Welcome to the Boneyard with Steve Robertson. As always, I am your good friend and host Steve Robertson here on the Maroon Friday edition of the yard.

Hope things are well with you, wherever you are today. Hope it's a payday for you.

Absolutely hope it is a payday for you. You weekly and bi-weekly wage earners today should be a day that you're in money.

So congratulations. You made it. For those of you that's not maybe next Friday it is maroon

Friday for all of us which means that it is a day of celebration as we celebrate our commonality

the fact that we all cheer for the great maroon and white of mississippi state i consider these

things from time to time as i'm out

traveling and you know sometimes just lost and in reflective thought i begin to think about you know

what are the chances of all of us kind of getting together and agreeing on anything agreeing on a common

cause pretty slim it's one of the great things about

college sports fandom is it brings people from all walks of life together

unites him under one banner it's a really cool thing and it would be great if we could do

that in other parts of our life you know what I'm saying I'm not going to get all

caught up and get you know washed away in platitudes and all that sort of stuff

but the reality the fact is it's really cool that so many people from some diverse backgrounds

can come together and be Bulldogs and share for the great student athletes and coaches that

represent us on the field.

Speaking of which, like to congratulate our Mississippi State

soccer team with a draw in the Magnolia Cup yesterday. Big point for them.

Ole Miss has kind of had our number in soccer for a while and it's good to see us

pull even there. Had a chance to win the thing. Couldn't quite close it but good to

get a draw there and get a point that's big that's that's big
