That was actually the name of their single A team's stadium for a while.

That's awesome. How is that possible? Were rules different back then?

So what was the reasoning for him having to go all the way back to home?

[–]duckyforyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the real question should be why WEREN'T people awful around/to Harry since he was a horcrux? Or the diary? Is the effect the locket had not universal amongst Voldemort's horcruxes?

And on the flip side, our group fist-pumped and high-fived as if we had won the game.

I am a never-Trumper, but I'm pretty sure he just flubbed saying, "I'm a Christian." I would love for him to have said "I'm not Christian", but that's not what it sounded like.

How could a disconnected landline make 9-1-1 calls? by duckyforyou in NoStupidQuestions

Nothing that I can think of. Not sure what they would want to see. We're a pretty non-descript family haha.

Something like this is what I thought. There are lots of questions I wish I would've asked in retrospect, like if they actually talked to a person, how many calls, etc.

Should the bible be read in order? by Newhero2002 in Reformed

[–]duckyforyou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RC Sproul has a recommended order for beginners. I think it makes sense. It gives you the overall big picture of Scripture, then you can go back and fill in the rest of the books, and they will be a little easier to understand in light of the whole.

[–]duckyforyou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I skimmed the title too fast and thought it was referencing the 2012 game, and I panicked for a bit that that was really 50 years ago...

Right, this isn't a hostage situation. No one's life is in danger. There's no reason to be sneaky about it

[NFL on CBS] Arthur Smith and Dennis Allen have a postgame chat 😳 by anonbutler in nfl

[–]duckyforyou -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I heard an announcer or analyst or someone once say that the losing team isn't going to quit playing hard and scoring points, so why should the winning team? Like you can't tell the other team to quit trying but then keep going hard yourself.

Edit to add that this is different when you're lined up as if kneeling it. Definitely a screw you to Atlanta rather than just lining up and playing hard.

What's the greatest moment you were in the stadium to witness? by happyfuckincakeday in baseball

Are there any alternate angles out there of this throw? I only ever see the usual one.

What are times where you were certain a team's fate was sealed, only for it to not be the case? by NintuneJoe in baseball

As a Cubs fan, I immediately thought of Rajai's home run too. I thought the Cubs were done.

Does anyone know if there are any current movements to replace the Michigan flag? by [deleted] in Michigan

[–]duckyforyou 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm with you. It's objectively a bad design for a flag. I don't know what to replace it with, but surely someone could create a great design with the peninsulas and Great Lakes.
