| And The Saints could NOT go marching in... But the cardiac Pack have picked up right where they left off, in giving me the fits. Gotta love it.
So my prediction for this season......
If I'm gonna halt the streak (currently on a three year run) of accuurately predicting the Super bowl winner, then i will halt it in style, therefore...
The Packers will repeat as champions. I thought their first game would be their hardest challenge of the year and they survived. But that Saints offence (mostly Brees) is scary.
The Packers will beat the pats to repeat as champions.
There, its on record. |

| I'm one of those rare men that women love: I never got football and do not have an interest in learning it. Funny thing, my wife adores me. |

Same here. When I finally found a sport I liked (hockey), my wife got into it too so that we could enjoy it together._________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

The wife puts up with it. |

| I saw that Saints/Packers game. For the most part it seemed pretty evened out. No turnovers by either team & no big plays other than the TD from the punt return. The Saints tried for an onside kick but it didn't work out for them. Hopefully the Saints will still have a good season this year.
Mainly I keep up with the Crimson Tide. NFL just isn't that big around here. Everyone here is a college football fan for 1 of several teams in the SEC.
I never did get into Hockey. |

| The only reason I watched that Packers/Saints game is to see my boy Randall Cobb dominate!! I'm glad everyone else has finally started to realize how athletic of a player he is! I'm glad he was fortunate enough to go to a team where he can help contribute to a Championship team right off the bat! Around here in KY, we're all college basketball crazy! |

Actually, The Saints fumbled the ball away on their second offensive play and the Pack turned it into 7. They also turned it over on downs late in the forth. Add with the night Brees had, and its the reason the saints only punted once the whole game.
As for hockey, I am Canadian. Hockey is to Canada what Football is to Texas. (Or the south in general). |

| That old fooseball is the devil. If it ain't baseball, I have no time for it. Although I am gonna be subjected to watching the U.T. Vols once this season when I take my girlfriend to a game. |

Yeah,I forgot about that fumble. They had a turnover but no interceptions. |

| Just recently watched a program on NFL Network called "A football Life" the episode was one focused on Jerome Brown and Reggie White. The two great DBs of the eagles. Both men had their lives cut short. Even though I knew before, it was interesting to see and hear some of what Reggie White stood for. He was a believer and let people know it without throwing it at you. The kind of man I would loved to have met. But I will have to wait for that meeting. Reggie White was someone you could look up to. |

| Hockey is cool.
I like race biking, no not a motor, but a bicycle. My husband likes it too so after my hernia finally was over can take our bicycles to make trips. My problem now is that I love geocaching and making bicylce trips. |

How is that a problem? Geobiking is great. You get in shape and find caches.  |

| That's true. When you have a serie of cache, it's perfect to take that bike. |

There is a paved biking trail down around Tullahoma, TN that 6.8 miles and has 19 caches on it. I just might try to hit that soon. The terrain is supposed to be fairly easy even for a non-experienced bike rider like myself._________________  I might have decided, or maybe not, that I should or shouldn't, depending on the issue or non-issue, to possibly share or not share, any thoughts, opinions, or facts (that might not be deemed factual by some), due to possible fear of any misinterpretation or retribution. |

There's a long biking trail between Waltham and Aylmer, QC (Waltham is near Pembroke and Aylmer is near Ottawa) that encompasses 115 caches. I may do it someday. |
