I'm between average to very good in pretty much every position except defensive midfielder. Haven't got a clue how to play there.

I assume that is a sports reference. It probably makes perfect sense in the right context.

All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.

Baseball was my best sport. Hockey the most fun

Football is best and most fun, cricket is a (mostly) highly enjoyable afternoon in a field. Rugby is good for the watching, basketball was enjoyable when i was good at it but I lost the ability to shoot so that's out. Tennis is kinda fun to play with mates.

Baseball always looks so drab, and there's no ice here to play hockey.

Dogs are just friendly wolves. Food for thought.

My favourite thing about dogs is that they, at least real dogs and not handbag rodents, are capable of killing you in seconds with all those teeth n' shit, but they choose not to.

Or it's just because they're dumb as shit. But the former is cooler.
