Fishing in February? You Bet!
Every Christmas for I don t know how long I go online and purchase new fishing licenses for my wife and myself for the next year. I always put the license in an envelope and put it into her Christmas stocking. This year I may use it earlier than usual.
Usually it s sometime in late April/early May when I get my first taste of fishing when crappie are starting to spawn and my wife and I head to Truman Lake. But this year I may hit the water with rod in hand in early February.
Iowa Nurses Get Super Bowl Tickets, Courtesy of the NFL
The National Football League announced last week that they were providing free tickets to Super Bowl LV for 7,500 vaccinated healthcare workers. It was the league s way of thanking some of America s frontline workers who ve been faced with the impossible job of assisting COVID-19 patients for the last year. While most of the workers will be from the area surrounding Tampa, where the game will be played, at least two of them will be from Iowa.
Samantha Jensen and her mom, Billie Kucharo, are both nurses that received free tickets for the game, thanks to the generosity of the NFL. They just had to be vaccinated for COVID-19 before attending. That was simple enough for Kucharo, who got her vaccine at work. Jensen had more difficulty, though, according to WHO-TV. After getting put on a waiting list, she finally got the call for an appointment to receive the vaccine.

In part two of connecting the Chicago Bears to this years Super Bowl, we make that Kansas City Chiefs connection. While Tom Brady did have the Chicago Bears on his short list, doubtful that would have ever happened. Tom is smart, Bear brass is dumb. How dumb you ask, let s connect the Chicago Bears to the Kansas City Chiefs.
SBNATION The Chicago Bears PASSED on Patrick Mahomes to pick, Mitch Trubisky. The Chicago Bears had their sites set on Mitch, they fell in love with him in the NFL draft and did everything they could to secure him. They traded up in the draft to take Mitch with the #2 pick overall..Patrick Mahomes went at #10. The Bears could have picked the best young qb in the entire NFL, but instead went with a dud that will be on a different team next year, most likely backing someone up.
The Buffalo Bills may have fallen just short of making it to the big game after a fantastic season, but four healthcare workers, after what has been an extremely trying season and even crazier year, will get a chance to relax and enjoy some time off. According to WIVB, four local healthcare workers were surprised by a Zoom call, from Buffalo Bills co-owner, Kim Pegula.
The ladies were informed virtually, that they will be traveling to Super Bowl 55 in Tampa Bay. It has been expressed by many people in the NFL how essential workers have been the backbone of America during this global crisis. I couldn t agree more with NFL owners inviting healthcare workers to see the Super Bowl for free.
