Is the sec playing poorly all auburn's fault??
Posted by Truckasaurus on 12/31/14 at 11:08 pm
After being the only sec team to lose a bcs championship to a non-SEC team, our conference has looked beatable.
I don't think it's a reach to blame auburn for all these teams playing with no confidence and these other teams playing like they think they can win....

Government spending increases have slowed considerably.

UPS and FedEx provide a service. Take item to place.
If space exploration were privatized, would Voyager 1 have launched? What about the moon landings? Would a private company have paid to go there so they could come back here and sell the moon dust?...

Almost half of this board probably believes the numbers are all made up. If drudge, zerohedge, blaze say the economy sucks, the economy sucks.
Deal with it. Facts don't matter....

That's just silly.
I understand privatization of things like satellite launches. There is profit to be had from that.
There will likely never be that kind of market for space exploration.

I called him out as being the best candidate for Secretary of Defense.
Looks like the President agrees.

(It was antiquated in that you had to be white, but n...
