(no subject)
Well, sports fans, though I liked the Broncos-Pats game this afternoon, it was a miserable football game tonight. And I was trying to get it off my mind just a minute ago when, on my Tumblr Radar, there appeared the following brief account of the results. Annoyed, I reblogged it, appending a small footnote.
**************************
Associated Press: The Seattle Seahawks held off the San Francisco 49ers 23-17 in the NFC title game and will play the Denver Broncos in the Super Bowl. It’s the first trip to the big game for the Seahawks (15-3) since they lost to Pittsburgh after the 2005 season.

* A touchdown they only got because of bad officiating against the ‘Niners - the refs miscalling several plays, including a “roughing the kicker” and a possession on the Hawks’ goal line (to the consternation of the TV commentators - and the rest of who believe San Francisco was the better team!)
