I’m all about compromise. My idea of team play is “Everyone doing things my way”.
There is no “I” in team, but there is in wIn.

“I vote inner mote crocs, outer mote wild pigs.”
Cross would leave inner mote for the outer.
Why do these people remain in the nation that they clearly do not care for?
It’s not clear what the crocodiles did to wind up in prison. They didndu nuffin.
