Hey guys, James here. I'm really hoping for a win today. I told you all yesterday what I wanted to see so I'm not going to get into it. If I start now I wont stop and I'm pretty hard to shut up. This game is one I want us to win very badly--more so than any this season almost and I cant understand why. I'll spare you further reading while not actually getting anything out of it by providing you with some links. Enjoy. Oh and..
