So I learned some new things about football today.
1. When one team is ahead by 45 points they stop stopping the clock. (for timeouts and such). They did this today during Jims game when the score was 51-6
at half time.
The third quarter was actually 12 minutes long, WoW.
2. When that team is ahead by 50 points, they stop the clock and call it a game.
They did this today when their was four Minutes left in the game.
Go Seahawks!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 57-6 WHOOOOOOO
This is called a Mercy Win or some such thing. Some of the terms I heard were Mercy
Smashing and Mercy Killing.
Jim got put in with 10 minutes to go in the fourth quarter, and played the next six minutes till the end of the game. The coach called him over at one point to tell him "You got good contact, now drive the feet."
Now Jim says he feels "DANGEROUS"
Go Jim.
Technology: Failing To Live In the Moment

I love technology… One of the most tragic and understated negative effects
of technology, however, is the way it interferes with our presence in the
world....
