Gamut of Emotions

This weekend brought forth the full gamut! Well, figuratively speaking. Saturday began at 7:30am with Brian, Mel's cousin...Jake, and Myself heading to Detroit for the North America International Auto Show!! How cool is that!? I had never been to Detroit, let alone to the NAIAS. Of course, we went to the Indianapolis Auto Show over the holidays and that was pretty cool, but this was INCREDIBLE! The roughly 4 and half hour drive was pretty painless and we got there around 2:30pm and stayed until about 8:30pm. Stay tuned, I should have some picks posted here soon. I have to get them resized.

Sunday, was a different story. The Indianapolis Colts played what was ultimately their final game this season. They came out of the gates pretty rusty but ended up making a game of it. However, they fell short. More specifically, Mike Vanderjagt BLEW what, for him, could be considered a chip shot for a chance to send the game to overtime. I found myself asking at the end of the game -- Nick Harper, why....WHY exactly did you cut back toward the middle of the field when, had you continued outside even with a stab wound in your leg, you could've outrun not only Ben Roethl....Big Ben, but the entire Steeler team since they were stunned at the 2 yard line.

Anyways....I do NOT know who I am gonna root for now. Let's weigh the options:

Broncos: They beat the Pats, so thats cool. My brother and his family live in Denver so theres a connection. I like their team too, seem pretty tough. Prolly my top choice right now.

Seahawks: Call me old fashion, but we're talking about Seattle Seahawks. You cannot only NOT root for them, if you paid attention in the 80's, then you'd realize that the Seahawks just suck. (good year this year though)

Panthers: Gotta love Steve Smith -- even though I traded him away for Drew Bledsoe and Rod Smith during Fantasy Football. (....hey hey, this is when Bledsoe was on fire. You're welcome Toph) Dig their defense and they've seemed to have stayed under the radar all year. This is a good choice too.

Steelers: I guess there is something to say about rooting for the team that knocked yours out of contention. I know alot of Steeler fans, so I could just join the bandwagon....but again...they DID beat my team.

Stay tuned for my CHOICE, and if you'd like to -- throw in your input with a comment. I'd like your advice!

Until next time.....
