Falcons or patriots ?
Every year I bet
with a friend,
You know what ?
the winner gets a book,
a prize of high value,
and a penning of friendship.
More value for the game.

What can be found inside a book last much longer than the Falcons-Patriots game, my friend. This kind of bet it a good one.

thanks Jerry, i think sport and books offer constructive alternatives for feeling good,
in fact there is no competition between them,
as you write a book last forever, not a football game

have a good day

For the more astute fan, a book on football itself is the best yann!
