I had to Mention These Two Things

1. The Steelers' Coach, Mike Tomlin in the post-game conference, while wearing the newly-made "2008 NFC Champions Pittsburgh Steelers hat" said, "I tip my hat to the Ravens...." yet failing to literally tip his hat, questioning the conviction of his statement.

2. While talking about the significance to African-American NBA players regarding Obama's nomination, Bulls Guard Ben Gordon said "You'd see some players write 'Omama' on their sneakers with the, you know, expl-, eplantion points after it.....you know it meant a lot to them."

I saw these within a 3 minute span tonight. I love athletics.
