I’ll be watching, but I hate it being on Xmas Eve, and especially hate the time. Should have been a noon game. I’m scrambling as we speak to finish all the last minute stuff up so by Sunday I can hopefully relax.

We had a Xmas Eve game a couple of years ago and we lost and I was I remember being in a bad mood at my buds party. I won’t go there this year, as it’s not worth it. I can be angry on any other day, but won’t do it. I also made a commitment to myself that I will try not to yell/cuss at the TV on that day. But, if Micah doesn’t get another holding call that might go out the window! Lol

Merry Christmas!

I will be missing the game.

Got some plans and I learned a while ago to prioritize the fam over Jerry Jones.

if you can't figure out in 2023 how to either record the game or catch a copy online when you come home - you are technologically inferior and need to do some research. There's several times where I watch the game 3 hours after it's ended and I will avoid looking at the Score and tell family members not to tell me about what's going on - it's not that difficult to do. Worse case scenario, you watch the condensed 40 minute copy the next day with play by play on DAZN

My family is strange and they don’t celebrate holidays so I will be watching the game.

How many of you are not watching the game this Sunday at 4est due to xmas eve plans? I know with my family, we will go to early mass and then out to dinner so I will absolutely miss all of it. I have spectrum streaming so can't even record to watch and when we get home from dinner have magic family time with the 3,7,9 year olds....needless to say, I am going to have to bypass this week due to scheduling.

Hopefully they get the win but curious how many of you are in the same predicament I am in and what you are doing to be able to watch later without knowing how it unfolded?

(PS this thread is not about not watching bc I don't want to or bc trying to make some dumb statement, so lets not make it about that please)
Flying back to VA from Dallas on xmas eve fresh off of touring AT&T tomorrow. The game will be on when I get back in because our family plans events around Cowboys games.

I remember a few years back when the Cowboys were still in Texas Stadium that they played the Eagles on Christmas Day. I wished my family a merry Christmas on the afternoon of Christmas Eve, drove from around the Lubbock, Texas area to Dallas and attended the game in person. I guess that shows you where my priorities lie.

This year I’ll be in Columbus Ohio. Santa will have to wait until after the game is over.

I divorced my wife, left the kids and don’t talk to my parents just to make sure I’m never in your situation on Sunday. COWBOYS OR DIE!!!!

Ok I'm going to my son's inlaws home. ALL WASHINGTON FANS

SUCKS TO BE ME, UNLESS WE WIN!!!!
Oh wow! So sorry to hear!! Let's hope we win so you don't have to endure any abuse at the hands of those washington fans!! If it's any consolation, you can always throw it back in their faces about how much they (commanders, not family LOL) suck!! :grin:

I'll be watching...just me and the wife at Christmas....we have no children. I'd give a Kings Ransom if our little dog was still here with us begging for food...been a VERY tough year without her.
