Boring Championship Games

How about those blowouts in the NFL conference championships today?

Given the chores I needed to do, that was probably best. It was a productive day for me.

And the Texans can get Gary Kubiak named as head coach now.

I wonder how long it will take him to announce that Reggie Bush will be the team’s first pick in the draft? It will be fun to watch Richard Justice and John McClain sputter if he announces it sooner than
