"Look, I will take a couple snarling pit bulls over the unknowns of swamp water any day of the week." "I could straighten him out." "I think you really should wait until your registration clears." "We're just gonna talk football." "We'll leave finance out of it." "Spencer, this is a dangerously gray area."
