I look at it like this:  The last time a team from Cincinatti won anything of significance, they needed the direction of a Tampa native.  



So.  How can a team from Cincinatti now beat a bunch of kids from Tampa?

being a parent pbr couldnt even imagine how scary this would be...breaking news how the f are they going to get this thing down? need some special ops here for this...

     Fort Collins, Colo. (AP) -- A 6-year-old boy climbed into a
homemade balloon aircraft and floated away Thursday, forcing
officials to scramble to figure out how to rescue the boy.
     Live footage from a local TV helicopter showed the balloon
gliding quickly through the air.
     Larimer County sheriff's spokeswoman Eloise Campanella says
the device, which is shaped like a flying saucer, has the
potential to rise to 10,000 feet. Sheriff's officials last saw
the device floating south of Milliken, which is about 40 miles
north of Denver.
     Campanella says the 6-year-old climbed into the access door
and was in the airborne device.
     FAA spokesman Mike Fergus says the agency has been notified
and it was unclear whether traffic controllers had picked it up
on radar.

A couple of professional balloon pilots should be able to get next to it, tie it up, and land. Hopefully.

Looks like the Colorado National Guard is going to use a helicopter.

TGP's been keeping an eye on that "balloon story".  It has landed but no kid inside.  He's still MIA.

It appears, that I may be calling a game Saturday from the warmest part of the region -- the Canadian border.  Forecast at St. Lawrence Saturday is for a high of 48F and partly cloudy.  NYC forecast for Saturday:  47F.   ???
