Today we play a little game called OVER/UNDER …

It’s real simple I’ll put out a number to a corresponding stat or situation and then give my take: Over or Under. You may do the same by commenting or tell me what an idiot I am or simply find another site to read. But the fact is I haven’t had FUN on a job in nearly three years so now I’m going to.
