Be Careful What You Wish For

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

This week, I've been doing my best to keep my head down and eyes on my proverbial paper because I don't want to think too much about the game between the Chargers and Patriots on Sunday. If I do, I'll get too anxious because I hate the Patriots. They're unlikeable ...
