Not to wade into the argument, but I had this thought after an unrelated program (Frontline) featured the author of a book called "The Dumbest Generation".

@avclub-a281004dce23a29d1821f1e8430b6f8f:disqus I really strongly associate that with New Year's as well.  They also do (or, at least, used to do) it on the Fourth of July as well.

Not a flat 4.4, maybe high 4.4's though. But you're right.  Very rare speed, and highly unlikely. I also thought having him list his combine numbers was over the top, I highly doubt any pro athlete would actually talk like that in that situation.  He wouldn't need to list the reasons he could kick Jeremy's ass, those…

Living in Indiana as I have all my life, I remember thinking it was cool to see them here (or wherever they shot it, but you know what I mean) on the show.  I do think it's a bit cliched, but I'll stand up for the Daylight Savings Time thing being a huge problem, and one that wouldn't have been on the President's…

I prefer the drone policy to the "fabricate evidence to mislead the public into supporting a war" foreign policy.  Police officers use deadly force on US citizens on US soil.  The man you speak of actively trained the so-called underwear bomber, and was actively encouraging more attacks on Americans.  None of this…
