So, I need some advice. here 's the issue.

Last season, I took a trip to Boston to see my old military buddy (that's code for, yes we dated back in the day) who lives there and is a Pats fan.  Well, being of the football conscious mind, I planned my trip right when the skins played the Pats and we went to the game.  Now, you remember this was right off the heels of spygate and the Pats were murdering every team they played.  Not as bad as they murdered us of course, worst game I had ever been to. There I am with 10 min left in the 4th quarter and I am just disgusted. Score 52-7 maybe? I started yelling go "Rockies" as it was Game 4 of the world series with the Red Sox sweeping. I know, pathetic right?

Anyone that's ever been to that stadium, I nicknamed it the Razor, knows you have to walk two miles to the parking lots, so my #28 Darrell Green jersey was getting lots of attention.  I am just done with this city and it's fans. Get my mental state yet?  Ok, well after coming home and our season ending in the playoffs, I found myself rooting against those pats every week. Willing them to lose, end of the perfecto.

So, my buddy that I stayed with, we would trade text messages after sundays, harmless right? Well, after the superbowl debacle and his team lost, I couldn't resist picking up the phone and leaving him the drunk, I am so glad your team lost,( next morning wish I could take this back) message.  Was it obnoxious? yes. Was it unsolicited? yes. Did I have to leave it? absolutely.

Bottom line, he won't talk to me anymore.  This is someone I have been friends with for 20 years. I have called, left messages, texts, emails, nothing. I did call him that next day and apologize for my rudeness.  That was four months ago. What should I do? leave him alone, he'll come around? if he doesn't , oh well?

So, another NCAA march madness is  almost over, thank god.  That is the one thing my boyfriend does not understand about me.  I love sports but I just can't get into basketball.  I try to use the rationale with him that I can watch the last 5 minutes of a  game, which can prove to be more than 20 minutes long sometimes because of the fouls and timeouts, and be totally satisfied.  If he is watching a game that is early on and the score is 4 to 8 I totally zone out.  He doesn't understand of course, and then when I don't want to watch sportscenter and prefer the NFL Network he gets upset stating there's nothing really going on in Football, it's the offseason, blah blah blah.

The draft is fast approaching, I am bummed to be missing the Fed-Ex party this year, I usually take my girls and attend it.  It's a good time and the kids love it.  Don't feel sorry for me though, I won a trip through work will still be in Jamaica. :-)  Who will Vinny and the regime of Zorn choose? I have loved the fact that our off-season has been fairly quiet, just resignings and a few low key acquisitions.  The Danny haters haven't had much to blog about lately, but I am sure they will find some fault in atleast one decision that is going to be made. LOL

I made a post about the whole "spygate" issue, that if we still had Tagliabue as the commish, would this thing have become such a circus? I think not.  I just want the whole thing overwith, one way or the other.  The fact that this Walsh won't come forward is raising some doubt as to what he has, but then again it could be so powerful that it's going rock many nfl boats. 

The pre-season schedule has been posted, already I am making plans to go to Carolina for the Saturday night matchup and catch up with some military buddies I haven't seen in awhile who have season tix.  Wahoo!

Now all I need is positive momentum going into training camp from our Fabulous Draft...wishful thinking but a girl can wish can't she? Only 4 months to go....SIGH.
