In Texas, football is more than a game…
“I think parents are going to see they need to do more to help their kids get an edge.”
These parents are the worst. They ruin EVERYTHING! (What edge do you need at an Easter egg hunt?)
I don’t get the”slut shaming” charge. If you want to be a stripper, fine.
If you want to write for a very conservative, uptight paper — covering the very powerful, very conservative and straitlaced people the paper so desperately works to keep happy and unruffled — fine.
If you want to call Bob Knight — fine. If you want to make funny jokes about pics — fine. If thou carest to elucidate on the harsh conditions of the human spectrum — verily.

IMO, all that matters here is that an unarmed boy was shot directly in the chest by a grown man that was told by the police not to follow him. The character assassination of Martin or Martinez is going to be unnecessary and sad.

re: US soccer, admittingly I did not watch the olympic qualifiers os I can’t speack to tactics, selection. performance, or adjustments, but to miss 2 of the last 3 olympics coupled with the recent failures of the u17s and u20s is disheartening at best.
These are levels we have made great strides in over the past 20 years to the point of being competitive with traditional world powers at these levels (prior to the seperation that occurs when US players go to college and foreign players going pro).
Yes, we are producing more pros and more players for the European leagues at this time, but it is not translating to the field. Such is the fallout from not deviating from the Sampson-Arena-Bradley coaching tree for too long.
Hope Klinnsman is eventually able to affect these levels positively. If Sunil Gulati does not let Jeurgen oversee the youth teams he has got to be let go from US Soccer. Should of been let go after the Bradley hiring.
Glad there is UEFA Champion’s League today to cleanse the pallet….

I just wish the mainstream media would focus on how Trayvon Martin was a gang member and a career criminal instead of how that one poor victim (who’s a dirty Mexican by the way) had to shoot him in self defense.
But I guess I just love America too much.

Is Martinez’ defense really that this 140 lb kid knocked him down with one punch, got on top of him, and was able to repeatedly bash his head into the cement? The same guy that was on edge enough to call the cops because he saw the kid walking around allowed the same kid to get close enough to hit him with a punch?

i think there’s very few on both sides who want to do that, most people just want to see the police actually do their job and investigate the incident and bring up charges if they warrant it.

No. Wrong. That is not the intent of the political right. If anything, their intent is to let the story play out and NOT rush to judgement. If I am going to throw stones at someone (Zimmerman), I would love to hear the whole story. Show me a police investigation, show me a trial, and then I will tell you where I fall on the issue. Right now, we have a minority-on-minority crime, but yet somehow the left portrays the right as a bunch of coldblooded people who feel Mr. Martin got what was coming. That narrative couldn’t be further from the truth.

Re: Zimmerman – the police are in a no-win situation. Based on his statements and eye-witness corroborating testimony, they believed that he did not commit a crime, and were therefore unable to hold him. The laws can be changed, such as to outlaw neighborhood watches – but nothing else really can be done (outside of a possible wrongful death civil suit).

i hope they touch on wolverines in the frozen planet series…they’re fucked up animals.
Basically the story goes like this: The scientists at Glacier are trapping Wolverines in ultra-heavy traps constructed from eight-inch-thick wooden logs, luring the creatures in by tempting them with a nice fresh beaver carcass, then tagging them and releasing them back into the wild. Plenty of the wolverines trapped this way have been known to break out of the fucking cage by clawing and/or chewing through the walls overnight. M3 is the only one to ever break INTO one that way. Oh yeah, and it wasn’t because this apex predator was dying to dig into that beaver carcass either – it was because M3′s arch-nemesis (Male Number 6, basically M3′s version of Trevelyan from Goldeneye) had been trapped in there and M3 wasn’t fucking above cleaving his way through eight solid inches of timber to get a chance to attack his hated enemy and chief rival. Forget mercy. Forget kicking someone when they’re down – this guy will shred your damned face off the second he gets the opportunity. He’s just hard like that. So don’t fuck with him.

How about right in the beginning when they showed that polar bear find a lady, and fight off a challenger. And then fight off another challenger, and be bloody, and then fast forward to two weeks later, when they were finally done mating, and he looked like he’d been in 40 fights, because he had been in 40 fights? And he looked like he was wandering off to die from having his side ripped open?

What does piss me off, though, is that two million people signed a petition that Zimmerman should be arrested. Fuck that. There’s a reason we have a judicial system. Guilty or not, he should only be taken to trial if the evidence dictates it. I know if I find myself in some shit, the last place I want passing judgment on me is the GD Internet.

As a pinko lefty poverty pimp, I actually think there’s no way this kid was walking home minding his own business while some angry neighborhood watch guy rolled up and shot him. There’s more to this story than the narrative being played out in the media.
And it’s not like Zimmerman sniped him from across the street. He had cuts and bruises all over his head and face, like he had been in an altercation.

You probably weren’t a kid watching Alien on HBO in the early 80′s, being frightened near to death, only to then have Sigourney Weaver appear in nothing but panties and a tiny undershirt.
ha, i begged my dad to rent that one sunday after church, he looked at me, shrugged his shoulders and said “ok”. 2 hours later, i’m terrified, my dad is taking a nap, and sigourney weaver shows up in her delicates to kill the alien. great, great memory of a 9 year old.

I’m amazed people would dislike her, to be honest. I have almost no opinion of her, but I certainly would never avoid watching a cool show because she (or Oprah or Sean Hannity) narrated it.
Well I certainly wouldn’t do that either, I just don’t see the appeal. But Clay is right, I was not a child in the early 80′s watching her roll up in her underwear and save the world.

Kind of out there but I am reading a book called “How We Decide” by this neuroscientist. Very interesting on the brain’s process of how we make decisions in terms of rationale and emotions. Emotions are lot more important to our processes than we think and should not be left out of the equation.

I’m going to check out Sunshine. I had forgotten about that one and never watched it.
It’s really quite good. Lots of atmosphere, great visuals, some strong acting performances from Scarecrow and Captain America (seriously). Danny Boyle goes full Danny Boyle with the camera work at the end though. Completely unnecessary and almost capsizes the entire thing.

the ones linked above are used, tho they retain their value incredibly well…used, the guy’s asking $1,299 for the irons and $349 for the wedges. new, depending on options, you’re probably looking at close to $2k for the set.
granted…if you buy a set of irons and wedges from a store, get your lofts and lies fit, get custom shafts and grips installed, you’re looking at around the same price only your clubs were factory made rather than handmade.

It was one of those decisions you make after a few hours of being in the sun with a few friends and a ton of beer. Make no mistake, they were hot.

Flat top. Always on a flat top. The greatness of a burger is the fat, and when you grill it the fat leaves the burger and falls into the grill. On a flat top the burger essentially cooks in its own fat, therefore making it outstanding. We are lucky though, because our range has an attachment that creates a flat top so it’s much easier to do than putting one on top of the burners.

The burger on a flat top argument is valid. Granted these days it seems people use such lean meat for burgers that it barely matters.
