Intro and Rules of engagement

Hello all! For those of you who haven't been suffering through my long emails every week, I figured I should do a brief introduction. My name is Heather and prior to moving to DC, I was a lifelong resident of the great commonwealth of Massachusetts. ::stands and salutes:: As I sit at my desk at work and type this (because the sox won last night, so I'm clearly not getting anything productive done today) I look around and smile and the, almost obsessive, amount of Patriots, uh, crap for lack of better term. I have a light up mini Pats helmet on Mardi Gras beads from Vegas that a friend of mine got while she was there for her birthday, i have a giant Pats calender, a patriots tissue box, a little patriots pen caddy complete with about 12 patriots pens... two pads a patriots note paper... and a printed email from my friend Maura that says simply: WE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNN! Referring to her winning bid on two tickets to the Pats V Ravens monday night game. Does this make me obsessive? Perhaps.

The reason for this blog is because while my poor fan club members think they are getting mini-novels before each game, there is often SO much more that i have to say! So I've decided at this stage of the game, it's time to get a blog... hey, everyone's doing it right? So heretofore, I shall be putting the excess, the mental spillover if you will, here. If you read this, I can't be blamed for my violent and chronic verbal diarrhea!

Let me end this nonsense by saying I appreciate comments, both positive and negative, but here are my rules: Yankees fans, move on... LOL just kidding, HOWEVER, if you don't have anything constructive to say, and "red sox suck" or "belicheat" or any other camera-related slur do not qualify, then please don't waste my time. If you want to discuss the fact that we were busted cheating and are now handing out giant fuck you's to every single person who ran their mouth about us having cheated to get our rings every time we run the score up past 34, then so be it, but it must be constructive.

I swear like a trooper, and while I will try to keep it to a minimum, I promise nothing. If you offend easily, don't bitch to me about it, just find another post to read. While talking about offending, I can be VERY politically INcorrect... again, if you don't like it, don't read it.

If you graduated from Villanova, i don't want to talk to you... As a umass grad, I've gotten into more scraps with those a-hole fans than any other team we ever played!

Please do not send me hate mail, if you have something to say, post a comment... if you live in the DC area and want to join the fan club, then feel free to shoot me an email.

I write this for fun, and out of a deep and undying love for the Patriots... I'm not a bandwagon fan by any means. I can name all the QB's in franchise history, in order.... I can tell you every single name the stadium was ever called, I suck at fantasy football, because I refuse to have any Dolphins, Steelers, Colts or Jets on my team, in addition to traitors such as our former Kicker, and the likes... I've been a fan since I was born... I'm an October baby, and I spent my first Pats game (October 9th, Pats V Ravens, Grogan starting... we lost... such was the trend back then.. we went 7-9 that year) resting on my fathers chest... something that day rubbed off, and I've been an addict ever since. If you love the patriots as much as I do, or at least love football as much as I do, then read on, and enjoy!

And as always, GO PATS!!!
