But its tomorrow that rain here it is. If you look down toward the Mississippi River valley, the southern end of it, you can see there are showers here and these extend all the way up into the central plains.

Rowe says hes taller than the suspect and says he can prove that he wasnt in oregon at the time. He was in kansas. Q look at that face. Can that face commit a crime . Laura oh, my gosh. Q i love rowe. Laura hes hilarious. He does a great job. I dont think needs to rob any banks or do any kind of crime. Q im sure hes financially set. Laura i think hes in a pretty good spot. But that does look like him. Q speaking of lookalikes check out this one. Who does this look like to you . Im talking about the lady right now. If you said taylor swift, you would be wrong. Thats actually somebodys grandmother. Now, this reddit user shared an old pic last week and the pictures of her grandmother and she admits, you know, it does look like the pop star.

Check out her reaction. [laughter] q she was speechless when lukes father. Though. Luckily her dad was recording Empire Strikes back came out 35 years before way before she was even thought of. I think that might have been my reaction, too. We will see you tomorrow. I am sam rutigliano, former head coach of the cleveland browns. Wisdom is the daughter of experience. The browns are once again ignoring the past and writing the same script. They must analyze the effects of past decisions and engage a different model. Sashi brown has no experience, yet he has been given the title of director of Football Operations with the final say over the roster and a role in interviewing coaching candidates. Hiring the coach first will prevent the team from getting the most qualified general manager candidates. Look at the history and the analytics of halloffamer bill polian, gm and architect of indianapolis Super Bowl Teams led by peyton manning. Fourtime Super Bowl Team which was anchored by halloffamer jim kelly. Another example is halloffame gm ron wolf, architect of oakland and green bays title teams which were anchored by mvps jim plunkett and brett favre. The browns must have a field of dreams vision. If you build it, he will come. Talents like jon gruden, who is an ohio guy and super bowl coach, or bill cowher, who played for the browns and is also a super bowl coach, could be enticed to cleveland if power brokers like polian or wolf were here. New england, green bay, denver the list goes on for franchises that rely on tried and true nfl analytics to win. This is the direction we should go hire the general manager, who then hires a director of player personnel and the two of them hire the head coach. Lets find experienced decision thank you.
