It's official:  I'll get push-back on anything I post.  Jesus.
No you won’t.

wasn't pushing back so much as asking questions

see the "?"?
It was just the flex eagle defense aka "Desert Swarm" with the right personnel.  
The year before, they allowed 1.9 ypc (a "normal" number for great, all-time rush defenses).  
.
The 1992 Arizona team led the country in scoring D, allowing only 8.2 points per game......but went 6-5-1.  Imagine being the OC for that squad.  Fuck.  
.
But when it comes to all-time great rush defenses, the ones that come to mind, they allowed 1.5-2.4 yards per carry average.  The best of the best.  
0.9 is on another world.

Man, I've never followed golf very closely, but now apparently I follow it even less.  I only recognized maybe 5 names on that list.

Always good to see studies that confirm the obvious:

What’s the average commute time for Georgia drivers? Study ranks it among the highest – WSB-TV Channel 2 - Atlanta (wsbtv.com)

The energy department says that a Georgia driver spent an average of 28.4 minutes for a one-way commute. That is tied for seventh place with Illinois. Georgia’s commute time is also above the national average of 26.7 minutes.

The top spots from first to sixth were New York, Maryland, New Jersey, D.C., Massachusetts and California.

Force the poor to be so poor they don't have to pay taxes.

I don't know of anyone who favors that approach.  I certainly don't.

Everyone with quarterly share-holder meetings does.

I have no clue why anyone with "quarterly shareholder meetings" would want the poor to be more poor.  I think quite the opposite.  A larger market is better for most for profit corporations, I don't know of an exception.

And I could participate in 'quartery shareholder meetings' though in general, they are on an annual basis.  I keep getting asked to vote on some shareholder motions.

And I personally wish the poor were doing better, and do what I can to aid them.

An interesting thing about the "disappearing middle class" we hear about, most of those who depart it move to the upper class.
