Are You Watching the Packers Game Tonight?


I am. This one is for the North Division Championship of the NFC.  I'm normally not much of a football fan, but the Green Bay Packers have been very exciting this season.

Are you watching the game at home? Having a football party? Going to one? I'll watch it at home. I have a TV tuner card in my computer and can watch as I surf online.

Go Pack! Take down the Falcons!

I hope to be able to watch it.. what time is it??? We sometimes get football games broadcast here, but it's up to the TV station which one is played.. we get one a week.. I've seen 1 Packers game so far this season.

I'll give it a shot, hopefully I can stay away that long

You betcha. Had to throw that wisconsinism in there. I'll be at my computer, with my back to the tv, straining my neck for all the good plays.

Football games take way too long. How can you just sit there and watch them? Too many pauses, adjusting of privates, time outs, replays, penalties for this or that... just RUN, will ya? Maybe that is what the beer is for?

definitely, gotta love the playbacks, when the tackles are shown in slow motion, they always look like they're hugging, it's great fun!

I'll have to stick to listening to it on the drive back from Minneapolis.

I already have my Packer gear on ready for this evening.
Got the brats in the fridge and I believe we are all set.

Why Not, the game is at 7:00 pm CST, carried by Fox TV.

MinnesotaChick said...

We'll be watching it.

I am not a big fan of either team, but its a good matchup so yeah, I am tuning in. Don't have to stay up so late here with the time zone thing!

kk, the reason there is so much time between plays is so that I can explain to those around me exactly what happened on the previous play in painful detail (blocking schemes, the stunts, the routes, the coverages, etc). Yeah, it's a joy to watch games with me!

Why Not? said...

Ok.. so no I wont be watching the game.. that's 2a.m. for me..

HB we'd get along fine. I'm stone deaf and would just nod at ya and grin. pass the chips please?

kkdither said...

You can explain the stars to me, hale. Football? I'll toss the chips at ya instead of having you pass them to me! :)

While everyone is crabbing and playing sideline coach, my head is screaming, just get on with it!

2nd half, Packers leading.

I can't take all the damn commercials. They wedge one in every time someone farts. I turn down the volume, surf online, and by the time I get back to the game, they start another round of commercials.

OKIE said...

What a game!

MinnesotaChick said...

WOW!!!

OrbsCorbs said...

48 - 21. Holy cow! Especially after that start. The Falcon fans sure got quiet quick.

What a slaughter! More mass bird deaths confirmed....

The hell with driving home. I decided to stay at a hotel across from the stadium on the U of M campus. Jr. and I went to the Buffalo Wild Wings and watched the game. Lots of Packer fans. Mostly students from Wisconsin. There was one guy wearing a Vikings hat. He didn't look to happy. Maybe he was just there for the atmosphere of what it's like to have a team in the playoffs.

kkdither said...

The points were coming so fast and easy from both sides, it made me nervous. I was sure they were going to blow it in the 4th, like has happened too many times. It was hard to let myself get too excited.

Looked to me like the only fans left in the stadium at the end of the game were Packer fans.

Drew, you all fooled me once with the bird deaths. My story is that I was working and only did a quick scan of the post in between classes... yea, that is what happened! ;>

Logjam, did the Viking hat have horns? You don't want to mess with anything that has horns.

lizardmom said...

AMAZING GAME!!!!!!!!!

hale-bopp said...

I just wanted a good game...not really a fan of either team. I didn't even bother with the end of that blowout.

No KK. I didn't see any horny Vikings. And if I did, I'd be keeping my distance.
