Coach Obama

So the Steelers won the Super Bowl for the 6th time. That's a good look. The coach is a young brother running things too, kinda like President Obama is a young brother running things. This is good. Although in our new post racial world that I am hopeful we will create together, this ideally will matter less and less. Eventually. But it still kind of matters I think. Doesn't he kinda look like Omar Epps though?



However I was rooting for the Cardinals for their underdog story, Kurt Warner's former shelf stocking self and their lovely red and white uniforms. Not to mention the big play maker in the game, Santonio Holmes, went to the OSU and since I went to another midwestern school that has an INTENSE rivalry with the OSU (and in spite of their own lovely red and white uniforms) I am structurally incapable of rooting for any OSU alums.



But my hat's off to the Steelers, it was a great game - the only one I watched all season of course despite growing up on football like most Americans - and I'm going to sleep feeling warm and fuzzy because I just saw a bunch of people give their very best and fight the good fight. But first I gotta wait for my heart rate to go down because that was all quite intense at the end there. I wonder if that counts as doing cardio?
