I know what you mean, Rich.  I've been on the NE Pats list for about 2.5
yrs now, and you should have seen the new subscribers coming on last
December!  Most have been pretty good though.  I guess it depends on
when you get a computer and discover listservs.

I didn't know this list existed until I found reference to it on
Drisko's (?) page.  I did a few searches last year, but could'nt find
anything.  Of course, last year was so discouraging...the veterans of
_this_ list really deserve a hand.

Maybe I've been a Sox fan for too long. (no maybe about it : )

Anyway, the new era has begun, the 10 or so years since Lennie's death
is gone (the length of time at that time predicted for a Celt's
recovery) and we're on our way!

Thanks for the welcome, sorry I came on a little strong, but I'm just so
psyched!!

I guess you could call me a borderline NE'er.  I live in the very far
northern tip of Maine (Aroostook County, the Crown of Maine, final
frontier of the East Coast).  I'm closer to Canada than anywhere.  Still
get all the games on Primestar and WSBK, though.

Okay, I'll stop.  On to Orlando!

Oh, one more thing.  Do you think the Fakers wish they had sent us Shaq
instead?
