The Pack vs. the 'Boys

Yes, tonight is the NFC showdown between Green Bay and Dallas. And most of you cable subscribers have most likely, like me, found family and friends' houses with satellites to watch the game.

If you're still not sold on the need to locate the elusive TV set with the NFL network (I'll spare you the needle-in-a-haystack analogy), check out Don Banks' story on si.com, "Ten Reasons to Watch the Pack-Cowboys... if you can." Amidst the Ice Bowl memories and expected Romo vs. Favre comparisons, Banks talks about the two unsung coaches, describing Wade Phillips with, "He might look like a tire salesman who eats donuts two out of every three meals, but the guy is coaching circles around the Cowboys' opponents."

That's funny right there. Now I'm craving donuts.
