Xmas Eve Gameday
So the Pittsburgh Steelers get a revenge match today at Heinz Field against the Baltimore Ravens. JJ Cooper’s game preview is here. Also, the Carolina Panthers continue to play out a string attempt to stave off playoff elimination in the Georgia Dome against the Atlanta Falcons. My game preview — which, I freely admit, is considerably lame this week — is here.
No liveblog today. I’m being the good son and going with my parents to Xmas Eve mass this afternoon. At some point, my dad will make note of all the kids in the congregation, turn to me and say something to the effect of, “Son, every 30-something in this building is procreating except you.” As soon as the service is over, though, I’ll be the one looking up scores and fantasy stats on my Treo. Because that’s just how I roll.
Against all odds, I’m also playing for the office league title this week. I would like Peyton Manning to throw at least two touchdowns to Marvin Harrison, and I would like Maurice Jones-Drew to score three touchdowns in a losing effort, because a Jags loss would help the Steelers’ playoff hopes. Pittsburgh staving off elimination for one more week is present enough for me at this point…
So yeah, enjoy the games today, folks, and since I probably won’t see you until later next week, have a happy Xmas on Monday.
