Well, she�s certainly back in the public eye.
Somehow we all ended up cheering for Carolina, in this, the battle of the great unknowns, since any team we could be excited about was eliminated in a heart-wrenching game weeks ago. Nobody in the Midwest gives a rip about either team, and we�re pretty sure Carolina isn�t a state, city or region, so we�re doubly dubious.
We knew the Patriots would win, but one look at that smarmy GM, and we couldn�t take it. But more important, we�re all Bears fans here, so we�re far more comfortable pulling for the underdog, even if Ted Washington�s a Patriot now.
By god, those Panthers had style. They were a joy to watch.
I wish they�d pulled it off, if only to see whether their Ted Kennedy-esque owner would crack a smile.
We were disappointed, shouting at the television, irritating the Fuzzman with our girlish shrieks, but then we had apple custard pie, and all was well again.
