Voting to cancel the tariffs is only a step on the path. Nothing to celebrate about until the tariffs are actually ended.

Wel, the half time show is over and the Earth is still spinning. I can't wait to hear the complaints

I thought it was quite celebratory in nature.

With Pry getting fired early in the season, the resulting opt-outs, and injuries, they spent most of the time sorting out available players to field a lineup each week. The defense ended up relying on a few true freshmen down the stretch. I don't think Siefkes had a real chance to run his defense.

There is no possible redemption for his prior acts

In other words, they have no intention of paying it.

That's rich.

They are laundering money thru the defense budget. There is no accounting on this money, and so they are free to use it as they wish.

Yet another argument for the case that checks and balances do not really exist in the US Governmrnt

What's he doing in California. Washington state, and DC that is any different?

Just face it. We are living in The Age of National Embarrassment. Every day brings new cringe worthy events.

I'm not a Verstappen fan, but I have to admit that he drives like a man possessed. The most single minded driver on the grid.

If he does kill baby animals in his spare time, he does so by driving over them. There are no witnesses because he also drives over them.

This year is the best chance UVA has to win this game in a few years. Their QB gives them a distinct advantage

I'm happy that nobody was injured, but I feel a message here.

Kelly was not a popular man. He had done some things...The AD negotiated his buyout down to $20M from $53M using the morals clause in his contract.
