    That is hardcore to even add the sig in there.

    Yeah, his sig was easy to do, so I just typed it in and left my regular sig out. Since our usernames both start with the letter 'R' and we have the same amount of rep, I wondered if anyone would notice.

    Because it gives the opportunity for this scenario to happen.

    Team scores with 2:10 left, commercial break
    Kick-off, 5 seconds run off the clock, commercial break
    1st play from scrimmage, 2 minute warning, commercial break

    basically 3 commercial breaks within 10 seconds of game-time.

    Does anyone actually do stretches in the "7th inning stretch" in baseball?

    And, why are they singing "Take Me Out TO the Ballgame"? Cuz they're already AT the ballgame, no need to ASK to go to a place when you're already there!

    Get rid of those needless customs, its "place" has come and gone.

    I sing "Deep in the Heart of Texas" at the Astros games. Hell, most of the time it's the best part of the game. The Astros will get better eventually :(

    But when I start collecting social security, if there's any left (there won't be, I'm 26).
