Oh Yeah! Looks like the back of a Pittsburg Steeler football player and he appears to be sacrificing a child!

I'm certain that Drew values what he's holding in that photo far higher than any trophy, knowing Drew.

Hey now, that's actually GOLD, not yellow, on the uniform.

Sheesh, any good NFL fan knows the difference, unless they're in Pittsburgh....

Yeah, I was watching the press conference after the game, heard it in real-time....and started laughing so hard it almost hurt.



Dungy deserved it, what a putz, picking the Colts to win by 17 against the #1 offense in the NFL.

Wow and I liked watching Dungy on NBC, oh well. All I can say is I'm so stoked for the Saints and NOLA.

So did I...I always liked Dungy, both as a coach and as an analyst, but now...not so much.

That prediction: garbage homerism

Back on topic:

I made a mistake in the gauges above, here are the CORRECT ones:

.032 .045 .065 .085 .100 .125

Sorry for any confusion!

(...and nice catch Jim P...you know who you are, Apple lefty lurker boy! )

Ha.. Thanks Gard. Nope, I just saw this and said, they went lighter on the strings? The gauges were perfect for the Roscoe basses. I'll have my order for the Century Signature for you very very soon.
