- Yeah! I've read about 30 pages and its very readable for Glantz. Its snowing like crazy, I left work at noon and I'm going to curl up with it for awhile!

- Yeah, I heard that the new one is supposedly more "enjoyable'" in terms of digestion...Glantz work is great, but in terms of readability...Its always a hit-miss. At least the data/information is concise.

No I have not. Kai asked me the same question today. Consider getting No Retreat from VPG - it's worth your time in general.

No they're not, not Super Bowl winners. Some members of the defense need a major attitude adjustment too, especially about standards and excuses.
They are really a not very good team this year.
The Steelers used an onside kick today, and almost snatched defeat from the jaws of mediocrity too. It's a big reason why Roethlisberger could throw for 500 yards and still need the last play of the game to win, by one point.
Hold the line by Worthington games. A GREAT simple revolutionary war game, similar to Command and Colors, but uses Action Points instead of cards. You can move any unit you want with your points. (Similar to Conflict of heroes)
I'll be good and not ask my question again!
