    My day was pretty good, thanks.

    And here's some helpful info I read in one of your posts: Again the more you talk the deeper the hole your digging is & the worse you look.

    Any haiku that ends in "Plowing Raiderettes" gets my vote.

    JDV: Hello Scott Pioli, this is John D. Villarreal, former almost walk-on for Cal. I'm ready to suit up this weekend, whatever.

    Pioli: John who?

    JDV: Why are you attacking my character? I'm all about integrity, whatever. You're just proving your ignorance, Pioli. I know REAL NFL players. I was around Tom Brady in the early years, whatever. Who do you think took the photo of him and Joe Montana when he was five? I'm an expert in photography, whatever.

    Pioli: Is this a joke?

    JDV: Nobody cares about jokes and drama, Pioli. Diablo Barbell, Tim B. and Chidi Ahanatu all know that I'm a five-time all-natural rock paper scissors champion, whatever. My video on YouTube won an Oscar.

    Pioli: What does that have to do with football?

    JDV: Ask "one of the best-known rugby players in Ohio" how tough I am. He broke his ribs laughing at my T-shirt, whatever.

    Pioli: Sir, I don't have time for this.

    JDV: That's why I'm calling. I know you and Belichick are busy preparing for the Chargers, whatever. And I'm not only going to play quarterback, I'm going to draw up the game plan. My IQ is 174, whatever. But coach has to wear a sweatshirt with my name on it. I don't really want my name out there, but it's useful information for the fans, whatever.

    This is the post which officially put this thread over the top.

    I know, you're all like, "This is the one? What about the other 118?"

    Nope. This is the one.

    My dog curled up by my feet as I wrote my column today.

    My teenagers each gave me hugs and told me they love me today.

    My hubby called me from work today to tell me he loves me.

    I'd say it simply doesn't get any better than that.

    Have we jumped the shark yet? No really, have we?
