Matt Nagy is the head coach of the (sad-sack) Chicago Bears 'football team.'

'Twas detected in Matt Nagy
   a spine that is saggy

Instead of 'steadfast resolve'
   x-ray showed 'instant dissolve'

I am trying to figure out what "instant dissolve" means; I fear I do not know this much about sports.

Nagy is lucky he still has a job this morning, the way some of his players performed last night. One L.A. receiver caught the ball, fell on the ground right next to two Bears. Nobody touched him while he was down, so the receiver calmly got up and ran 20 more yards straight into the end zone for a TD. Can you believe it? In the NFL? If I were the GM, my coach is gone the next morning. There needs to be some accountability, don't you think?! Anyway, whatever. :) gw

Ooohoo! Nothin' says lovin' like somethin' from the oven. Send them a cake to let them know someone still loves them and give them a positive boost. Who knows they might win one. Good stuff Gershon. God Bless, JB

Good idea, Judy! Cake will replace 'guts,' 'mettle,' 'character,' and all that there internal 'stuff' these rough-tough footballers are supposed to have! lol. ~ Marie Antoinettee
