Hey,

rough it was, indeed. I had bet on NE-GB, knowing SF was really impressive. NE-SF was completely likely to happen.
Yet, Baltimore did a great game in the second half and the Pats could not resist their defence.
I can’t help but think Manning should have won this one last week against the Ravens. It is a bit of miracle they Raven be there, but still they earned it no questions about that.

I am always ok with the Pats making their way in the playoffs and winning during the divisional week end.

Although I’ve proven wrong in my forecats so far, I really see San Fransisco win this one. Their level of game is higher.

If you don’t mind, I have a RAF request please :

• could I cancel one NCM and let the Tactical bomber in Persia ?
• could I build the plane in Persia and an infantry in South Africa ?

If it’s ok, thanks.

IPCs are melting faster than the snow out there !
I guess I’ll have to get used to it.

Happy new year everyone.
