Amazing NFC Championship game today. An impressive comeback by the Seattle Seahawks to return to the Superbowl. They had to stage a big comeback to win in overtime over arguably the best quarterback in the game, Aaron Rodgers. Performing in the big moments is what it is all about. The question is, who will meet them there?
Today's quote is from Washington Irving:
"It is interesting to notice how some minds seem almost to create themselves, springing up under every disadvantage, and working their solitary but irresistible way through a thousand obstacles."
