Seattle won. All of us fans were hoping for a win, but we lost.

So the only negative of the whole evening.  Oh well.

It isn't surprising, Billie seems to only back losing teams.

True but you don't usually get to pick your hometown teams. :)

But he has an apartment in NY, so he could follow the Jets.  But that won't help. :(

Or the Rangers. :P

He also has family in MN but he's not fanning over any of their teams!

That is true, but at least if he backed the Rangers he would be backing a team that is good.  Or maybe he is bad luck and I don't want him to back them.  If he is bad luck, hopefully he is a Blackhawks fan.:lol:

That's because there is nothing worth fanning over.They all suck too.
