Game Day ***Cowboys vs Packers Pre-game thread***

[RS12]

League has to be silently hoping for Cowboys win. Bigger ratings going forward. Cowboys/ Seahags and then Cowboys/ Pats would pull huge ratings.

I've got my Alundis Brice throwback on.

But I got a Packers hat nearby just in case.

 

[Risen Star]

I go full fledged sickening homer mode with a win today.

Hopefully you won't need that Packers hat.

Actually, they've been practicing indoors all week. Cowboys have practiced outdoors.

I find it hard to believe the field conditions today are a surprise to the home team, that's all I'm saying.

Spent 2 hours this morning driving on snowy country roads with my 14 year old daughter who got her driver's permit yesterday.

It was a bit of a white-nuckler but it was an excellent way to take my mind off of the game and fast forward a bit on the day.

You can get a permit at 14 now?

Hey, I have class...but maybe just for this game we should use Cole Beasley on defense and send him on a few timely and early blitzes. If the calf tears, so be it. It was incidental.

In Michigan they can start driving with a guardian at 14 years 9 months.

I'm sure it's not. They also didn't get an extra special advantage from practicing in it either.

That's what I was thinking.

No offense to the man's daughter, but no way am I getting into a car driven by a 14 year old.

No offense, but that's...terrifying.

 

[Vintage]

I think Iowa is still 14 for a permit.

As you can imagine the conditions here in Michigan can get quite awful. Quite often we are driving on "snow pack" roads where there is no pavement -- just packed snow.

The thought process is here is to get the kiddies as much experience driving in the muck with mom/dad in the passenger seat before they go off on their own when they are 16.

 

[Tabascocat]

14 is way too young. Heck, even 16 is too young!

The Packers are a storied franchise too.

I think the league just wanted the Panthers out of it. It's all gravy now. The Seahawks don't share the history of the Cowboys and Packers but they're the defending champs.

 

[landroverking]

To an old timer like me this feels like Vikes playoff game 1975.

No one thought we could win. See Hail Mary.

Next week blew out Rams on the road 37-7.

FYI. I'll take it in a heart beat.
