Being Canadian, me and my brother are both hockey fans. Alas, we're also both suffering Bengals fans. He was regaling me with a story about how the other day he mentioned to his friends that he'd be so happy the day Mike Brown died. When someone else said, "that's awful!," another friend said "hey, it worked for the Chicago Blackhawks!"

WhoDeyRevolution caught on to this idea a few days later: http://whodeyrevolution.typepad.com/whodeyrevolution/2008/09/nfl-team-adopts.html#more

Perhaps we could start a Mike Brown Death Pool. Throw in $10.00 each and pick a date. Anyone? Beuhler?

The joy of Mikey passing would only be unmitigated if Katie became another Rocky Wirtz. Could we perhaps track down her e-mail address and give her the story?.....

Death pool? You would all loose because he is immortal.....that is so long as he stays out of the sun light.

One of these days, its gonna happen!

We know what you're thinking, Swamp. You just can't wait to renew your Sunday Ticket...

I WANT to...but I won't until he either dies, or hires a GM and bows out of having anything to do with managing the team. Since the latter won't ever happen, can only wait around for the former. And I will then be 1st in line to renew!!!

Meanwhile, I actually enjoyed myself after 12 noon the last two Sundays... An experience last felt during most of the 2005 season. Rarely before, and rarely since.
