Gonna be a great bunch of games this Sunday.... can't wait.  But sad to know that this will probably be the last time I watch my guys play this season.  I wonder if all teams will be playing their starters?

So Alex I heard on the news this morning that people are shoveling snow out of the Bills stadium for $10/hr. So how much snow did they get?

Thankfully the Patriots are in Miami this week, or they would be shoveling out Gillette stadium, too.  Boston should get quite a bit of snow, too.  Here in So. Maine it has just started snowing again.  The snow total amounts forcasted have gone slowly up and up all week until now we have a Winter Storm Warning in effect for 4-6 inches.  We'll probably end up with another foot on top of the foot we got earlier in the week.    :(

Great way to end the year with everyone's team winning!  I'm sorry Bettyjean and Cynthia that your teams didn't make the playoffs even though they won.  :(  Congratulations Alex on Buffalo beating the NY Jets!  (evil laugh at Jets)

Yes, we are just fine after the snow.  They got more snow in Foxborough than we did, we got about 5-6 inches.

Congratulations Joy! Forgot how bad it feels when your team is out of playoffs.... For us it was too little too late. So sorry Cyn... It wasn't just your team that took us out.... we needed Vikings to lose also. I was shocked about Lovie Smith too! The only coach I expected to go was Andy Reid. Congrats Alex on your team beating the Jets. Wow. Can't believe it's over and playoffs are here already.
