Man, you're really high on the Saints this year.

It's the return of connor. Or maybe molson_golden.

Sweet, I can start playing again.

"Don't be like 2014 Eli Manning..."

Yeah, that's Catholic drivel to back up their version of Mary as perpetual virgin. There are no 1st century sources to back that up, in fact the first time an advanced age is mentioned is in the 5th century. Odds are Joseph was also in his teens, or perhaps a youngish widower.

Can't be certain. Mary was almost certainly a teenager; possibly as young as 13 or 14. Joseph may have been 16 or 17, or possibly older. It's much harder to deduce Joseph's approximate age than Mary's, though, given customs at the time; silly Catholic guessing notwithstanding.

I think he was joking, since the folks we call Islamic terrorists probably think you're as much of an infidel as the rest of us.

Nice try, Brandon. Rog has demonstrated time and again that he always has science on his side.

From what I recall, most of the posters here figured out pretty quickly that Bundy was on the wrong side of the law. Second, pointing out that this woman should have acted smarter in the situation is not "racist" or "trashy." It's the truth. Have we touched on why the family didn't bail her out? Three days on a $5,000 bond and nobody could help her out? I find that difficult to believe.

To a certain extent. The point is more that the teams that can get into the top four are predetermined.

He needs to start posting here.

Your particular set of political and religious views deserve their own thread. This surprised me.

Yeah! Everyone knows you do just fine on your own.

Oh dear god*

Still a toss-up for me, but he's dead. Allegedly.

That's because you're a reasonable human being.

Right, and nearly everyone agrees that four consecutive major golf championships is far and away a more impressive achievement than four consecutive women's major tennis championships. I'm still more impressed with Spieth. But you asked if Serena was greater than Spieth ("Serena > Spieth?"). That is the apples and oranges comparison.

Apples and oranges. First, the way the game of golf is set up makes it harder to "dominate" than the game of tennis. Second, Spieth is 21. I would probably say that winning two major golf championships in a row is harder in general than winning three major women's tennis championships in a row.

That's garbage. Some of the best moments in major championship history are when "journeymen" came away with the title. It's a beautiful part of the game.

Populism is the devil.

FTFY

I've had the complete opposite experience re: Jets vs. Giants fans. Giants fans are more level-headed and knowledgeable, it seems, while Jets fans are overgrown (wide, not tall) frat boys with no sense of football on a large scale.
