Or he was just losing his balance and so his glove hand didn't stay where he wanted it.

And normally steady Torkelson completely wiffs on a great play by javy. Cursed.

it would be harder for criminals to get as many guns if they couldn't steal so many from an over armed population.

FWIW, you're not likely to find a game where the announcers were so obviously having a good time with it.

LOL - the Navy just got done writing off the bad investment on the DDG1000's AGS (advanced gun system) with the 'cheap' bullets that ended up costing $1,000,000 a piece before the project was scrapped.

Is that like saying "The only area where the audience at Ford's theatre was deficient was John Wilkes Booth" ?

well, hasn't the logo lion been called 'Bubbles"? 🙄

A friend of mine is on the event staff (ushering/gates etc). Said his head was ringing afterward even after having used the management supplied earplugs and being mostly on the concourse. Deafness is going to be the big epidemic in the generations since the earbud and Class D audio amps.

Well, they were short one gate on the football schedule weren't they?

This deal is almost certainly DOA as soon as folks are outside DC and no longer stroking Trump's ego. It calls for Hamas to sign on to it's military demise, which they will give lip service to but never accede to except by force, and Netanyahu has already made clear that Israel is going to be supplying that force if they don't see Hamas dissolving to their liking. IOW, it doesn't change the status quo already on the ground. All these guys slapping themselves on the back is pretty much a Trump dog and pony show for a Nobel, but he'll get bored quickly with how much work getting any real change effected will be.

Yeah. Wallace seemed to be more a segregationist of convenience - from what I remember he became a fairly reasonable guy in later years once there was no political profit in the old racism. Trump is a racist to the core of his being and could never reform. He has no choice, it follows directly from his narcissism. If he's White, whites must be better, smarter etc. With Trump the further away from his identity you go, the less valuable a person must be, because only his attributes make a person valuable.

Remember the big overbuild in fiber optic backbone? I could see the same thing happening here. A ton of centers get build, a bunch of power capacity goes in with them, the centers find they have overshot their market - a lot of centers close and the left-over is a nice overhang in electrical generating capacity.

I think that was likely the key thing. Schott was a loose cannon AND she wasn't part of the old boy club either.

How much it was driven by that gets a lot of debate, but no question southern landowners knew all too well they needed armed 'militias' to deal with the potential threat of 'domestic unrest'

Other than Marge Schott anyway.

I think if you live a wild area, it's perfectly reasonable to be armed. I stayed with friend recently that has black bear and wolves moving on his driveway at night. And sure nature is just all cuddly all the time (not). I don't expect people to have to take their chances with a bear guarding cubs or a male alpha predator in a rutting craze. And I'd gladly see a lot more hunting of the XS deer population that prevents me from growing anything in a garden in my neighbor hood. So I'm not against guns for utilitarian purposes. But very few people have any legitimate need for a handgun, and no-one needs an assault weapon. If guns are to be present, every gun and every owner needs to be registered and the ballistics of every weapon need be filed before the weapon is sold and periodically re-verified.

Since at least on major reason for it's existence was to protect slavers from slaves, you wouldn't expect that set of motivations to produce a positive legacy.

and that's the other bait and switch we always get from guys like Kirk: "Responsible guns controls would be OK" but then every conceivable measure of any kind is reflexively opposed. So those are not honest positions, they are just rhetorical fig leaves.

Injuries can change things in a hurry, but a healthy Lions D won't be leaving the middle of the field open for Love.

LOL - Justice was served. Neither team deserved the win, and neither got it!

I think that missed stop was the game.

agree. Dallas has been moving in fits and starts - GB has had steadier momentum with the ball.

that was a pretty terrible sequence for Dallas.

Nutty game - Dallas scores their TD so fast they leave BG time to tie it up. GB pass rush less than impressive late.

so it is some kind of fast twitch/slow twitch thing where the super athletic guys don't have the fine motor, or maybe just that the only way guys without fine motor make the NBA is extreme levels of fast twitch? Chicken, meet egg. 🤔
