What to Watch

I completely understand if you don't like or enjoy sports. Maybe, however, you like films.

First tip of the day:
There are several documentary films coming up on ESPN that feature some outstanding directors/storytellers. Tonight's featured piece, "The Band That Wouldn't Die", is from Barry Levinson, the Oscar-award winning director. The film is, in part, about when the Baltimore Colts fled the city in the middle of the night and moved to Indianapolis. However, it's told through the team's beloved marching band, which refused to quit even when the team left.

Second tip:
Yes, the Indianapolis Colts once really were the Baltimore Colts.

The briquettes will be hot again tomorrow. More to come then.

Until then, enjoy!

KQ - this is a gem of a site - have already dropped a few well-timed comments at the water cooler before making a getaway ... my street-cred is increasing!
