Thank you both for your patient engagement and willingness to wade through dialogue, that at times, must be quite frustrating.

That is an amazing accomplishment! Congratulations!

When I first saw this story my first reaction was this looks like a case where two men are not given the benefit of the doubt because they are African-American. There may be white people in a Starbucks who have been treated similarly. This policy is impossible to enforce consistently because the employee has priorities and their's is to sell product not walk around the tables to police who is purchasing and who is not. So there is bound to be...

Congratulations!

As a Cleveland Browns fan I would not/cannot ever root for Pittsburgh, even if the whole roster was filled with Ohio State players and Woody Hayes had been the team owner. The Ravens are just plain "dead to me." Any Ohio State players over there might as well have fallen into a black hole. Having said that, I still like Ozzie Newsome, but I hope his employer loses every game.

And I'll bet she was a distraction, just the same.

Congratulations, Eric Atkins!

Ohio Dominican was at Boone County H.S. today for the signing of Ethan Haynes. It is official.

Two concussions during 2017 have people worried about his durability, esp. since he is purely a pocket passer. I think he also had a shoulder issue earlier in his career. But you are right, everyone says he is the most ready QB at this point and has the best mechanics. He should be a good one.

Congratulations to Jamie. He comes from a fine family. The last time I saw his Dad he looked like he could still play.

I don't care if it has been 40 years, colonel-fan made my day by mentioning Ozzie Newsome! One of my favorite players from the era when I went from being more than a fan to a fanatic. The great Wizzard of Oz was actually a WR in college and was switched to TE in the NFL by Cleveland Head Coach, Sam Rutigliano. Rutigliano told Ozzie he would be a good WR but if he would make the switch to TE he may be the greatest TE ever. The idea of...

Cauvey Vastine played one game on varsity for Boone County in 2017. We'll see how much he gets the ball in 2018. If I could read the coaches it seemed like they were giving him touches in the one varsity game to see how they might use him next year. That one game, Boone lined up in an I formation. That was the only occasion they used that as their primary formation in a game all year. Vastine appeared to like following the FB into the hole....

I look at that list and shake my head, not because of what schools are missing from the list, but because of the schools that are on the list. That is impressive!

Would of been fun to see the Celtics and the Cavs face-off. LeBron would have had to beat his former teammate or die trying.

Give us some names and positions.

I enjoyed everyone's comments about how they were finding the season of Lent to be meaningful to them. Thanks for sharing.

How did this young man do in the NCAA Nationals?

Thanks for reading through my lengthy post and giving it consideration.

That's fantastic!

Hellcats, Did you cull through the data and draw any conclusions?

One other possibility is that police officers don't mind being shot and killed by white suspects. I do understand that you and most African-Americans believe this. I just don't know if this perception is based on facts. If your perception of reality doesn't match the facts, then your perception is a false assumption, one that has been reinforced through the narrative being woven by the media in recent times. There are several...

Could it be anything other than the race of the two suspects? There are several factors that could be the reason. Time of day and visibility could be two factors contributing to the actions of the police. Race is another. Which factors are incidental and which are instrumental? Can you think of any factors that could be instrumental that do not involve race?

Sarcasm from TAC.

Well, I am a day late. We did have a very blessed Easter. My daughter was home for the weekend. We had a meaningful drama at a Sonrise service followed by a brunch. Then the main worship celebration. Had a late lunch and took a nap. Christ is risen!

A quick google search did not help me with the Latin above. I could figure out everything but the phrase regarding Mary. Not familiar with this tradition and curious as to what it might mean and thinking it referred to the mother of Jesus, I kept digging. Found an explanation buried in a pdf on an Ambrosian Chant In Dolci Jubilo, p. 15. It is actually referring to Mary Magdalene who was the first to see the resurrected Lord. He then...

^ your scenario is as good as any but all of it is just speculation because we really don't know what was/is happening. We've only heard third- and fourth-hand info.
