Insurance Company: "Correct."
You: "The storm took my roof. I'm filing my first claim."
Insurance Company: "Adjuster will be out Thursday."
You: "He was here. Photographed everything. What's the determination?"
Insurance Company: "Denied. Pre-existing wear and deterioration."
You: "The roof was six years old."
Insurance Company: "Our assessment differs from yours."
You: "So what did $136,800 buy me?"
Insurance Company: "Continuous coverage."
You: "Coverage for what?"
Insurance Company: "You're welcome to appeal. Or sue. We have four hundred attorneys and no deadline."

@OMagicDaily@ilikethisteam11 I was an intern with the Magic during this time and heard more than a few stories in the building regarding this myself. The wife on the plane and Robinson showing up at house stories were the most prevalent.
@GolfChannel@ToddLewisGC You guys need to be better. It’s obvious your host have an extra grind with Bryson. We all know he’s one of the biggest names in golf regardless of what tour he plays on and your channel and the sport benefits from him without begrudging him.
@TrumperLa@SECNetwork@LauraRutledge You’re assuming it was her choice to leave SEC nation. Anyone who knows Laura knows where her heart lies and it might not be the same as the ESPN bosses who make these choices. I have no doubt they will regret replacing her with Matt Barrie. It’s impossible to replace Laura.
