The Steelers win and the Chiefs lose, making for a great weekend of football. Light-Up Night in downtown Pittsburgh will have a festive feel to it.

One era is coming to an end, even though I still have some pumpkin spice things lying around. A new era began last Friday when I had the Pilgrim sub from GetGo.
