About

I'm an individual whose life has been spent following losers for roughly 30 years. I follow the Washington Nationals (formerly Montreal Expos) in baseball, the Cincinnati Bengals in football, the Philadelphia 76er's in basketball and as a Northwestern University (the real NU, not the dyslexic NU) alum, I follow the Wildcats in football, college basketball, women's lacrosse, etc.

Not having seen my teams win regularly, I've enjoyed Kelly Amonte Hiller's women's lacrosse teams winning the past four NCAA tournaments. It's especially amazing since they only restarted the team eight years ago.

I also remember the NU football team season of 1995 quite well and still am angry that the baseball owners canceled the season in 1994 when the Montreal Expos had the best record at 74-40.
