Go out on top after tonight’s win. You’ve tied your brother for most Super Bowl wins in the family, you’ve tied your boss Mr. Elway for most wins by a QB in the organization, and I don’t think you could throw a football thirty yards downfield again if you had to. Congratulations on a great …
Got all the laundry done and (mostly) folded and put away. Got the makings for the crab dip and made it without scorching the saucepan too badly. Declined to get Panthers or Broncos jerseys to wear while watching. If the 49ers were in it, now… I guess I’m ready. Vegas has the late money tilting …

Norm Chow had a stellar career in the college ranks when he was hired by the University: Chow was introduced as UH’s 22nd head coach and brought with him a resume that included being on the coaching staff of three national championship …
Washed two loads of clothing, emptied the dishwasher, endured an hour of heavy rain, went to two different stores in search of flying insect killer, missed the deadline for the “Car Wash Saturday” fundraiser at the church down the hill, listened to the U of Hawai’i blow a sure win with two minutes left in …
