohio State will wonder what they came here for.
The Buckeyes can try, but they’ll never be ready,
It don’t F'ing matter, VOLS BY FIDDY!!!!!

To get fired up for tonight's big game, yesterday, aka Friday, I drove 45 minutes south to West Palm Beach to support our Lady Volunteers as they played against the Richmond Spiders (Webb' Em!) in the West Palm Beach Classic.

If y'all allow me to be a bit sentimental and nostalgic, there was a huge similarity to yesterday's game and a few Lady Vol BBall games I attended in 1976-79. Some of you old folks may remember when the brand new Lady Vols (whose first year was 1974 playing in the women's intercollegiate league) played at Stokely to crowds of 300, 400 and perhaps 500 on a good night. I was one of 16 members of the Lambda Chi Alpha All Sing group (campus wide singing competition) and Pat Head put out a call to anyone who could help get fannies in the seats. We sang at a couple of half times and that was my first introduction to Pat (did you know that growing up in Clarksville, she went by Trish or Tricia?) and the Lady Vols. Needless to say, I was a huge Pat fan and followed the Lady Vols fervently during her entire tenure as HC. And back around 2011, I was at a UT Football game when Pat walked right in front of me just outside the stadium by the Vol Walk. I took her hand, got on one knee and thanked her for all she did for women's sports and for the University of Tennessee. I jokingly asked her to marry me, gave her a hug and went on my way.

Yesterday, there were 373 people at the West Palm Beach Classic tournament, and I sat directly behind the UT bench. Prior to game time, I had the immense pleasure of meeting and chatting with a young and spry Kim Caldwell - who carries some of the fire and intensity our beloved Pat Summit did. The Lady Vols played a tough Spiders squad but after halftime, pulled away for a convincing 92-67 WIN. They're now 10-0 and we all know that Pat is looking down and smiling!

I'm taking that mojo from the Lady Vols and directing it on our Vols tonight as they take on the Buckeyes. We can win this game and best of luck to coach Heupel, his staff and the players. Go Vols!

PS Now which one of us looks like we are due in 30 days??
