More to come … please chime in with your own border-war lowlights.
Remember, folks: "Jets Suck" is not simply about them sucking on the field of play. That almost is peripheral to the true essence of Green Beans suckage, as bad as they can be between those white lines. They suck first and foremost as an organization devoid of scruples, integrity, honesty, proper hygiene or other remotely redeeming qualities.
But, but -- the children! What will we tell the children?! Interestingly, they seem to have intuitively figured things out on their own, perhaps involving a genetic component that suggests nature over nurture ... Or is it the other way around?
