Under the circumstances, I've decided to leave out the prose and any pictures from the loser's lockerroom. (LOVE those visits to the loser's lockerroom! So this is a major sacrifice)





Besides BeanTown must remain BeanTown, not Champs City

Wabbit, so sorry to hear the bad news...my best wishes for a quick and complete recovery for your mom.

I'll echo Thoughtful here...and add: be sure to take care of yourself, too, okay?

I thought that was the best Superbowl EVER and not just because we had the winning numbers for TWO quarters on the football pool...we invested $5 and won $50!

Best final 2 minutes ever, hands down.

Hope Wabs' mom is ok.

That was one hell of a game.

Patriots' Season Perfect For Rest Of Nation

Thanks to everyone for the good wishes (hey Res!). Mom is holding her own, gets a little better every day. Here's the poop: she had a compound fracture of her right ankle, about 1-1/2" above the joint. The tibia now has three screws holding it together and the bottom 3" or so of the fibula are what the orthopedic surgeon described as "dusted". He said he never used a scalpel when putting the tibia back together. Amazingly, all tendons, ligaments, muscles and major blood vessels somehow escaped injury, so once the tibia heals, she'll walk pretty much normally without the bottom bit of fibula. She also has five broken ribs and had a partially collapsed lung on her left side. At her age (75 years) that has been the more pressing concern. However, she's tough and she's a very good patient, and so far there have been no complications or infections. Her cast gets changed on Wednesday morning and I'm hoping she'll be able to come home then. We have everything here that she needs and I think she'll do better at home than in the crowded nursing facility she's in now.

So maybe by next weekend, I'll be back to a normal posting schedule. Meanwhile, have at it!

My lands! Thanks for the update, and I hope she mends fast.

Roger Clemens looks like he's telling the truth. Someone is out to get him or he's an excellent liar.

And I keep asking myself why Congress is distracting itself with baseball problems. The Repubs didn't have anything better to do, but why are the Dems continuing this fairly unimportant issue?

I miss your sports creativity.

Thanks PP - it's taking longer than expected, but maybe another 3 weeks or so and I'll be back.
