Alright, so you wanna know about this David Covinella fella and his football, huh? Let me tell ya what I know, the way I know how to tell it. No fancy words, just plain talk. David Covinella, that young whippersnapper, he’s playin’ some football, I hear. Folks are sayin’ he’s got somethin’ special. He’s quick, like a rabbit in the cornfield. And shifty, too. Can’t hardly lay a hand on him, like tryin’ to catch smoke. They say he’s got somethin’ called ‘agility’, sounds like he’s real bendy and twisty…

Alright, so you wanna know about this Pilar Sanders, huh? And how much money she’s got? Well, lemme tell ya, I heard she’s got a whole bunch of it. They say she’s worth somethin’ like $5 million. That’s a lot of dough, ain’t it? I can’t even imagine havin’ that much money. Why, with that kinda cash, you could buy a whole lotta chickens! Now, how’d she get all that money? Well, from what I hear, she’s been a model, and an actress too. She was even on some TV…

Alright, so you wanna know about this Presbyterian men’s basketball, huh? Well, lemme tell ya, it ain’t nothin’ fancy like them NBA fellas, but these boys, they got heart, ya know? They play hard, even if they don’t always win. It’s like watchin’ your grandkids playin’ out in the yard – kinda clumsy sometimes, but you still cheer ‘em on. Presbyterian Blue Hose, that’s what they call ‘em. Sounds a bit funny, don’t it? Blue Hose. I reckon it’s got somethin’ to do with them old-timey socks, the kind my…

[Body] Alright, let’s talk about this here… uh… NikeLab basketball destroyer skirt thingy. Sounds fancy, don’t it? Like somethin’ them city gals would wear. But lookin’ at it, it ain’t so different from what I used to make outta old feed sacks, only this one’s got a swoosh on it. First off, they call it a “destroyer” skirt. Now, I ain’t never seen a skirt destroy nothin’, ‘cept maybe a man’s concentration if it’s short enough. But this one, it looks sturdy enough, like it could take a beatin’. Probably…

Alright, so you wanna know about this “MG Golf,” huh? Well, lemme tell ya what I know. I ain’t no fancy golfer or nothin’, but I’ve seen a thing or two. First off, this MG thing, it stands for “Master Golf,” or so they say. Been around since the 70s, makin’ gloves and such. Gloves, you know, for your hands when you’re holdin’ that stick and whacking that little white ball. Them gloves, they ain’t the fanciest, mind you, but they get the job done. Like a good pair of…

Well, howdy there, y’all! Let’s talk about them BCA football jerseys, shall we? You know, the ones with all that pink stuff on ’em. I ain’t no expert, mind you, but I see ’em around and figured I’d tell ya what I know. First off, BCA, that stands for Breast Cancer Awareness, y’see? It’s a big deal, this here breast cancer. Lots of folks gettin’ it, and these jerseys, well, they help folks remember to go get checked and maybe give a little money to help them doctors find a…

Alright, let me tell ya ’bout them tennis courts down at Washington Park, wherever that is. I ain’t never played no tennis myself, but I seen folks hittin’ them fuzzy yeller balls back and forth. Looks like fun, I guess, if you’re into that kinda thing. Now, from what I hear, this Washington Park, it’s got a bunch of tennis courts. Some say eight, some say more, hard to keep track. They got lights too, so you can play even when it gets dark. That’s good, I reckon, ’cause some…
