And again

The Buffalo Bills have now won two in a row, both in the last minute of the game. Root for them! http://www.billsinsider.com
Next Sunday at 10:00 AM - The San Diego Chargers come to town. If the Bills can win that one, it will mean one thing for sure: there is a sleeping giant in Western NY, and it is beginning to stir. Go J.P. - I was always a believer in you.

Why do I still care about the Buffalo Bills at my advanced age? Consider:

Why does someone raised in bigotry in the deep south still prejudice, even after s/he has been exposed to more enlightened views?

Why do smokers continue smoking, even after developing a chronic smoker's cough, and even after they've seen pictures of a charred smoker's lungs?

Why do we still appreciate a beautiful sunset, even after seeing hundreds of them over the years?

Why do we listen to, and sing to ourselves, the same songs over and over again?

Why do we stay in contact with the members of our family of origin even though we have absolutely nothing in common with them except ancestors?

Why do women go shopping even when they don't really need anything?

Why do people buy Humvies when Hondas are more practical?

Why do we keep eating on Thanksgiving, even after our buttonholes are burning imprints into our bellies?

Why anything?
