Good morning everyone, James here with your Nuggets for the day. Apologies that I didn't get the links up yesterday, I've got really no excuse for not doing so--the best I got is that I didn't feel well and simply passed out pretty early. Either way I'm back now (but not tomorrow, hopefully Fooch has that covered because I'm out of town tonight) and I've got some links for you. There's not much "news" per se but there's a lot of looking ahead and looking back. I'm really, really anticipating the Vikings game. I wouldn't call myself optimistic but I'm not pessimistic--I have no idea how it will go, but I have a couple ways I HOPE it goes. Still, I wish it'd just be Sunday already so I can either breathe a sigh of relief or grace you fine folks with heavy usage of the phrase "site decorum" come Monday. Here's ya links.
