    Not to alarm anybody but this reminds me of the Urban Meyer stuff when I was told point blank by someone on the board that he wasn't going to get suspended.

    Then I got a call like 10 minutes before it was announced that they were going to do a press conference and Urban was pissed. Whoops.

    Trying to figure out if there is any legit reason for moving it back. Don't think there is, though. Maybe they're trying to get a quote from Jimmy or Dee?

    Oh I know why. I cannot say who for a long long time, but let's just say a very powerful influence changed some minds after threatening to pull support.

    I'm filled with hate and I've been drinking, but my yellow soccer team has been saved so now I'm a dancing queen.

    Hearing it's just going to be a statement, but maybe GC96 has heard otherwise.

    I'm on my way home to pick up Connor and the misses, so there will be at least a 9-month-old.

    They should just stop playing and throw their hand up in the air, looking for offside.

    They have more than 1 song, so even if you think Africa is better than any ABBA song the above would still be correct.

    The ABBA box set with all of their studio albums plus some extras is one of my favorite purchases in the last 5 years. A lot of very good songs never made it to ABBA Gold. A lot.

    “Going to Swenson’s” is the right answer, isn’t it?

    I was there around 1 and it was surreal. People walking in and everyone giving them hugs. Tears...lots of tears. Lots of “We did it” and raw emotion.

    You can’t bottle this and sell it on a street corner in Austin.
