ESPN has been creaming their jeans over the start of the NBA this morning. I don't know why I even bothered turning on Sportscenter. One segment NFL the rest was hoops......

If the Bears didn't get Hanied the last four games, this could have been an epic game. Now it's virtually meaningless.

Yeah, a big chunk of my family is going to the game. Bears offense is too hurt to keep up with the packers if the offense plays better than they did last week. I'll still watch but yeah, bears aren't likely to win.

We still get Faith, on Christmas. Got a belly full of bubbly and an apple pie in the oven. Need a big game from Rodgers and I will win 2 of my 3 champ FFL games. The other is up to Breesus tomorrow. Not bad, 3 teams outa 14 into the last game.

A night game makes more sense to me considering the day. Everybody has pretty much wrapped up the days festivities so the men won't be biatched at when kicking back to watch the game.

I know this is an NFC game, but here's the important part of the AFC playoff picture.

I seriously sat here at least an hour after the first games were all done trying to figure out all of that. Just couldn't figure out the AFC West part of it. But here's what I'm reading:

1. Baltimore is not going to rest against Cincy. So if real Baltimore shows up and not Jags game Baltimore, it's a Cincy loss.
2. Oakland, barring some serious hijinx of "three part harmony Rivers.gif" proportions, will win.
3. Orton *is* gonna troll the fark outta Tebow.
4. Jets-Miami.....this is where I get stuck. I really don't know how to call this. But I'm leaning towards loss, which would lead to Cincy getting in.
4a. If the Jets do win, I'm not sure the Texans are gonna rest, as Yates needs the reps. Which would lead to us being stuck with Year 3 of Rex Ryan Running His Mouth in January.

I'm actually rooting for The Red Headed Rookie, personally. And not just because of the benefits of a Ravens loss.

Now that the Eagles are cooked, the playoffs should be interesting but since some the spots aren't locked yet, I'll save my prediction of who will play in Indy

Yes

Ugh, all season I was looking forward to this game as having some really cool significance. You knew the Packers would be at the top of their game, and for the first 10 weeks it looked like the Bears were playing for something too.

OH well, merry Christmas to all you farkers, even the packer fans.
