Scott said that HEAVENS football team got better, following Brians line that Heaven got a little more groovy, with Mr. Thomas now in it. Rugmuncher agreed with that. That's a touching sentiment, and I think you have got your wires crossed about Scotts response (read it again bearing in mind Brians post).
Big Al was being irreverent, admittedly, but not disrespectfully. As for Beav... pointing out the shortcomings of others, in this case, will SAVE LIVES. I think that's a good reason to stress the importance of safety belts.
I don't know American football so I don't know Mr. Thomas, but from you I see he was a good man, and I'm sorry for his tragic, though apparently possibly avoidable, death.
