Four teams left. Still can’t believe the season has flown by so quickly. I can’t remember a set of playoff games that carried more emotion with it, and I talked about it today with my post at EveryJoe. You may think that emotions have no business in football, but I would beg to differ. Teams that, on paper, shouldn’t technically win can pull off a victory (seemingly out of nowhere) simply because they have the drive (heart, emotion) to do it. While others have the stats and players, and yet lose because their heads (or hearts) weren’t in it.

I may get some crap from the guys at EveryJoe for my stance on this. Some say that there is no crying in sports, and I say there is crying that no one likes to talk about. So hey – I’m a girl, in touch with my emotions, and I cry – I’ll talk about it.

In case you missed some of my posts this week, I talked about why a win in the Super Bowl is the only thing that really counts, how Rex Ryan’s comments about Charles Woodson as Defensive Player of the Year really bugged me, the rundown from my predictions last week, and the sad death of Chicago Bear defensive end Gaines Adams.

I’m off to church and then a day watching hours and hours of football. Could there be anything better than those two things? (In that order!)
