D-E-A-D

As you may know, I am an Eagles fan. Therefore, it was with great disappointment and sadness that I watched them lose to the Cardinals this evening. I sent out many mass text messages throughout the game, and the last one simply said, "sob."

I received four responses. Guess which one was sent by someone who is now dead to me:

1) :( Sorry for your team
2) Ouch!
3) I am sorry for your loss
4) Today is a good day.

Let us speak of him no longer.

Continuing my tradition of making bets based on my random knowledge of sports history, I had another victory Tuesday night. I forget how this came up in conversation, but all I know is that someone claimed that the Tennessee Titans changed their name as soon as they left Houston. I immediately challenged this statement, arguing that they were indeed known as the Tennessee Oilers for a short while (two seasons, it seems). After some yelling across the bar, and a visit to the team's Wikipedia page, I was vindicated. I even gave my free beer away to a guy who had agreed with me, because that's just how kind and generous I am.
