looking round online, I’ve seen a lot of people posting things like “Pats still haven’t won anything since Spygate” and, although I still think the Spygate thing was handled terribly, it seems like maybe winning 72 games (plus 4 division titles and two conference championships) in 5 seasons counts as something.

Belichick’s post-Sypgate career alone is better than 90% of coaches who have ever worked in the NFL.

resigning myself to the eventual Giants victory.

(I rooted for them in 07 due to the whole 19-0 factor, but no way this year).

I guess at least having the book out there gives me an excuse to obsessively check email for the next 9 months

Hi, I’m a person in a waiting room. I have opinions, and they’re all loud and worth sharing with everyone.

oh, I know what will make me less tense– driving 5 miles down the road so that I can pay someone to jab me in the gums with incredibly sharp tools.

I’m getting really fucking tired of finding out that everything in the old house was built and repaired incorrectly, and even more tired of having to pay for it to get fixed.

I don’t like being up until 1 AM to do work, but– final draft of new novel complete. Sending to agent now. Well, not right now. In about 10 seconds, though.
