Wow! What a crazy upset! I couldn't watch but I can't wait to see the highlights later tonight. Go Denver!
"I tried to play golf, but I found out I wasn't very good." -Joey Votto on his offseason hobby search
An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldn’t do. “I can’t skate or play hockey,” Votto said. “Well, I can skate ... but I can’t stop.”
Go Gators!
As a long time Broncos fan I am happy tonight!

With Oakland out my routing interest is as follows on the AFC side:
1 Houston (Love the story with Johnson and the team finally making the playoffs)
2 Baltimore (Still respect what Baltimore did to Oakland in the Black Hole the year they won)
3 Denver (Tebow is a great story but he is still a Donk and thus I cannot bring myself to cheer for anything having to do with Elway)
4 New England (See above minus the feel goodness of Tebow times 100, I respect NOTHING about that organization and the precieved hand outs the NFL has given them).
Cincinnati would have been #2, Pittsburgh would have been tied with Denver.

With that said, getting a home game because you won an inferior divisional title needs fixed. Seeding in all professional leagues who insist on divisional play should be based on overall record, not the good fortune of sliding into the playoffs with an 8-8 record in a division no one wants to win. Wildcards help to even out some inequities caused by divisional play. Now, go the next step and base seeding on record, not some lame divisional champion status. The Steelers should have been rewarded, not penalized, for having a 12-4 record in the toughest division in the conference.

I might get laughed at later but I jumped all over the Saints at -3.5.
I picked the 49ers outright. Feeling good about it right now.
Down 17 is a dust bunny for them, down 10 is pocket lint.
