Wilco - I'm the Man Who Loves You - Vail Snow Daze 2012

i found this video of wilco at the snow daze festival we went to back in december. check out the hats and scarves. you can't see the snow, but i guarantee you it was snowing the whole time. actually you can see the snow. awesome. yeah great show.

well it's over. the season is over for the houston texans. it wasn't much of a surprise. the new england patriots are a better team, better organization and that's why they won. twice against us this season. there's a problem with the texans. let me see if i can articulate it. gary kubiak is a good coach. matt schaub is a good quarterback. however, gary kubiak is not a great coach and cannot overcome sometimes mediocre quarterback play. matt schaub is not a great quarterback and cannot overcome sometimes mediocre coaching. we don't have a great quarterback to overcome our sometimes inept coach and the same goes for the coach. we're a very good team, but we won't be a great team with both kubiak and schaub. it just won't happen. we'll get this far each year and that's it.

i still have to say it's better than not making the playoffs and being like the browns or chiefs or something. we're close, but just don't have quite enough talent.

i'm looking forward to baseball season. it's going to be a rough year for both the astros and the rockies. they might end up the two worst teams in baseball. but baseball is fun either way. you want to win, but going to a game is still so much fun. i want to go to about ten games this year. see the astros, giants, cubs, maybe the new look dodgers. i don't have a world series pick yet, i'll save that for spring training.

anyway football is over in houston and denver. seems like a new england- 49er super bowl is coming our way. but who knows. either way, i can't wait to see color me badd as the half time show at the super bowl.

wait...i'm being told that is not correct and color me badd should never be mentioned again. harsh, but fair.

here we are people. even before the game this afternoon, we've already received our first break. denver lost yesterday. what does that mean? well i'll tell you what that means. if, if, if somehow, someway houston can beat new england later today, the afc championship game will be in houston. that is huge. we already beat baltimore. in fact, we tore them up. well so did denver, so i guess that's not worth a lot in the playoffs, which should make should make us feel better about today. things could be turning houston's way.

however, i am the rain. the game is the parade and i'm raining all over it. prediction:

new england 42 houston 20

i don't have any other predictions. my preseason nfc pick green bay is now gone. they lost last night to san francisco pretty convincingly. i was able to watch it at home. what? that's right. i was talking with my dad and he mentioned that i should be able to buy a normal, everyday antenna and hook it into the converter box and pick up channels over the air. well, guess what? he was right!! i hooked it up upstairs and we have television. so i'll be able to watch the texans game at home today instead out at some bar with everyone cheering against houston. also i'm becoming a statistic and have come down with a sore throat. when you see a map of the US and all the states are red with sick people, i'm now one of them.

(as i'm watching cbs this morning)....this is awesome. i haven't seen a 'moment of nature' on cbs's this morning in years. and this morning they're in montana. and there's a moose. it looks just like rocky mountain national forest. it's not, but man it's similar. i love those moments of nature.

also we saw the hobbit yesterday. i've never read the book or any of tolkien's books. i found them pretty boring. but i enjoy the movies. and this one was good too. we saw it 3d in the IMAX. the IMAX was cool, but i'm always let down by 3d. i think it's a ripoff. but demitria loved it and that's what counts. that's her star wars.

go texans.
