A Stupid Game Anyway... From Harriet Hamilton:Thanks to you passing on Peter Olrich's super bowl workout I have a much greater appreciation of the NFL play clock. Even though I live in Atlanta I got to the point in the 4th quarter where I was thinking, "Let it go, already. You've lost. Just get it over with." I cursed every time either quarterback would go back to pass: "No, no, run it up the middle!" The first 4 minutes of the 4th quarter took about 30 minutes to play. And I was already tired. (Luckily the 3rd quarter only lasted 27 minutes.) Then those silly Falcons started calling time outs at the end just to use them up-they didn't even have the ball. After over 2 and a half hours I was starting to lose my enthusiasm for the whole project, although I did sprint the last 2 minutes. It's a stupid game, and I've never liked John Elway, anyway.How Far Did You Go? From Winter Park Men's Crew:We read on your excrutiating erg workout page about your superbowl erg. Three members of the Winter Park High School men's crew team are writing to let you know that it is now half time... we're still going strong at about 17000 down each. We'll resume the piece after the halftime show. We would like to know how many others did this same erg, and how far they went. Could you please ask others how far they went and how they did. |
