Default save the antelope
I foolishly joined an animal rescue group last year and was assigned to protect the African Antelope. Well, last week was my first real action, and fortunately my efforts were captured on the attached video. I hope you enjoy it. This type of work is rather tiring for a man of my age, but it is most rewarding. But even so, one rescue a day is all I can handle right now.
Interested in joining?

Ummmm. LaryB, the Pats are looking for a deep threat to improve their vertical passing game. Interested? Or maybe you could chase down receivers who get past the DBs. Whatta ya think?

Mike, Belichick called Christmas eve to offer me the league minimum, but I've decided to enter next year's draft. Would love to play for the Pat's, but money talks!!!
PS. Will not sign with the Jets, will play in Canada first.

You're gonna have to change your name to Speedyb! Also, if you go jogging the cart paths, remember to keep it under 20 mph!
