I'll watch a couple but notably the bills/pats. I'm a finger lakes guy, so "Go Josh & The Bills!". Woke up to it being zero degrees outside this morning, it'll be similar to that at game time. Last I heard the game not selling out probably highly due to those temps. Walking back to my car at 11:30 pm when it's zero degrees isn't to appealing to me these days. Maybe if I was half the age I am, -Nawww

All 4. But especially looking forward to Cowboys/49ers.  :cooldude:

Definitely.....obviously Bills/Pats, but the other matchups are great, too!

None, unless by accident. 

Still on the boycott kick?
My question would be, how do you watch a game by accident ?  :???:

Be at a restaurant or other public venue where sportsball is being displayed.

Visiting a friend who's viewing sportsball.

Those are usually the ways I view sportsball when I do. I would say I'm boycotting it because of their extreme leftists posturing, but I never really was into it, so can't really boycott something you never really partook in to begin with.

I've never been a big football fan, but I do follow my Alma mater (University of Kansas (KU)) in men's basketball. And we beat WVU today by at least 20 points - after leading into half time by only 2. I even had season tickets for my next to last year....

None.....BUT will watch UFC Fight Night on ESPND at 7pm Eastern tonight.....

2 takeaways from the Bengals/Raiders. Drew Brees is a crappy game announcer. And the officials in this game suck bad.

A good 3rd period may be in store for the Leafs vs. Blues on the NHL channel, if you get bored with football.  It's a close one right now. :coolsmiley:

Leafs/ Blues!!  :cooldude:

You asked!  ;)
Like I said, back and forth through the second and third; Leafs win it with about 3:30 left, final was 6-5 Toronto.

Now switched to Colorado-Arizona on the radio (we are blacked out here in W. Colorado...bastard Kroenke family owners) no TV contract with
DISH for the past 3 years. :tickedoff:

agree, but still liking the Bengals finally winning a playoff game.  Now watching the Patsies getting keester whipped up on by the Bills.  Bills Bengals wanted to win and good thing happened.   :cooldude:

Cowboys should whip up on the 49ers unless they decide to NOT show up to play yet again as has been the case off and on lately for sure.

Not really care too much this week as long as America's team the Pack  get into the big dance...   ;)  However,  after a week bye,  they usually come out stinking up Lambeau....  Someone said the stadium will not be filled with the Bills game, that would never happen at Lambeau ever.

     i have NO favor 49ers/boyz BUT would NOT make me unhappy with a boyz loss then the 49ers lose the next weekend or verse vicea. RIDE SAFE.

I'm a Finger Lakes guy too. So I should be a Bills fan. Used to be, still am I guess.
But, I refuse to watch since the Kapernick thing and now especially with who the NFL is donating to.

Somewhere, Marv Levi is smiling for his Buffalo Bills. :smitten:

Seven touchdowns on seven consecutive drives?  
That, sir, is football dominance defined: "No way, no how, are they gonna beat us today", must have been the mantra in the Bills' locker room. I do believe that the members of the offensive line deserve most of the credit. :uglystupid2:

AND...your opinion is substantiated directly. >:(

Have not watched a game since the *&^$# started *&^$, and have no plans too.
If you're gonna be stupid, ya gota be tough

Evidently the older triplet boy, Serk Jr. has been showing an interest in sportsball, and my mom has shown an interest in teaching him the intricacies of sportsball, so I've been informed that he'll be getting picked up this afternoon to watch the Cowboys sportsball session with my mom... So I guess that's my connection to it this weekend....

As always, I hope the Cowboys win. Not because I care, but because it makes my mom happy when they do, and I care a lot more about that then any sportsballing.

Brady, the incomparable, the GOAT is so much fun to watch.

I'm not a Bucs fan particularly (though they play good football), but I am a Tom Brady fan (Michigan, before new England).

They've knocked him down three times, and he still makes it look so easy.  Like the Energizer Bunny.

Maybe he can play till he's 50.   ;D :cooldude:

Raider's George Blanda, the oldest NFL player ever, quit at 48. (but could pass for 68  :2funny:)

I concur with you sir! Saturday night Josh Allen was the man amongst boys, completing 21 of 25 passes for 308 yards, 5 TD's, and ran six times for 66 yards & didn't commit a turnover. That level of performance will be hard to maintain, but I'm hoping of course. If nothing else, I have another weekend of entertainment to look forward to.

always like to see a Packers/Cowboys matchup but this time a NO GO..... :tickedoff:

I maybe wrong, but looks like the Chiefs are going to win since the Steelers offense is non existent and the Steelers defense is pathetically too slow cannot catch any of the Chiefs.

On the plus side, she's said repeatedly she wants to stay around 'till her Boyz win one more Superbowl.... so I guess in a weird way I should be happy they don't win....

At this rate, she's dang near immortal!

First of all it's, "How bout them Cowboys"  :) The 49ers deserved to win the game. The dominated the Cowboys for most of the game. In all aspects. You can't go out and make so many stupid penalties and expect to win.

IMO not that the 49ers deserved to win playing much better than the Cowboys. It was more so the Cowboys shooting themselves in the foot loosing for having so many stupid penalties on them.

Ya gotta stand by your convictions. And they're really worried about us, not.

I don't think most folks realize what the NFL is doing with their money, or they don't care. I do.

So what is the NFL doing with their money?  Not like 3 to 6 hours a weekend watching football will make a huge difference in their TV ratings.  Not like a few not watching will make a dent in their ratings either.  It is not like I will ever go to an NFL football game in REAL life ever spending 100 bucks or more per ticket supporting them that way or buy any NFL logoed apparel vs. just watching a few hours of football every weekend.

As I've said before, they are WOKE. They're donating huge to liberal organizations. Look it up. They make a huge amount of bucks from TV ratings.
Will it make any difference if a couple of us take a stand and not watch them, no. But, there comes a time when I have to say enough is enough. And if enough stop watching them, they'll take notice.

Agree,  will take an enormous amount of NON-watchers to make a difference.  Unfortunately, it will never happen.  The NFL dealing with Kapernick ticked me off but still wanna watch a few football games on the weekends, although I record them mostly doing other stuff on the weekends.  I can record a 3 hour NFL game on my Dish DVR receiver and watch entire game in about 1 hour vs. wasting 3 hours.
