Scattershooting

A girls' basketball team from a Christian High School beat another team 100-0. Does that statement need a comment, or does it stand alone.
One time I asked a fella I used to know what he thought about a shellacking that his team took. He said, "We have to get better." Pearls of wisdom sometimes just jump out at you.

Quotes from the past?

"We have to get better." ----- Poland, 1939

"We have to get better." ----- Custer, 1876

Sometimes it just ain't that easy.

I haven't been able to watch much TV this week. I don't miss it. Then why will I sit all weekend and start plowing through the DVR'd episodes that I have recorded? Stupid, I guess, but I need to see David Caruso cock his head, say something cryptic, and put on his sunglasses. ----Classic!

What does this saying mean? "I wake up every morning like a baby duck. In a new world."
I use it a lot --- I hope it doesn't have terrible connotations.

People tell me that I'm ADD, but I don't th .... LOOK! a puppy!!!

  1. why is everyone so mad at the team that won? Shouldn't the other team be ridden out of town on a rail for not scoring a single freaking point?

  2. I think they are mad at the coach...not the team. Micah (male) has no class. You don't just "happen" upon 100. I'm going to throw this out there: were there a female head coach, on either team, this might have been different. Oh, yes, I am blaming the other coach as well. I would've thrown a chair across the floor and gone Bobby Knight on his ass before I would've let the game get that bad.
    Also, I think TAPPS sucks. They need to reign in on recruiting and 'scholarships'. TAPPS is full of lopsided districts...just look at football scores.
