BCP: What is the toughest decision you had to make in the last few months?

BCP: Which is your favorite college and pro football team and why?
ROMELLO: I like the University of Miami and the Pittsburgh Steelers. I love the way both of their defenses bring a big punch to a game, always making a statement.
