is it basketball season yet, and is larry bird still playing... ??

Tom Brady, on the first play from scrimmage for the N.E.Pats of '06, is sacked, fumbles; Buffalo recovers, takes it into the end zone for a touchdown: BILLS!!

You can file that one under "Jeeeeeeezus Christ!!"

Don't know why this reminds me of the '86 Sox season, except that on the first pitch from Jack Morris of Detroit (and that was the very first game of that season for all of MLB), Dwight Evans parked it into the left field seats. Sox went on to win the '86 Series -- oop! except for Bill Buckner...

So maybe this inauspicious beginning can be, like, a "good" luck charm? Like when a seagull drops a plop on your shoulder?

UPDATE: Laurence Maroney: two carries, one for 27 yards, another for 22. Jeeeezus Christ!!

Hence, the name, or as Spared correctly noted, the Bostonization of a French term.
