October 18, 2022  |  

Not much to see here. The panel got WHALLOPED! Upper Dauphin stumped them all as did Bangor with their big win. So did Port Allegany when they took down Redbank. Nazareth wasn’t kind to the panel either.  Protime holds a slim 3 guess lead over Polka Al, the corporate exec slips from second with a […]

Protime Predictions Week 8, 2022

October 13, 2022  |  

When Protime first heard the words gym rat he thought, ‘I better find somewhere else to go.  I don’t want no rat nibbling on my feet whilst I’m in the middle of bench pressing 300 pounds.  I certainly don’t need to have some rodent hop into my gym bag unnoticed and stowaway to my house […]

The Coporate exec is slipping and forgot to post the Protime Panel Results from Oct 30/Sep 1…Better late than never I guess!

October 4, 2022  |  

Yep…it’s my fault.  Was late with my picks and late posting the results…but…here they are. And yes, the Master is pulling away! I did manage to tie him this week.  NEPA and Mason had strong showings as did Polko Al, the rookie BillNJen and FoD.  But the hammer even though she didn’t have a stellar […]

September 29, 2022  |  

Not long ago Protime was asked to be part of a radio team that was going to broadcast area football games.  Suddenly memories of speaking in public that had haunted Protime for years came back into the picture.  Granted, describing a football game on the radio to thousands of people is vastly different than speaking […]

A few years ago, Protime and brothers Protime went on a trip down south and stopped at a convenience store for some R and R.  On the magazine rack was a sports magazine.  Inside the magazine was a page with one of those scratch and sniff colognes for men.  Protime liked the fragrance and thinking […]

Protime Predictions

September 1, 2022  |  

Protime is not really technologically savvy.  This past week when the powers to be at PFN called for a zoom meeting, Protime had no idea what they were talking about.  When Protime was a little Protimer, he played with model planes and hot wheels cars.  The noise they made was ‘zoom’, but he was pretty […]

Protime Predictions

August 25, 2022  |  

Well, Protime finds it hard to believe another high school football season is upon us.  Since he retired a year ago Mrs. Protime has kept him busy with the ole ‘Honey Do’ list.  So, he has to juggle his time so to speak.  In fact, Protime took up juggling this year as a hobby.  He […]

Protime Predictions Week 12, 2021

November 18, 2021  |  

Back in the day when Protime was a long-distance runner and ran virtually every day, he seldom cancelled a scheduled run even if the weather was bad.  Protime was like the postman, he ran in rain, snow, sleet, and hail.  Protime even ran in heat, cold, and wind.  A couple of times he ran (not […]

This past Saturday Protime’s Sunday School class had a coffee and doughnut social event where everyone could turn out and chat about anything that came to mind.  Well, the subject quickly turned to creatures that people had dealt with in their homes over the years such as rodents and snakes. This did not sit well […]

The other day Protime’s trusty ole jalopy died in the middle of a busy intersection.  The truck driver behind him couldn’t make the turn because Protime was blocking the way.  After honking at Protime the truck driver got out and started walking briskly toward Protime.  The guy reminded Protime of bad, bad Leroy Brown.  As […]
