amazon patriots 19-0 book cache
February 8th, 2008
i got sick last week and it got worse this tuesday. for a few days i’d fall asleep around 9 just to wake up later because my throat hurts so bad. and i have to blow my nose and sneeze. it hurts to talk and to clear my throat. maybe i’m not just having a cold, it’s flu or something. i really don’t know. but aside from not having a fever, i’ve been pretty miserable. 
;_;
so i woke up a few minutes ago and checked out new posts on the colts forum. someone posted a cached link of the amazon patriots 19-0 book (screenshot).
the most amusing part is the review by D. Sterling (Dallas, TX). s/he apparently knows something we don’t.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prescient, February 1, 2008
By D. Sterling (Dallas, TX)
What a wonderful and insightful book! The whole story of this incredible season is laid out with amazing detail, wonderful anecdotes, and personal vignettes that really touch the heart of every football fan.
The final chapter, detailing the Super Bowl, is especially worthwhile. After Brady’s now famous debilitating hang-nail on his left hand in the first quarter, the world waited with baited breath as the two backup QB “Matt’s” flipped a coin to see who would play. We all watched as the quarter hung on its side, eventually falling the way of Matt Gutierrez. While he did not complete a pass the rest of the way, the 6 “statue-of-liberty” plays, for a combined 275 yards, set a Super Bowl record for both the number of statue-of-liberty plays, and the total yardage from that special bon-mot of a play.
I digress…..get the book….it will change your life.
LMAO this person seriously has some hallucination issues. maybe s/he had a fever when s/he wrote that.
patriots 19-0 book deal
February 5th, 2008
As a Colts fan, I am completely elated that the patriots lost to the giants in the Super Bowl XLII. In fact I still cannot get over that. I cannot sleep much without replaying the last moments of the game in my head.
Today I found out that the patriots had already filed copyright to “19-0″ and “19-0 The Perfect Season” prior to the game just to find their perfection ruined.
Amazon even had a link to the book but had to remove it. Someone however saved the book cover before they did.
I’m so inspired I made them a new book cover for the book they can actually have.
NFL torrent site
December 15th, 2007
If you are a NFL fan like me, you might appreciate this site. It hosts torrents for almost all the NFL games during the season. It even has NFL shows on the NFL network. I’ve been looking for a torrent for the 2006 Colts America’s Game episode for ages. I finally found it there. The registration is completely free

Also channelsurfing a good site for online NFL game streaming (and other selective sports)
COLTS WON!!!!!!!!

Colts WON 2006 AFC Championship

COLTS WON!!!!!!!!
Andy and I embraced each other after the last Marlin Jackson interception. Tears were rolling down my face. I couldn’t believe how joyful I was! I feel so happy for the Colts esp. Peyton Manning. Now people can shut up about how he’s never been to a Superbowl. He’s going to one NOW!
The game was excruciating to watch. I had to hold my breath until the last 16 seconds. THANKS TO THE GUYS FROM IOWA!!! Dallas Clark & Bob Sanders! Dallas had 6 catches for 137 yards and Bob Sanders had a crucial pass breakup at 3rd & 4 on NE’s second to last possession with 2:30 to go.
I had HUGE doubt after the first half but they came back from the half time with GREAT looks coming back from a 18-point deficit (biggest in AFC Championship history). Wouldn’t I wish they’d have taken the lead earlier but they didn’t until there was only one minute left in the game. Peyton manning couldn’t watch the last NE drive and I totally felt for him.
herky on parade
May 7th, 2004
our school started this herky on parade event to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the historic Kinnick Stadium, home of the University of Iowa’s varsity football program. they placed 75 differently designed Hawkeye mascots Herky on iowa city streets. unfortunately some immature college students are busy vandalizing the newest additions to iowa city streets. what a shame. i personally don’t think they are the best art in the world but at least i appreciate the artists who put them together.

January 2nd, 2003
everyone! turn on your TV, the orange ball is on! Iowa Hawkeyes is IN IT.. i’m gonna watch it. i’m so excited that Iowa got in this time. I can’t wait to see Iowa win. yay!!
i’ve been cleaning up the whole apartment.. and making curry beef stew. i’m so proud of myself about the cleaning. aww.. it makes you feel completely refreshing when the entire living space is neat 
but i kinda messed up the stew since i put WAY TOO MUCH curry in it. arrg.. it made taste bitter.. i had to dump half of the soup out and add more water. it’s finally reaching its last stage. hopefully it will turn out ok despite of my strew up. prays now all is done. my next biggest project will be to WASH MY WINTER COAT. it’s sooooooo dirty. it has to be hand washed.
stacey, thanks for the suggestion. i’ve been playing FFX. i’m trying not to get addicted by video games so.. tries tries tries
