Mike,
Spent the holidays at several parties because of my wife's work and other things. I listened to the people talk and I have decided that what should be done is have the senate and house gather in a bar. They may not be able to solve any problems but at least they might start making sense.
I'm with you about the "Pats". No real superstars, but a team that works well together and they don't have some spoiled brat, big mouth who blames everything on the rest of the team. I would love to slap Randy Moss right up side his empty head. All that talent and an IQ of 12.
