Pats or Giants: What do the neighbors think?
Today's The Day: Super Bowl Sunday. From executives in Sacramento to sportsfans in Rhode Island, everybody's got something to say about todays matchup between the powerhouse New England Patriots and the indefatigueable New York Giants....
Matt Jerzyk at Rhode Island’s Future believes the Pats will win: Patriots-34 Giants-20. The Patriots will have a perfect season and can correctly claim to the be greatest team of all time.
But Sacramento Executive’s Pierre Cutler thinks the oddsmakers in Las Vegas are giving too much in making the Giants 12-point underdogs: Most people didn't see the Giants slipping past the Cowboys and the Packers. And most people don't see them beating the Patriots either. But one thing I've learned in Las Vegas, especially on the Roulette tables - don't bet against trends. My gut tells me to stick with the hot hand. Also, twelve points is just too many to turn down.

Welcome to San Diego Mom. We learn about local resources from friends and family, playgroup meetings, in grocery store lines, even in doctor's office waiting rooms and we share them with each other every day. San Diego Mom is a way we can share new ideas, our best kept local secrets and provide honest feedback on things we've tried.
The majority of posts are about resources close to or near Carmel Valley. But, I provide many links to sites with city-wide coverage so we can keep tabs of online resources that can help us plan for activities, events, etc. away from home.
This site is ideal for families in the North County area looking for new ideas for family fun. It is also ideal for families considering a move to San Diego or to Southern California who are interested in getting a feel for the types of communities in North County and the resources available for families.
