Times Are Changing...
Reliable sources confirm that future Hall of Fame quarterback, Tom Brady, is unhappy and demanding a new restructured contract prior to playing this season. It has also been widely reported that another future Hall of Fame quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, is extremely emotional about his team’s lack of communication concerning several recent changes.

My commodity broker commented to me the other day that feed lot operations and grain farmers seem to hit a home run every 10 years or so. Dairymen as a whole don’t hit home runs. They cycle through explosive market forces and round the bases from time to time, but the home run eludes them.
