Who's rooting for whom?

The Bengals. Troy Walters and Michael Thomas were two of my favorites. And I only root for LA teams unless they are playing a team I hate even more.

Did you notice Michael Thomas playing upback on the Bengals' punts?  Fun fact - I saw him make a tackle from that position yesterday, which seems pretty difficult with all the guys in the way.  (Of course, I was watching the upback on every Bengals punt!)  

I met Thomas once at a Best Buy - very nice dude.  He took a picture with my son who was only 4 then but now is almost 14.  Thomas was already in the NFL at that time - that's how long he's stuck around! He's lasted longer than nearly all of the other very talented guys from those great Stanford teams.  

He wasn't picked up by the Bengals until mid-season.  We may have witnessed Thomas' last football game yesterday - if so, going out in a Super Bowl, even in defeat, isn't such a bad way to go.
