I don't know what movies or shows they're from or what they're supposed to mean. I do know that Mario Williams was a good signing. Just wanted to see if you understand this one. ?

That Aud Smell Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 I backed way the heck off this issue a while back, but I'll continue to monitor it just the same. #TheGodSquad The son of a minister, Nathan Peterman has always had a close relationship with God. His father, Chuck, founded Creekside Christian Church outside of Jacksonville. For Peterman, his father’s advice comes through the spirit by which they live. “That’s who we are, and I don’t think you have to be a pastor to do that either,” Peterman said. “That’s just our whole life. I don’t think there’s a separation between the world and the Christian world. We see the world through that lens. Every talk we have I count myself lucky to have that great advice from him that I know is coming from the best advice ever written on Earth. I’m so thankful for my dad I can’t even put it into words.” https://www.buffalobills.com/news/how-faith-and-competitive-fire-drive-nathan-peterman-to-achieve-his-ultimate-goa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with this statement is that that's simply not how acronyms work. I guarantee you that you don't pronounce laser, scuba, snafu, fubar, awol, radar, HMMWV, NATO, or any dozens of other examples by their full form pronunciations.

The games are in Athens, about 75 minutes NE of the ATL. Athens is a great college town. All football weekends are busy, but really fun. I'd recommend staying in Athens if you can get a room at a decent price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
