We started the day by e-cycling. As you probably know, throwing away computers and their peripherals isn't a good idea since they contain contaminants. One of the local recycling companies said they would take any computer and peripheral items today. We drove down there to drop off some items and I was pleasantly surprised to see how well organized it was. They had a drive through lane set up that you pulled into. You then pulled into their building and they had a lot of people in there that ran right up to your car and picked up your stuff. We were in out in five minutes.
Then we headed to our youth rally at our congregation (Central church of Christ). I was on audio/visual duty. This the first time I've ever been able to participate (the last two years the boys had a track meet at Tilghman on the same day). Ben Selbe (who used to be a member of our congregation til his family moved to Hopkinsville) led the singing. He did a great job especially considering he had his wisdom teeth pulled on Tuesday. Josh Herndon (who preaches at Union Hill) did three lessons. He did a fabulous job. The lessons were very good for the kids and had a lot of good points for us adults too. It's very encouraging to see so many young Christians gathered together sing praises to God and making service to God their top priority today.
Finally, there was the Panthers Cardinals game. I had to hear (again) all week about how weak they are and how they didn't have a chance. I didn't see anybody who gave them a chance. All of the guys on the pre-game show smugly predicted an easy Carolina win. I was afraid they'd be right when Carolina drove right down the field with the opening kickoff and scored a touchdown. After that, it was all Cardinals. After a trade of punts, they drove down and scored a touchdown to match. Delhomme fumbled and the Cardinals took advantage and scored again. The Panthers drove down and appeared that they would tie the game. The Cardinals intercepted and drove down and scored a field goal. They drove to another field goal, intercepted a pass and drove for another touchdown. It was 27-7 at the half!!! They tacked on another couple of field goals in the second half. The Panthers scored a meaningless touchdown at the end to make the score 33-13.
I don't think I'll hear anymore about "worst team in the playoffs" or "doesn't belong on the playoffs"
