Yes, but the point is not that every single Man U fan is a Brit. The point is that the people holding up the "Love Man U - Hate the Glazers" sign were in Man U stadium and it's a fairly good bet that most folks in that Stadium were Brits. Is it more reasonable to think that French Man U fans Chunneled over with their "I hate Glazer" sign and hung it up?

I mean - it's not unreasonable to suggest that Yankee fans in Yankee stadium are more than likely American, despite the fact that there are Yankee fans all over the world....

This assumed that New Yorkers are Americans. As far as I can tell, they don't even speak English.

Ok, back on topic!
This is proving to be a crappy season for my Colts so far! Peyton's surgery is gonna have him out for too long. :(

Yep, but that's what you get in any team sport when you build a team around one guy, however good he is. They should have given Painter or another backup some game time, especially in '09 when they were way ahead of the rest.

Did I mention that I had several classes with Drew Brees when I was at Purdue?

The Pope was today knocked down at the start of Christmas mass by a woman who hopped over the barriers. The woman was said to be, "Mentally unstable."

Which is probably why she went unnoticed among a crowd of Christians.
