Damn Wood Elves

Congrats to the San Diego Chargers in beating my beloved Seahawks. For various familial reasons I was unable to see most of the first half (just the 1.5 minute scoring drive by the 'Hawks at the end). I'll have to re-watch it this morning, but the defense looked slow and sluggish in the heat. The offense scoring quickly didn't help when the Chargers weren't giving them any breathers, sustaining long drives in the 110 degree sun.

Tricksy elves. Saw they chose to wear white at home, too.

Have you ever played one of those Blood Bowl games where you have a smashy-type team against O So Breakable hobbits or skaven or wood elves and just...can't...get...casualties due to an off-night of dice rolling? Frustrating. That was what it felt like watching the Seattle defense struggle against the twinkle-eyed Phillip Rivers. Ugh.

But it's a long season, and I'm not worried yet. Besides, watching the Niners game did a lot to restore my good humor.
; )

So enjoy it, Bolts. You're the first team to knock off the champs.

Elfin? Yes. And Antonio Gates is ancient.

  2. They still looked a ton better than my anemic Steelers.

      The Pitt was lucky to get out of Cleveland with a win. Not sure why people were picking the Steelers to be the strength of the North.
