Obuma doesn’t know his responsibilities nor does he have priorities in order. He is using his power or rather misusing his power to push his racially motivated political agenda. Unfortunately, the next president that takes office and tries to clean up Obuma’s mess is going to be blamed due to the inadequate knowledge that a lot of the voters hold. I believe a lot of people believe that the effects of the damage are being felt now, but in truth the impact will come now and more so after this one gets out of office. I honestly believe the lack of knowledge is what keeps the party shifting that goes on. Right now a good portion of people are on the republican bandwagon, but if a republican gets into office due to the impact of the previous President the majority will be on the democratic bandwagon. Both parties have good candidates and both parties have horrible candidates so it is not a matter of me being a die hard republican. It is a matter of Obuma not knowing what he is doing or perhaps he does know exactly what he is doing as he destroys America.

The closest that might get would be Lindon Johnson, but I think he had others do the work and he just followed things intently, but also on his behalf Federal was also involved. Still nothing like whats going on today though, or the past several years.

                        suffers. I belive the same was true with Bruce
                        Pearl and the basketball program. Even after
                        Bruce was penalized from coaching, I think UT
                        suffered penalties. Of course there are going
                        to be some reprocussions on the program just
                        because the coach is connected, but in a way I
                        think our teams suffered more than the
                        coaches. Probably just a biased opinion, but
                        ya know.

                        Penn State incident is a pathetic joke. There
                        is no way that it could have went on that long
                        and the situations continued without someone
                        speaking up about it.

                        The whole concept of innocent until proven
                        guilty does not apply anymore. The concept is
                        now guilty until you prove yourself innocent.
                        Even if the Criminal Justice System sees you
                        as innocent until proven guilty, the rest of
                        the public are ready to hang you before they
                        even hear the evidence. A clear example of
                        this occurred the other day in class. After
                        the Grand Jury came back with a not guilty
                        verdict in Ferguson my professor asked the
                        classs what they thought about the incident.
                        The responses were well they knew if they
                        found him not guilty they were going to have a
                        riot, they should have just found him guilty
                        to keep the rioting from occurring, he was
                        wrong for shooting Michael Brown, etc.
                        However, not one person made a comment
                        regarding the evidence in the case. If you do
                        not follow the directions of the police expect
                        to be met with reprocussions. If you try to
                        get the officers gun expect to get shot
                        because I can guarantee that if all these
                        sideline judges were put in this same
                        situation they would want to go home to their
                        family as well and not sit idly by and let
                        some random citizen adolescent or adult take
                        their gun to shoot them with it. It is insane
                        the autopsy was done, and then if I am not
                        mistaken Obuma was not satisfied with the
                        results so he ordered another autopsy, and I
                        think there were a few more autopsies done
                        before they moved forward. How can you convict
                        a person that was engaging in self defense?

                        Unfortunately it sounds like in some of

                            On the sports media down there they are
                            already convicted.  Sounds like a
                            convoluted case to me, but I’m sure a lot
                            of them are anyway.

                        Then the NCAA will probably want to threaten
                        UT and the whole 9 yards, yet Pen State gets
                        off pretty easy.  There’s still a lot of
                        idiots around there that think that school is
                        blameless and inocent with what went on there.
                         Maybe UT should have set up in a much more
                        isolated spot like Pen State did.  Of course
                        I’m being a smart ass about that, but that is
                        partially how Pen State has gotten away with a
                        lot more for much longer.  A definite little
                        theefdom there.  Meanwhile schools like OSU
                        get nailed for a lot less and get threatened
                        with the chop.  Makes Illinois’s recruiting
                        violation back in the early 90s look like
                        chump change too, yet they were threatened
                        with full shut down of all sports activity.  I
                        guess it’s who you know in the NCAA.  Which
                        seems to me to be as clean as the driven
                        slush.  I guess in the whole UT situation it
                        was the school that stepped in and sat them
                        down, but don’t know all of the details of the
                        whole deal.  Guess we’ll hear something though
                        if they decide to pursue a case on them.

                        Very true. Right now UT is in the hot seat
                        regarding rape allegations against two of the
                        football players. I just read today that one
                        of the girl’s boyfriends is on the football
                        team as well. I read on that the boyfriend
                        caught her, and the girl is on the rowing
                        team. So, there are more elements to the
                        story, but KPD announced last night that there
                        investigation was complete and being sent to
                        the D.A.’s office to see if charges will be
                        pursued. It is a tragic situation either way
                        because if they are guilty then they have not
                        only ruined their careers, but also ruined the
                        victims lives. If they are not guilty, then I
                        would say there will not be a decision until
                        after the bowl game which will prevent them
                        from playing in the game. Not too mention that
                        if they are found not guilty there will still
                        be people holding it against them. So, either
                        way it is a major black mark on these players.

                        But a QB who knows how to tuck and run is
                        often not noticed until he’s gotten 10 yards
                        down the field if he can pull off the fake.
                         If they then concentrate to much attention
                        looking for him to run then he then is able to
                        either use a running back or tail back or
                        pass.  Thats why option offense is harder to
                        defend.  You have to have a QB that can take
                        some punishment though, no frail guys as QB,
                        or guys who can’t work outside of a pocket of
                        protection.  For those it’s a disaster for
                        them to try to run the ball themselves.  Does
                        though is in pretty good shape physically.
                         He’s taken sacks pretty well already this
                        year too.  There have been a few reckless
                        plays, but learning from them will cure those.
                         But that whole offense well really the whole
                        team is having to learn because there’s so
                        many freshman on that team this year.  They
                        are already coming together as a unit pretty
                        good, could be quite interesting even in a
                        couple of years, let alone 3 years from now.

                            He did play in the Bamma game, but he
                            wasn’t the starter I don’t think.  I think
                            they would have at least taken Florida
                            though, and maybe Georgia, and that would
                            have changed things a lot for U T.  Dobs
                            fits in to the type of offense that Butch
                            Jones likes to run which of course is an
                            option heavy offense.  No problem with
                            that, because your QB becomes a direct
                            offensive weapon at that point.  It is
                            either going to work or not.  There isn’t
                            a middle ground, usually it works though.

                                Even more surprising is that Illinois
                                managed to get in also.  Won just
                                enough games in Big 10 this year.
                                 It’s been a long time.

                                Interesting baseball trades going on
                                today too.  Sox are definitely getting
                                aggressive about trading.  Picked up a
                                closer something that they didn’t have
                                last year because the guy they wanted
                                to be closer was hurt early.  Then
                                they turn around and pick up Semarja
                                to beef up their starting rotation.
                                 Cubs have already been dealing, they
                                don’t have many secrets as to who they
                                are wanting, although the Lester deal
                                hasn’t happened yet.  But if they pick
                                him up that will anchor their starting
                                rotation quite a bit too.

                                As for TN, I still say thats a team to
                                be watching out for.  The SEC east
                                isn’t a super strong devision, it can
                                be taken and not have to get around a
                                team like Alabama.Depends on
                                recruiting but they’ve already
                                improved over last year’s team despite
                                injuries etc.  They don’t give up,
                                unlike the Chicago Bears who seeo just
                                curl up in a ball.

                                Illini basketball is looking pretty
                                interesting this year too and they’ve
                                already landed a major recruit to
                                start next year.  Lots of things on
                                the sports plate, something that is
                                needed since Da Bears are so bad this
                                year.

                                    Yep, keep an eye on those Vols,
                                    they are going to be heard in the
                                    next year tr two seriously the way
                                    things are going.  They’ve had a
                                    lot of injuries, but still manage
                                    to keep on going to some degree.

                                    Yes the style of offense they play
                                    actually fits Dobs better than the
                                    guy they had start the year, Dobs
                                    himself becomes a weapon because
                                    he can take more punishment
                                    running the ball himself.  Even in
                                    the Bama game they did’t give up
                                    even though Bama got a two score
                                    lead within the first couple of
                                    minutes of the game.

                                    Yes this whole internet thing is a
                                    great invention, have listened to
                                    more Tennessee games this year
                                    than Illinois games, although I
                                    did hear the Illini Gofers game
                                    and like everybody else was
                                    surprised they actually pulled
                                    that one off.  I bet the Gofers
                                    were surprised the most coming in
                                    with only 1 Big 10 loss at the
                                    time.  Think they looked over the
                                    Illini and got burned on that one.
                                     Well it serves them right they
                                    derailed the Illini a number of
                                    times in the past.

                                        the Vols and we will be going
                                        to a bowl game. I wish they

                                        The Bears have done a lot of
                                        that loosing this year
                                        especially to teams that
                                        logically would be worse than
                                        them.  Up until yesterday even
                                        playing at home wasn’t helping
                                        them out.  But the NFL this
                                        year is completely goofy anyway.

                                            Heather probably has the

                                            and stopping at Wal-marts
                                            in Canada again trying to
                                            get Liz’s attention.  But
                                            I’m not sure they are
                                            going to get Liz’s
                                            attention *lol*.

                                            Got an e-mail from Suzi
                                            off list so know she’s
                                            alive too.  BethAnn might
                                            be doing another batch of
                                            sessions of closet rap for
                                            her next album release or
                                            something, or she’s
                                            waiting to sell you a
                                            house Josh.  It might be
                                            “the perfect place.”  Or
                                            maybe not depends on who’s
                                            standard of perfection is
                                            being used perhaps.

                                            Don’t know about Don.
                                             Danny though is alive and
                                            well, eating lots and lots
                                            of cream corn, well
                                            probably every meal he
                                            eats is cream corn,
                                            because he doesn’t like it
                                            so he has been placed into
                                            the cream corn factor.

                                            Patti continues to improve
                                            bit by bit, gets a little
                                            more talkative over time
                                            at times.  She has a
                                            couple of appointments
                                            coming in December, one is
                                            physical, the other is the
                                            Neurologist.  But I’m
                                            thinking generally things
                                            will be going in the right
                                            direction for her as afar
                                            as they are concerned.

                                                Hello,

                                                How is everyone doing?
                                                I have not seen any
                                                post from the list in
                                                a few weeks now. I am
                                                wondering if I have
                                                not gotten myself
                                                booted somehow
                                                unintentionally. I
                                                guess the last I seen
                                                any post was Tom and I
                                                interacting about the
                                                family issues. The
                                                issues are not a
                                                hundred percent, but I
                                                do feel that since
                                                Amanda stood up and
                                                stood her ground we
                                                have gotten more
                                                respect. Now, it seems
                                                as though we are
                                                actualy people and not
                                                servants. However,
                                                that could change at
                                                any moment. Well, we
                                                have our
                                                prequalification
                                                letter and have found
                                                a few houses that we
                                                are interested in. We
                                                have to call tomorrow
                                                and get a real estate
                                                agent. Getting the
                                                prequal was a bit ofa
                                                hassle though. Today
                                                Amanda and I went and
                                                bought little man some
                                                birthday presents and
                                                got his location
                                                reserved. Sometime
                                                this week we have to
                                                get the invitations
                                                filled-out. Amanda and
                                                I are in the home
                                                stretch of the
                                                semester and
                                                everything seems to be
                                                going alright. I am in
                                                one class where I will
                                                not know if I passed
                                                or failed until the
                                                final grade comes out
                                                since 50% of the
                                                points aren’t going to
                                                be figured until the
                                                end of the semester.
                                                Amanda as far as I
                                                know is doing fine in
                                                her classes, she has
                                                some projects that she
                                                is working on, but I
                                                belive they are going
                                                fine. So, as always we
                                                have a ton of things
                                                going on, but little
                                                time **LOL**. Have a
                                                good one and I hope to
                                                be able to read some
                                                list traffic here in a
                                                few days. Take care
                                                and chat later.
