Yeah right. Although they can go 5-0 and that is just fine with me. 

They say, on any Sunday... and boy, on this Sunday the proverbial tables were turned...
no, spun wildly, and the Fins (I'm weeping) prevailed. This game was just pure joy for
me. After suffering through yet another FSU loss to Miami I had resigned myself to
watching another close loss. This is what was realistically expected. But to my extreme
joy my new .sig worked to perfection and Miami totally dominated flo in every phase of
the game. Offense, defense, special teams, and most important, the score board. The
newly unveiled 45 defense pressured jimbo all day. While that alone would have not done
the trick, that AND our revitalized secondary did do the trick. Kudos to Troy Vincent,
and Louis Oliver. Vincent with a team high 9 tackles along with Oliver's skill and
enthusiasim, along with Cox's 8 tackles, along with Oliver's interceptions, along with
someone named Hollier's (who?) 7 tackles, along with Oliver's... well you get the
picture, kept jimbo and therman, and andre, off the scoreboard for a long, long, long,
time. Offensively, Keith Jackson, along with Bobby Humphrey, along with Clayton, and
Duper, and Marino, and so on, and so on combined to dazzle the bills with scoring drive
after scoring drive. Well they dazzled me anyhow. Someone tell me that Keith Jackson
will not (did not) make a difference in this offense. He was worth every penny he signed
for. If he can open the passing game like he seemed to do Sunday, then the rest of the
league is in trouble. He was just awesome. Just awesome. I can't begin to describe how
happy I was all day Sunday. I had started the weekend by severely pulling some muscles
in my back moving a hide-a-bed I didn't want anyhow, and was down virtually the entire
weekend. Sunday rolled around and I was dumped on the floor in front of the TV while my
handmaidens delivered beer and some new artichoke dip someone whipped up and I was left
alone to wallow in my misery. But HA! I spent the first quarter yelling and screaming
so much that the handmaidens got tired of running in to see what was going on. So they
just stayed, and by the second half were making me crawl off to get them beer because
they didn't want to miss anything. But that's ok, a person needs a handmaiden or two to
help celebrate an occasion as worthy as this one. I really think only Miami fans and
Buffalo fans can understand what this rivalry means to us. Flo fans have every right to
be cocky and proud as they have basically drubbed us for too many years in a row. They
have a good team and they know it. But every year I watch and hope that, against all
odds, we will win and look good doing it. But Nooooooooooooooooooo. But
waiiiiiiiiiiiiit. But yesssssssssssssssssssssss. What could make me happier????????
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeep. Yep, sweep the bills. Highly unlikely. But me and my handmaidens will
be watching just in case. Then.... AFC playoffs, in Miami. Against Buffalo. Clean
sweep. Sounds good doesn't it? But that`s getting way ahead of things. I'll settle for
wearing this grin for a couple of days. Great game!
