Feburary in Illinois

Oof, sounds like I'm going to be spending much of my Feburary in Illinois! I hear it can get cold there. Something about some sort of lake. I dunno. But, I have to be there the first week in February, again the next week for three days of training, then I am here for the week, then I have two weeks of more training going into the first week of March. Lucky me!

Also, the AFC Championship game is this week. I am a huge Steelers fan, who, coincidently, happen to be the greatest sports team in the history of this planet. For some reason, Josh likes the Patriots. So make sure you tune into the game this week - then, when the Patriots lose, create a mental image of Josh suffering terrible emotional pain. Then laugh. Because I sure will be.

Actually, the game will be a great one, as the Steelers went 15-1 and the Patriots 14-2. Both teams feature excellent defenses, punishing running games and QBs of remarkable efficiency with ice water flowing through their veins. I think it will be one of the best games we've seen in a while, and it actually isn't looking as rosy for our Steelers as I may have alluded to in the paragraph above. So watch. Because between Josh and I, it will be the only thing one of us talks about for weeks.
