The Knight on e5 covering f7 suggests itself.
A quick check to make sure there was no slick move Black could throw in.

This leads to a humerous position.

Seeing a statement like this from someone who has a Bible verse listed right below his handle is interesting.
If RB had written that verse, it would be, "say Hi to your wives for me."
Yeah, yeah, I know. "Take it to Spirituality, Spanky." 😞
