There is zero chance they were trying to pull the whole tree .It's only the big lowest branch they wanted down.You can see by the way that branch shakes as they pull and even a little by the angles.

Aircraft carrier - a warship with a flight deck on which aircraft can be launched and landed.

Tickets to the match were sold exclusively on Stubhub.

But see, it's not a mildly stupid thing he said. It's a TREMENDOUSLY stupid thing he said, and Drew is absolutely correct in his assessment that it shows how badly Simmons wants to seem like a superior thinker, and how horrifically out of his element he is in that regard.

Offsetting penalties? They must have gotten Saad for entering the wrong bench. He probably stole a water bottle.

Off Topic Formatting Feedback.
