.People act as if the companies woulda just died out, but really they would have ditched the debt they were saddled with, restructured, and gone on more efficiently.

Well except for all the hundreds of thousands of workers who would been no longer workers. And all the workers related to their economic activity which would have seen their jobs evaporate. And so on.

Except in the MAC.

Meanwhile, in Hollywood, someone is pitching this as a buddy film featuring Matthew McConaughey and Seth Rogen

Agree. His beliefs are idiotic, and he's certainly living up to them.

Because the refs were keeping and accurate count of the downs on the field, so there was no danger of them actually getting another down?

I don't think they weren't putting it on Cundiff. He missed it, he admits it, no one would deny it. This column is an attempt at something called "journalism" and "quality analysis", mythical beings which we are told once roamed far and free in our media landscape.

Actually it looked more like a word with U, L, P, E, D, and another L for some reason.

Ah, I wasn't aware of the update in regards to Drew's Cheeseburger V-Card.

That's right In-n-Out: Take it from the guy who's never had a cheeseburger to tell you how to fix the Double Double.

Must be a reeeaaallly reform sect, what with the quotes from Revelation on the cheeseburger wrappers.

Thing is, in the Arena league they tend to throw the ball. A lot. So I'm not sure he's the best fit for that incarnation of football.

Not rare? You cited cases from games played back when this site was run by Leach and before it became famous for dong photos.

I certainly don't think its "most" (and I never said it was), but its sure a lot of them. Before he ever took a snap his jersey was among the top sellers, largely on the strength of his clean cut, religious guy image which was gobbled up by the god fearing masses. That's fine, people can like whoever they want, but…

I happen to think its petty that millions of Christians are willing to lift up and exalt an (at best) mediocre QB for no other reason except that he happens to be a Christian.
