Putting things in perspective...

The Fire lost (3-2) yet again, to bring their record to 1-5. Roy Halladay failed to pitch the Phillies to victory in game one of the NLCS. The white trash woman behind us at the Patriots - Ravens game couldn't complete a sentence without using the eff-bomb. And we lost our first game in our Play for Pay fantasy football league. Oh, and we have an early season cold.

Such was our weekend.

Thankfully, none of that matters or even bothers us.

We were wasting time yesterday before leaving to go tailgate and came across the chilling video of Rutgers defensive tackle Eric LeGrand. In the span of five seconds, he went from making a special teams tackle against Army to being paralyzed below the neck. Watch the video. It will put your "problems" in proper perspective. And then shut your mouth and stop bitching about stupid stuff. Go hug your wife and kids. Tell 'em you love them.

And say a prayer for Eric LeGrand.
