CINCINNATI, OH - APRIL 5: Yadier Molina #4 of the St. Louis Cardinals crosses home plate after hitting a grand slam in the ninth inning against the Cincinnati Reds at Great American Ballpark on March 5, 2010 in Cincinnati, Ohio. The Cardinals defeated the Reds 11-6. (Photo by Joe Robbins/Getty Images)

Those cats aren't the creepiest thing in the pitcher.

Apparently she doesn’t care that she is being devoured.

In football, the object is for the quarterback, otherwise known as the field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his recievers with deadly accuracy in spite of the blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.

In football, the object is for the quarterback, otherwise known as the field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his recievers with deadly accuracy in spite of the blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.

In baseball the object is to go home! And to be safe! "I hope I'll be safe at home!"

And Mclellan comes in to give Wainwright his 20th win and Cy Young awar…..Nevermind.

In football, the object is for the quarterback, otherwise known as the field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his recievers with deadly accuracy in spite of the blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.

In football, the object is for the quarterback, otherwise known as the field general, to be on target with his aerial assault, riddling the defense by hitting his recievers with deadly accuracy in spite of the blitz, even if he has to use the shotgun. With short bullet passes and long bombs, he marches his troops into enemy territory, balancing this aerial assault with a sustained ground attack that punches holes in the forward wall of the enemy's defensive line.

the law field

is becoming totally saturated because the ABA doesn’t really put a firm cap on the number of accredited schools, like there is w/r/t medical schools. So there are “lawyer mill” type schools churning out hundreds of ill-prepared law graduates every year, who essentially just bought their degree. That’s why there are a shit ton of bad lawyers, and relatively few bad doctors in comparison (although trust me, we read enough cases to know that there are some very bad doctors out there)

Yeah, I was really referring to the amount of free time

I had nothing but free time in undergrad. Now (if I’m being responsible), I go to school from 8 – 4, then come home and do work until I go to bed. Depressing. It’s almost worse than having a job in the real world (except its not, because I’ve done that too and man does that suck more than anything)

by mattyp on Apr 7, 2010 10:46 PM EDT up reply actions  

absolutely true.

i only lack free time because of the massive amount of extracurricular things i do. freshman and sophomore year, where i did very little besides go to class (usually did that, anyway…) i really didn’t have anything but free time either.
