[Vision2020] More important issue: Pittsburgh beats Colts

If my Steelers lose, it won't be because they can't play in bad weather.  
Heinz Field is usually a mess by this time, and they're used to wind there 
too.  No, if they lose I'll come up with something else.

Do the Broncos have a snowplow driver on retainer for late-game field goal 
attempts?
