Jimmy Irsay can cure 6 diseases and here in Baltimore his name wil STILL live in Infamy. heck, his own grandmother called her son Robert "the devil". Jimmy can be all sensitive and play Dylan songs on his guitar all he wants, but his mercenarial refusal to give the name "Colts" back to Baltimore when we got a franchise - holding it for ransom for millions of dollars at the time - says it all about him.

Maybe your crankiness is the cause of your baldness.

It's no big deal, really. You can just take a deep breath and accept that other people like to do things that are different from what you enjoy. See? Painless.
