Goalposts

July 6th, 2005 at 2:33 pm by Preston Taylor Holmes


With Tennessee Titans tickets going on sale this weekend and the NFL preseason and college football right around the corner, I thought it might be fun to erect a good, quality set of goalposts in my front yard. No, I haven’t told Mrs. Holmes about this. She doesn’t need to know until the goalposts are erected and Preston Jr. is working on his field goal kicking. By then, even she will see the wisdom in the front-yard-goalposts.

Little did I know, however, that goalposts are freakin’ expensive.

I may have to find another way of demonstrating my enthusiasm for the upcoming season.

    Yeah, buy a jersey or something geez. And what’s with raising your boy to be a kicker? Is he some sort of sissy? Put his ass in the secondary man! If he can’t make it as a DB, then he can always be a fullback…

  2. Katie Says:

    You ought to get the kind that automatically lower, so that you don’t have to replace them everytime Preston Jr. gets rowdy and pulls them down.

    We have a big side yard. I’ve dreamed of painting yard lines on it for years.

    It’s better to not tell the Mrs. beforehand. Women get strange over things like this. I speak from vast experience of women kicking my ass for no apparent reason.

    Lewis – I totally dropped the ball on guest blogging over at your place last week. I owe you an apology! I was supposed to help out over at Vince Aut Morire as well and dropped the ball there too. Your brother did a fine job, however. Sorry about that! Then again, your regular readers may thank me for leaving them alone.

  8. Deliverance Says:

    How about you just drop them drawers, boy..just get em right on down..

    Seriously, it was no problem at all. As I said before I left you could post as much or as little as you like. I never expected anything one way or another so no problem. And you’re right, bro did a great job. Good to be back.
