It wasn’t quite the Doug Flutie “Hail Mary” pass in terms of historical importance, but Boston College pulled off a memorable trick play for a go-ahead touchdown Saturday before falling to Florida State at home.
BC took a 24-21 lead with four minutes remaining in the third quarter of its ACC matchup in Chestnut Hill on a 2-yard flip pass out of an unusual formation from quarterback Mason McKenzie to wide receiver Javarius Green. Eagles coach Bill O’Brien had five offensive linemen split out to the far left, with McKenzie rolling out to the right after taking the snap. Before the play, the 11 players in the huddle circled around each other like a scene out of the football movie “The Longest Yard.”

Houston's mayor announced that his city's police department would limit cooperation with ICE just days after the Democratic Party historically flipped Texas.
Mayor John Whitmire, a Democrat, said Friday that the Houston Police Department would no longer contact ICE only because someone has an administrative immigration warrant during a routine encounter that does not end in an arrest.

I think if does anything, he digs in harder. The appointment of Steven Miller may be a sign that he's gonna play hardball with the Dems for the remainder of his tenure. More than likely means very little will get done - kinda like very little's been done in the last year. Gonna be interested to see and hear Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker for the next 24 months, that's for sure...

This photo, reportedly from 1972, shows a police officer pouring out a beer instead of arresting the young people who were drinking it. Rather than taking them to the station, officers in many communities at the time chose to send teenagers home with a warning, a lecture and an empty can.
The “Officer Friendly” program began in Chicago in 1966, sending police officers into schools to build trust with children and young people. The name soon became shorthand for approachable, community-minded cops across the United States.
In the early 1970s, the legal drinking age varied by state, and many states had just lowered it to 18. For many teens of that era, a moment like this was the closest they ever came to trouble with the law.
I can remember very clearly this happening to us when we were hanging out on street corners and the cops'd sneak up on us, but they weren't quite as 'friendly as this scenario suggests. Instead of smiling and pouring it out like in the picture, Officer Jerry 'The Moose' would slam the bottles in to the sewer grates, sending glass shards all over the place. Course I grew up in Newark, NJ, which wasn't the 'friendliest' of towns at the time. Juss' sayin'...

In 1961, Studebaker was fighting for survival, and its future looked bleak. Then came the Avanti, a wild new coupe designed in just 40 days under Raymond Loewy's direction. Its strange shape shocked people, but its performance would make automotive history.
The Avanti had no traditional front grille, aircraft-style switches, a steel safety roll bar, and standard front disc brakes. Its available supercharged 289 V8 helped it reach over 170 mph at Bonneville, where it set 29 speed records.
Some people saw an ugly car. Others saw pure genius. Either way, the Avanti proved that Studebaker still had something special left. It's a shame the company couldn't survive long enough to see its dream continue.

How vindictive are these new Democrat legislators going to be when they get in? If they stay true to course, nothing of any substance will be accomplished to our benefit, and we'll one witchhunt after another come to no good. As I explained to a buddy last night, the best we can do for ourselves is keep our heads low and worry abouty ourselves and almost no one else. This shit will pass just like it does in this bullshit, never-ending cycle of animosity we laughingly call 'politics'.

Anyway, I don't think anyone from the midwest has ever even heard what that thing - that stick thing - on the left side of the steering wheel is actually for. Juss' sayin'...
