21 true freshmen payed in the game Sunday night. True... freshmen. Including a lot of skill positions on the O and D lines. 6 games would be a fantastic season and a Liberty Bowl berth would be awesome.

Sat in the blue lot trying to leave for over an hour while we watched three accidents at the intersection because the two APD officers manning the intersection were giving conflicting hand signals.

There's a reason we don't go downtown much....
We go for Ikea. That's it. And that was only because the kids were not in school. Now they are. So screw Ikea.

I don't mind the zoo, but I hate leaving the zoo. How in the hell do you exit that place and go 85 north? Follow the signs to 85 North and you end up on 85 South.

What idiot decided to make two major interstates in the country combine into the downtown of once city and then make a couple of near 90 degree turns?

Just understanding where we are and where Butch (Jones) is and the growth that has to come from having youthful offensive and defensive lines -- surely we can get to six or seven wins, I hope, and get to a bowl game. If we don't, I hope people don't panic and go off the deep end.

"We maybe could win eight or nine if things went right...The thing you have to look at is the body of work over a period of time, and Butch hasn't had enough time yet to fix the situation he inherited."

It took me two years after I got hired at NWA to realize that 35E and 35W in MSP ran north and south. No wonder I kept getting lost.

When the interstates first opened, there was no merge lane getting on, right into traffic. Had to be there.

Did you ever experience the reversable lane system on Stone Mountain freeway?

Funniest rumor I've heard so far about C2015. Endeavor guy in my crashpad heard that the company is going to offer higher pay rates in exchange for stapling the End list to the bottom of ours. I almost spit my Summerfest out.

If turned out true, the DL L&G thread would be electric with Endeavor guys screaming about the injustice, the inhumanity!

Hell, I've been based in LA for almost 7 years and just figured out that the 101, that goes east-west actually is called north and south. Doesn't really matter though, I can go either direction and it takes me just as long.
