House Speaker Mike Johnson is apparently tired, despite doing little this month during the government shutdown.

Johnson said at a press conference Tuesday that people have been telling him, “You look so tired on TV.”

“I am so tired, because we’re not sleeping a lot. We’re working overtime,” Johnson said, adding that House committees are still conferencing to put together legislation to be ready to go as soon as the House is back in session.

Thought and prayer, Mike. One of each.

      The musical notes should have tipped me off but I was trying to figure out who would have said this in the movie “The Replacements.”

      I was like, definitely not Keanu Reeves Character, my best guess was Michael Taliferro.

        Off topic, but that is one of my all time favorite, guilty pleasure movies. If I see it on, I will stop and watch it whether it’s in the first 15 minutes, the last 15, or anywhere in the middle. And its (very) loosely based on a true story - the Washington Reskins beating the Dallas Cowboys in the ‘87 strike season. Just like in the movie, all the Cowboys had crossed the picket lines and were playing, and Joe Gibbs beat them with a team of mostly “scabs”. When people say that coaching doesn’t matter, you can point to this one game.
