Hobie Hartkins Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 Has anybody seen the new football league? I have always thought, it feels kind of lonely and I always have withdrawal feelings when it's all over for the NFL. I think this may be good. There are 8 teams and for now. I think I'm going with the Houston Rough Necks! They don't have a name like that in any other sport, that I know of. It reminds me of when Cooter's buddy came to town and was framed for stealing that truck and Cooter had to help him out. Remember? They were laughing and talking about all the rough necking they used to do.....WHAT.... is a Rough Neck? I think it's a politically Correct term for RED neck! You guys ought to try these teams out. They're pretty good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobie Hartkins Posted February 8, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 OK...I've found a def. for roughneck- 1. a rough or uncouth person 2. An oil rig worker ( I never guessed this one!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDuke Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 I knew about the oil rig worker. I watched Dallas on a regular basis and read a book called Texas Rich based on the life of HL Hunt, the richest man in the world. In fact the TV show Dallas is loosely based on the Hunts......the World Champion Chiefs are their football team. I'm putting football behind me and won't be paying attention to the XFL. I'm too excited about NASCAR, baseball and retiring. Hobie Hartkins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobie Hartkins Posted February 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Who's your favorite NASCAR driver Roger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerDuke Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Chase Elliott because his dad raced on a Dukes episode....even though we never saw his face.....plus he's a Georgia boy. I have to admit I don't follow it as much as I'd like but retirement is coming soon so I'll have a lot more time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
