The Wife Of An NFL Quarterback Left An AR-15 In A Rental Car

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/ryan-tannehill-lauren-tannehill-ar15-rental-car


Every day, items are left behind in rental cars — sunglasses, cell phones, military-style rifles.

Just ask Lauren Tannehill, the supermodel wife of Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill.

She rented a white Nissan Rogue earlier this month at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport before returning it to the company two hours later in exchange for a different vehicle. There was just one problem: she forgot to grab her AR-15.

Maybe she was planning to take in a movie later that day?

I don't want to have to deal with the added responsibility that it is secure & safe at all times. I also forget things all the time like keys.

I remember when I left an M-16 in a latrine for just a couple minutes and I nearly died from the panic as I hurried back there to retrieve it.

5. Union General McClellan forgot about a regiment during the Civil War.

He had ordered his army to retreat one night but for some reason, one regiment didn't get the message. When those soldiers woke the next morning, all they saw were Confederates where there used to be fellow Union troops the day before. Fortunately for the regiment, the Confederates were surprised to see a union regiment still in position and that gave time for the Yanks to haul ass north to where they figured the rest of the army had gone.

The first thing he forgot was what an army is used for in time of war.


Too bad Sherman wasn't in charge from the beginning, Richmond would have been in ruins inside of the first three months.

Before this season, the Dolphins' worst year was 1969, when Bob Griese got it 43 times.
