First of all, to anyone who was offended by my ribbing of the Maine fans (spelling), I apologize. Secondly, the story of spelling "choke" was meant to be the relating of a humerous story, not a violent attack on Maine. Realize that, except in '89, when I was rooting for Harvard, I was rooting for Maine in all of their NCAA appearances. (I only root against you when you play us.) Finally, and far more importantly, I would like to correct one fan whose name does not appear with the text. I believe it came from ?netnews?. When I was writing about a whiner, I WAS NOT REFERRING TO MAINE FANS!!! I was commenting on the article by a Brown fan about the lack of respect Brown had received in a vote that had not yet taken place. I had thought that the complaint (because it was premature) had come across as sounding like whining. That would have been an unjustified attack on Maine fans (who I have NEVER accused of being whiners). To Larry Latour and Wayne Smith, I agree. I had wrongly believed that more people had a sense of humor. Ribbing will not happen again. Sorry for taking up everyone else's time Tony BU'92
