For College Football Fans A Little Terrorism Reality

Not thrilled how your team did tonight. Should Florida have beat Tennessee more? Should LSU have been more dominant against ULL. Is USC defeat the most horrible thing ever?

Let us all meet reality

quote:
Federal agents arrested Najibullah Zazi and his 53-year-old father, Wali Mohammed Zazi, in connection with an investigation into an alleged al Qaeda plot at their home shortly before 10pm Saturday night in Aurora, Colorado.....

quote:
Zazi, who initially denied any ties to al Qaeda, later admitted connections to the terror group and told FBI interrogators he had received explos vies training at a terror camp in Pakistan. ..........

quote:
computer belonging to Zazi showed he had researched baseball and football stadiums .....
quote:
The officials said text messages sent by Zazi suggest the plot was nearing the attack phase. One message said the "wedding cake is ready," which authorities say may have been code to indicate the attack was ready. Al Qaeda operatives have frequently used references to weddings to disguise planned terror attacks......

We often take out security for granted. At the next College Game we go too perhaps we should thanking the numerous security that keeps us safe a tad more.

I always try to thank the officials at the games. They're working so that the rest of us can have a good time. They don't get to enjoy the game like the rest of us. It's a sacrifice.

Well, terrorism doesn’t stop on our account, because we have been so careful after 9-11, does not mean our current government understands the implications of these US haters. Who will ever understand hot great heir hate is for us and our freedom???
