more minor fame for me

I made it into today's TMQ, near the end.

(I was surprised that he failed to take the Raiders to task for their preposterous punt on 4th and 4 with 4:08 to go in the game; the score was tied, the Raiders were 4-7 and playing at home, so instead of trying to make the first down, or kicking a long field goal with their Popeye-legged kicker, they punt and effectively tell the Chiefs, "Hey, no hurry, we'll wait for you to give us the ball back and try to win it then."  The Chiefs scored the winning touchdown on the next drive on a 70-yard catch.  Thanks, Norv!  You sickening, craven lout.)

Would be if I was English, of course, which I'm not (at least not entirely). The town where I grew up had a pro team for most of the late nineties...

OK, now i feel dumm. What's the rest of your heritage? I'm guessing some Scottish...

I was born and brought up in Edinburgh. My dad's a Scot, and I describe myself as Scottish, but my mother's English and I have a mostly English accent.

Anglo-Scot is probably most accurate, really.
