   For football and basketball College athletics is dead. These are now totally professional sports with ‘student’ participation only optional. College SPONSORED sports maybe? The NCAA needs to regroup around the ‘minor’ sports where a scholarship might still be sufficient payment to the athletes. I partially blame all the sports pundits who have totally discounted those scholarships as payment for services for all this mess!

I pay them $10/month to retain that account despite having 2 other valid email accounts just to avoid having to change.

   The weight is one sixth, but the mass is still the same. This means getting the barbell started in motion is more difficult. The accelerated part of the motion would appear to be in slow motion!

   Delivery folks don’t ring the doorbell. They toss your stuff in front of the door ( ignoring the available overhang) onto a wet spot then take a photo which they email to you to prove they did deliver ( maybe last night ) before someone came and stole it!

   Just realized that Brett seldom actually draws anything as he can use the same strips over and over with new punchlines!
