The bills are dominant in that poll, I think Campbells has a corporate presence in upstate new york.

Also, footballoutsiders had a funny line about the upcoming afc championship:

Taking a page out of San Diego’s playbook, the Ravens find the easiest way to neutralize James Harrison is simply to hold him on every play. Phil Simms immediately praises the Baltimore offensive line for “playing at a playoff level.”

for the link love. welcome to my basement everyone.

as for the steelers/bills thing, i’m with jordan: i hate losing. especially if it involves the steelers. i went to the site prepared to vote the 16,000 times necessary, but they only let you vote once per day. crap.

as for trying to accomplish much of anything other than thinking about the steelers this week…forget it. i’ve watched the previous 2 games with the raisins at least 4 times already (i have them recorded). i thought i was doing better today until i checked the mail and i got my copy of steelers digest. forget it. and don’t forget that i’m a pastor and i have get to preach on sunday morning to 150 people about some things that are ultimately a bit more important than all of this (though, admittedly, it is hard for me to remember that right now). so, yeah, if i end up preaching about the importance of establishing the run, my congregation is just going to have to understand…

I just listened to the Tomlin press conference…I love the guy. He’s such a strong, precise, and passionate communicator. I’m sure he has no problem motivating his guys on Sundays. Also, he’s very decisive in what he says. His confidence is ever-increasingly apparent, and that is one of the most important traits a head coach can have.

I was growing anxious waiting for Sunday before I checked out the presser…now I’m counting the minutes.

Therefore I have to be there. Any advise on where I can get the best deals on last-minute tickets and accomodations? This would be my first AFC championship game and I have a great feeling about this one. Please whatever you can do to help this passionate Canadian Steeler fan make her birthday wish come true would be appreciated.

Thanks for the link to the Cambell’s contest and my blog…I appreciate it. Unfortunately our efforts may be too little too late, only 16,500 votes down. But, I can concede the soup if we get that 6th ring!

if the story ends with these ne’er do wells being arrested based on tip provided by Irvin and he stands up in court to testify. Otherwise, there is a good chance it never happened or it is two ne’er do wells giving another the professional courtesy of not robbing him.

I can’t wait for Sunday. Downside of the Internet [bless Al Gore] is that come Sunday I will have read everything that the announcers say.

Has got to get a better TV.
