I'm mister white christmas... I'm mister SNOW!


Oh hell yes did I leave Vermont at a good time or what???
The National Weather Service said a foot of snow was possible in the mountains of northern New England, with the potential for 20 inches in northern Maine. Upstate New York's central Adirondacks and Lake George region could see 12 inches of snow.
Its just gone from bad to worse up there it seems, with 11 deaths already blamed on the storm... Looks like it definitely will be a White Christmas this year! Which will be nice for a change, as I haven't seen one in a while it seems.

Also playing this evening (and will be on the big screen at my place), is the BEST Christmas movie ever "The Year Without a Santa Claus", starring the aforementioned Mister Snow Miser and his brother Mister Heat Miser.

In case anyone is interested in some background on the "Mister Misers", you can find info on Snow Miser HERE, and his brother Heat Miser HERE.

You really shouldn't miss it...

Greatest. Post. Ever.


We here at like seriously are very passionate about our sports teams. Some, like CityCat and myself are a part of the greatest group of fans on Earth, we're Browns fans. Others like SayHey are fans of teams (Giants/Noles/Niners) who best years were a decade or two ago, but they keep their faith strong and we can respect them. A few, like Dews, are a part of a fan base (Redskins) that think they're gonna win a championship. That is even when the championship game is taking place and they're not in the game. We all though agree on one thing, we all hate a certain collection of fans that exist in this world. The opening paragraph pretty much sums it up more then I ever could:
With the Red Sox advancing to the World Series, Boston College still undefeated, KG moving to the Celtics, and this year’s Patriots in the process of becoming the best team in the history of the NFL (and you’re deluding yourself if you can't accept the reality of that), we are on the verge of witnessing a perfect storm of douchebaggery emanating from the greater Boston area. We’re talking the absolute zenith of self-important fuckfacery. The sky will turn pitch black and rain vinegar upon us all.

You see, most sports fans don't hate the Patriots, Celtics, or Red Sox. Not at all, we can respect the way they play, how they go about things and feel pitty on the Bruins since their a member of the original 8. No, what we hate are the fuckin fans in New England. Sadly this epidemic was not nationwide, it had been contained to the Northeast. That is it was contained until Tom Brady and the Red Sox removed their curse. Now, you see "Red Sox Nation" nation wide. Hell, you see them almost as much as you see alleged Yankees and Cowboys fans. These are examples of fans that didn't exist until those teams started winning year in and year out and thought it was cool to be a fan of those teams.

Thankfully, Kissing Suzy Kolber also gave us some hints as to how you can spot some of these "New Enlgand Sports Fans".
2. Bitch about Dane Cook “representing” you while, at the same time, rocking his exact same haircut.

5. Be sure to boast about all the hot chicks Tom Brady gets to nail. Because that’s totally something for YOU to brag about.

7. If you put a five into a jukebox at any sports bar, you must play “Satellite” by the Dave Matthews Band at least once.

13. Be sure to grow your hair out under your artificially aged Red Sox hat so that little hair wings sprout out the side. That looks great.

CityCat said recently at our Sunday Football Event at Baileys while looking at a gentleman in a Patriots jersey, "Oh, you just pop your collar don't you." Yes, most Patriots fans in the 20s all look like the douchebags who pop their fucking collar, disgusting. She also has quite the disdain for the NEW ENGLAND Patriots for taking a region as their location and not an actually city. She does have a valid point, though I wonder how long it will be until the San Diego Chargers become the Southern California Chargers.
