Out of the Blue - Blue's News Story

Well that was certainly action-packed NFL playoff Saturday. I know a couple of time-shifters read this, so I'll mask my spoiler in stating the obvious: I had faith in Tennessee, but still thought they would prevail. And it never even occurred to me that the Packers could lose that game at home. And just like that, both number one seeds are gone? So who does that leave in the driver's seat in the NFC. Of course, Tom freakin' Brady. Wild stuff.
