Being there with all those people, celebrating together and watching the fanfare after winning is an experience I will never forget. Which is good, because it's a memory I've had to cling to for a long time as a Raiders fan.

As a fellow life long Raiders fan I feel ya' on that one. When I was younger my dad got tickets to the Superbowl in TB from one of the companies he did business with, I got to watch the Raiders absolutely destroy the friggin' Redskins, to this day I still love that Joe T hates the Raiders for that very reason.

Glad you were there and not me, Tom, where as it was a great moment for you, if I was there I would either be dead or getting my daily dose of electroshock right about now.

Love it man, the world needs more kids that compete and less that learn that all you need to do is participate to get a "trophy". We are raising a generation of "good enoughs" not enough kids who want to strive and win.... but that's a thread for another day.
Neil you lost me at World Cup, seriously you think I'm going to believe that, there is no way for someone to make a cup big enough for the entire world, next you'll be telling me there's a World Sportsbra... sheesh.
