This past weekend I was helping my son move into his new home in a Des Moines suburb. The moving
crew had just pulled up to his place and was starting to unload, when one of the movers, who had noticed
my son's Iowa State rock on his porch, looked over at his new neighbor and pointed at the neighbor's rock
on his porch and said to my son "Hey look at that!" Nebraska! I was standing a few feet away unloading
some stuff from my car, and yelled "Do they still play football in Nebraska?" One mover answered with a
big laugh "Not since they left the Big XII!" Lots of laughter around followed by "Boomer Sooner". I said,
"Did I hear Boomer Sooner?" as I unzipped my gray hoodie to show my Oklahoma Football sweat. Lots
more jokes followed...I hate two shades of orange...burnt and puke...yadda, yadda. The mover just came
up from Weatherford to be with some family....kinda neat to hear Boomer Sooner from someone who meant
it.....
