In a world before message boards and LJ communities...

The other day, in my typical late night internet wanderings, I stumbled across a community for fandom ship manifestos. I've read some entertaining ones before, so I went through their Master List and clicked on the pairings that seemed interesting.

Then I found this one. About Jo/Laurie. Yes, from Little Women. They were one of my earliest

They said the 59-0 final was the largest scoring shutout in about 33 years, so yeah... it's pretty bad.

...ouch. :P Yeah, this season is pretty much a wash for the Titans. And last year they were doing so well. *shakes head*

[killer_roach]

Yeah... around here most people are Lions fans, so they're in a similar boat, having only won one game in the past two years...

I follow four teams, two of which are doing well (Bengals and Packers) and two of which are awful, to put it charitably (Lions and Browns).

Oh, that's right! Michigan has the Lions. ...I'm sorry. :p They do have a terrible record right now.

:) I shipped Jo/Laurie too. (When I first read the book, I burst into tears and my mother thought it was because Beth died. Nope, it was because Jo wouldn't marry Laurie.) Fantastic link, thanks for pointing it out.

As far as Tennessee goes, my father said last week that their record was deceptive, and they were in fact much worse than they appeared. :P

:D *laughs* Aww. Sure, I'm glad someone else found it interesting!

Oof. :p That's...yeah. It's pretty pitiful right now.
