I came in third. Of four. We were all pretty close so I'm good. I can't believe Saltine is a word. That's what lost me the game.
So a cracker did you in!
I think it shouldn't be in there. Words like "Jeep" are fine because it no longer applys to only cars made by the Jeep company, but there is only one Saltine.
Way to go.
Say. You're last name wouldn't be "Greer" would it?
It does seem to be more of a name rather than a word.
I'd love to do that some day. I love football, but don't have the ability to have any kind of career in coaching, playing, training, etc. Now officiating I think is a real possibility. Have you ever read, I think it's called "The meat grinder" or "In the meat grinder" or something like that. It's a real interesting book about a washed up college player who became a ref. Chad somebody. You should see if you can find it.
Well, obviously not. NOthing I can do except start a petition to Websters/Scrabble.
Certainly. Will you sign?
never is....and generally unless I am talking about Nukes, I won't say it either :)
yes it has...which is why the buzz around Patrick was more advertisement than anything else. Had she crashed or fallen off of the pace really badly, that would have been a disaster for the organizers
We need to also organize a march on Washington.
I agree.
"With few exceptions", huh? For every Rae Carruth, Ray Lewis, or Jamal Lewis, I could name a few who don't get involved with that kind of stuff and donate their time/money to charities. The bad apples get all the attention because that's what the media wants.
"I'd like to thank (put sponsor here). Without (sponsor), I couldn't have won this race. Did I mention (secondary sponsor)? (Sponsor), the fuel behind (car owner) motorsports."
And I consider myself a NASCAR fan...
Mind adding me to your NFL ping list?
