Jaguars 31 - Steelers 29!
Of no particular consequence anyway.

Cricket anybody?
Skittles & Beer?
Watching grass grow?
Pele, Beckenbauer and Chinaglia played their last games with the Cosmos.
I think that I would like to have a mansion in both Wolfhall and Ludgershall. I am a big fan of wolfs and ludgers.
Looks like the Rushey Plattians are almost ready to pave the cow paths.
All those peoples are driving on the wrong side of the road! No wonder why the smokies are having a good time.

This doesn't mean that your explanation is wrong. This is simply current usage, and understanding - vernacular.
Present!
And GO, if we beat the Jags and go up to New England just you wait cause I've got something planned for you.
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! If the rabbit didn't stop to....
Listen, you delinquent, is the Klingon going to be able to see the Super Bowl UP there in Sweden?
Yup! American 'football'. Just great! Scantily clad cheerleaders. Dancing in the end zone. Mayhem at each play. Prayer sessions on the sidelines. Lots of fights. Broken bones.
Just for the fun of it, EX:
Ex-dividend (without the dividend).
Ex-rights (ditto).
Ex-interest (ditto).
Ex-warrants (ditto).
Ex Augustus (ditto).
But, I will alert the Wall Street Journal that they should use the Latin, sine, in their English language paper!
You might get lucky this year. A game was played in England. The League wants to get other nations interested. Methinks that the Mummy and the G-Man have a better handle on this. Have to check out their 'Football Discussion@ HPT. I'll try to find out.
Yup! Please translate into Yank Speak when you have lots of time on your hands and foots:
Swindon in days of yore - When knights were bold, and toilets weren't invented ...?
trading estate = Something like a 'stock market'?
Allotment gardens =
housing estate = a place for the very rich?
cycle track =
goods station = Where highway smokies hang out?
Okus = "Oklahoma!, where the wind runs right behind the rain..."?
DoLl, no sushi? The temp is going to be sub-zero here in America. I am going to have lots of fried cugootz tonight. Eat your hearts out! Brits are probably eating blood pudding, blanc mange, toad in a hole, or fish & chips.
Any of you lot know what fried cugootz is?
Now look here you Brits!, I know that we Yanks are gullible, but you're putting me on! We have snow in such places as georgia, florida, and texass, and yes, kali4kneeya - and they are all in the tropics!
GPM, tell Grandpa to get canoes next time!
I guess that life is made easier for the Klingon and Melvadius types when they find a building with a corner stone with a date and/or a name on it. Ditto, for an object.
Thanks guys.
P.S.
Oh!, tyrant of the posts, I can't help this, it's in my DNA: And for many English speakers, English is not their first language!
Accountants and auditors are like that. Did he have ink stains on his cuffs? He'll probably catch you for all the stuff you nicked.
Aside from making me 'recent', what will you resolve for a groat or a stoat?
You want snow? Ship off to Buffalo, N.Y. Aside from the Lake Erie effect, they like it so much that they import it by the gondola full.

The two modern books I mentioned might help you with your 'bias' problem, or perhaps account for it.
