Legion! I haven't posted in here for days... literally! Hell of week at work and we're trying to pack up our house because we've gotta be out in two weeks. Add in to little kids and life is nuts.

Timex Tuesday and Speedy/Tool Watch compliance on Tuesday. In the Speedy pic I'm working from home and sporting a suit on the top and PJs on the bottom for a remote hearing. If one thing good came out of the quarantine it's remote hearings!

Vintage Wednesday compliance.

No pic yesterday.
Adult drink compliance today. 14 year Glenlivet Cognac Cask. Really like it, just a hint of sweet.

Bro, our home is all about fall! It's by far my favorite season of the year. We watched It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown last night. Watching Adams Family 2 now.

If we weren't moving my wife would have gourds, pumpkins, and Halloween **** everywhere.

Swanky Seiko Saturday with the SJE073. Commonly referred to as the "baby snowflake", but I disagree. The only things they have in common is a textured(different mind you) white dial and amazing case finishing. Different metals, movements, shape and size make them very different watches IMO. At least that's what I tell myself to justify having both. Anyways, included some side by sides to show the differences.

Your Snowflake makes me drool. Crazy how much thicker the GS is than the Pressage.

Crazy thing is the snowflake is only 12.5mm thick, but the SJE is an impressive 9.7mm yet they are both rated for 100m WR despite not having a screw down crown on the presage.

Still really wish the SJE was 36-38mm though. It's every bit a GS as a GS in my mind.

@Dub Rubb, what are thoughts on tomorrow's game? Do you care, want to kick Brady and Gronk's ass, or love them both because they gave you titles? When Bumgarner pitched against the Giant's the other night I was happy to watch and wanted him to do well but not win.

Want the pats to win this game, but it's very unlikely to happen. My wife randomly ran into MadBum when she was on a trip recently and lost her ****, so clearly she still loves him too!

I honestly want Brady to win like 3 more super bowls. Do I wish it was for the Pats? Of course. But want him to further separate his legacy and silence what remaining doubters there are. If the Pats aren't gonna go all the way, I am for sure gonna root from Brady and Gronk. I mean he brought 6 titles to a team that had none and was garbage my whole childhood. I can't be mad at the guy.

Funny that Tom Brady himself still considers Joe Montana to be the GOAT. Also, I don't necessarily disagree.

In all seriousness, Tom Brady is a freak. Just look at what the Buc's did compared to the Pat's last year. He's also from the Bay, so I like him. That said, I do wonder what Joe would have done in today's league.
