So, any regrets related to those Sunday plans? Those who chose anything other than the game seem to have made the wiser decision.

Had a great time at the range today with my BIL. 5-Stand match was cancelled, but we shot his 1897 shotgun anyway and it did well. The action was still a little stiff, but other than that we didn't really have any problems.

Then we sighted in his new EXPS3-2 and 3x magnifier on his M4 at 50 yards before we moved over to 100 yards. I also got my M4 out with just the 1x EXPS2-2. After about 20 rounds each at 100 yards we moved over to 200 yards. Neither of us had ever shot that far before. We both did fine and had more than half our rounds inside the 12" shoot-n-see target. It was really cool shooting at that distance for the first time. We'll get back out when it's warmer and dryer and I will also do it with iron sights now that I know I can see the target at that distance.

Still watched the game and thought it was a great game. Not close, but Seattle played a great game.

My regret about today was eating too much chili, chips, and queso. :ack:

I don't know, for me in order for a game to be great it has to be competitive. Unless you happen to be a Seattle fan, this has to be in the top 3 worst superbowls along with two other Denver losses (SF 55 - Den 10, and Wash 42 - Den 10).

So, HD sent a bunch of people home early due to lack of business, and I went home and picked up my honey and we went to the market and did the grocery shopping, got dog and bird food, and snacks for the big game, took a little nap, and have been sitting here wondering why I didn't just stay at work.

...or mow the yard or something. I can't think of any football game I've ever seen that was over on the first down. :roll:

That looks like some nice craftsmanship and a gift from the heart.
