I love these posts of yours. Hell yes to ’72 (“I don't want my brother coming out of that toilet with just his dick in his hands”), ’73 (“Mook, what’s a mook?”), ’74 (“I WAS STEPPED OVER!”), ’78 (“…one shot.”), and ’79.

Haha, thanks. These posts are a great way for me to keep a record of my picks. Glad you approve of those choices.
