We won't be able to get the Steelers game tomorrow. We'll be seeing the Buffalo/Jets game, then the Seahawks at four.

I think the fact that they wont have a home game in the playoffs helps them too.

Me too.

More than likely, we won't get it either here in central NY State either. It's either Buffalo, Jets or Giants. My son has a subscription online where he can listen to the Steelers games. It's better than not getting it at all I guess.

But he still has two bum knees, and I'm not convinced that he's 100%.

Yes I hear you, he's not 100%. His thumb is still a problem and he's got some leg problems. But after playing a little and watching pro sports for five decades I have often noticed that some player play better when they are a little physically challenged. Sometimes it's best to be a little hurt. But saying that, I still would like Ben to be 100%.

Anyhow, we'll see.

Go Stillers.

I almost had a heart attack that game. That QB of theirs (Ferragammo) had a good game, and we were in trouble. That was one of the greatest Super Bowls ever.

"They're such a smart team."

And the refs love'em (no, I'm not talking about the Snow Job).

A couple of weeks ago, the Pats were playing a must win game. On a critical 3rd and short, Brady takes a quick snap and sneaks for the first down. The defense was caught flat footed and the announcers were squealing about what a genius play it was.

Just one problem, the O-line was not set, not even close. Illegal procedure call, right? Wrong. After that non-call, and about 55 others I've seen this year, it's apparent to me that the refs will do anything it takes to get the Pats to the AFC Championship Game.

Remember back in 69, when handratty was promising the future with bradshaw. I miss the sports & ethnic foods more than anything else (living up here on the Yukon); but ain't ready to move back. If I was though, would be the burgh.

Cincy is going to get pounded, but after that its a new season. Injuries can change the entire picture.
