My old girl Britt wins the Super Bowl coolness competition. Before the game, she wrote, “I am a nervous wreck today..excited, anxious, full of adrenaline..so many emotions..then I looked down at my mood ring and all was right…” They did it. They won three games no one picked them to win. They did it with a back-up quarterback who took the reins in...
