So my coaches always told me, 'Well, if you can snap, go over to the side and practice a little bit,' and literally I was always the only guy who could do it. So I did it in pee wee, midget, junior high school, high school, college. My goal when I came in the league was to play one 'Monday Night Football' game. Now, I've played 10 seasons, and I've got four kids at home and I can hardly stay awake to watch a 'Monday Night Football' game.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/34738</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I was the one responsible for throwing away two points.

You do get into situations where you think, 'What should I do? Shouldn't I intervene? Shouldn't I do something?' I think if you get to that point you have to make a decision. I've said to people, if you feel it's wrong just being a reporter and you can't do enough, well it's time to become an aid worker and train to be someone who really knows what to do. No good standing around snapping a notebook.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/39533</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[As for evolution, I have a hard time believing that billions of years ago two protozoan bumped into each other ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43858]]></link><description><![CDATA[As for evolution, I have a hard time believing that billions of years ago two protozoan bumped into each other under a volcanic cesspool and evolved into Cindy Crawford.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43858</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[We call a fig a fig, and a skiff a skiff. [Lat., Ficum vocamus ficum, et scapham scapham.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43648]]></link><description><![CDATA[We call a fig a fig, and a skiff a skiff. [Lat., Ficum vocamus ficum, et scapham scapham.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/43648</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There's nothing remarkable about it.
