Can’t we claim 3-4 more if we wanted to be pathetic losers like aggy?

So, our back and side yards are well enclosed and we let our boys roam them mostly at will. Their murderous tendencies, if any, are thus restrained. Last night, I was trying to coax Wheezer to come in the house so we could go to bed. In the course of that "negotiation," I looked down to the far end of the side yard and saw something moving. Turned out to be an opossum that beat a hasty retreat under the fence. Wheezer ran toward it, but stopped about halfway. And at that point, Wheezer did not want to come in, so I let him play for a bit. After about 15 minutes, I went back out and Wheezer was acting like he had caught something, usually a bug, that he had pinned with his paws and he was looking down at it. As I got closer, I saw some dark fur, and I was like oh shit and it was a fairly big patch of fur so I thought it was a pretty hefty rat. Then I saw the tail and realized it was a young opossum that seemed to be, well, playing possum. I didn't see any injuries or blood so I distracted Wheezer and was kind of chasing him a few steps here and there and I looked back and the young opossum had stood up and I guess was preparing to flee. I managed to herd Wheezer into the house and hopefully saved the young marsupial. It seems that playing possum was the perfect move because Wheezer is young enough that hunting and playing are the same thing (as if they ever really grow out of it) and by not reacting to his actions, Wheeze was just kind of looking at it instead of swatting and biting. Seems maybe the first opossum I saw might have been Mama chasing after a youngun that Wheezer subsequently found.

Dude. That pretty much flies in the face of.....everything about America these days. Commie. -
You don't even need this qualifier. Texas' 1970 Coaches' Poll title is valid. That's all that needs to be said. The Coaches' Poll and the AP Poll titles are valid, and have always been valid, regardless of their timing.

Because when you look in the various statutes and civil codes and codes of civil procedure in any state, none of them say “please disregard this mandate if the families want to do something different”. The purpose of a criminal justice system is to use scarce resources to obtain the best, quickest, most cost effective means to find and punish criminals. That’s it. And then there’s the fact that families reacting in a situation like this are at their most emotional and least rational and intelligent state. It’s generally best not to hand over the driving wheel to the most emotional and unintelligent person in the car. -
Nixon handed DKR the 1969 trophy but your point is valid. 1970 title is way more valid than those aggy computer ones from a century ago that were "awarded" decades after the season.

Joe just keeps lighting explosives with progressively shorter fuses. It's as if he's obsessed with finding out where the absolute escapable limit is. At most, we have to be within a few millimeters of it today.

I have never had a speeding ticket. Just one of the benefits of driving an air-cooled 1975 VW beetle. The other being the chicks, of course. -

Oh, so y'all HAVE figured out the play. Yeah, this was 100% obvious the second that "getting her story" was mentioned. She will be asked to say "Trump was just another New Yorker who came to big social events. He had no idea that anything bad was happening, and he never had sex with any of Epstein's girls." She will say it. She will be pardoned. And...this is the important part...all of the "law and order" and "WE MUST PUNISH PEDOS!" MAGAts will suddenly be just fine with that outcome. Because...and this is also important....they are the most loathsome people presently walking this earth. -

During my time as an ATO at Florida, we went up to Tallahassee for a social with the Chi Omega sorority. The afternoon and evening before the social and the Bundy attack some of them, my fraternity brother and I with some the Chi Os at an apartment complex pool area. Needless to say, the social did not happen the following day. I was working at Florida’s Library West at the time, and for a while I had many sorority girls ask me to walk them home when the library closed because everyone was terrified of Bundy. I enthusiastically embraced that role of ‘you are safe with me’ guy. I’m not sure how I can explain that but…. -
This is interesting to me. I didn’t think it felt like a Superman movie at all. To me it was more Guardians or Fantastic Four in tone. I mean Lois Lane found Superman in a “pocket universe” in like five minutes. And Lex Luthor had an army of monkeys.
