EASY CHOICE by Tannen

Interesting topic has surfaced for sports fans. If given a choice would you prefer to attend next week's historical inauguration in D.C or one of Sunday's NFL Conference Championship games? As much contempt as I hold for the current administration and hope that I have for the Obama people, I'd prefer to be in Pittsburgh for Steelers/Ravens. The political history has already been made. That was election night when John McCain made his concession speech. The Illinois senator has done enough talking. I don't care much for these kinds of affairs unless it's a wedding. Obama will be judged on what happens in the stock, housing and job markets, Iraq, Afganistan, U.S security, healthcare and other critical issues. The inauguration is a party, period! How cool would it be to be at Heinz Field when those passionate Steeler fans greet their guys with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. Remember, a Pittsburgh win and it's trip number 7 to the big one, only topped by the Dallas Cowboys.
