He will only get that if the goal is set to "declare bankruptcy"

Never mind, I thought it was the Seahawks with the Uniforms rather than the Charger. As I said, I just turned it on.

Was out at my daughter's basketball practice and just turned on TNF and caught the 3rd TD.

Is this a Sam Darnold revenge tour game ?

A reanimated creature called, let's pick a name, say Bruce, finds he cannot cope with the classic "Putting on the Ritz" so tries his hand at more modern rock numbers.

It practically writes itself.

I actually had to replace a fuse in one of our Halloween decorations today, fuses come in a set of 10.

If they keep failing at the same rate, we should be set for the next 150 years or so.

Quick, someone raise the point that Yorkshire puddings weren't invented in Yorkshire....

To commute or pardon one member of congress maybe regarded as unfortunate. To commute or pardon two looks like carelessness.

Kicker was after doing a bit of research I got a reel suggested which had him in one of those top 20 plays of all time.

A superb reaction catch on the mound. Probably the highlight of his career.

Now his MLB career never really got going, 3-4 record, just over 100 IP with an ERA of 3.31. But is both cool and a good motivation for the kids that an actual MLB pitcher threw on these very fields.

The "second field" park of our local rec baseball has the all stars plaque honoring the 1996 8U World series champions with a note about one of the players Chad Jenkins, who played for the High school (Cherokee), local uni (Kennesaw State).

Then was the first round pick of the Blue Jays in 2009

I'm not even saying there needs to be a salary cap, but there needs to be a limit on "future money" (beyond say 5 years) unless the cash for the ENTIRE CONTRACT is put in escrow the moment the contract is signed.

To be fair, MY parents aren't having any more children.

I mean it would take a necromancer's help, but still.

I can't imagine why a bunch of alcohol fueled college kids would not want to fly to one of the most expensive and dry cities on the planet to support their team.

Kayak carriers removed from the roof as the river levels are so low locally.
