SUNDAY FUNNIES: OF HEARTS AND FOOTBALL

PIPER

 Hello Everybody! Today you have both Piper D. Katt AND Koda Canine because, thanks to the calendar, we have a double header of a SUNDAY FUNNIES for you.

First up, this coming Saturday is February 14, Saint Valentine's Day.💞

Now while meow purrsonally thinks EVERY day should be dedicated to thoughts of peace and love, especially given current events in some parts of the world, February 14 was chosen as a focal point for romance.

Probably so florists, chocolate providers and greeting card companies could keep track of their profit and loss statements easier.

In any event, while romance is a wonderful thing, especially if done right, here are a few romantic jokes to help get everyone in the mood for the upcoming weekend.

What did one volcano🌋 say to another?

I lava you.

Roses🌹🌹🌹 are red, chocolates🍫🍫 are nice.

I will get your gift tomorrow when it's half price.😼

You must be a 90 degree angle because you're always right for me.

The date on this milk carton is February 14.

How is it that my milk has a Valentine's date and I don't?

Meow's Valentine's day plan.

1) Breakfast in bed.

2) Chocolates.

3) Watch a romantic movie.

4) Dinner for two.

5) Regret eating two dinners.

But now, here's my co-host Koda Canine covering what's happening later this evening...

Thanks Piper.

Now I'll be the first dog to admit that I have never quite figured out this game called football.🏈

I understand the basic idea of competition where two teams play against each other to decide a winner and as the season gets closer to the end more teams bow out until there are only two left, but why football?

After all, this 🏈 does not look like a ball to me by any stretch of the imagination.

Balls are round, like theses: ⚽⚾🎱🏀

You can't sink your teeth into a football and it doesn't squeak either!

And everybody involved in this sport calls that brown thing a pigskin.

I've tried biting one before.

It does NOT taste like a pig or any pig related product.

But seriously, I love the fact that a lot of the football teams are named after animals, yet perhaps some of the other teams might seriously consider a name change.

Like: The Washington Native Americans instead of the Redskins. Although they did change their name to the Washington Commanders in 2022, despite the fact they are on the west coast and nowhere near Washington DC.

The New York Very Tall People instead of the Giants. I'm sure the players have heard that "How's the weather up there?" comment more times than they've ever wanted to.

Maybe the San Francisco Precious Metal Enthusiasts instead of the 49ers, because how many people outside of history buffs realize the name refers to the gold rush of 1849 at Sutter's Mill, California?

What do you folks think of the Kansas City Executives instead of the Chiefs?

Pittsburgh could be the Metal Workers, because who ever said they had to be limited to just Steelers? As much as they keep Charging in San Diego, I'm surprised that team hasn't run up a ton of debt by now. Maybe that's why they moved to Los Angeles in 2018?

And what do they keep Packing in Green Bay anyway?

But no football based Sunday Funnies would be complete without this classic from Andy Griffith via You Tube. The illustrations are from the Mad magazine adaptation by George Woodbridge.

And for legalities sake, we here at The Free Choice E-zine have no ownership of the above. We've only shared it in the spirit of comedy.

So to close out this longer than usual post...

"A heart is not judged by how much you love, but by how much you are loved by others."—from The Wizard of Oz.

And on that note♫, take care.

STAY SAFE!

Have a great week and please be back next weekend for more Sunday Funnies!—PDK and KC.
