Right or Wrong
I’ve always had a difficult time dealing with false accusations. I don’t know anyone who wouldn’t, really. This comes form an innate desire for justice.

Are these your cleats?
If we were the children of Israel when Moses left to talk with God, I imagine we would have made a golden football or goal post instead of a calf. At least when I log on to Facebook that?s the impression I get. Do I like football? Absolutely! Do I post football comments on social media? Sure, sometimes. So does… Read more →
