  1. Looks like J.J. Watt is out for the season with another back injury.  Apparently he reinjured his back during the Patriots game on Thursday night. Many Houston fans were concerned that he was coming back from surgery too soon. Guess they were right.

  2. I was so sad when I heard one of the twins talking about his 'graduation' from high school. He was really glad that he was done with schooling - now he could get on with his life of selling used cars. It's clear that the none of these kids ever even consider college as a next step in their education. I just don't get it. How brainwashed would you have to be to completely ignore the possibility of further education?

  3. So glad Kocian made the team.  She is glorious to watch on the Uneven Bars.

    As for Tim Daggett - I cringed every time he declared Biles the greatest gymnast of all time, with Nastia sitting right there. He could have at least acknowledged how great she had been back in the day.

  4. What an amazing performance by Querry!  

    In his after-match interview,  Djokovic was asked if he was 100% physically.  He indicated that he was not, but refused to elaborate.  He said that he would not be playing Davis Cup and hadn't decided about playing the Olympics.

    John McEnroe predicted that Djokovic won't play in the Olympics - that he needed some significant time away from tennis.  Nothing was said about the U.S. Open.

  5. I feel like there's not much excitement about Wimbledon this year - same old, same old - but I got a kick out of reading that a tennis coach ranked 770 in the world has qualified to play.  His first match opponent?   Roger Federer.

  6. I'm old enough to remember the attic fan that we had back in the days before air conditioning.  It was loud and creaky, but somehow it circulated enough air for us to survive the summers in Houston.

    I can't imagine life without AC now.

  7. Re: Aaron and The Amazing Race

    He raced with his girlfriend Hayden.  She was a whiner and a bitch, but they raced pretty well. He famously proposed to her on the show right after they were eliminated.   I have no idea if they are still married.

  8. Has there been an update on Milla?  Her episode ended with her about to undergo the gastric bypass, so we don't know how she did afterwards.

    Also - this is one of the only cases that I can remember when Dr. Now removed a lymphydema before the bypass.  Have there been others?

  9. OMG Erin is from one of the Baking Championship Shows!! I HATED HER!! She thinks she is so cute. Ugh ugh ugh!

    I will root for Rob since he's from Staten Island..Representing!

    I may just skip this season if Erin is on. I couldn't stand her on the Baking Championship show, and then she won. Yuck. She's really hard for me to watch.

  10. I confess to missing the April Fool's Day homage completely. I was only half watching - mainly listening - so I didn't see all of the gags. I did look up just at the point Ken Jennings was answering 'turquoise' and I was completely baffled. I rewound that section several times, just to be sure my eyes weren't deceiving me, and still April Fools never occurred to me. I only figured it out after reading here.

    I also guessed Singapore.

  11. The bride in alterations - maybe it's just me, but I thought her dress didn't fit her in the bust area at all. When she tried it on in the store, I figured that they would make final alterations to make it fit better. But at her wedding, it still looked 'gappy' to me.

    Amy Purdy's dress was gorgeous - one of the prettiest we've seen lately.

  12. I didn't make it to the actual instillation of the lights...please tell me, did anyone have the presence of mind to cover the bed from the falling plaster and insulation? Or did it all just float gently to the bed where it could mingle with the heaping piles of sheets and clothing and dust and hair?

    Yes - they did figure out that they needed to cover the bed before thay cut into the sheetrock.

    That was possibly the most boring hour of television I have ever sat through.
