In an attempt to please all of our demographics, we have the picture of Tom Brady (for AZ Gopher and any other ladies who would like to join the RandBall party), a second consecutive story about the Packers (for P3), and a story about warming the pants, which pretty much covers everyone else. From Packersnews.com (thanks to colleague Dean Spiros for the tip):

The temperature is expected to be in the mid-20s for Saturday’s NFC divisional playoff game at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, but that’s apparently too cold for Seattle Seahawks kicker Josh Brown. He plans to wear warmup pants with battery-powered heaters for his calves, thighs and hamstrings. Brown told Seattle radio station KIRO that his legs will be 75 degrees, even if it is in the 20s outside. He also said kickers spend most of the game on the sideline, so they have to work harder to stay loose in the cold by walking around, practicing kicks or using heaters. It’ll be mostly cloudy with a 20 percent chance of snow showers on Saturday, according to the National Weather Service office in Ashwaubenon. After a daytime high near 28 degrees, it’s expected to drop to about 17 overnight.

Yep, battery-powered pants. The Seahawks are for sure going to lose now, right?
