Today was an America-centric day as the Yellow category started with me naming all the presidents. I mean, it was easy once you paired up Lincoln and Ford together. I had my next luck with the blue categories with car companies, as clubbing them was also easy enough. While I don’t have a lot of experience in the sporting world, I’ve seen The Blind Side enough times to know what Coach and Scout means. However, I followed the pattern of sadly losing to the purple as it happened again and I finally got my answer for Connections for November 12.
