Super Bowl or BUST! Well, Perhaps Both?

One more week of preseason games, and then .. the regular season is back!

Sorry for that pregnant pause! Heh.

I found the image and thought .. hmmm, these two ladies (who I assume are part of the NFL Gameday morning show) .. looked great wearing leather, even though the game used to involve a pigskin. With the regular season now about 2+ weeks away (Sept 4, Dallas Cowboys vs Philadelphia Eagles) I knew I should make a caption that commemorates the upcoming season, even though the Patriots will still be more meh than good this year (2026 is our year back to national prominence!) and this picture was a good way to do it.

The whole premise was an excuse to reference a really old joke, by a standup I wish I could remember who told it, in reference to how birth control would be really easy to get and cost nothing .. if men could get pregnant. The punch line was, "Brady's knocked up .. again?" of course to mean, Brady Quinn. No duh, it was in reference to Tom Brady, who at the time I think only had 1 child. Now he's up to 3 official offspring.

Since now that Brady is older than dirt as far as the NFL is concerned, and I still wanted to use QB's with short masculine names and the letter B as the first letter, and these two fit the bill. And both of their teams should be in the playoffs this year.

Just throw in a few football / sex innuendos (in-your-end-ooohs!) and I've got a caption! I didn't use "went deep" or "penetrated the secondary" or "hit the hole hard in a two gap" as perhaps I'll save them for another caption, especially if the Pats can make the playoffs!

  1. it's getting there.. but my special football friend was a Pats fan... and... well, will miss her dearly this season.

    MNF has not been as special since 2001, but now Sunday too...

    and maybe I should be worried, because what I was really noticing were the buckles and straps on that blonde's skirts... really nice accents

    1. Awww on missing your special football friend. Due to Roger Goodell persecuting Tom Brady the way he did, I tend to only watch Patriots games now, so I don't usually watch Sunday or Monday night games .. and Thursday night football games suck due to the lack of preparation time for the teams.

      I also gave up fantasy football about 10 years ago as I was spending too much time dwelling on it, and there were much better things for me to focus on other than that.

  2. Love the leather skirts. I am not a footballer so unfortunately don't get the references. But of course still loved the caption.... Dee's word magic.

    1. Glad you enjoyed. I think I wrote it well enough that even if you didn't get the specific NFL references, you could still understand it as a TG caption.

      Thanks!
