A time to give...

I went with my team from work to the local Toys for Tots distribution center yesterday. What an experience! We unloaded and sorted two 18 wheeler trailors full of toys! We sorted the toys by age group and then had to to take them out to the shelves (we were in an old grocery store) of the appropriate age group. People are so generous!!

The bikes were just amazing. There were eight sections for boys/girls in different age groups. The space was maybe half a city block large, and the bikes were lined up one next to another next to another... all crammed in.

One suggestion... if you plan on donating toys to Toys for Tots, likely your local distribution center has the same issues. There are lots of toys for the younger children but when you get to the 10-12 year olds and then the 13-15 year olds, there is hardly anything. So, if you plan on buying, focus on those age groups!! :)

Yeah, runnin' your mouth doesn't make you win.

Anthony Smith is an idiot. Why run your mouth? You just end up looking like a fool.

Can they do it??

So, the big question I see on ESPN.com is, "Will the Steelers beat the Patriots on Sunday?". There are lots of articles saying why they will or won't. Much to my enjoyment, most of the articles are saying that the Steelers really have a good chance! If ANY team (left on the Patriot's list) has a chance, they're saying it is my beloved Steelers.



Here is my favorite article on the topic, Thirty-three reasons the Patriots will lose on Sunday

My personal favorite quote:
"No. 1: Pittsburgh is a city with its priorities in order. The first thing you see at the airport are two life-sized mannequins: one is of patriot George Washington, clad in red, white and blue and looking like he stepped off the side of New England's helmet; and the other is Franco Harris making his Immaculate Reception. Franco's mannequin looks like he could take George. "

ps - I apologize for posting again without any pictures from the MNF game that my mom and I went to, known as the mudbowl of 2007. Sheesh!
