Some of these guys wear beards to make them look intimidating, but they don't look so tough when they have to deliver the ball. Their abilities and their attitudes don't back up their beards.

people brooklyn littles
In Brooklyn, it was as though you were in your own little bubble. You were all part of one big, but very close family, and the Dodgers were the main topic of everybody's conversations and you could sense the affection people had for you. I don't know that such a thing exists anymore.
determination men thinking
If you envy me whatever modicom of success that I enjoy, you must also envy me my time, my labour, my finance, my anxiety, my frustration and my determination.

His credibility is zilch, virtually nil.

You know what animals exist in the desert. He's going to his indigenous natural habitat. What better place for night crawlers?

I'll pay them right after it snows in Panama. Let Eleta pay them if he feels so strongly about it.
