Well, it was fun while it lasted

Because it bears repeating: bring me the skull of Norv Turner.

Sadly, this is the worst possible outcome of the season -- good enough to keep Turner around, bad enough to be unacceptable. Grrgh. Still, good luck Steelers and all the birdie-teams.

How to Tell You're Still Pretty Football-Stupid:

My husband is watching the game on the DVR now--so far this weekend, he's watched everything on tape delay, and been religious about keeping himself unspoiled. We're currently watching third quarter and the score is pretty close.

I, not particularly caring about the game and not really thinking, thought your phrasing was funny, so I read "bring me the skull of Norv Turner" aloud.

>_<

Husband is kind of mad at me right now. I deserve it.

As a Pats fan, I'm happy. No Mannings (I love seeing the incredible overrated Eli do his version of the Manning Face) and the Pats get a better second-round pick with SD keeping out of the Super Bowl.

If only 11-5 had gotten us in over the team that spent all of one week at over .500.

I have no delusions about who played the better game today, but sakes, the Steelers had a lot of calls and non-calls go their way. When Rivers got slammed head-first into the ground on his (third?) sack, and all the flags stayed pocketed... that was when I said "Oh, it's going to be one of those games, then.

So yeah, about the worst possible outcome for hopes of ending the Norv Era.
