On Second Thought: Homer J. On Browns @ Steelers

Laundry doesn’t win games, but Landry does, sometimes.
It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.
The Steelers won their seventh straight game Sunday, having clinched the AFC North title a week earlier, and resting their All-pro QB, All-pro running back, All-pro receiver, All-pro Center, and the heart and soul of their defense. Nobody got seriously hurt, and the team heads into the playoffs healthier than they’ve been in months.
It was Fan Appreciation Day, and yet many fans didn’t seem to appreciate it.
The overtime win over the hapless Cleveland Browns was sort of like winning second place in the Ugly Girl Contest. You didn’t know whether to say thank you or blank you.
