The GOAT,s gonna do what the GOAT does.
But why did GB take that late FG rather than going for the TD on 4th down?

Re: Gone but not forgotten....
RIP Hank Aaron. Truly 1 of the all time greats. He was a great man & not just for his baseball career. He will be missed. X2 x3. Privileged to have seen him play in person several times. I’ve seen a couple of excellent tributes that really capture the man (at least as I perceived him) including the...

Re: The Neverending Thread for Political Shit
Trump must be furious and it does my heart good to imagine that. He must realize that he made the wrong decision to slink out of town. By 11 am he was a non person. It was pretty amazing hearing him get dissed over and over again without being mentioned by name during multiple inauguration speeches....

Unfortunately for Wolf the bet was based on the election, not the inauguration. I guess paying tomorrow, if he does, is better than not paying at all but the reputational damage is done.tinnitus photography wrote: ↑Tue Jan 19, 2021 11:38 ami'll be sure to check my venmo and paypal tmrw after biden lifts his hand from the bible.

The new Netflix series Lupin is very enjoyable in a "light entertainment" kind of way. But beware: What they don't tell you is that the show abruptly ends in midseason.
