The Pittsburgh Steelers got jumped on yesterday by the Baltimore Cravens who wants to be like us, multiple Super Bowl champs. I was sick until Sunday night around 10:30 when the New York Jets stole on the Dallas Cowboys. How you doing Queen? Things will get better soon. Keep the faith!

Hey Walt - wasn't it cool? lol!!!! I can't talk we lost to the Bengals, so we are officially 1-12 on opening day since we returned in '99. But as a football fan, I'm going to keep it real with you Walt - Ben Roethlisberger holds on to the ball for more than 5 seconds damn near on every passing play, his luck should have been run out on him a long time ago. In the days of Dan Marino, Joe Montana, Bernie Kosar, Warren Moon, Jim Kelly, Troy Aikman and a few others - it was a sin to have the ball more than 4 seconds. But this generation, I guess, considers themselves to be the generation of mobile and agile quarterbacks who can extend the play and make something out of nothing. My boy (Daniel "Colt" McCoy) was guilty of that this past weekend too. We got Colt taking on the Colts this weekend and I've prepared myself with additional libations for the abundance of yellow flags to possibly be thrown. After watching the Broncos and Raiders last night, I don't feel as bad as I did after the 11 penalties we received against the Bengals.
