Someone needs to tell Volvo to get a new advertising agency. The company is running an ad so much louder in volume than everything else that you have to turn down the volume on your monitor. This was supposed to have been prohibited by a congressional act six years ago, yet the practice continues unabated.
Volvo also needs to get a new commercial. The one that is loud enough to wake the dead portrays a young woman driving her car and texting. What the heck? Most states in the US have already banned this practice. And then it goes on to portray the car slowing itself to keep from running over a small child who appears to be walking from school. What kind of message are you sending Volvo? Is the message people who want to drive these supposed luxury cars can do as they please without consequence for their actions? Whoever wrote this spot and whoever approved it for Volvo should be fired and then get the crap kicked out of them. Volvo wake up!

Congrats to 'Bama
Congratulations to the University
of Alabama football program and its winning the national college
football championship last night.
To be honest I was cheering for the Georgia Bulldogs because they're from the same division of the Southeast Conference as my beloved Missouri Tigers. I was pleased to see the Bulldogs jump on 'Bama 13-0 at the half, but as we all know they don't pay off on the halftime score. You know the rest, the Crimson Tide rebounded and came out in the second half much different than in the first half winning the game in overtime 26-23.
Give 'Bama Head Coach Nick Saban credit as he replaced starter Jalen Hurts with true freshman Tua Tagovailoa. Tagovailoa gave the Alabama offense a badly needed spark and was able to move the offense when Hurts couldn't. The Tide outscored Georgia 20-6 in the second half and could have won in regulation had it not missed a FG as time was running down. And it was Tagovailoa who threw the game winning 41 yard touchdown to DeVonta Smith in overtime after Georgia had taken a 23-20 lead on its OT possession.

Georgia
played well but not quite enough defense to be national champions.
Congratulations to Saban on his sixth national championship and fifth at
Alabama.
