Latest from PETA

In the first chapter of Genesis, verses 26 – 28, God clearly put mankind in charge of managing all wildlife He had created. Now, this does not give us any excuse to mismanage wildlife, or to abuse pets or domestic livestock. In fact, farmers, ranchers, and outdoor-sportsmen are the best conservationists on earth, because we all know that these animals represent our living and the continuation of our hunting, fishing and trapping. I say all this in preface to a list of some recent accomplishments and requests made by our well-intentioned but mislead brethren from the animals-rights activist group PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.)

After running the ball out of bounds on the kickoff, the Mustangs lined up for a 47-yard game-winning field goal attempt.
