The United States will never challenge Germany, Belgium or the Czech Republic as a national standard-bearer for beer quality, since our major brewers pump out an overwhelming quantity of nationally advertised sour soda water…yes, we mean you, Anheuser Busch, SABMiller and Coors! Yet, state by

The term “moronic” is defined as “notably stupid or lacking in good judgment.” It is frequently used as an insult.

Oregon football impresario Chip Kelly just couldn’t resist taking his skills to football’s highest level. Obviously, the Philadelphia NFL franchise owners gave Chip more than money. Methinks they’ve given him total control in hiring & firing personnel to implement his radical offense. Only New England coach Bill Belichick has tried
