Re: Drill baby.....drill!

I don't know much about the chemical properties of oil, but I do know that they still find toxic oil in PWS, Alaska, and it's been 20+ years since the Valdez ran aground.

The right wing isn't moronic. Misguided, probably...but who in politics isn't? The right thinks the left are morons, the left thinks the right are morons...it's all a matter of perspective really; it goes both ways.

Re: QB controversary at ODU?

Re: 68 team field for NCAA it's official

Woot! 68 is fine, and three more bubble teams getting in is around the number of teams that are borderline every year. Still have doubts for the future, but a reprieve is better than 96 teams for now.
