Who’da thunk that starting Doug Pederson over Drew Bledsoe was the smart choice? Granted Pederson didn’t exactly light things up, but he didn’t turn the ball over either. With a little luck tonite I’ll actually pull out a win against MrCynical, hehe. (Of course I would have started Bledsoe had I been certain he’d play, but I’m taking credit for it anyways.) ---

That’s what has me spooked… NO winning 6? Scary. Should I start watching to see if Jesus is headed back our way? Or if he’s doing this to wake us up? I’ll wait and see if they make it past game one of the playoffs before I make up my mind. 😃 ---

For them to win 1 playoff game is all I ask!
