I think Elway told the defense not to show up. Conspiracy.

11 min left in 3rd. 28 minutes for Tebow to score 5 TDs.

I'm saying it could happen.

True...and true... Also Denver's offensive line isn't doing its job, but the Patriot's line has given Brady all kinds of time...and he can thread the needle.

Did they just say tebow has rushed for 666 yards on the season?

What if after the Steelers game he had rushed for 666 yards and thrown for 316. The confusion.

Speaking of confusion... kicking a FG?

Okay, 32 points in 17:14, what a miracle finish this will be.

Extra SCs required because of weather or whatever, get premium pay.

I agree. At JetBlue when they have an irop and need extra SC guys they put out a request for RSA (reserve supplementation something) days. You bid for them and if you get one you are on SC for the day and get 4:30 pay or the greater of what you fly if they call you. If they don't call you then you still get the 4:30. Local guys make lots of $$$ with those days.

That they are. Looks like the new LOA made reserve more senior.

Note I added most.

I had to look it up but basically the southern boundary runs from the Lincoln Memorial to the west side of Kutz Bridge over that tidal basin then east to a direction you'd never be and of course north. The West Potamac park peninsula where the FDR and MLK memorials are below and outside the boundary.

Personally me, I fly so I never have to go back and figure all that ^^^^ out.

Like I said, most all.

Yeah I've seen plenty of guys that think 0.00000000000000000001 nm west of the west bank of the river is A-OK on arrivals especially for the VP/NO part of it. And that's measuring from the center of the roll axis too, WTH!

Do you think that was due to the new LOA (i.e. enough people were aware it was being implemented in Feb) or was it because pilots were getting 65 hrs and having a hard time picking up time?

It's all about context, another layer if you will, as in:
"My donkey* is sick" is ok, however if the words "Mexican", "donkey", and "show" appear in the same paragraph, there may be repercussions
