If anywhere was to be called the Fortress I'll think it be Harvard. That stuff could pass for a prison, soooo much cement
If it keeps them out, it's a fortress or contravallation. If it keeps them in, it's a prison or circumvallation. If it does both simultaneously, it's a tactical donut. Veni, vidi, mmm.
Not for WoProSo generally. Back in 2002/WUSA Tiffany Roberts got a yellow card, proceeded to question the referee's ancestry*, and immediately got a second yellow. *This is speculation but it must have been pretty impressive.

Can one of you kind souls start this week's thread? My thread starting power seems to have vanished for good.
