thanks for the reply.  I didn't realize you were a Pittsburgh fan.  Growing up, near Boston, while the Patriots were horrible, the Steelers were my 2nd favorite team.  I had a Franco jersey.  In the end, sports are about breaks from the reality of life.  In today's world there is more overlap unfortunately.  A few of the local sports talk radio guys have a saying they repeat often, "greatest thing about sports?  it isn't scripted and anything can happen."  Living in Atlanta for 27 years, going through last years game was tough.  I am a fan of both teams and while wishing the best for the Falcons, wanted the Patriots to win.  How it went down was tough on the city and the city's reputation.  

I was more disappointed with the Falcons performance this season than the Patriots ultimate loss to the Eagles.

Hope spring hits soon and we all can enjoy the water again.
