Night Runner

Just interesting. I think most schools have some kind of story, much like this. Logan is another Pullman.

Good story. The stories of Loggers of the Northwest are so different and yet so similar to the ones you tell. (From our perspective what you call mountains are hills out here, but I digress.)

Your point is well taken. But being old and decrepit myself, calling me a man of great stature doesn't make it so. The young mountain ranges of the West speak for themselves.

As I said, so different and so much the same.

This argument is more ludicrous than the National Football Championship.

I will always remember "Red Lightning"...FSU ballboy from 2013-15....he is probably the only ball boy that the pro's ever went after...Atlanta came in and swooped him away for their ball boy.

That is hilarious! But the block at 0:13 was nasty, someone earned this scholarship with that one. :shock:
They’re either going to run the ball here or their going to pass it.

The fewer rules a coach has, the fewer rules there are for players to break.

See, well ya see, the thing is, he should have caught that ball. But the ball is bigger than his hands.
