As we get closer to the 2016 election year, US citizens must remember that they cannot trust Hillary Clinton to create American jobs. The last time she had a meaningful job, she outsourced it to Monica Lewinsky. ...

Maybe Brady will give in like the Patriots, but I doubt that happening.

This will never see the courts. Courts are for criminal and/or civil matters. This is a violation of NFL rules, not a criminal or civil matter. The only way this could end up going to court (IMHO) is if Brady sued the NFL for something.
Then it would go to court.

And Brady and the Players Union are already prepared to sue. Same thing that's happened in most of Goodell's recent major punishments. And remember the one time Goodell picked someone else to handle the appeal in Tagliabue, he also was chastised in the decision.
Goodell has a poorer record right now than the Raiders.

Guy walks into a Muslim Book shop and asks for a book on stopping immigration.
The Muslin shopkeeper says, “F*ck Off, Get Out and Don’t come back”
The bloke says, “Yes, that’s the one"......

Disconnected my home alarm.
In an effort to save money and feel more secure in my home I have taken the following actions…
I've disconnected my home alarm system and de-registered from the Neighborhood Security Watch, (NSW). I've got two Pakistani flags raised in the front yard, one at each corner, and the black flag of ISIS in the center.
The local police, sheriff, FBI, CIA, NSA, Homeland Security, Secret Service and other agencies are all watching the house 24/7...
I've never felt safer and I am saving $49.95 a month...
Ted

Top 8 Morons Of 2014
1. *WILL THE REAL DUMMY PLEASE STAND UP?*
AT&T fired President John Walter after nine months, saying he lacked
intellectual leadership. He received a $26 million severance package.
Perhaps it's not Walter who's lacking intelligence.
2. *WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR
FRIENDS:*
Police in Oakland , CA spent two hours attempting to subdue a gunman
who had barricaded himself inside his home. After firing ten tear gas
canisters, officers discovered that the man was standing beside them
in the police line, shouting, 'Please come out and give yourself up.'
3. *WHAT WAS PLAN B?*
An Illinois man, pretending to have a gun, kidnapped a motorist and
forced him to drive to two different automated teller machines, wherein the
kidnapper proceeded to withdraw money from his own bank accounts.
4. *THE GETAWAY!*
A man walked into a Topeka , Kansas Kwik Stop and asked for all the money
in the cash drawer. Apparently, the take was too small, so he tied up the
store clerk and worked the counter himself for three hours until
police showed up
and grabbed him.
5. *DID I SAY THAT?*
Police in Los Angeles had good luck with a robbery suspect who just couldn't
control himself during a lineup. When detectives asked each man in the lineup to repeat the words: 'Give me all your money or I'll shoot', the man shouted,
'that's not what I said!'
6. *ARE WE COMMUNICATING?*
A man spoke frantically into the phone: 'My wife is pregnant and her
contractions are only two minutes apart'. 'Is this her first child?' the doctor
asked. 'No!' the man shouted, 'This is her husband!'
7. *NOT THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHED!*
In Modesto, CA, Steven Richard King was arrested for trying to hold up a
Bank of America branch without a weapon. King used a thumb and a finger to simulate a gun. Unfortunately, he failed to keep his hand in his
pocket. (hellooooooo)!
8. *THE GRAND FINALE!*
Last summer, down on Lake Isabella, located in the high desert, an hour east of
Bakersfield, CA, some folks, new to boating, were having a problem. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't get their brand new 22 foot boat,
going. It was very sluggish in almost every maneuver,no matter how much power they applied.
After about an hour of trying to make it go, they putted into a nearby marina,
thinking someone there may be able to tell them what was wrong. A thorough topside check revealed everything in perfect working condition. The engine ran fine, the out-drive went up and down, and the propeller was the correct size and
pitch. So, one of the marina guys jumped in the water to check underneath. He came up choking on water, he was
laughing so hard. Under the boat, still strapped securely in place, was the trailer!
*Now remember these are all true stories and these people vote and have children!*

From now on, I'll believe in The Prophet Muhammad .....
I decided to go to the local Mosque for the first time, to see what it was all about.
I sat down and the Imam came up to me, laid his hands on my hand and said:
"By the will of Allah the All Mighty, and the Prophet Muhammad, you will walk today."
I told him I was not paralyzed.
He came back and laid his hands on me and repeated the same thing.
Once again, I told him there is nothing wrong with me.
After the prayers, I stepped outside - and bugger me - my car was gone!

Three friends from the local congregation were asked, "When you're in your casket, and friends and congregation members are mourning over you, what would you like them to say?"
Artie said, "I would like them to say I was a wonderful husband, a fine spiritual leader, and a great family man."
Eugene commented, "I would like them to say I was a wonderful teacher and servant of God who made a huge difference in people's lives.."
Al said, "I'd like them to say, 'Look, he's moving!'"

Smith climbs to the top of Mt. Sinai to get close enough to talk to God.
Looking up, he asks the Lord. "God, what does a million years mean to you?"
The Lord replies, "A minute."
Smith asks, "And what does a million dollars mean to you?"
The Lord replies, "A penny."
Smith asks, "Can I have a penny?"
The Lord replies, "In a minute."
