Random moments from a unique Ash Wednesday/Valentine’s Day
Great story about Cairo Santos!
Cairo Santos looked to be on his way to a lengthy career with the Chiefs up until 2017. It appeared the NFL had moved on until the Bears gave him a second chance
Congrats, Jo Koy!!
He wasn’t happy about this one being taken. Oh well, Happy National Son’s Day!!
That look on Kelce’s face tho.

TheRJDS Pics of the Day 09/22/2023: After my best showing in the Saturday NTT game in months (a very Rare win, I came in 2nd twice earlier in 2023), I had to join my friends as the Driver Nation Lager Party in St. Charles, IL was winding down, hosted by and held at , then wound up staying longer than expected. It really was so good to see the friends featured here, and several others I didn’t get pics of. Just good to finally get out for a few hours & be in my element…
And the NFL Season has begun!
FINAL: The Lions open the 2023 season with a win.
I show up for my interview with Bob Barker at the Waldorf-Astoria bar in New York and challenge the host of TV's highest-rated game show to guess the “actual retail price” of six household items I pull out of a shopping bag. He misses every single one by a mile, pleading: “I haven’t been to a market for at least five years, you see. So I was giving you prices from years ago.” But he takes it all in such good humor that we stay in touch for years after that. Rest in peace to one of daytime’s greatest stars. (Chicago Sun-Times, August 6, 1985.)
TheRJDS IG Pics of the Night 08/17/2023: “My Generation” and several other fans of had a “Bargain” of an evening listening to Live The Who, as they covered very faithfully the music of The Who from their 1964-1975 era of music. So great to run into friends, and talk to my friends in the band, before, and after, the concert. Part of Rosemont’s annual Concert in the Park series, so glad to witness finally in-person in 2023. Though this might be my last hurrah of doing anything fun on a weeknight for the rest of 2023. But, you never know…
“Katie Cole” & I are Rockin’ in the Park for Live The Who (an Awesome tribute band)!
Fans from Hong Kong and around the world gathered at the feet of a Bruce Lee statue on Thursday to pay tribute to the late kung fu legend on the 50th anniversary of his untimely death.
Great news for the Chicago Bears & the NFL. Hoping both get in!
The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced its 2024 senior, coach/contributor semifinalists on Wednesday, which included 1985 Super Bowl champion Steve McMichael and Bears owner Virginia Halas McCaskey.
Way to go Debbie Gibson and all on TeamDeb!!
'80s icon (and more!) took the Miller Lite Stage this afternoon.

At least 20 people were shot, one fatally, in south suburban Willowbrook early Sunday morning, fire officials said.

Brilliant songwriter penned classics like “If You Could Read My Mind,” “Early Morning Rain” and “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald”
Happy 4/1 day to my loyal followers here. No Foolin’, this link was sent to me , it aired on Inside Edition recently and have to share here:
Many are wondering: where is the "forgotten woman" from Donald Trump's hush money scandal?
TheRJDS Pics of the Day 03/25/2023: and what a day it was, meeting all the people featured here for the first-time ever in-person! The Autograph City Expo happened in NYC, it was impossible to see & meet all the wonderful people there, but forever grateful that it happened.
Congrats to the Kansas City Chiefs.

RIP to the Golden Jet
Blackhawks all-time leading goal scorer Bobby Hull has died at the age of 84, the team confirmed on Monday morning.
Rock in Peace, Lin
It is with a heavy heart that we must inform you that we all lost our best friend. Lin Brehmer fought cancer as long as he could. He passed early this morning, peacefully, with his wife and son by his side. Tomorrow at 10am, his XRT family will celebrate the incredible life of our best friend in the whole world. We'll hold each other up through this heart-breaking time. Lin would want that. Take nothing for granted. ~Terri Hemmert
