Bag of Randomness for Friday, December 8, 2017

  • I’m one of those who set their DVR to record the evening news every night, in particular, the CBS Evening News. However, since Jeff Glor took over as anchor it stopped recording and I had to set up a new season pass. I remember this happening when Charlie Gibson stepped down from ABC World News Tonight. It’s a minor thing, but I would think it’s something networks or cable companies would prevent from happening.
  • So far I’m not into Jeff Glor and as a result, I refer to him as Jeff Bore. I also don’t like their new format, every new story begins with a big red banner with white letters which makes you think it’s breaking news.
  • I sum up the past year as a lot of style and lack of substance.
  • It’s not apples to apples, but I bet Trump supporters are annoyed at Russia meddling news as much Hillary supporters were annoyed by her emails.
  • The kids’ school had a holiday program last night in which they sang songs, played instruments, and recited poems. Usually, those things can be a bit of a struggle to go to, but the school did a good job of making things flow.
  • Dallas Cowboys changing up uniform combination vs. Giants, will be a first in team history
    • For the first time in team history, the Dallas Cowboys will wear navy jerseys with white pants when they play the Giants at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. The Cowboys’ navy jerseys are normally worn with silver pants.
  • Three Dallas Cowboys players were baptized at the new practice facility
    • Three Cowboys players – safety Kavon Frazier, linebacker Anthony Hitchens, and linebacker Justin March-Lillard – were baptized at the Cowboys practice facility by the team’s chaplain, Jonathan Evans, who posted the video to his Facebook page. As of Thursday afternoon, the two-minute clip had been viewed more than two million times.

    • I feel like this would be something Michael Scott from ‘The Office’ would do if he were in Congress.
  • One of my college friends is a pastor and I emailed him about our friend and her cancer diagnosis. This was his entire response, “Thanks man. Bummer.”
  • I want the Vikings to win the Super Bowl.
  • Last night was the only regular-season game in which the Chick-fil-A at the new Atlanta Falcons stadium was open for business. All of their home games have been on Sunday.
