      - seems like this should be expressed in terms of a limit. -- nm - Reagen Oct 12, 21:21 4

        You don't often see people pleased to be called Lafarrow-like. -- nm - David Oct 12, 21:14
- yeah I wasnt expecting such a high scoring game lol. -- nm - Stacy Oct 12, 20:54 2
  - Now if you started Jamal Lewis and started no defense you would have beat me. -- nm - Redmond Oct 12, 20:57 1
