Just gimme a couple NFL games, and no-one gets hurt

Bought a month’s pass to Viasat Sports, pretty much solely to watch the post-season of NFL football.

Watched a good-sized slice of Green Bay’s dismantling of the Seattle Seahawks yesterday, but called it a day at the halftime. The snowy conditions on Lambeau field made passing game tough, but it was the heroics of Ryan Grant that won the football game, not missteps of the Seattle air attack.

Right now Indianapolis faces San Diego, which is nice - I thought this would be the second game of the day and thus televised at night. Peyton Manning looks formidable in the first quarter, and only a fumble of the recently returned Marvin Harrison kept Colts from scoring twice.

The game being slow by nature (though moving fast, on account of the clock running with the passing game), and Viasat having a very limited set of jingles / commercials and even more limited access to any studio analysis, an alternate source of entertainment on the sofa is a necessity. Been reading to cover the inactive bits. Which has resulted in quite good progress through a couple of books.
