I might feel better if I stopped rooting for underdogs so much.

Go Google! Go Obama! Go Yankees! Go Iron Man!

Yeah, feels good.

    So you've chosen that blue pill. Enjoy the comfort of the matrix. You don't want to live in a world where everyone needs a shower, lives in sewers, and eats slop. BTW whats the location of the rebel alliance?

    @ Aaron "Go MySpace!"? How 'bout "Go Virb!" :P ;)

    eww... Yankees. I think we all know it's the year of the Cubs! Who cares if they haven't won a World Series in a 100 years....
  • Paul D. replied May 7th
    What's all this about Yankees? Go Boris! Go ARM! Go Man U! Go Shakespeare...

    Yanks are an underdog?
  • Jake C. replied May 7th
    Iron man is in fact an underdog, on account of the fact that Batman is WAY more badass.
  • Jay S. replied May 7th
    Hillary, not Obama, would clearly be the Yankees of this analogy
  • mark b. replied May 7th
    It's all about the "little Aussie battlers" haha..

    of course we don't say "rooting for" in Australia as it has a slightly different meaning over here. ;p

    I think many of you missed LC's point. Google, Yankees, Obama etc... NOT UNDERDOGS that's the point. LC cheered for leaders to feel better... Sheesh... Go UTC, MIT, Oracle, XP, Wii, Tikibar TV, and all of Revision3
  • Brian S. replied May 7th
    How is Iorn Man or Google an underdog?
  • Giovanni .. replied May 7th

    <yawn>... sigh.... let's see... liberals, baseball, search engines, and self-absorbed womanizers who dress up in flying metal suits?? Those are your heroes?

    It's a good thing you are so friendly and so smart and that you invented Pownce. Whatever happen to football, Superman, Theodore Roosevelt, and AltaVista?

    Okay, so maybe I'm getting old. But I really do miss AltaVista. Yahoo bought them and it disappeared. Just like Yahoo will if M/S buys them. <sigh>... I guess Google ain't that bad. But Iron Man and Obama? .... puh-lease.... Where's the real heroes anymore?

    On second thought, are you saying that you *normally* root for (sorry Aussies) underdogs, but just this once you are breaking form by rooting for (sorry again Aussies) these four things? I think we all missed that.

    Humor, maybe? I think I get it. I think. Maybe not. More analysis is needed on this. Can someone get me a shrink and a linguist?

    Okay, I'm shutting up now.

    Make no qualms about it - I've been rooting for underdogs ever since first viewing that Bay Area Geek Girl video on Google - in fact, that's what brought me to Powncetown....Still waiting for Au to phone back-------------

    yanks are never an underdog...they're the ultimate top dog in baseball that everyone hates
  • Sanjay S. replied May 7th
    Speaking of underdogs, Go Clippers!

    i feel dumber after reading this
  • Mike N. replied May 7th
    My pet birdy is blind - hey Joe, have u seen dumb & dumber yet? what was the name of that blind kid's pet bird? was it birdy?
  • Jay S. replied May 7th
    wow, practically nobody got what you were doing here, lol.

    (so just to be clear, I meant Obama WAS the underdog of this race! Sometimes underdogs win.)
  • Wesley J. replied May 7th
    @Mike- The birds name was Petey. Loyd sold it to the blind boy after he taped the head back on. I remember the strangest facts.
