This is my opinion on sports. I will mostly be giving my opinion on New York sports. My intention with this sports blog is just to give my opinion and maybe throw around some questions if not answering them. If any opportunities come along from doing this, I'd relish them because I have a passion for sports.

NFL Championship games
Both games had a similar feel to them, at lest to start. Both the Packers and Steelers jumped out to early leads and let their opponents back into the game. In Chicago the Packers and Aaron Rodgers jumped out to an early 14-0 lead at the half. To begin the second half Todd Collins the Bears backup quarterback who relieved the starter Jay Cutler who left with a MCL injury wasn't able to do anything. On the final drive of the third quarter Caleb Hanie the Bears third quarterback was able to finally punch it into the end zone, to get chicago on the scoreboard. After an interception by Green Bay and one more Bear touchdown, we had our final score Green Bay 21, Chicago 14. Caleb Hanie was not the hero and now the Packers are NFC Champions. Aaron Rodgers is on his way to being an elite NFL quarterback. In Pittsburgh the Jets could not do anything in the first half, they were missing tackles left and right. The Steelers jumped out to a 24-0 lead before the Jets added a field goal right before half time, to go into the locker room trailing 24-3. All the second half scoring was done by the Jets. The Jet scoring in the Second half started with a touchdown on the opening drive. After that score the Jet commutation broke down and they had the ball for 8:06 and could not score ending the drive on the 1 yard line. The Jets managed a safety and a touchdown in the final moments but it wasn't enough as Ben Roethlisberger and the steelers won the AFC title by a score of 24-19. We are now set for Super Bowl XVL between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Green Bay Packers. Aaron Rodgers con solidify himself as an elite quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger can become on of the all time greats with his third ring and Steeler coach Mike Tomlin can win his second Super Bowl by age 40, those are just some story lines.
