New Here

Hello Everybody......

I'd figured I'd post this and intro myself. My name is Angus and Im a 30 year old dude, who works as a firefighter in a Large Northeastern city...Ive lurked here for a loooong time and figured I would take the plunge. Been a Dem all my life, being Irish from South Boston (Southie) I guess I didnt have much a choice. I spent 4 years in the US Marine Corps and spent sometime overseas. Im a huuuuuuuge baseball fan, Go Red Sox and love BC hockey!!! Hope to see all of you around...Slainte!!

I love and appreciate what you guys do in fighting fires (and saving people's lives). I, too, am a huuuuuuuge baseball fan, though my team is the Seattle Mariners (yeah, what can I say, but I love my guys).

18. I did root for them when they went to the WS.

But I have to say, I'm not too fond of the fans who come to Safeco Field. Sorry, but they are rather rude to the home crowd. We did manage to quiet them down, though. :evilgrin:

30. Tuna needs to pull it thru this year...

'Boys are in the playoffs but need to make a serious run. I'm sure he'd want to leave on top. Otherwise Jerry Jones will probably pick a former sooner coach (yuck!).

38. Let's hope...

Good chance of it...

Chicago's QBack play is effy.
New Orleans floundered last game.
Dallas looked good in their last outing.

It's all about how you finish the season.
