Football
I am still reeling from the way the Steelers managed to snatch a tie from the jaws of victory against the Falcons on Sunday. Trent Lott and Democrats, you could learn something from this- When you play to not lose, you might just get what you ask for.
I also need some input from everyone. Why is it than when a team gets called for a false start, the official does the hand signal for fales start, and then states:
“Prior to the snap, false start, offense.”
Is there such a thing as a post snap false start? I thought only the offense could false start. Why don;t they just do the hand signal, and then say, “False Start, # 64, five-yard penalty?”
Hunh? Russia’s media expressed has

“We have specialists that deal with this problem. I suggest that you do such an operation that nothing grows out of you again,” Mr Putin reportedly said.
Again, hunh? Kinda makes you wish you could listen in on a Bush/Putin conversation. But just out of caution, I am staying the hell out of Moscow.
R.I.P.- The term ‘Chickenhawk.’

Bill Moyers, in all his glory:
Way back in the 1950’s when I first tasted politics and journalism, Republicans briefly controlled the White House and Congress. With the exception of Joseph McCarthy and his vicious ilk, they were a reasonable lot, presided over by that giant war hero, Dwight Eisenhower, who was conservative by temperament and moderate in the use of power.
That brand of Republican is gone. And for the first time in the memory of anyone alive, the entire federal government
