Thanks to the Pittsburgh Steelers inability to cover the spread that should have given them hope---my Christmas is canceled. See what happens when I have too much time on my hands! I really need to get out more and gambling should be illegal!
Just kidding--it is a lot of fun as long as you don't lose more than you have. I know many of you are big Steeler supporters, but I think I should have gone with my old ways of betting...
PICK THE BEST LOOKING QUARTERBACK! When I was a teenie-booper I would spend every Sunday at my Nonnies house watching and picking every game on the tube and eating the best damn sauce in the country! My uncle and I used to put our money where our mouth was and attack the NFL lineup: 2/3 team parlays, teasers, straight wagers, and my old favorite, "I'll take the points--love to support the underdog."
My strategy used to be designed around the color of their uniforms and the attractiveness of the quarterbacks. I used to win all the time. I loved the Dolphins (Danny Marino and that uniform made my car payment many a times). Now that I am older, I still enjoy the occasional dabble in the Sunday excitement, but I think I need to go back to my old ways.
So, Tom Brady (who is mighty fine) and the color blue (which I love) would have made me a big winner yesterday. This has also worked well with Brady Quinn (Notre Dame) in the past. Another fine example of why I need to follow my feminine instinct.
For the record---I know I am supposed to be a big "Steeler Supporter" but damn they play like a bunch of school girls sometimes. I don't care how good New England is supposed to be.....that was embarrassing.

Honestly, I'd take Big Ben any day over Cro-Magnon man, Tom Brady aka not taking resposibility as a father according to celebrity gossip!!! (and it's all true:))....I must believe that it's the coaches who called the plays to showcase such a fiasco!!!! Embarrassment to say the least...I don't want to be a Pittsburgh fair weather fan, but it was a waste of time to watch! I suppose it's better than losing to Miami, although we did lose to the Jets...Seriously, I'm sleeping with the enemy by dating a BROWNS fan...GROSS!!! And they're catching up to us...Now, that's embarrasing! Although I'd love to just throw in that another father who lacks responsibility that I would like to do is Matt Leinart!!! Yummy...
