I’ll say this about Kevin Gilbride. He may not have known what to do with Kordell Stewart, but he’s smart enough to know that the Giants win when they give Tiki Barber the damn ball.

So the Panthers are eliminated from the postseason, just like the Steelers. Both my teams were in conference championship games last season, and now… well, let’s just say my interest in the NFL postseason has waned just a little. New Year’s Eve was not the day I thought I’d be saying, “Well, at least my fantasy team won.”

To be honest, I probably shouldn’t be awake right now. I’ve been out dancing until past 3:00 AM the last two nights, and I’ll be out again tonight. I even have an awesome dinner date lined up for this evening. I should have slept in until noon today, but I have an internal clock that screams, “Football Sunday, bitches!”, and here I am awake and in front of this computer.

Amazingly enough, I think I still want to go out and blog these season-ending games. This could be Bill Cowher’s last game as Steelers head coach today, and this had better be Dan Henning’s last game as Panthers offensive coordinator. Plus, other teams have playoff shots. So there might be something worth writing about today. Besides, there’s an Original Steakhouse and Sports Theatre in Asheville. I’ve missed the Theatre since it closed down in Durham. It would be fun to hang out in that environment one last time this season.

So here we go. One more for the road, on the road. But first, I need a shower. See y’all in a few…
