I don't know that, and neither do you. And how is it political? Shouldn't all Americans stand in respect when the national anthem is played? Not saying you have to sing, and it would be nice if you put your hand over your heart, but all Americans should stand. I don't think that belongs to a particular party. Do you think it does?

Of course if you mean fresh caught and brought to the restaurant, you would be correct.
I owned a couple of trucking companies and warehouses in NY/NJ/CA. I remember when FedEx was starting (may still be true) , back when they had competition from a company called Purolator, I would send a FedEx envelope from NY on 12th avenue, to NYC on fifth avenue, and it would go from Newark airport, to Tenn., back to Newark all within one day.

No more political than your statement that prompted the "political" response...

Some of the spectators at these games look very bundled up.

Yep, it's good to see that not, just ONE or TWO TEAMS will run away with it...
I still like my selections on post #4 of this thread...

After the antics of Megan Rapinoe, I couldn’t care or watch the USA women’s soccer team anymore.

We are doomed, we won't even make the semi's . .

Not sure about the coaching. . . men coaching women have to have a certain ability to connect,
like Anson Dorrance. . . very few have that ability

They did not look all that good this morning. Many more inspired teams playing in the Knockout Stages.

We had it split at both ends with a block picking first (8) and an equally sized group picking tenth. (8) And 6 choosing third. 29 votes in all with the rest spread out.

I hope they do well against Sweden this weekend. Even though Sweden looked quite strong.
