The List for Wednesday, September 15th 2021

Welcome to The List,

The Grand Ole Opry, it’s were every Country star hopes one day to perform…for Elvie Shane the FIRST time he got to get on stage there what was the FIRST thing he noticed…”I got up there and seen the circle, and I looked down at the wood.  You can see how the woods got’n concave, scuffed up and scared.  You know the only way the floor got that way,  was from 95 years with boots on it”  A few years ago, I got to tour the Grand Ole Opry..got to stand on that circle…if you ever go to Nashville this is a MUST stop for any country music fan…

Super Bowl 56 may still be several months away, but the calls to name Carrie Underwood as the 2022 Super Bowl halftime show performer are growing. Underwood on Sunday debuted the newest rendition of the Sunday Night Football theme song, “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night,”, and her stunning performance is a clear sign for fans that she should take the halftime show stage. She is in her 9th year with Sunday Night Football…

And speaking of football…could Aaron Rodgers be mulling over that gig over at Jeopardy?? They ARE still looking for a full time host…and Aaron didn’t have a strong start to the 2021 season. In the Green Bay Packers’ loss to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, Rodgers completed just 15 of his 28 passes for 133 yards and two interceptions, It was one of the worst games of his career..so, the question is…I’ll take no longer MVP’s for 200 Aaron…..

Comedian Norm Macdonald has passed away yesterday from cancer.  He had been secretly battling it for the last decade, keeping it all very secret.  Norm Macdonald was 61 and will be missed…
