difference between arabs and muslims...really has no bearing on what the US does...if they want to take action themselves, have at it! Oh...that's right, they can't.

Final: Hurley 36 East Ridge 12

bingo...i told you. Now congress will shoot this like a duck and Obama will act all outraged at the Republicans and we'll get back to the semi-normal SNAFU in Washington. This isn't over by a long shot though.

best record in baseball....5 game win streak...magic number down to 15!

I hate it to, but it's not our job to protect the world, we have enough to take care of at home. Obama has an easy out on this one, no one seems to be talking about it...all he has to do is take this to congress...let them shoot it down and he saves face for the most part. At this point, what are we really going to accomplish? We have broadcast to the Syrians we are going to shoot cruise missiles at the know chemical weapon sites...so what do you think they have done by now? Moved them to civilian safe places like hospitals and schools where they know we can't shoot in to. Any thing we do right now is just stupid and a waste of money...it will have zero effectiveness and will just piss off the Russians and make us look even worse on the world front....it's just not a smart move...nothing about it is smart at this point. If they wanted to act, they should have done so a week ago and not said anything to anyone before hand.

damned if we do...OK if we don't.

we will find out tonight! lol

They would if Israel attacked Iran...no doubt about it.

This all (publicly) started with W's "Axis of Evil" speech...they've been methodically screwing around with every one of those countries ever since. The amount of time it takes to ramp up a legit military operation and get the logistics all worked out to attack another country takes years of planning to pull off...in a pinch at the very least months. The Iraq invasion was in the planning for years, they just took the open door 9/11 gave them to execute it. I'd imagine the same is true with Syria and North Korea as well...they see a window of opportunity to forward the agenda and jump on it. Israel is the one who provided all the intel on this, Israel has been wanting to attack Iran for years now, Syria and Iran would both be involved in any conflict and Syria has an air force that could well strike in Israel if it happens. By having the USA take out Syria, it would render that useless. That's what this is all about. The USA is convinced Russia will not go to war, I think they are sadly mistaken and are underestimating Putin...he is a smart man, but has a bit of a "loose cannon" side to him. If Obama goes after Syria without any support, the Russians will for sure jump in...then we have to "HOPE" that the UK will join us at that point....if not, it's going to get really ugly...really fast.

If France is your only friend in a war, you are in big trouble. The USA has become a hypocrite in the eyes of the rest of the world. Gitmo and what we did in Iraq has cost us our high ground on human rights over the long haul. That's the straight up truth, but a lot don't want to admit it.

The UN is a paper giant...nothing more...any "force" the UN has comes from the USA and the UK...other than that no one else really gives a crap. I would love to see the UN dissolved.

Richlands was "beatable" back in the 70's and 80's...they have been all but invincible in the district, for the most part, since Mance took over. None of the old SWD teams, even Abingdon, were really pushovers...SWD was a strong district for many years.

no mention of paw paw or crawfish...not legit.

VHSL has all but killed of the districts at this point...anything other than bragging rights flew out the window when district champs stopped getting automatic bids to the playoffs. If it makes you feel better saying you dominate something though, stroke the old ego.

Russians have previously threatened to attack Saudi Arabia if the USA steps in to Syria. Everyone likes to think things are well in balance, but stuff could get sideways fast. Don't under estimate the Russians and what they will do under Putin.

I'm sick of it, and i'm not alone...just saw a poll, yeah i know there are a zillion polls, but latest numbers on public opinion in the USA of the USA going to war with Syria is 91% against it...9% approval...can't imagine this going over well with many at home. Now, seems the intel they are basing all of this on came from Israel...I don't know what the exact deal is here, but I don't like it...something is not right with this whole story.

lol...thats not even a slap on the wrist...If I was A&M i'd just sit him for the whole game and not risk the injury haha.

Where's Leonard??? Time to kick the dog!

we need to let the rest of the world burn and deal with whoever crawls out of the ashes.

well why can't the rest of the world deal with it for a change?

I'm sick of being the police force of the world...bring everyone we have spread all over the globe home, let these idiots fight it out amongst themselves and bring down holy hell on anyone who messes with our homeland. This country has gone straight to hell over the past 20 years...they need to fix the mess we have at home, stop letting china and everyone else do business here for free, stop wasting OUR money, and stop trying to run the entire world. The USA needs to get back to the "carrying a big stick" policy and not be afraid to use it...that does NOT mean going to the middle east to try to run the show...let them do whatever they want with each other and stay out of it until it directly effects us here at home...might be some tough times to get there, but in the end things would be much better I think...and we have no business occupying any other nation for any reason unless they have given us a legit reason to do so...such as an attack on our homeland. I'm just sick of it all...we have no business in Syria...period....that is just another money pit.

glad you guys like it. reminder...very important! two things - and these are to help YOU. (1) make sure you have the correct email address in your profile!

I'm still getting emails from people asking when the forums are going to open back up again from the upgrade the other day.

I don't think it's as close as people think this year. I'd say Richlands by 16.

magic number down to 20.

Grundy got thumped pretty good tonight by Gate City and Grayson...be a good thing for them this early on playing some legit competition. Gate City 28-12 Grayson Co 49-16 Saw a lot of things Grundy needs to work on tonight, but saw a lot of good things as well...and the boys seemed pretty upbeat at the end...it's tall order to play 3 qtrs against Gate City then face a fresh Grayson Co team!
