Jay's Bio

I am OUTRAGED by the PED scandal, and will be writing a series of articles to that effect as soon as I can score some Adderall.

Raider Nation since 2006. FWIW, I think Al Davis should step in and coach the Raiders, and if he can't go .500 after 20 games, he should fire himself.

Yankee-Hater since 1996.

I am aware of all internet traditions.

I've heard of it yea, but I have to watch it sequentially on youtube because it's not on the DVD version (well..it's on the special edition not the one I have I think).

The parts I've seen are hilarious.

But yea...Anchorman 2...may not be the best idea hahah

Thanks man,
