Sledman, That was a fucking lucky catch. \*\* I’ll call it lucky when you say Crissy Carter was lucky to score his touchdown considering he should have been ejected for trying to kick one of our guys in the face. It’s payback for the TJ Rubley game anyway. ---

Day 5: The recovery process begins Minnesota and Wisconsin, Rivals now, forevermore. Still one thing they both agreed on: All their votes will go to Gore. Let that not at all diminish, The hap’nings of the last weekend, The Gophers and the Vikings suffered, Losses, 'cause they can’t defend. ---

Day 6: Almost done Titletown is small they say. I guess that’s proof that less is more. A bigger town’s where Vikings play, But in _The Bowl_ they’re O and 4. ---

Thank you, Sledman. I appreciate your honorable offer. Then again, since I’ve apparently acquired a following (albeit only one person), I feel obliged to complete this marathon. In the name of brotherhood, I humbly submit the following: He picked Bush and she picked Gore and someone else picked Nader. His vote was “wasted”, hers was “lost”, and some weren’t found 'til later. As it stands we still don’t know if we’ve a prez-elect. No matter what the outcome is, I’m sure some will suspect, That votes were rigged or or ballots tossed and all that I can say, Is _we’ll be fine_ 'cause after all, this is the U S A! ---
