Hoop Dreams

mcelwain.jpgBy now you've probably heard about the autistic high school kid Jason McElwain who got a chance to play in a game and in three minutes sank six three-pointers and another shot, for a total of 20 points. You can read the stories and watch the videos at CBS News and ESPN. It's a feel-good tear-jerker.

Steelers 21 Seahawks 10

The Wanous and Sitter families came over tonight to watch the Super Bowl. Lots of blunders by both teams, but the good guys won. They capitalized on most of their opportunities, and the Seahawks didn't.

Steelers Defeat Broncos

On Sunday after church we had lunch at Ponderosa with the Wanous and Lashlee families. Then watched the Steelers whoop the Broncos 34-17. Elliot and Luke played outside in the snow.

Steelers Defeat Colts

After church this morning we had lunch with the Wanous and Dresden families at the China Palace buffet. Then we went home and watched the Steelers-Colts game. My expectations weren't too high, so I was prepared for a Steelers loss. Then they jumped out to a dominating 21-3 lead. Then the Steelers and the refs tried to give the game to the Colts. We were thrilled to see the NFL's most -accurate kicker miss a 46-yard field goal to preserve the Steelers' win. It reminded me of last year's playoff game against the Jets, except the Steelers deserved to lose against the Jet's but benefited from missed field goals. Big Ben is now the first quarterback of the Super-Bowl-era to lead his team to the conference championship in both of his first two seasons.
