SF Writers Behaving Like Bookies
In a recent online conversation, fellow Canadian author Doug Smith and I found we disagreed with each other over who was going to win today's NFC Championship game. I say the Seahawks, and Doug says the Panthers. Being sensible fans, we made a bet. I gave Doug a spread of 3.5 points (which means that Seattle has to win by more than a field goal for me to win this bet), and the winner gets to kill the loser in an upcoming story, while the loser has to give the winner a good walk-on in another story.
Cheaper than cash, and more fun to boot. To say nothing of giving you more egotistical rantings of log-rolling writers.

We must cheer for Seattle. Pittsburgh has won before, Seattle has never been to The Show. Go 'hawks.
Seattle won, 34-14. And yeah, Randy, besides the fact that the Seahawks are my favourite team (with the Chargers a close 2nd), that they've never even been, much less won, means they would have automatically made the cut for me.
