I know, I know, for a lot of you the only thing less exciting than checking yourself for breast cancer is watching a football game on the television. However, 'tis the season and since my boyfriend is as passionate about his football as I am about my knitting, I've found myself watching football. A LOT OF FOOTBALL.

Not just his team (the Mighty New York Football Giants) but all the teams. All NFL games. We watch football all day long on Sundays, and then again on Monday nights. I have found a reason, however, to enjoy football and that reason is ...

Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin.

Not only is Tomlin the youngest head coach to lead his team to a Super Bowl victory, he's also one sexy mother-effer. He's one of the youngest head coaches in professional sports, and only the 10th African-American head coach in NFL history. Stats schmats, I want this man.

People make a big deal about the players in the NFL, but I'd put this guy head to head with any player. I could watch him in his little headset looking all serious on the sidelines for hours on end. I wish my boyfriend were more into the Steelers. Nothing is sexier than a man who is good at what he does. I'd like to thank Mike Tomlin for kicking ass and looking good doing it.

I even went so far as to order this I (heart) Mike Tomlin tote from Cafe Press because I do, in fact (heart) Mike Tomlin.

So which sports fellow makes you want to leave your man? Let's talk.
