any excuse to scream at my television.
I really, really love playoff season in the NFL.
As in REALLY.
As in standing-for-the-whole-fourth-quarter, yelling-things-at-Peyton-Manning-I-would-not-say-in-front-of-my-Mom, delirious-about-Tom-Brady, weeping-as-a-Seattle-fan in love with playoffs.
The Seahawks lost. Sigh.
The Pats won. WOOHOO!
The Chargers are currently leading, but it’s still anyone’s game. YIKES. Indy is very much still in it. UPDATE: CHARGERS WIN! MANNING DOES NOT!
And I’m torn. I want the Cowboys out, but do I want Eli Manning to win? Neither!
I get so excited that my stomach twists into knots.
But I love it.
With my luck, I’ll end up with a guy who couldn’t care less about any of this stuff. Perhaps that’s good, though.
We only need one of us scaring the crap out of the neighbourhood once a year.

I am the pro football fan in my relationship. The boy claims only to really care about college football. This does not keep him from being unable to carry on a conversation when there is a TV within eyesight that is showing an NFL game.

Hmmm. Well, it’s Eli over the Cowboys. But that’s ok. They’ll rout him next time ’round.

Hi! I’ve read your blog a couple times and today is my favorite - mainly because of the football. I felt like I was readying my own thoughts - especially when it came to Tom Brady! (:
Just wanted to say hello and I enjoy reading you!

Go Big Blue!
What’s with the Eli hatred?

You mean lack of Manning love? That’s a story too long for this blog…

I’m sorry your boys lost, but I’m not sorry my boys beat them.
I’m also estatic that Peyton lost. I can deal with Eli, but only if he loses next week.

It’s gonna be a Pats/Packers Superbowl for sure, and that’s going to be hugely epic. Favre vs. Brady? I can’t wait! 19-0!
