Bill Belichick thinks 48-14 is unacceptable. Lucky for him the teams didn’t score one more touchdown each because 55-21 would be a healthy adult relationship.

Post-WWI, the wheel on the stamp became a clock face. The Komotau factory was built in 1890, so it isn't older than that. It's likely from closer to 1910, but serial numbers are no help for Kienzels, so some things will remain a mystery.

That logo is a stylized wheel and wings of mercury. This clock was made at their secondary factory of Komotau, in Bohemia. We know this because Komotau moved the non-stylzed Mercury and the wheel to the pendulum, which this clock has. Pretty awesome.

About to start repairing a real old wall clock. How old? Well, according to the stamp on the back, it's a Kienzel from between 1890-1910. It is not rare, they were the most prolific clock makers in Germany. Post-1910 clocks have KIENZEL as part of this stamped logo. But wait, there's more

I don't want him carrying 30 times a game like Jeanty, but I bet Gaines could handle more than 3 carries a quarter. He felt much closer to hitting a home run than Sherrod did. Sherrod to me came off as a third down back confused about participating in these weird mythical first and second downs.
