I am more of a College Football fan, than NFL fan, but I love this weekend's Final 4 for the Super Bowl

On the Road to Super Bowl XLX a/k/a Super Bowl 45 on Sunday, February 6Th!

The AFC: the New York Jets vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers ...

• The old AFL's first Super Bowl winner, the Jets of Super Bowl III


• The top franchise in Super Bowl history for the NFL, the Steelers, winners of Super Bowl IX, X, XIII, XIV, XL and XLIII


• The Jets feature former Iowa RB Shonn Greene


• The Steelers were always good growing up with the Steel Curtain of the 1970s

The NFC: a battle between the two oldest rivals in the NFL: the Chicago Bears vs. the Green Bay Packers ...

• While I am a Packer fan, I have enjoyed watching Bears head coach Lovie Smith develop and MLB Brian Urlacher has been a classic linebacker for the Monsters of the Midway


• Is there a QB in the NFL playing as well as the Packers Aaron Rodgers right now?


• The Packers feature former Iowa OT Bryan Bulaga, a rookie RT for Green Bay

It is a quiet Saturday for me this weekend. Though, there will be plenty of football on Sunday, but for Saturday:

• Carole is off with our youngest to Muscatine for Washington's Celebration, Momentum & Vivace Show Choir competitions


• Our middle daughter is at college


• Our oldest is off skiing this weekend with her former classmates


• So, it's just me and our dog and a quiet day of work and relaxation ...
