You really going to risk the whole season on this?

I saw this south park episode
AFC was just trash QB play this year in the playoffs.
I was watching a game yesterday with the video replay for an out of bounds ball by the defender. The defender clearly grabbed the offensive players hands causing him to lose the ball out of bounds. So they reversed the call to give the defender the ball as it was last touched by the offensive player even though he was clearly fouled… just doesn’t make sense.

Nolan Ryan give robin Ventura the business
Chemical margins are terrible. And have been that way for a few years now. Not sure when demand will catch up to all the build out that has been done the past few years. Need a few plants to actually go under.
He was looking for the foul when driving. Just good situational defense to let him drive. I don’t think it was point shaving.
Strictly stock probably GE that I had nearly given up on that split. GEV and GE aerospace have been killers. GOOG has been awesome lately as well.

My current house I bought right before COVID is going to do very well when I sell; especially as we get $500k tax exclusion.
If Ecuador wants them offer passage on a plane straight there. Simple

From my unit:

During his third combat tour, Sergeant Cashe was serving with the 1st Battalion, 15th Infantry Regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division. On the evening of 17 October 2005, he was on a patrol in northern Iraq when his Bradley Fighting Vehicle (BFV) struck an improvised explosive device, crippling the BFV, igniting its fuel cell, and causing it to burst into flames.

Drenched in fuel, Cashe leapt from the gunner position and ran to the rear of the vehicle to help soldiers escape through its back hatch. As Cashe repeatedly braved the flames engulfing the BFV, his fuel-soaked uniform ignited; despite the severe burns he received, Cashe persevered, ultimately pulling seven soldiers and a translator from the burning vehicle.

Cashe suffered second and third-degree burns over 72% of his body, ignoring his own excruciating pain as he took the lead in administering aid to his comrades until they could be evacuated for medical treatment.
Getting the repeat offending criminals was always the priority. Other violators were just picked up along the way. Hint: illegal alien criminals hang out with other illegal alien criminals.

There are still plenty of fish in the barrel for BP

Texas should have tried to secure the WC on their own. It’s way too spread out across the whole continent. No reason to do a lot of upgrades for just a handful of games

Don’t you have to have a minimum number of games?
Yeah don’t disagree with Vince but as mentioned he wasn’t the heisman.

Others have had great games. And not arguing this was the best. I’m just looking for other meaningful plays when it mattered most from a heisman. Not all heismans win a NC so it’s pretty narrow. And some games are not competitive so individual efforts on a specific play aren’t always the deciding factor.


What’s a better one at a NC game?

ETA: obviously post award. Just a moment where you can acknowledge we get the right person as the heisman winner

Yeah since 2008 or so including the div its return is single digits. I do see some tail wind that might beat the markets through 2028. Probably safe hold for a few years but it’s still a commodity business where national oil companies will continue to take market share leveraging the service companies vs public companies.

That was the case over a decade ago but it’s been relatively flat and certainly underperformed the broader market. They do have some near term activity that should increase profits but I see it flattening by the end of the decade. With oil price being down and chemical margins being crap, I think there are some commodity pricing movements to the mean that could provide a boost over the next few years. But I wouldn’t hold for retirement.
