I give up. I am now watching the game.

[southlandshari]

But I am a totally blank slate. Who should I be cheering for and why?

:shrug:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

1. AFC championship?

Cheer for either. I don't care. :D But the Broncs have only just begun to actually PLAY today... :eyes:

[southlandshari]

3. Who is the underdog?

I thought the Steelers were a total fluke in making it this far (ducking for cover from flying objects hurled by many of my northeastern pals).

I do like Jerome Bettis. But still can't decide who to cheer for!

:)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

5. Rank-wise I believe the Steelers are a lower seed.

But they've really been kicking some Bronco ass this game....

Who knows.

:D

[southlandshari]

8. I'm cheering for Pittsburgh

Hell, it's good enough reason for me that they are one of the ONLY teams still in the same location and with the same team name they had when I was a kid!

:D

[hfojvt]

18. I have never really liked either team

but the Broncos were the Orange Crush and so was my home school the year we won the ESD championship in 1979.

Also, I was once an Oiler fan and Pittsburgh was their chief rival.

Having grown up with Bud Grant and Tom Landry, psychotic screaming coaches like Wannstadt seem to me to lack class. Their management strategy is violence. I am hoping for a miracle - watch Ditka.

[southlandshari]

26. I do agree with you on the old school coaches

Good to see you today!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

2. Hey shari!

Nice to see you, gf! I'm watching too, though I'm reserving my cheering for the Seahawks-Panthers game. You don't have to guess who I'll be cheering for!

[southlandshari]

6. I will definitely cheer for Seattle!

Mostly for you, of course, but also because the first NFL game I've watched from start to finish in a long time was the Panthers-Bears game last weekend - with a bunch of Bears fans!

x(


:hug: for you, girlfriend!

[SeattleGirl]

11. Thanks shari!

Yeesh, watching da Bears with their fans? That would be like me watching an Oregon Ducks - Washington Huskies game with a bunch of Huskie's fans! x(

Hugs back to you! :hug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

12. This is something you'll *never* see guys do

"I'm pulling for Detroit because you are, Ralph."

:scared:

[southlandshari]

14. Why not?

I have no dog in that hunt. Would it be better to cheer for the team with the least ugly uniform than to cheer in solidarity with a friend?

:shrug:


(shush, you, I'm trying to get me some Seattle Girl lovin', and you are distracting her!)

:P

[Oeditpus Rex]

16. Whaya think *I'm* tryin' to do?

And, yes. If you're a guy.

But you don't admit to either. If your home boy says something like "I didn't know you were a Detroit fan," you must say something like "Oh, yeah. Detroit kicks ass."

Because if you say "I like their uniforms" or "I'm not — but you are," you're obviously gay.

[SeattleGirl]

19. I got enough lovin's for the both of you!

:loveya: :spank: :loveya: :spank:

[hfojvt]

40. and just what is wrong with THAT?

At this point, most people do not have a team of their own in the play-offs. But if a bunch of guys get together and most of them are Seahawks fans, almost every guy is gonna root for the Seahawks too and many of them are gonna be honest about why - when in Rome, root for the Rome team.

If a man says something or avoids saying something because he is afraid of being called gay, then he's obviously gay.

But that's just me, I always hang out with guys who do not mind that I am gay, even if I'm not.

[Oeditpus Rex]

42. There are times I'm sure sarcasm is so obvious

no smilies are necessary.

I should re-think this.

:eyes:

[Oeditpus Rex]

4. Cheer for the approaching baseball season

[SeattleGirl]

7. Spring training's not that far away!

But I have to say, I've really enjoyed the Seahawks' season this year. One more win and they're in!

[Oeditpus Rex]

9. Pitchers and catchers report in 30 days

In the world of sport, that's all that matters.

[southlandshari]

10. First, hoops!

Not NBA, NCAA. Auburn is hosting Kentucky in a couple of days - yes, I know what the outcome almost certainly will be, but I love SEC hoops anyway!


:woohoo:

[Oeditpus Rex]

13. Does college hoop still have rules?

I stopped watching the NBA when they outlawed defense, passing and smart shot selection and made dribbling optional, but if the NCAA still does these I might be induced to watch.

[no name no slogan]

15. Football sucks. Don't cheer for anyone

Give me some old-fashioned bareknuckle boxing any day.

[southlandshari]

21. Darlin' - our friendship is now hanging on by one tenuous thread....

First that sneak attack with "the" joke, and now dissing football?

:cry:


You must be on powerful allergy medication or something today. You have never been so cruel before!!























:rofl:

[Call Me Wesley]

17. Game? What game?

There's no games here, but you can always cheer for me! :evilgrin:

[SeattleGirl]

20. Hey Wesley!!!

'course I'll cheer for you --- in my own special way, of course! :spank: :spank: :spank: :evilgrin:

[Call Me Wesley]

22. Uh-oh ...

:evilgrin: Thank you! Nothing beats yer 'special way', if ya know what I mean. ;)

[SeattleGirl]

24. Wow, RED spankies!

With a "woohoo" even! I like!!!!! :evilgrin:

[Call Me Wesley]

27. Heh heh!

Feel free to use it. My newest one is the popcorn smilie with a 'twist':

[SeattleGirl]

32. Cool!

How can I get it? BTW, Crazy Guggenheim will like the new popcorn smiley!

[Call Me Wesley]

33. Just copy the 'Properties'

between the img-tags.

And, BTW, Crazy Guggenheim can't have it. He hates me.

[SeattleGirl]

36. How could anyone hate you, Wesley?

:shrug:

[Call Me Wesley]

38. He does.

He likes to call me names and thinks I'm a freeper. I'm not even American, so what gives? And he doesn't like the fact that they are trying to cross-breed Yaks with Swiss cows. He's sensitive that way. Besides, he likes Liebermann.

[southlandshari]

25. I'll cheer for you any day, darlin'!

:hide:

[Call Me Wesley]

29. W00t!

Is this you? Did you really have these fluffy American things wriggling in your hands? Wow. I'm culturally challenged, right now. :evilgrin:


:hug:

[southlandshari]

30. LOL! Surely you jest!

I would never have had that haircut! NEVER!

:P
























Well, I sure as hell wouldn't admit it if I had, anyway.

;)

[Call Me Wesley]

31. Hmmm, but ... but ...

It's a Southern haircut! :shrug: :rofl:

[southlandshari]

35. Since you admire that one so much...

I'm about to send you another one and give you express permission to photoshoppe as you see fit. I offered it to DS1 some time ago, but he has yet to make it his own, so I'm counting on you to do something spectacular with it!

:D

[Call Me Wesley]

37. I feel flabbergasted!

Of course I'll do my best. DS1 will, I am afraid, bring his PS copy back to the story asking for a refund. :eyes:

[matcom]

34. i LOVE 80's chicks!

they were SOOOOOOOO EASY!! :bounce:

























:wow:

:P

[southlandshari]

44. Hey! The girl in that pic wasn't easy!

She was just, er, very, very FRIENDLY.

:evilgrin:

[gizmo1979]

23. I usually change my alliance

during the game to whoever is behind,because I just want to see a good game.

[southlandshari]

28. Is that during any game, or just one in which the teams are the same

to you?

It is rare for me to watch a game in which I don't have some reason to cheer for one team or the other, if only out of spirit with a friend who does care who wins.

I know what you mean, though. A nail-biter is more fun to watch than a blow-out any day of the week, even when I do care who wins!

:hi:

[gizmo1979]

45. My team sucked this year

I usually do like one team more but these playoffs seemed to have teams that I neither abhored or loved so I just wanted to see some good hardnosed football.

[GOPisEvil]

39. Are you watching the 2nd game, too?

Between game :hi:

[southlandshari]

43. The other game is on tonight?

Sigh.

I wasn't planning on it but....

:hi:

[Rising Phoenix]

41. route for good football...

thats what Sniffa says for me to do when the pats aren't playing...

unless you have money riding on it...then you know what you need to do...

[KamaAina]

46. Each team has precisely one Auburn Tiger

oddly, both play offensive guard: Kendall Simmons for the Steelers and Chris Gray for the Seahawks. (Yes, I actually checked. Ve-e-e-r-r-r-y slow here today.)

Perhaps you could root against whichever one has more 'Bama players?

Or root for the Blue city -- oh wait, they're both Blue! :bounce:

[texas1928]

47. What Game is on tonight?

:shrug:
