Need 1 more Gold medal to match the normal USA total of 9 since 2006. 10 Golds would equal the highest ever from Salt Lake City 2002.

:usa:
I will have to correct myself.

Chris Jackson (Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf) scored 55, 53, and 50 as a freshman. He also scored 48 twice.

Chris Jackson (aka Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf) put up 53 AT Florida in his first ever SEC road game and LSU won.

Not taking anything away from Acuff's great game.

USA won 10 gold medals in SLC in 2002 and has won 9 golds in every Winter Olympics since then.

The total number of USA medals since 2002 has ranged from a high of 37 in Vancouver 2010 to a low of 23 in Pyeongchang 2018.

Right now 7 Gold and 24 total is basically on track with 79 medals (~20%) remaining.

Looks like former Tiger Cam Johnson may have figured out his control issues. 11K and only 3 BB in 6 innings.
Another historical fact about Jesse Jackson that some of you younger folks may not know.

David Duke also ran as a Democrat.

How times have changed.

Jackson ended up a clear second in nationwide delegates to Michael Dukakis, but Dukakis selected for his VP running mate Lloyd Bentsen (of Texas - in an attempt to help secure the 29 Texas electoral votes). George H.W. Bush won Texas 56 to 43 percent and the presidency with 426 electoral votes to 111 for Dukakis.
I remember watching that live - back when SNL was funny.
Looks like Colorado will also be getting between 10 and 33 inches at the major resorts over the next few days. Finally gaining on the 38% of normal to date.
Skill / talent, experience, and confidence is a great combination to have.

Gene Hackman, Dustin Hoffman, and James Caan were his classmates at the Neighborhood Playhouse School of Theatre in NYC.

That had to be one of the most successful classes ever.

Umpire is tired of Kent St challenging his calls. Calling them Kennesaw :lol:
Nothing against the dude but Primeaux coming in seems to start these opponent comebacks way too often.

Brody Williams is a pretty common name these days. I personally know two other people with same name.

Passed just to first base side of pitcher’s head and he caught it on his knees just off second base.

Other than wildlife like ducks and gators etc, or the spin of a pitched baseball, Ben and Lyn should avoid discussing science :lol:
109 on a ball up in the zone is impressive.
Exit velocity had to be 105 plus on that one.
Jeff’s Head’s eyes and reflexes are a year older. What could go wrong?
