 Was at the Bills/Jags game yesterday and I gotta tell ya 'Mericans: you can really put on a show.
 The Color Guard introduced the flags and marched across the field.  Two lines into the SSB, it felt like there were 60,000 people singing.  I was one of them.  Then when the planes flew overhead I started to get goosebumps.  Have you ever heard 80,000 cheer in unison?  I have.
 
 Then I see this Eagle 100+ yards away, and it flies in to trainer so gracefully, yet powerfully.  Carving it's path through the wind to other side of the field - every spectator got a nice glimpse of the bird.  And the look on it's face as it lands.  Damn.  And lemme tell ya: there was not one person not cheering.  82,000 in total.
 
 May the victims of September 11th Rest in Peace.
