OK, Bart, $5 it is. It'll mean my lunch money for the week, but I
love my Steelers.

The Jets game made me VERY nervous! I think we'll be able to tell in
the first 10 minutes who's going to win.

It's 14* f , wind chill -2*F. We got about 10''. I plowed about 6''
yesterday at 4PM, snowed 4'' through the night. Dang but it's cold
out.

BTW, I'll be in Manhattan tomorrow morn,
Scotty

Scotty,

I'll let you off easy. How about $5--just to make
the game interesting? Or we could make it a beer.
I won't let you off for less than a beer.

I wish the Pats were playing the Jets at Foxboro for
the Conference Championships tomorrow. The
Jets had the Steelers beat and blew it, just like San
Diego did the week before. Can you believe it?
Two weeks in a row!

That game last week assured me the Patriots will
beat the Steelers.

If it were the Jets tomorrow, I'd have plenty of takers
on a small wager. Jet's fans out-number me here in
SW Connecticut. And, they bet with their hearts, so I
could clean up.

Right now we have a foot of snow and about 12 degrees
out. Tomorrow it drops to 2 degrees at night. The
weather looks very cold. Pittsburgh weather will be in the
20's. Lets see how Cheeseburger does with or without a
glove.

I'll take any amount up to $100 where I take the Patriots.

We woke up to -8F real Godknowswhatwindchill and sunny...the cedar waxwings,
cardinals and nuthatches are thronged around the feeder and the all 3
varieties of woodpeckers are at the suet this morning...we cleared out over
a foot last night..looks like we're back to a normal winter pattern here
instead of the stuff we've been having the last 6 years or so...

Only 14 inches here. I'm worried about the wind.
Gusts over 40 mph. I hope my shrink wrap holds
together.

I was going to suggest my boat against your truck, but I'm thinking our

It seems like all the predictions become meaningless at kickoff time.
Ideally, this one will be won in the trenches. I give the Patriots the
edge because they have the long history of special teams, turnovers and
field goals making the difference in otherwise tight games. I don't
think either team will get blown out early tonight.

You got it easy - Its 12F here now. I blew 24 inches this morning, and
there's another 6+ now. Fortunately its tapering off now so I'll be
able to finish my stuff and help the neighbors before game time.

Wrong again. It boils down to coaching. Cower is going to out-coach Bellacheck(SP?).
His players are going to rough up the sissy Patriots. Sissy Brady will go down in the
second quarter with a concussion. The Patriots just aren't tough enough.

Steelers 35, sissy Pats 17.

I have spoken.

Bart hasn't replied yet, wonder if he's getting cold feet?

Patriots 41 Steelers 27

Did you notice that late in the third quarter, the score was what I
predicted, Patriots 34, Steelers 20?

Not only did I pick the winner, I nearly guess the score perfectly.

You just picked the wrong length of the game! Although the Steelers
kept fighting, it was clear at that point that their spirit was broken.
Two plays later was the Wilson inception and all hope fizzled.

I wonder how many others here have played on a national championship team.
I wonder how many others have coached an undefeated season.
I wonder how many others have coached a team to 6 consecutive shut outs.
Coaching is critical at draft. After you pick the right horses, just try to
not screw up.
It's all about picking the right horses.
