Last time I was there I had an internet cafe in walking distance from my guesthouse. I went there often to charge my phone and charge up my ipod, and get on the net. So I will be able to check the scores and highlights from the game briefly, but I think part of the reason you travel is to do things you normally don't do back home. So I wouldn't mind forgetting about Kansas City all together, but somehow I can't resist checkin the Chiefs score.

Well, to be fair, you wouldn't normally be watching the Chiefs in the Superbowl while you're in Kansas City, so here's to a safe return by late January.

I have been living on my own for the past couple of years and haven't asked my parents for any finacial support since I started working when I was 15. Try again you leech on society. Did your Dad fund this trip or did you finally get a real job ? But hey to show you I'm not a hard ass, next time you're in NYC let me know and I'll invite you over to show you how a functioning member of society acts like a man.

I'm happy to hear you've finally gotten out on your own a little bit. I don't talk to you so it's hard for me to know what you've been up to the past couple years. I know you've always been wrong in your assumptions about me, but I think that just comes from not having enough going on in your own life. So just remember, where there is a will there is a way. It's not always about money. Once you get away from all the societal traps and expectations others put on you, and you begin acting alone to seek out what interests you most; then you will find everything is much easier than you originally thought.
I don't have the best job (I work as a med tech at patient care tech at hospitals and nursing homes) but I've never had to "leach from society" and receive any help from the government through welfare, financial school aid, or unemployment checks. In fact, I'm a Libertarian and don't believe in those things anyway. All my trips to Africa I paid for on my own and sometimes I may come back in a little bit of debt, but what you see and experience nobody can take away from you.

Yea you don't need gov't assistance when your parents still bail ya out.
You know whats funny, after all these years you still have nooo idea why people here attack you, shows how self absorbed you are.

There's nothing wrong with benefiting from family money. Everyone has to make the most of whatever resources are available to them.
My first trip to Africa was paid for all on my own, except I got stuck when I was over there. My parents loaned me around 400 dollars, and I also had two friends who loaned me a combined 600 dollars. I paid my parents back and one of my friends, and the other friend insisted that I didn't pay him back.
The second year I went I paid for everything entirely on my own. I also incurred debts during that trip but this time it was on my own credit card, so it didn't involve anyone else.
And my goal is not to try to figure out why people might attack me on here, because it's not worth my limited time trying to figure such things out (my time is better spent on people who do like me); some people will hate you no matter what. They usually don't like who you are, and some things we can't change even if we tried.
I don't like you either, and I promise you I'm not the only person that dislikes you. But there's not a person on Earth who is liked by everyone.

For the record I predicted a 2nd year playoff berth, but the Denver and SD collapse made a first year berth possible.
