The HATETHEPATRIOTS Legal Team Has Convened

Our legal team convened and has advised as follows:

Strike the Dolphin game from the record!

If not the official record then at least from your mind. We have no choice but to put it behind us or it will drive us mad and ruin the festivities for the upcoming nationally televised Charger/Patriot game. In looking for Silver Linings we have found the following:

• It's never easy to cross three time zones and win a game in the NFL (that's why the Patriots are just staying in Ca after the 49er game)
• We went across three time zones to Florida last year to play the Jag-ovs and were defeated quite handily yet turned it around following that game.
• There was a team in '94-'95 that began the season 2-3 but their loss in the 5th game was at home and they were crushed 40-8 (that San Francisco 49er team turned it around....unfortunately for the Chargers) so it could be worse.

Win our home games. Steal a couple on the road. Things will work out.

The Patriots are coming......the Patriots are coming.....and they're bringing a 3-1 record with them sans Zoolander (Thank God the Angels just won.......there's still hope!).

This game will have playoff implications, as we thought before the season began, only now it won't be for home field advantage......it'll be for a chance at the playoffs.

Yes....Jim Mora......WE SAID IT.... "Playoffs".


Get your mind off of this last loss by visiting "The Good Links" section in the sidebar. You will see a link for another blog: Zino's Top 10

Zino is a XX1090 Scott and BR listener who does a funny top ten list each week. Check out his blog where he posts the lists as well as the audio clip from the radio show. It took me awhile to find his blog because I was convinced that he spelled his name with an "E" (Zeno) like the philosopher. There are a couple of things I'll never forget from my first philosophy class, things I carry with me today. One thing being, my professor standing before his students readying for the day's lesson on paradoxes, specifically those of motion and the following phrase uttered:

"Zeno: A really neat guy"

Not very profound but memorable, for who describes a 2500 year old dead philosopher as neat? My cynical, atheist espousing college philosophy professor, that's who! Incidentally, I still recall the lesson based on that one curious phrase.....Anyway, check out ZINO's blog, and more importantly, click the audio link....you will laugh...promise! We can only hope, now, for a Patriot themed Top 10 list this week.

Also click the link in the sidebar for "Missing Rings" featuring the '81 Chargers. As a wee lad growing up in Chicago as a Bear fan I will tell you that the earliest game I can recall is.....the January 1982 Charger/Dolphin playoff game featuring the "Hook & Ladder" (there weren't too many Bear games of note prior to 1984 and my birth). They are airing the show on the NFL Network but if you would like to read about it and watch a clip with commentary about the Hook & Ladder, it's highly recommended.

The "Countdown" reads less than 7 Days.....The propaganda campaign will commence tomorrow.....

Mr. Durden IS building an army.....
