Fuck the Steelers . . . :) . . . they smacked the Chargers around like red-headed stepchildren . . .

here's hoping LT takes a paycut . . . Merriman comes back healthy . . . AJ loosens up a little and the Bolts come back next year and beat the crap outta Pittsburgh, New England, Indianapolis (again . . . ) and anybody else who comes between them and their first Superbowl win (i don't want to hear from any 49er fans, Brad!)

ahh . . . hope springs eternal . . . as for me i hope to be hiking or biking in the far north eastern reaches of California (Tule Lake, Eagle Lake) and far, far away from a TV . . . kinda rooting for AZ . . . because of the underdog thing and the aforementioned ass-kicking . . .
