Are you still alive? I somehow thought you had died and were in the arms of Satan

Yes, I'm still alive and today I'm all psyched about the Colin Powell endorsement on MTP this morning. I'm very pleased to see that so many Republicans are seeing the light this year.

But given that Sunday is America's day of secular football idolatry, let's take a quick look at the pigskin endorsements in two key swing states.

In FL, Miami Dolphins owner Wayne Huizenga has announced his plans to pack up his toys and go home if Obama wins the election, saying that he'll sell the team because of Obama's tax policies. After 15 years of plodding mediocrity under Huizenga (no Super Bowl wins, AFC Championships, or even AFC Championship Game appearances, compared to 2 Super Bowl wins, 5 AFC Championships, and 7 AFC Championship Game appearances in the 27 years prior to Huizenga), Dolphin fans are probably ready to thank Obama for ridding them of their pathetic owner. And baseball fans will remember Huizenga as the guy who dismantled two separate Florida Marlin World Series championship teams to pad his wallet. Bottom line? If an Obama presidency can get Wayne Huizenga out of the sports biz, that's change Miami sports fans can believe in.

Meanwhile, here in PA, Steelers owner Dan Rooney -- possibly the most beloved guy in the city of Pittsburgh -- is campaigning for Obama in PA and OH with Ted Strickland and Steelworkers' President Leo Gerard.

Life is good.
