The LEAGUE plays here!
It's time. All the practice and drills and scrimmages and films have all led to this.
From 32 teams in the hunt back at Canton in August, to two in Jacksonville tomorrow.
Will the New England Patriots cement a dynasty like the Steelers in the 70s, the 49ers in the 80s or the Cowboys in the 90s? Or will the Philadelphia Eagles bring a championship home to a city long wanting?
The Patriots have a 7 point edge, but I'm going to take the Eagles (and the points). I'm a long-time NFC (and NFL before that) fan. Besides -- they beat up on the Falcons two weeks ago, they deserve it.
Enjoy the game everyone; enjoy the commercials, and remember that if you miss 'em, the commercials will be rebroadcast on an NFL Network special tomorrow night, and again both Monday and Tuesday.
I'm almost ready - I'm making homemade pizzas and homemade hot wings. I can justify it - I'll be back on my diet Monday.
Wrong network, but the question always applies: "Are you ready for some football?"

Posted by: Tuning Spork at February 6, 2005 12:34 PMNope, no stone (though I do want to get one one of these days.
I actually cook mine in a cast iron skillet. I spray the skillet with PAM, then place the Boboli (I haven't braved a homemade crust yet) and build the pizza from there.
