Welcome to ChokeTown, USA
I live in ChokeTown, USA. Yep.

Here from my vantage point at the corner of Throatlodge Boulevard and Avenue of the Chokemasters in the heart of the prolific choking district of Stranglation Nation, I can say that ChokeTownship has reached the pinnacle of its particular niche of entertainment. Without a doubt, we command the market in dramatic choking events on national television.

ChokeTown, by the way, is one of Darth Vader's favorite vacationing spots. He loves to while away his days at our imaginitive and popular Choking Amusement Parks, watching professional teams of chokers "do their thing". He also enjoys taking in the occasional live choking show.

In recent years, ChokeTown has hosted some of the most stunning full-on Chokefests in the world. Why...I remember....

(~~~~ insert wavey screen wash here for flashback effect ~~~~)

Game 6 of the 2006 NBA Finals, the ChokeTown Mavericks blast their way to an double digit lead over a stunned Miami Heat. Using home-choke advantage to its fullest, they pumped the crowd to manic levels of adrenaline.

Could it be? Could ChokeTown finally witness absolute victory!? Yes! This Professional Sports Team is now the Ultimate Power in the Universe! Alonzo Mourning's sourcer ways can't--!!

wait..got a little tickle in the back of my...thr..ccchh.....


"Ackk....auugg..ccchhkk....."



Good times. And then, just last year I remember.....
(~~~~~~~doodloo doodloo doodloo~~~~~)

The first round of the NBA playoffs, the ChokeTown Mavericks win an unprecedented 67 games for their franchise. They don't just lay down the Luhw, they ARE the Luhw! They are the Luhw-givahhs!! Entering the playoffs as the number 1 chokeseed in the West, they have all of ChokeTown on the edge of their seats, ripe with juicy anticipation - How will ChokeTown find a new way to capitalize on the extremes of positive and negative emotions? We didn't have long to wait!...

Here we are, facing the the PERFECT nemesis - the Golden State Warriors, the rebel scum to whom our Imperial Commander Nelly defected.

We had them now. Any attack made by the Warriors against us would be a useless gesture, no matter what technical data they've obtained!! This time, this ChokeTown Team really is the Ultimate Power in the Universe!! Nelly's sad devotion to his ancient religion has not helped him conjure a 67-15 rec----...!!


"Gaagghh.....chhhllkk.....agg-gg....."


Whew. Now that was Choketastic. And I remember the same year...
(~~~~~~~doodloo doodloo doodloo doodloo doodloo~~~~~)

It's 2006 NFL Playoff time, and the the ChokeTown Chokeboys are high off of an incredible victory over the Bucs on Thanksgiving Day. With the highest quarterback rating in the galaxy, Tony Romo is truly the Chokin' One. All of Choketown rides an intoxicating wave of false security...

We've beaten Indy, we've beaten the best. Now, it's time to meet Seattle. Easy pickens.....could it be? Could ChokeTown finally have the recipe for Unlimited Power!!? We're just down a SINGLE POINT! There's more than a minute on the game clock!! All we have to do is boink this ball 19 yards through the uprights and we win our first playoff game in a decade!!!!! All Tony Romo has to do to secure this lasting glorious victory is hold the football upright? EEEEasy! No prob, dood!! It's in the bag! This ChokeTown Team is, without a doubt, The ULTIMATE Power in the Universe!!!!!!!....


"cough..coughcoughHACKwheeeezzz....agg...ahhgggcck....."

And really, you can't top that. That was grade A chokage. I have never seen something so small get lodged so tightly at just the right moment ever before. That was choking perfection....it...it was...

I can't go on, I get all choked up. It was beautiful, man. But even so, we topped it. Yessir, just when you thought ChokeTown couldn't do anything Chokier, we go and TOTALLY redeem ourselves. It was just last week....

(~~~~~~~doodloo doodloo doodloo doodloo doodloo doodloo doodloo~~~~~)


The ChokeTown Chokeboys have done it again. All of ChokeTown has been whipped, whipped, whipped, nay, pureed, ... minced even, creamed, shreded, beaten, Frappachino'd I say, as if my some collosal appliace into a Choke-a-Lot Moose Chokerita. We've got our Pretzels. We've got our Ham Sandwiches. We've got our small plastic toy parts unsafe for children under two. We've got our Chicken Wings and our Roast Beast, too.

The Chokeboys have set about winning almost every single game. See, that's how they get ya. A franchise record season. 13-3 (pay no mind to that "13"... it is of no consequence...). Soon, the Rebels will be crushed. Our work here is done, my friend.

Now Witness the Power of this Fully Armed and Operational Terrel Owens!! Fire at will Commander Romo!!

POWER!!! UNLIMITED POWER!!!!! THIS CHOKETOWN TEAM IS NOW THE ULTIMATE POWER IN THE UNIVERSE!!!!! No One Will Stop Us This Time!!!! HA HA HA HA!!! HAAA HAAA HAAAA--ch....cchk..


"ckk....Agff....gggghh......ack.....gggg....ccchkk............."

It's not all bad. I can say without a doubt no one has the cross-sport mastery of chokage that Choketown has.

Not to mention we all get a life-time supply of Choka-Cola, proud sponsor of the ChokeTown Chokeboys.

As soon as I saw the word "choke," I knew where this was going...or where it came from, rather. Having lived in your land the last time the Chokeboys won a Superbowl, hopefully flying my black and gold amidst a sea of blue and white...until that fateful interception by the never-shoulda-been-quarterback-O'Donnell, all I can say is...

Long live JessiMo!

...although...come to think of it...I was counting on the Chokeboys to defeat the evil Patriots...

Nevermind.

I'm not a Choketown native by birth, but I am by choice. As soon as I saw the title of the blog, I knew what it was about. Choketown has been a buzz with gloom and doom based on the failures of the local sports teams.

You forgot to mention the Choketown Stars. No matter how well they do in the regular season....its out in the first round.

Then there are the Rangers, who despite having had a league MVP recently, still can't get to the playoffs.

I couldn't bring myself to write any further examples without suffering brain damage..

The one bright spot in our fair berg - the team that never pretends to be a championship contender...

Ahhh! The choking! It burns! I have been a Cowboys fan my entire life and...well, I don't really have to say much. They play great, then they choke.

As a note, I live less than 100 miles south of ChokeTown.

MTFBWY! God bless ChokeTown!

That was grade A chokage

LMAO! That was indeed the Muff Heard 'Round The World :^O

JessiMo.

how 'bout Romo-Jess? :D


Now Witness the Power of this Fully Armed and Operational Terrel Owens!!

ya know it was nice to see him actually SUPPORT a team mate in his press conference but he totally BLEW IT when he cried like a little girl! I mean, seriously, THIS was the one time his ANGRY outburts would have actually been appropriate, LOL.

T.O. needs to find his balls, and Im not talking about the pigskin kind... ]:)

PS: as a die hard Eagles fan, I must say I took a great deal of pleasure in that loss to The Giants....hey, we sucked this year so we needed SOMETHING to cheer us up...

now if The Packers will just send The Giants home crying too, it will make up for the crap season my Birds had.

Oh yes, Eagles can choke too....all the time...

Now Moose, how can you forget to mention the greatest Chokers of all? The Indianapolis Chokes! Yay! They have returned after an stupidly Lucky season last year. Thank the Maker for the Pats, and Chargers! Woot!!! The Chokes may think about turning over that horseshoe, it really seems to be ineffectual the way it is now. (I can rest now, for a bit anyway, now that I don't have to hear all about the great Chokes lucking their way to a SB Championship.)

Eagles all the way... hey you never know when all the other teams in the playoffs will have mysterious heart attacks so they randomly pick from a hat who should be the Choke Bowl winner...

Which wouldn't be rigged or anything...

and I WOULDN'T bribe the judge with pineconez or anything like that... *nervous laughter stopped by choking*

HAHAHAA! I'm laughing for two reasons: 1) It was a funny post, no doubt there. 2) I'm and Iggles fan (for yous guys that aren't from Philly thats EAGLES fan) and I'm laughing at your pain cause your a Cowboys fan.

EERRRRR! Now I'm angry for two reasons: 1) Your a Cowboys fan. 2) As my fellow bird-bedecked brothers have said: Philadelphia is choketown USA.

Case in point:

1) For three years, THREE YEARS the Iggles went to the NFC Championship game and LOST! THREE YEARS IN A ROW! You'd figure on our fourth trip we'd make it, which we did only to lose to the Patriots after scoring first. (Look it up, teams that have scored first in the Super Bowl have nearly always won the game.)

Case in point cont...

2) Philadelphia Flyers. Got Peter Foresburg as a free agent and had one of the best seasons in their history only to lose in the first round of the playoffs. The following year was one of their worst seasons.

3) The Phillies.... first playoff trip in 14 years..... need I say any more?

4) Smarty Jones. Wins the Preakness and wins that other race in the Triple Crown only to break his leg and lose the Kentucy Derby.
