Sat around Saturday and Sunday in the same old pajamas. I love my flannel pj's especially when the rain is pounding and the skies are black. A fire burning in the fireplace, a cozy spot on the sofa, a hot cup of coffee and this ole gal is living large.
The agenda was set.
Saturday's AFC match up the Jags at Steelers. The NFC contest the Redskins at Seahawks.
The Sunday games, G-men at Bucs and the Titans at the Bolts.
The wild card playoffs are games I look forward to, but the Redskins dream ended in Seattle . Shortly after losing 35-14 Joe Gibbs announced his re-retirement.
The Redskins were clearly out-matched but they fought hard.
The Jags gave the Steelers fits. This was a great game and one that I expected the Jags to win. I like the Jags power running game and physical stile of play. Watch out Pats.
The G-Men really surprised me for the second week in a row. Is it possible that Eli and Coughlin have finally found their mojo?
The Giants defense is playing extremely well and they are true contenders entering this critical game against the divisional rival Cowboys.

The Chargers aren't perfect, but good enough to move on. |
Picks for the Divisional Games this weekend:
Seahawks at the Packers
Mike Holmgren goes "home". His legacy with the Packers evident. The reunion of coach and quarterback is a moment in time when these two football greats may bid adieu to the gridiron after this season. Lots of emotion in this game.
Pick: Packers
Jags at Pats:
The Jags are 13 point underdogs, but I like them and I am going way out on a limb and calling the upset.
Pick Jags
The Chargers at the Colts. Two of the finest AFC teams will make this s great game with lots of points. I like the Colts at home.
Pick Colts
NY Giants at Dallas
There is reason to believe that the G-Men may have finally found their rhythm. I can't depend on the sun and the moon to decide this game, but I will pick simply based on my loathing of all things Cowboys.
Pick G-Men.
Femmefan is busy running for elected office and is a bit distracted as the election approaches on February 5, 2008.
Wish me luck. If you want to learn more about my bid for Pinole City Council and maybe even make a campaign contribution (thank you!) please go to www.ivettericco.com
I'll be a bit more focused after the election!
