    My family lived in that area marked +21% from 1954 to 2008. Back in the 1960s, there still empty lots being filled with new homes throughout that region. The area with the most rot and removal of...

    The seller holds the title and collects payments. If the buyer gets behind on payments, then the seller repossesses the property. IOW, the seller is "the bank".

    In the game against the Broncos, the Colts offensive line was making a perfect U shaped pocket on most of the attempts. And they ran it down the Broncos throat to ice the game.

    Yes, early in the game, Mathis made a hit that liberated the receiver from the ball, which the receiver was able to recover. But is is that kind of hit that makes a receiver "think".

    Luck does have all the tools. And it makes me smile that Danny Boy Snyder wasted a ton of picks rolling the die on RGIII while the Colts got the Luck of the draw.

    Again, we agree.

    IMO, soft hands are harder to "learn" than blocking technique. And it is not like our primary QB is known for throwing easy to catch balls.

    A very big factor was Mathis going out in the first half with a thigh injury. Vaughn got burned for the 73 yard TD that lit a fire of hope.

    Before that injury, Dallas was being shut down.
