On 9/11, Monday night football Broncos game, my daughter was on the field helping to hold up the US flag.
So what? Yeah I guess, but it was kind of a big deal to her.

I'm guessing that would be a big deal to anyone.

But you know 5 is still really good. There's only a couple other teams with that many.

Neon Flying Squid: Amazing creatures soar more than 100 feet through the air at 11.2 metres PER SECOND | Daily Mail Online


Quote:
'Once they finish shooting out the water, they glide by spreading out their fins and arms,' Yamamoto's team said in a report.

'The fins and the web between the arms create aerodynamic lift and keep the squid stable on its flight arc.

'As they land back in the water, the fins are all folded back into place to minimise the impact.'

Like I said, 5 is really good! No lie, only 3 other teams besides the Patriots have that many Lombardies. It is something to be proud of by itself, you don't need to qualify it.


Shoot, maybe WPOZZZ is right and they'll only be tied with one team after this season, and perhaps sometime in the future they could own the record all by themselves.

It was so strange that you posted that yesterday. When I was at the store earlier in the day, I saw a lady wearing a six-burgh shirt.
