Six Lombardi Trophies!!!!!

I couldn’t post right after the Superbowl because I caught a nasty computer virus.  But I am back and ready to celebrate in blog form. 
The Steelers are the Superbowl Campions!!!
Just like I said they would be!!!
And James Harrison really was the MVP even if he didn’t get the nod.  The whole game hinged on him [...]

NFL Playoff, Championship round…

So, here is what I wrote before this past weekend’s full slate of games:
The Steelers are going to beat the Chargers this week.
The Ravens are going to beat the Titans this week.
The Cardinals are going to be crushed by the Panthers this week.
The Eagles will lose to the Giants this week.
Apparently I am much better [...]

NFL Playoff Predictions update…

So, last week I wrote the following:
In the AFC:
The Colts will beat the Chargers next week.
The Ravens will beat the Dolphins next week.
The following week, the Colts will beat the Titans and the Ravens will lose to my Steelers.
The Colts and the Steelers will meet in Pisstburgh for the AFC Championship game and the Steelers [...]

2008/2009 NFL Playoff Predictions…

I didn’t do this last year but I thought I might add it this year.  And since I am sitting on the couch wearing my Hines Ward jersey, I have got football on my mind.
Yesterday was the end of the NFL regular season and the playoffs (I don’t suppose the NFL owns that word, right?) [...]

Tuesday morning thoughts…

I am rather pleased this morning.  I beat my opponents in both of my fantasy football leagues this week.  My team on Yahoo.com is in first place in the standings and my team on NFL.com is third.  Not too shabby considering I had a couple of Seattle receivers on both teams.  Had to drop them [...]

Football thoughts…

What in the hell happened to my beloved WVU team?!  So very, very sad.  I thought my mother would call me to commiserate, but she hasn’t yet.  I fear she has sunk into a major football depression.  That Skip Holtz is good.  Very good.  My mother is still a Lou Holtz hater from his time [...]

Again with the fishing…

When the revolution comes and we have to go back to hunting and gathering for our food and livelihoods, I am going to rely entirely on S to provide us with fish.  The problem is that neither of us has an appreciation of fish as food.  We love them as pets.  We love them as [...]

Anticipation…

You will have to pardon me if I seem to have football on the brain these days.  It’s been a long off season and the wait for the new season is just about killing me.
In anticipation of what I am sure is going to be a tremendous year for the Pittsburgh Steelers, I shall now [...]

The 2008-09 NFL Season…

I’m sorry, but I just can’t wait for the regular season to begin.  I’ve already signed up for two fantasy football leagues, one with NFL.com and one with Yahoo.  The Yahoo league already has me set up and drafted and I still have to wait 24 days for the season to begin. 
My big fantasy draft [...]

Pre-season Steelers…

We were in Pittsburgh last night for Mr. S’s birthday party.  Good planning since the Steelers had their first pre-season game last night and it wouldn’t have been on television here in Cleveland.  While the party was something of a distraction, I did get to pay full attention to the Steelers first offensive series which ended with [...]
