Heckuva mentality I'm dealing with here. Going through life trying to right every wrong is an endless and tiresome journey. The whole thing in a nutshell is that it happened. Right or wrong, it happened. Why don't the Redskins sue Spain and France for owning the Louisiana territory and eventually selling it to the U.S.? Got to be something they can squeeze out of that. I don't go through life feeling like I owe anyone anything for something I had no control over, whether it was right or wrong. It is what it is. The greatest country the world has ever seen has its faults, but naming an NFL franchise the Washington Redskins does not even make the list. How petty we have become to give such nonsense any attention at all.

Please name a country that has not been invaded and the aborigines defeated, or a country that had its own revolution where murder was in tall order. Throughout history, people have been conquered, their land and women taken, leftovers were executed, borders have expanded, entire civilizations have disapppeared, etc.....the only ones crying are the ones trying to line their pockets (they are owed). If not for the way things have developed, neither you nor I would be here. You think Hitler was a murderer? Check out Stalin. Compared to Stalin, Hitler was a Saint, and Stalin murdered his own people. Ever hear of any Russians saying they are owed something? Nope, only in America because this is the only country guilty of happening. There....opposite of here Their....shows possession They're.....contraction for they are Know.....have knowledge of No....opposite of yes

The sentence should be set in stone. 17 year olds get 10 years, 19 year olds get 12, 20-25 year olds get 15......etc.The extenuating circumstances are for the high priced lawyers to argue. The three time loser should not have had the opportunity.

That's what is wrong with the judicial system anyway......too many levels of guilt for the same crime. I think 20 years is better than the alternative to breaking into my house. That could warrant the death penalty.

Love some Stevie Ray for sure. A personal favorite of mine is the late Gary Moore playing with Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce, both of "Cream" , on their "Around the Next Dream" album. The song "Naked Flame" has one of the best guitar fade-outs I have ever heard. Find it on YouTube and listen. Lead riffs?.....too many to list but here is a few. Jimmy Page.....Good Times Bad Times Since I've Been Loving You Ritchie Blackmore....Highway Star Eagles....fade-out to Hotel California.

If the man gets fired, he can always apply at BISD. This is a huge case of who gives a shat. If the man were not a Fox newsman, there would be no story. I wonder why that is?

Aren't you glad you live in a free country where you can denounce the major religion in a public forum? Why not try that in India, China, or Iran? Ask those countries what they think of gays. Why does being gay have to be wrong only in God's eyes? Homosexuality is a perversion that has been vilified for centuries. Using the excuse that America is a free country as the catalyst for homosexuality to be accepted as the norm, is a terrible way to interpret our rights and freedoms. This country is still a democracy where the majority rules. Why is it that your stances seem to imply that the majority is always wrong? The odds are against that being the case.

You are not allowed to practice your faith in this country? Please tell me which religion can't. What does freedom of religion have to do with this topic?
-
Living in a free country does not mean that you have the freedom to do anything you wish. The things some people say sometimes is truly unbelievable.

Thanks, I don't have a lick of sense. Good one. What makes you think I was happy with Beirut? The thing is, this is not about Beirut, it is about Benghazi. When people's heads could roll, the only defense is to bring up other's trespasses rather than deal with the situation at hand. Always redirecting blame is a typical cowardly response rather than owning up to one's mistakes and what can be done to correct them. Fighting terrorism is difficult. Doing nothing and lying about it is something I will never tolerate and neither should you.

What is really sad is the simple fact that Americans died in the attack. No support was given and no retaliatory strikes carried out. It was like "burying heads in the sand and maybe it will go away" being fearful of what the world would think. This never has been the attitude of a true American and should never be tolerated. To sit here and discuss this from a Democrat/Republican standpoint and take sides, which I truly have never been able to figure how the same people can make excuses for these inexcusable acts of leadership, is totally ridiculous. Think if that was your dad who was murdered, then you will get your head straight. No American should ever accept his brothers being attacked and killed anywhere in the world without a swift response and total show of power. It is the only thing terrorists understand and the only way we should be.

Lots of players will be uncomfortable come shower time. Maybe he could be a cheerleader for Adam Sandler in "The Longest Yard".

Mack won a NC and played in another. A one point last second loss to Tech kept him from going to another. How soon we forget. Time catches up with lots of coaches. It's why some leave on a winning note. I still see how Texas has to stand alone against an entire conference. The magnitude of it all. Texas has big shoulders. Funny how Igs never compare themselves to anyone else....even in their new conference.....sec +2. Good info GCM pats. Who woulda thunk it?

Only thing I can figure is so the vet don't get left out.

Instead of concentrating so much on arming teachers, which is a good idea, so much more needs to be done in the mental health arena. Sandy Hook.....mom knew her son was a loony and capable of harming others. Columbine....parents were nowhere around when these two were making explosives and planning their attack. Aurora theater shooting......this guy was mentally insane. I guess it happened overnight. Too many people walking the streets who have serious issues and doctors who think they can control them with meds. Old school days lots of these people would have visited Rusk for a stay.

Since the SEC added two teams from the Big XII, I will now refer to them as the SEC (+2)

Igs had 3 first rounders and were 8-4.

No joke. And that QB, at one time, was the winningest college football QB ever. He also took his team to the NC game. Just goes to show what a different game the NFL is. Too bad JFF can't stand on his own merits without and ex UT QB being mentioned.....go figure. -

I don't see Chicago or Pittsburgh taking him. Dallas does not "need" him, but Jerry will take him. -
Everything is a conspiracy. Geeeeez.

.....because she was getting back at his wife who accused her of duping him out of millions. The recording is what I didn't like, but people think I am defending Sterling. I am about everyone's rights.
