Well from "eye candy" to one of my other all time favorites my wife's. NJ'S ROASTED CHICKEN with POTATOES, ONIONS & CARROTS umm-umm. We had it last Sunday also great on ● GAMEDAYS ● too ! Here's the very easy homemade recipe. You don't have to have an elaborate recipe to enjoy a good meal in fact tonight I had one of my all time favorites ROASTED CHICKEN with POTATOES, ONIONS and CARROTS ummm-ummm. ● Here's my wife's old family recipe for ROASTED CHICKEN. ● NJ'S ROASTED CHICKEN with VEGTABLES. [ADD extra vegetables if you like.] So easy we started with about a 4 to 7 (as desired) pound roasting chicken, salt the inside and thoroughly rinse and dry. Brush the outside of the chicken with a mixture of melted butter and olive oil. - Season the outside with salt, pepper and Hungarian paprika. - Top the chicken with a mixture of dried herbs - sage, lemon thyme and parsley. Then drizzle on a little more olive oil. ▪︎ NOTE: We grow and dry our own herbs which tend to be stronger than store bought. Just be careful with quantities. Roast in a preheated 350 degree oven per weight of your chicken, approximately 20 minutes per pound or until internal temperature is 165 degrees and juices run clear. While the chicken is cooking prepare and cook your potatoes, onions and carrots first cut them to desired sizes. Then season and cook until browned and fork tender. (see our Roasted Rosemary Vegetables recipe) When chicken is done let rest before carving and enjoy ! ● NJ'S ROASTED ROSEMARY VEGETABLES from an old family recipe

I like the wood scale .... and it's true. Like the bat scale from whiffle ball bat to the Louisville Slugger. You need to "fill those pants up" .... from Jim Tressel when he was at YSU. And when he got those pants filled up they won 4 of 6 NC tries. It does start up front.

I can't help feeling that the GUARDIANS let a close game get away. One freakin' run !

Unfortunitly he has a job ..... 🏈 coaching high school football. He's been gone too long, not available at any price. <--▪︎ just a picture of Mr Andrew Luck every year since 2019.

I think that Andrew Luck played it smart despite missing the entire 2017 season with an injury. I don't think he ever wanted to be carried off the field at 35 or 36 or whatever age. He had enough of his "successful" career with -4- playoff runs. And said "I'm retiring" time to play it back. From spotrac.

With so much NFL attention on quarterbacks at every level....but not Andrew Luck, why ? . Good 2 minute read. From Yahoo Sports, SATURDAY 4/13/24. Six years after his surprising retirement from the NFL, Andrew Luck returned to Indianapolis on Friday for the annual Chuckstrong Tailgate Gala. Luck was only 29 years old when he walked away from football. He'll turn 35 this September, an age at which several quarterbacks — including Matthew Stafford, Kirk Cousins, Russell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers — are still succeeding. Luck threw for 23,671 yards and 171 touchdowns during his six NFL seasons. (He missed the entire 2017 campaign due to a shoulder injury.) His 4,374 yards in 2012 set a record for passing yards by a rookie. And the Colts made the playoffs four times during his career However, when asked if has ever considered playing football since retiring, Luck said he's never looked back. “When I retired, that part of it was put to bed in my mind in a very simple, sort of direct way,” Luck told reporters, including the Indianapolis Star's Joel A. Erickson. “There were a lot of complications around it, you know, certainly tormented inside, as you guys saw that night, but I think that part of it has stayed.” Luck was known for his accuracy as a passer, so it shouldn't have been shocking to see the four-time Pro Bowler rise to the moment. Despite not wanting to return to the NFL, Luck realized he enjoyed football in his life. He's addressed that by coaching part-time at Palo Alto High School (which he calls "lower-case 'c' coaching"). "Football gave me a lot. A lot. Most importantly, again, the relationships and the experiences with people that I loved," Luck said. "I think part of me feels, and I don’t mean this in a cheesy way, but part of me feels like, you know, it’s my turn to give back to this game. "Part of me realized that at some point in my life I needed to reintegrate football," he added. "I love the game still." - EOM from Yahoo Sports.
