SAD...but true!

Oh, Joe! It hurts so bad...my Ravens (your former Browns) with a misery index of 19.5 (should be about 30) and my Orioles with 7 straight loosing seasons under ambulance chasing lawyer/owner Peter Angelos. I am a season ticket holder to each and don't know how much more I can take!

I know! I'll go root for the Baltimore Bullets! Oh, that's right, they moved to Washington years ago. OK, how about University of Maryland.....oh, two straight loosing seasons in football and just got slaughtered by Duke in basketball last night. OK, there's always Navy! They have had four straight bowl appearances! Can't beat Notre dame though.

Fortunately for me, during these times I have learned to adapt into a "generic sportsfan mode". Where I just watch ALL the teams and enjoy watching good games. This weekend should be an awesome weekend for the NFL. Four really exciting matchups.

But I do feel your pain. ...And it sucks!

Yep, Joe, and I forgot to say how much I enjoy watching my son in soccer goal or my daughter playing third base for her high school softball team.

I am interested in seeing what the Seahawks will do. We don't see too much of them in this part of the country. I think the Redskins will be going home for the rest of the winter.
