One of the reasons why football jerseys have become so tight across the pads is to prevent the holding that occurs on every play. So that plays a role. Holding is a penalty in hockey, too, but it’s not called as often. The sticks occupy the hands. ...

If you look closely, you can see that Jean Grey was using her psychic powers to provide the punch to Morph's Hulk form. That's her aura around him....

It could be from the stress put on the joint of the jaw when the dentist removed your tooth. Sometimes they can put a lot of pressure there. Just a thought....

It’s not so hard, but it takes a little time. Keep Sophie in a room separated from Lolo. They will be able to smell each other in the house for a few days and get used to that. That’s half the battle. After a few days, open the door to that room and let them hiss at each other a while. If it get...
Let’s not forget either that ESPN has dipped into the gambling biz with ESPN Bet. So that means the NFL will have “an equity stake” in a company that has a partnership with a betting app. But that won’t affect the games at all. Nothing to see here, folks… ...
He doesn’t need to say anything over something so minor. But he has said in the past that he does not believe it is the role of the President to comment on every little thing, because he doesn’t want to influence or discourage any student or faculty opinion. He wants them to do the talking, not ...

It is a combination of inherent leftist bias in the media with an equally strong desire by the media to not learn the nuances of a story fully. I used to work in a newsroom. You can trust me when I say the room is full of people who develop a vision or opinion of a story in a snap, and don’t vee...

The Kraken just fired their head coach, Dave Hakstol. Can’t say I’m surprised. The team lacked intensity from the get-go in 2023/24. ...

The problem with this email is that it disregards the notion of being well-rounded. Sure, athletes don’t need to know physics, but somewhere out there is an athlete who also knows physics, and an artist who understands math, and an entrepreneur who loves literature. And guess what? Kids who are only...

Antonio Brown’s opinions are barely worth the pixels it takes to display them, same as mine. Classic case of a falling star appropriating a rising one to just say “hey! Remember me!” Sad. ...

The Jesus of Nazareth miniseries from 1977 is still the best full depiction of His life, in my opinion. All-star cast. Beautifully directed. Well-written. Robert Powell is fantastic as Jesus. Amazon Prime. I paid like $3.99 to own it back in December. ...

re: At Dollywood

Dollywood has some legit rollercoasters. I was shocked when I went. I thought it was going to be kind of lame. Uh… that park goes waaaaaay harder than I thought!...
This week’s episode has a great scene that plays off of the criticism the show takes for the time between seasons. It’s really funny. You’ll know it when you see it. ...
