How do you know they didn't just get it from some Libyans in exchange for a shiny bomb casing full of used pinball machine parts?

Hey John, it sounds like you're trying to dig for a reason to call this a foul. Not sure why ... but how about this.

You felt that the player was taunting God by pointing up. You swear you heard him mumble, "Hah! See that God, even you couldn't stop me!"

They did... but luckily Teen Wolf went back in time to fix that problem.

We have had this called against us so it must be a foul, no?

Well that was plutonium if I remember correctly.

Great, this thread is probably on a DHS watchlist now.

More than likely by now we've flagged a computer at Homeland Security. I wonder if this entire thread made it to the bossman's desk for review.

So not being able to pray or point to god after a touchdown is more proof we are doomed as a country? You guys need to reevaluate what you are thinking.

Who said America was doomed? Doomed implies a guarantee. What was said was "trying". Big difference.

I'm saying that America isn't as good as it was 15 years ago. And 20 years before that. And...

When was it at it's best? Not sure, but it certainly isn't 2010.

I suppose it depends on who you ask. I would disagree 100%. There are countless things that are better now than 5, 15, 35 years ago. Ask someone who believed anything different than the norm (or looked different) if they thought things were better in 1975 than now. I'm sure you'd get a flat NFW.

America was better 20 years ago? Don't you live in Canada? Stick to Canadian rulings please.

The gap between have and have-nots in America (and Canada) is bigger than ever before. A record number of people in the US are living in poverty. Education is at a very low level. The housing market is in shambles.

And all of this applies to Canada, too. Canadians have a record amount of debt, and our unemployment rate is rising.

Cuba is opening their doors to free enterprise, after admitting that Communism (at least their brand of it) no longer works, and hasn't for quite some time. It won't be tomorrow, but give it some time and you'll see more US jobs lost - and going to Cuba.

Maybe the reference to specific years (1995 and 1975) aren't the best, but both US and Canada have not continually moved forward for a better society in recent times.

All because we can't praise God after a TD!!!!!!

Maybe it is the lack of prayer in school!
