I hate

when newspapers make glaring errors, like spelling names wrong!

However, $25,000 = 200,000 lbs. of food – I would definitely call that a success!

robert garza is a death row inmate...

and i have yet to see, and i just looked, another article referring to him as “robert”… and actually, robert is not short for roberto, it’s the english version of the word…

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.

who cares

chill out, i’m certain whoever edited that article doesn’t care and they are getting paid for it.

They should care.

And I meant papers in general, not just this one. You’d be shocked at all the errors you can find if you try…

On that Garza article

Look at the very top, the headline on the top bar of your browser they spelled “lineman” and “hosts” wrong. Newspaper fail.

Yeah,

I saw that too… lame.

It's being reported on the radio that Plaxico will miss the entire season.

Thank god… now we can end all that crap talk.

I read on a yahoo report yesterday

that inside sources were saying that Plax would likely be suspended indefinitely.

Here’s the link.

Is this what the radio is saying, or is there more concrete stuff?

So glad

that in our country a person can kill (no matter the circumstances) a person inadvertently and be in jail for no longer than a lunar cycle, while another person inadvertently shoots himself and may go away for 3 years.

One guy has done everything possible to make amends. The other pleaded not guilty and to my knowledge, hasn’t apologized.

I’m not asking Plax to apologize. I honestly don’t care if he does or not. The court of public opinion, wants people to right their wrongs. And so does the real system.

You plead guilty and make amends, your given a lesser sentence.

You plead not guilty, you could walk or you could receive max sentencing.
