Cattle, Ag, and Sports

For those of you that don't know me well, let me explain my life in a nutshell.  I have many passions, but what mainly drives me are cattle, agriculture in general, and sports! I have been around Gelbvieh cattle since I was 9, and I wouldn't change it for the world. Agriculture is the driving force of the nation/world, so it's pretty obvious why I strive to learn everything there is to know about ag.  By the way, it's Kansas Ag Week, so be sure to thank a farmer today! =)

 I have grown up playing sports, not because my parents made me, but because I wanted to.  Being the tom-boy I am, I used to play football with the guys after we got out of elementary school, and a pick-up game of basketball wasn't too bad either.  Now, I'm not saying I know everything there is to know about sports, especially football, but I know a fair amount.  Well today in class, my professor mentioned being from Indiana and how he's been keeping up with the latest news of the football team there.  He sarcastically mentioned that Peyton hasn't done anything for the team, and that he should get booted.  The class, of course, giggled in unison, because basically everyone (or at least I thought so) knows about Peyton Manning being released from the Colts. He went on to say, "if you don't know Peyton Manning, then get out".  The girls in front of me seriously didn't know him! WHAT?!?!?! I still can't fully believe it, but I guess I have to get used to it...not everyone has their TV set to ESPN 24/7/365 like we do at our place. My only hope is that he goes to the Cowboys and replaces Romo?? I love him to death, but jeesh he just can't ever seem to get the job done.

For all of you that still don't know who I'm talking about, I've provided a picture and a link.



Here's a link to Manning's Release


Now, that I'm off my rant, I guess I better get busy. I've got to study for my Feeding test and Genetics test, right after we go to a celebration dinner for my roommate.  Sarah Jane is going to be in Texas for her Master's program!! Congrats SJ!!

Much love, mates.
