– Texas Rangers meet with and then release a man suspected of abusing a teenage girl at a polygamist compound.
… I instantly wondered why a sports team was suddenly trying to fight crime. I 50% blame CNN for weird wording, though.
Article is here in case you wanted to read about it.
You know how us Texans are.
Whenever someone writes about the DNC, I always think of an abortion, not the Demo National Convention.
You mean it’s not just a sports team? :P
That is because you are too young to remember the Lone Ranger!
You sure it wasn’t Chuck Norris who made the collar?
Gawdamnit, B.E. beat me to it. Curses !
Abs, I think the very same thing.
Yoshi, apparently!
Maman, to remember? Was the Lone Ranger ever on while I was alive? (I totally remember the Lone Ranger, silly!)
BEE-bzzzzt, USA Today does not mention The Norris. But, no, I am not 100% certain.
Creature, got to get up pretty early in the morning to beat the Earl. (Or, stay up late. Or something.)
BE thought the same thing as I did. All I could envision was Walker and Trivette strolling up with Asst. DA Cahill by their sides. Thank you, imdb.com for the assist into my nerd-dom.
They might as well be crimefighters. They suck as a baseball team.
I think I would have thought the same thing. And I wouldn’t even have known which sport it was.
I thought the very same thing when I saw that e-mail. Ha.
Coulda been worse. Story coulda said
‘Texas Rangers make a short stop near San Angelo and make a pick up of an MVP accused of getting to first base with a minor; sect’s base hit by reporters and lawyers.
