More Columns here.

In this week's That Thing You Missed, a boy melts down over his hero's retirement, Troy Polamalu may have a new career and the Bills dig out a legend.

Champ Bailing

 

Champ Bailey Retirement News by Joe Kolega on YouTube

This poor kid is more depressed about Champ Bailey’s retirement than Champ Bailey.

Just think how desolate he’s going to be when he gets a little older and realizes his parents didn’t know how to use their phone camera properly.

What’s so tough about his people?

Snow Job

As most of you know, parts of the Buffalo area are under over six feet of snow.

And while digging out from under the massive wall of powder is nearly impossible for most folks – not everyone has it so tough.

While Bills ownership is offering fans free tickets and ten bucks an hour to help shovel at Ralph Wilson Stadium – Bills legend Jim Kelly actually has current players like Mario Wiliams and major construction equipment like Bobcats to dig him out.

Being a legend must be awesome.

Run, Catch, Tackle Like A Girl

Unbelievable Girl Football Player Highlights!!! Sam Gordon 2014 by Sam Gordon on YouTube

Can’t. Stop. Watching.

After taking a year off, 11-year old Sam (that’s short for Samantha) Gordon is back on the football field. She is the only girl in her tackle football league and in 2012, she was the first female football player to appear on a Wheaties Box.

Still not impressed? Check out her highlight reel as she dominates on both offense and defense. The only thing worrying me about her playing is the long ponytail, but I guess it will be okay since Troy Polamalu has been getting away with it for years. 

Move Over All Roker

Speaking of Troy Polamalu, when his career as a strong safety with the Steelers is over, he may have a future as a weatherman.
