"So, why is this latest attempt at corporate welfare necessary? The timber industry might take their trees and relocate elsewhere. The electric companies might build their nuclear plants elsewhere and spew their coal emissions in some other state. To keep these wonderful citizens, we must give them tax breaks and corporate welfare amounting to $162, 000,000 a year. Screw the minimum wage workers and the grocery tax relief they deserve." Delphi at his or her best.
There are still athletes & coaches who are don’t have multimillion dollar salaries, love the game, respect their opponents, play hard, are not self absorbed, don’t take themselves too seriously, and don’t threaten to take their balls and go home if things don’t go their way. The NWA Rollergirls appear to be in this elite group. They are also willing to take time out to give autographs or have their pictures taken with fans, young or old, without additional compensation (See, Bad News Bailey with fan pictured here) May they remain, pure and campy.
I hope Delphi is not mixed up in this.

Virg is rooting for them because (1) of Katrina (2) friends and kin are for them (3) Bill McClard, who kicked the old fashioned way played for them and (4) sentimental reasons. On December 21, 2003 he saw his first professional football game alive-Saints v. Jaguars and witnessed the River City Relay the most exciting football play he has ever seen. Brooks to Stallworth to Lewis to McAllister to Pathon. Virg was getting a beer for the overtime and missed the missed extra point, and the overtime.

We miss you Goose. You thrilled us, made us laugh & died too young. Sorry that you didn't get a shot at playing either sport at the University of Arkansas.
On a semi-related note, Virgil misses the days when there was more versatility, like Goose had in two sports, in one sport-football. When players went both ways, they were smaller, faster, and healthier. If kids are going to emulate athletes, better that they not have force fed behemoths as models.
On another semi-related note, Virgil highly recommends the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum in Kansas City and the contiguous American Jazz Museum.
I was a day late last year, so I thought I’d be a day early this year to make it up to you. You made our mouths water with your Address To A Haggis and inspired Groundskeeper Willie to share the joy. You could rouse us to battle with Scots Wha Hae, make us sentimental with Auld Lang Syne, make us think with To a Mouse, or make us do or feel danged near anything you wanted with yer verse. Then, the second time around, you pleased our ears and made and made us laugh with yer Bazooka. God Bless ye.
“Near on four years after Mission Accomplished, and you're still kissing this moron's ass. . . Just because George Bush continues to lie to the American people, it doesn't mean that you have to lie to the press and to your constituents . . .” Delphi Blasts Boozo Again.

Huckabee’s ass may be skinny now, but it still took all of the State’s emergency money to cover it.

“. . . Saddam Hussein is Dead. So are Three Thousand Americans. The regime in Iraq has been changed. Yet victory will not be declared: not only does the war go on, it’s about to escalate. Obviously the turmoil in Iraq is worse than ever. . .We have been in Iraq for 45 months. Many more Americans have been killed in Iraq than were killed in the first 45 months of our war in Vietnam. I was in the U.S. Air Force in 1965, and I remember well when President Johnson announced a troop surge in Vietnam to hasten victory. That war went on for another decade, and by the time we finally got out 60,000 Americans had died. God knows we should have gotten out ten years earlier. “Troop surge” meant serious escalation.” Ron Paul
