On a long and lonesome highway East of Omaha

Good morning sports fans. It looks like the Packers and Steelers in the Big Game. Do you care? I am no fan of the Steelers, but I really can never root for the Packers. Mostly I don't care, but I will watch.

Here is some trivia for you.  Counting this year's contest, the AFC has been represented by only three teams in nine of the past ten years -- The Steelers(3), Patriots(4) or Colts(2).  Only the Raiders in XXXVIII broke the trend.

I assume you're not referring to the Metallica cover of "Turn the Page"...

Happy 2011, HB.

I am OK with that version. It was on my iPod for a long time, but is currently out of the rotation. I need to put it back.

Ah well then, there's hope for you yet! You ever hear Hetfield's cover of Jenning's "Don't you think..." at his tribute? Pretty damned good, albeit...a bit heavier.
