dome teams aint playing next weekend

[mduffy31]

1. Your Damn right Fish!!!

This is how football in January should be played.

[LiberalFighter]

2. Sure looks pretty

[Botany]

3. Now that is football

"the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field,"

[RL3AO]

4. Actually, it might be colder in Boston that day.

Depends how quickly the low can move out and the high can set it.

[kanrok]

5. Congrats Fish

This Bears' fan is rooting for the Pack the rest of the year. Nice.

[RL3AO]

6. Never thought I'd see the day.

Almost as bad as a Red Sox fan pulling for the Yankees.

[fishnfla]

7. I think I might of sent him the same message once or twice over the past seasons

I know I was pulling for the Bears a year ago this time

kanrok can brag up his side beating the super bowl champs twice this season, and ya know what?

he's right

[RL3AO]

9. Well, as a Vikings fan, I can with pleasure say...

FUCK THE PACKERS!

[fishnfla]

10. whatever floats your boat

the first time we beat you, the refs robbed y'all

[mduffy31]

12. Don't you know

The refs always job the vikings.

[Goblinmonger]

15. I think an NFC North Superbowl win

would be better than any other fuckin' division in the NFL.

[BOSSHOG]

16. Indeed

The Packers are a team parents wouldn't be afraid to let their team watch as they can be considered positive role models and awful damn fun to watch. The Pack-Giants game should be a lot of fun.

[kanrok]

13. You did pull for the Bears last year, Fish

You're a class act. Favre looks 15 years younger. Hope it's snowin' in GB on Sunday. A couple of friends of mine are making the trek. Good luck (although I don't think you'll need it). Not looking ahead, but it'll be a great SB this year.

[fishnfla]

8. Thanks

still got the broom from y'all

that hurts

[Goblinmonger]

14. as is this vikings fan n/t

[WilliamPitt]

11. Fuckin'. A.

:toast:

[bigwillq]

17. Not a good sign for Eli

He never plays well in the cold. But who knows, Giants weren't suppose to get this far but they did. Let's go Giants! :bounce:

[Elwood P Dowd]

18. He should do a Bobby Layne

and consume some Jack Black anti-freeze before the game. I doubt any DUers go back that far.

[bigwillq]

22. I don't remember that

Let me google.

[Elwood P Dowd]

23. How far do you go back?

I've only seen the Giants play once live, and that was in 1971 against the Redskins. Fran Tarkenton was the QB. Tucker Fredrickson was the RB. Injuries had pretty much ruined Tucker's career by then. Fran was later traded to Minnesota.

[bigwillq]

25. I was born in 1978

Don't really remember much of anything major until around 1987 or 1988

[Elwood P Dowd]

28. Bobby Layne use to get sauced before games.

He played back in the 1940s and 1950s. Former Redskin QB Billy Kilmer had a similar reputation, though he was nowhere near as notorious as Layne.

[bigwillq]

29. Yeah, I googled him

and on Wiki, it said he was an alcoholic.

[Goblinmonger]

32. Traded BACK to Minnesota

Sorry. Big Tarkenton fan.

[cboy4]

19. Are you really buying a forecast an entire week in

advance, if indeed that's what they're calling for?

The weather people can barely tell you what it's going to be like two days from now, let alone seven! lol

[trotsky]

20. When it comes to these long cold snaps in the upper midwest,

it's about as close to a certainty as one can get in the forecasting department. The jet stream dips down, a system in Alaska pushes more cold air into Canada, and a parked Low over eastern Canada funnels it all down. Very stable, very cold. 3rd week in January is very typically the coldest time of year in Minnesota, and I assume next door in Wisconsin.

[RL3AO]

21. They get it right 90% of the time...

but everyone dwells on the 10%.

[BOSSHOG]

24. I keep

weather.com's 10 day forecast on my computer and it is quite accurate, not perfect, but accurate enough for my planning purposes.

[fishnfla]

31. I was wrong, you are right: its gonna be colder

eom

[RL3AO]

26. BTW, bad weather helps the Giants

Last time I checked NYC isn't exactly a tropical paradise this time of year. As we saw between Chicago and Green Bay a few weeks ago and Baltimore and New England in November, bad weather neutralizes teams. The Packers are better. Bad weather helps the worse team.

[fishnfla]

27. Interesting, I've never heard that theory before

I think it effects each team equally. It hurts passing teams and special teams equally, but not a team that can run the ball effectively. I honestly dont know if the Packers are a better team than the Giants. We'll find out at the end of the game

Phillips is saying the Cowboys were the better team on Sunday, yet they lost. Not much sense ,that.

[Jimbo S]

30. The weather didn't neutralize Packers-Seahawks

Green Bay covered the spread, and then some.

Seattle couldn't run the ball, Green Bay did.

Whoever can run the Sunday obviously has a greater advantage.

[Poiuyt]

33. Now they're saying the high will be about 4-5 degrees

It will probably be around 2-3 at kickoff and probably below zero by the end.

Dress warmly!

[Dinger]

34. Awww Shucks, I Always did Like You : )

:)


Especially the "the way it should be" part.
