Please never ask me hockey questions
I hate hockey. Actually, I don't hate it. More correctly I don't follow it at all.

What I hate is explaining that my username as nothing whatsoever to do with the New Jersey Devils. Since there is no hockey this year (strike by the NHL players or lockout, whatever you prefer), hopefully no one will congratulate me if the Devils win the cup or razz me if they get eliminated. Thank God!

It has to do with the real Jersey Devil - http://www.elktownship.com/myth.html So, no hockey questions, please!

5. Sure, anything but hockey
umm, maybe you should include the Mets too since they really are not a sports team.

11. Woowoo, sure you do, probably also a Patriots fan
I don't blame you though since rooting for the Mets is like drinking a 10 year old beer.

14. Ah, common ground
Warner looked like horseshit last week. We were screaming "Eli, Eli" but Coughlin wouldn't listen, dammit.

12. Congrats from a Yankee fan
who is still somewhat shellshocked. Now that the Curse of the Bambino is dead does this mean I can't wear my "Boston Sucks" shirt to the games?
