Tea...

[lineslinger]

One thing I like about the Tea Party is how loosely knit it is. They are in the early stages of a true movement which does have the established types looking over their shoulder.
The Republicans are looking to absorb them fearing if they don't it is going to hurt them in the '012 elections. I hope they can manage to stay true to their motivations and remain independent, with the middle finger pointed directly at DC.

Same La Salle I had in mind. I was thinking back to a state high school football playoff where a certain St. Louis team got their a$$ handed to them from one La Salle team from the KC area.

Buzz, wow, they didn't boot you.
I saw a couple of the "tough guys" in HS try and swing down on a teacher. One was a geography professor who happened to be a retired Marine Corps DI...guess who came back to class looking like WWF refugee.

The other recollection is another "tough guy" pulled back on the Phys. Ed. teacher who was a retired lineman from the Cleveland Browns. We could hear somebody getting bounced off the locker room lockers for the next ten minutes.
