Oh that Coach Tomlin...

I'm slowly falling in love with this man:


I think he's feeling it too...
To Dustin's horror, he might end up married to a Steelers fan. Not today though....We won tickets to the game, but I couldn't justify sitting in the "21/feels like 7" degree weather that is being predicted. I did want to dress up like Ralphie in A Christmas Story ("I can't put my arms down!") and eat free food, but in the end it just didn't seem worth it. We decided to let the real fans stick it out, and gave the tickets to a couple of friends who truly bleed black and gold (well, they would if it wasn't too cold for liquids).
In the meantime, I'll watch the game on TV, and enjoy online videos of my new love.

  1. Courtney this makes me so happy! Tell Dustin it's not that bad being married to a Steelers fan. At least this week we did him a favor and beat the Cowboys!

  3. Your posts are so very entertaining! I love the movie reference....however, with all gentleness, it was Ralphie's brother, Randy, that was all bundle up and couldn't put his arms down. Minor detail, though.

    AND, if I beat you in our league, I'll let you buy me a leg lamp. I hear they're from Italy.

  4. I can't believe you gave up those tix! (Well, you maybe, but not Dustin!) What a game! I'm old and can justify watching from the comfort of my easy chair... but this could have been one of those lasting memories for your scrapbook. Well, at least you're coming around to rooting for the right team! Go Stillers!
    Hope you don't lose but if you do, tell Rachel to be careful with that leg lamp - - they're fragile (pronounced "fra-jeel-ay").
    Love you... Daddy
