The Avenging Seahawk is rising-
No vengeance but that which is just.

Seahawks or bust
the National Football League's Seattle Seahawks are a winning machine.
Some people, or at least one person, thought that the Seahawks would get to the Super Bowl in 2013.
Well, the 49ers beat them to it, but who cares?
Last night's victory in Arizona puts Seattle 2 1/2 games ahead of San Francisco in the National Football Conference's West Division.
I don't know if that's important to you.
I don't know if you care or not.
It's important to me.
Russell Wilson, Marshawn Lynch, and company, look like the best football team in America outside of Denver.
See you in January.
Elsehow, the other National Football Conference powerhouses may say otherwise.
Like Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints, whose 6-0 record will be tested against the North Divison's Chicago Bears on Sunday.
The North is the scene of a two-way tie for first place, featuring the Detroit Lions, and the Bears.
Not to be outdone, the Green Bay Packers of Aaron 'Air Mail' Rodgers are also in the race in the North.
My prediction?
Ask me after thanksgiving.
Now we come to the NFC East.
Remember the New York Giants?
They won teh Super Bowl in 2012.
So much for that.
Right now they are in last place, behind Washington, Dallas, and Philadelphia.
My sympathies are with Philadelphia's Eagles.
I'm no Karnak.
No Nostradamus here.
But on December 22, 2013, Jay Cutler and the Chicago Bears invade Philly.
My prediction?
Seattle should already have home-field-advantage for the playoffs all sewn up.
Which leaves the question: can the Bears or Packers stop the Seahawks?
First things first.
Whether the Eagles go with Nick Foles, or Michael Vick, at quarterback, is immaterial.
I predict a 10-point win for the Eagles.
The Eagles will win the NFC East.
Unless the Bears are some kind of championship team, this loss should drop them, or keep them, in second place.
Go Seahawks!
Go Eagles!
Go Packers!
Go Bears!
Go!

the base-ball
Got yer classic Major League Baseball play-off teams.
* got yer Oakland Athletics (formerly of Philadelphia, formerly of Kansas City)
* got yer Detroit Tigers
* got yer St. Louis Cardinals
* got yer Washington Nationals (once known as the Senators)
* got yer San Francisco Giants (formerly of New York)
* got yer Cincinnati Reds (the erstwhile Big Red Machine)
* got yer New York Yankees (yes, THOSE Yankees)
* got yer Baltimore Orioles
So what's the big deal?
Let me tell you.
Dicey proposition or no, there's more to baseball's post-season than a roll of the dice.
There's the drama.
There's the controversy about performance-enhancing drugs.
There's the late-inning pitching fireworks.
Also?
There's the Chicago White Sox book.
I was pretty excited about this book.
Touted itself as a 2007 edition.
Turns out?
Book was published in the 1950s or so.
Yeah.
They re-printed it.
So, I'm all excited about this book.
Then I find out it's about fifty years old.
Not that being fifty years old is bad or sommething.
I'm jsut saying.
