"The clip begins by calling Deadpool “the movie you had to be 17 to see, but 16 to fully appreciate” and mocking the character’s first appearance in X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Then Deadpool shows up. Though he agrees that the movie could’ve ended in 20 minutes if he had just talked to Vanessa (Morena Baccarin) about his problems, he takes umbrage with the narrator’s assertion that the movie has a “by-the-numbers revenge plot we’ve seen a million times before.”

* My reaction was shocked about what they did to the people and it was fair for the them to get that charge.

What should happen to the people who potentially knew that they were poisoning the people of Flint (including a lot of children)?
*I think that they should get executed or thrown in jail for ever for what they did.
If it expands to the governor or even further, should those people be held accountable the same as the rest of the accused city leaders?
* I think that they shouldn't t get the big of a punishment because the city leaders are leaders and should've done something about it but they shouldn't be punished because it isn't their fault.

Good versus evil. Do they truly exist? Are there gray areas? Do good people do bad things?

     Good versus Evil well we all know the classic super hero's and their rivals and a s a kid we thought all that junk was real if super hero's really did exist then why are they not out there saving the world like in the movies and if they did exist then why do we never hear about them saving peoples life's or fighting off the bad guys. Super hero's are just made up characters for little kids to believe that is real and that  is what is out side every part of the day saving us from evil. Super hero's and villain's are just for people who want to escape the real and dream of a better place where there Is someone there to protect them.
     Another thing about good vs. evil is one of the precepts of the Zoroastrian Faith, first enshrined by Zoroastrian over about 3000 years ago. It is also one of the most common conventional themes and is sometimes considered to be a universal part of the way we think there are many conflicts one of them being the battle individuals or ideologies one side is god and the other is evil , Another variation is the inner struggle with yourself or characters. Its a bad thing to over simplify to believe that some people are innately good while others are preferred to as evil or bad its misunderstood concepts underprins the justice system of many places bad people commit crimes and since they are super bad they should be locked away so that they cant harm us with their evil behavior This concept has also fuelled many wars and conflicts in history and also in present days I think that good and evil do exist but not in they way others mite peruse it.
     yes good things happen to good people I would know this because my grandpa was a good person he loved to serve his county and he loved every one and very thing on this earth and he died of a heart attack two years ago and it was the saddest thing ever I also think that it happen because god wanted  him to help him in the sky to fight against the evil up there but it can also be that bad people low key do good tings but in a wrong way and that good people do bad things but no one knows but most people behave dishonestly sometimes and frequently  this may have more to do with the situation and how people view their own unethical behavior than character. In a series of experiments that people have to figure this out it is less likely to behave unethically relative to those who did not. these participants also were less likely to endorse offtered short-term benefits

Noil arrested in traffic stop 

Receiver charged with not having a driver’s license. 

By Suzanne Halliburton shalliburton@statesman.  com  

   Texas A&M receiver Speedy Noil was arrested late last week in College Station for not having a driver’s license. 

   The arrest happened in the early hours Friday morning before Noil played in A&M’s Friday Night Lights Scrimmage. 

   A&M officials issued a statement Monday saying “athletics was made aware of the arrest of Speedy Noil for driving without a license.” 

   Noil, who was a five-star prospect when he signed two years ago, has stayed in trouble with coach Kevin Sumlin. 

   He was suspended twice last season, once for the Western Carolina game and then for Music City Bowl, which A&M lost 27-21 to Louisville. 

   This time a year ago, Sumlin told the media that Noil “had some things he had to complete,” which was why he wasn’t working out during spring practices. Sumlin allowed him to return to the team after spring practice was finished. 

   Noil led the Aggies in all-purpose yards in 2014, his freshman season. He was named to the SEC all-freshman team and earned all-conference honorable mention. Last summer, Noil was selected to the preseason All-SEC first team. 

   Football: Oklahoma transfer Trevor Knight could have the edge at quarterback for Texas A&M this fall. 

   At least that’s how it appears after the Aggies’ scrimmage Friday night at Kyle Field. 

   Knight was the quarterback for the first two series, although he played with both the first and second teams. 

   A&M didn’t send out official statistics from the scrimmage, but the folks at Tex  ags.com   kept a running play log. These unofficial stats had Knight completing 7 of his 15 attempts for 132 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions. He also carried the ball twice for 27 yards. 

   Meanwhile, Jake Hubenak also split time with the first-and second-team offenses. The former Georgetown High standout was 12 of 20 for 137 yards with no touchdowns or picks. He also had three carries for 53 yards. 

   Knight, who was beaten out by Baker Mayfield at Oklahoma, arrived in College Station in January. Hubenak, a transfer from Blinn College for last season, was mainly the third-string quarterback in the fall. Hubenak got the nod to start A&M’s bowl game against Louisville after the transfers of Kyle Allen and Kyler Murray. 

   Basketball: SFA hired A&M assistant Kyle Keller as its next head basketball coach. The school announced the hire Monday. He’ll replace Brad Underwood, who took over at Oklahoma State last month. 

   Keller is the second assistant to leave the program after A&M won the SEC regular season championship and reached the NCAA Sweet 16. Rick Stansbury was hired by Western Kentucky to be its next head coach. 

   Keller has been at A&M for five seasons. 

   Track and field: For the second straight year, the Texas A&M men’s team was named the most outstanding university squad at last weekend’s Texas Relays at Mike A. Meyers Stadium at UT. 

   The award was selected by the media who covered the meet. It’s the sixth time the Aggies have won the honor since 2009 and ninth time overall. 

   Texas A&M won four men’s relay titles. Their times in the 4x200 and 4x800 currently are the top times in the country.

• During every game there must be at leaf 11 players on each team  the goalkeeper is included in the 11-players total if one team doesn't have 11 by time the match starts they have to forfeit the game.

• side goal- where you kick it in the goal at a side corner.
• fumbal-when a mother play is tripped or has fallen by another player.

7. He’s hit it too well-

If you connect with a cross ‘too well’ it means you have struck the ball cleanly. Used invariably after a chance is missed or more commonly saved by a goalkeeper, the thinking is if the attacking player scuffs or doesn’t connect with the ball as well, it would take a different direction and maybe go in. Funny, you don’t usually hear ‘he’s not hit it well enough’.
