Oh: should have added. Tonight's game (Ravens @ Lions) has huge playoff implications for both teams, as well as the NFC North and AFC North divisional leaders. I expect this game to be a brawl, as clearly both teams know exactly what is at stake here - the playoffs start tonight for both teams.

If you'd told me before today's game that the halftime score would be 10-7 in favor of either team, I'd have been pretty happy.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

This game sucks. I was just hoping for a good game, but we got screwed.

Well yea if you're a Seahawks fan. I'm not a fan of either team, so I just wanted to be entertained. This was over in the 1st quarter so the entertainment factor was only in laughing at how bad Denver played. No drama whatsoever.

They (ETA: "they" = the NFL) were due for one, though. There hadn't been a legit SB blowout since 2003, though I certainly was not expecting this game to produce one, at least not one where the Seahawks were the winner. Then again I came of age in the 80s, and about half of those games were over by halftime, it seemed.
