Should We Expect More?
« on: October 31, 2023, 07:27:52 AM »
I listen to sports talk radio to unplug, maybe laugh, get some sports 'news' and generally to be entertained. Like most people I have learned to live with mixed metaphors and poor use of the English language. I think low expectations are the rule of thumb if you listen to sport radio.

But... this morning on NBC Sports Radio, Mike Florio in reference to a replay in the Lions v Raiders talked about how the NFL "opened a box full of Pandora" and went on to explained that the NFL " opened a box and there was Pandora all over the field".

Shouldn't someone in the communications industry have a pedestrian idea of the concept of Pandora's Box?

Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.

I think expecting anything out of Florio sets you up for disappointment.

That's what a smart person would do. I also put myself through the self inflicted pain of being a Bears, Bulls and Whit Sox fan. Picking MU over Purdue for college was my only smart decision.
