What a great game.
But heart breaking.
Now I’m in the uncomfortable position of rooting for Billisuck.

My #29 RE: Raisin theft This is the current update. The video was made last year before the Ninth Circuit ruled last May there were no takings invovled in federal government’s seizure of farmer’s private property. But the 9th Circuit’s ruling makes no sense in light of the text and history of the Takings Clause, which has long been understood… Read more »

No , I misspoke.
Except for jihadists, I’d root for anyone against Bill Billisucks.

I call my #2 Numbah 2. What is wrong with that? Numbah 1 is Numbah 1.
Just as long as you stop calling her #2… That’s just not right.
🙂
Ha’Sean “Ha Ha” Clinton-Dix is from Flowrita. Sorta splains dat
That’s what the radio announcers were talking about. They mentioned a Ha Ha interception and I didn’t think I heard it right. 😀
The Packers have a a player whose name is “Ha Ha Clinton Dix “,
Really.

I didn’t notice if it was so I guess it wasn’t. I have a radar for that stuff as well.
When Seattle starts using trick plays to score touchdowns….
Just in case you didn’t know, defense wins playoff games.
Whoodda thunk?
Packers 16-0 at the half?
yup
A little something I made up for the big game.

This has gone on through Democrat and Republican administrations since the Great Depression.
The federal government each year stealing as much 47% of a farmer’s crop with impunity. It’s like Castro’s Cuba.
Watch the whole thing. You just can’t believe something like this happens in America.
#26 – Is the fake Southern accent overbearing? I can’t watch that new NCIS with the Quantum Leap guy because of his fake New Orleans accent.
Finally, an issue that about 80% of the population can agree on:

I just didn’t realize it was this bad. We are doomed I tell you, doomed.
We went to see the Chris Kyle movie last night, it was fantastic. As the packed theater filed out at the end it was absolute total silence.
I won’t say more, you gotta go see it.

I get a chuckle out of all the various police agencies screaming like ….well…
Holders’s motivation is to gig the cops for which he’ll get a lot of support.
Another point that cannot be made too often.
