I grew up in Foxboro, but didn't become a Patriots fan until Parcells came to
town. I actually started watching the NFL in 1988, but mainly just watched
whatever was on TV. My interest grew from ~1994 - until 1998 - the year I briefly
attended college in Jersey. This was the first time I didn't have the option of
watching every game, and I vowed to NEVER miss another game. I have
succeeded with 3 exceptions:
The 9-3 field goal contest vs. Cleveland in 2003
The first half of the Brady comeback vs San Diego in 2001
1 quarter of a Chargers games in 2007 or 2008 due to a rookie DVR mishap
