Well, right, but that's why Atticus said he switched to a different church.

AFTER he signed a document saying he'd raise his kids in the faith. St. Peter is going to have words with that boy.

Ty is welcome to come back and tell me how I misunderstood "they"

And you can can explain why that is basically the procedure the NFL has been using with the K-ball for years:

Quote:

Marked with the letter “K” and the week number, the K balls are delivered to designated NFL officials at their hotel the night before, straight from the Wilson Factory. They arrive wrapped in tape marked with a “W,” preventing any pre-game tampering. This official guards it and does not allow the boxes to be opened any sooner than the arrival at the game.

Just tell them not to hit guys in the head and the concussions will stop!

Wait a second, she said he was looking good and her message was accompanied by a picture of her lying on a bed naked. What am I missing here?

If you know what God wants, and it’s different than what your employer wants, shouldn’t you, you know, quit and open your own shop?

I’m sending them to be educated by Jesuits. Substantial performance?

I assume the answer to your question is: Because the NFL specifically gave teams leeway to manipulate the balls quarterbacks use within set guidelines so that quarterbacks could use balls that were a little worn or, less or more inflated, depending on their individual tastes*, as long as they remained within a standard range set by the league. They set up a procedure where the balls would be tested 2 hours before the game to make sure teams complied with that rule.

The balls that are used for the kicking game are not to be manipulated at all, but they are still taken out of their packaging the same 2 hours before the game and, I assume, taken out to the field with the other balls. Seems pretty consistent.

The reason for the two different standards is beyond me. Maybe quarterbacks have more say with the League than kickers. Maybe there's a tremendous difference in how the football flies when it is kicked based on changes to pressure or how worn it is. Maybe the NFL wants kicking to be more consistent than passing.

In any case, your argument is still completely fucking ridiculous. Stick with everyone else and say that Goodell is punishing you guys inordinately to try to show everyone he's going to enforce league rules after the awful year he's had.

I would prefer to honor Wonk with “No faith in the moral standards of the players as a group”.
