Junior's back

A couple of days after announcing his retirement/graduation from football, Junior Seau has decided to come back and play for the New England Patriots.
Well, atleast he doesn't keep us in suspense like Roger Clemens..

Back in 2003, my Dolphins traded for Seau in a move that made me giggle like a 12 year old schoolgirl. The thought of Seau and Zach Thomas in the same linebacking unit had me wetting my pants and making those around me very unconfortable...
Seau started 15 games for the Fins that season and finished 2nd on the team in tackles. But the 2 seasons after that weren't so kind to Junior as he missed alot of playing time due to injury.
Nick Saban didn't want him back this year and Junior decided to call it quits.

But then New England came calling and he changed his mind. The chance for playing for a championship team and with his buddy Rodney Harrison was too good to pass up and now Junior will get a chance to finish his Hall of Fame career on a higher note.
It doesn't surprise me that New England has taken a chance with him. The Pats are the best at signing veterens that other teams think are washed up, and then riding them to Super Bowl victories.

I can see Seau already having a Pro-Bowl season and single handedly leading New England to 2 victories over Miami this year,crushing our play-off hopes and leaving me to cry uncontrolably in a fetal position.
Yeah, it's fun to be me...

Well my dad was in the Military. So me and my older sister were both born in Lakenheath, but I was only there for a month or two.

I have lived in California, Virginia, Mississippi(for 7 or 8 years) and now St.Louis.

Davey said...

This will be your first non-playoff year then...

Yeah, hopefully not...but i'm starting to get it through my head that the braves aren't going to the playoffs.

Do you have a favorite player?

Mine is Chipper, he is the one that got me to play 3rd and switch hit.

Davey said...

I liked Avery alot when he was there..after that is was Chipper when he came up..

It's been Chipper for years now, along with Andruw and now you can add McCann and Francoeur..

Did you re-type your preview for Miami or were you able to copy and paste?

Davey said...

I copy pasted..but the fonts and so changed. So, I had to change some things in the HTML to get it back in the normal font etc..

Anonymous said...

How did you do that?

This is my first time doing anything like this...

Davey said...

Well, when you copy paste, the text will probably show up bigger, or maybe smaller, or in a different font that you were wanting..

So, go to the "html" tab..and take away all of the html code that is in front and behind your text.
Then your text will be the default, normal way...

Now, if you copy paste, and you like the way the text is looking, then just leave it like that. It's up to you reall...

Ok, it's up...thanks for helping me.
