The Minnesota Vikings are playing Philadelphia this weekend. who do you think will win the Game? My friend is a Viking fan but he say's that the Vikings will not win and is getting all depressed over a game that hasn't even happened yet. I just hope it is a great game. Not to many turn overs. So who is going to watch the game this weekend? Have a great time watching and thank you. Happy New Year.

Try being a viking fan. That is really something. They get you all worked up just to let you down. They have been to the SuperBowl 4 times and lost all four times. Oh and here that was in the 70's. Other wise so close but so far. I like a few teams. Your friend onlydia

I don't watch football as much as I used to anymore. Maybe because of the extremely disappointing seasons my Rams keep putting together. However, I do watch quite closely come playoff time. The games on Saturday I wont be able to watch but Sunday there will be a party at my house, haha. As far as the Vikings and Eagles go...I like the Vikings in this one. They have the best running back in the league but a good enough QB where they don't need to rely on Peterson the whole game. They have a decent enough D where the offense can carry them through. If they do happen to get past the Eagles I don't see them going any further than that, but they sure do have a shot this weekend.

Yes I like them as well, but one never knows until the game is over. The Rams will get it maybe next year. Always have hope look at the Vikings I mean really. But I'm still a fan. You have a great weekend watching the game.

Oh yeah, I'll be watching even though my Giants don't play this week. Hoping for a repeat of last years playoffs. Nothing beats the NFL for great games. Happy New Year!

The first day of the year is the most boring day in terms of televsion watching. I will not be watching any games. I think mostly college games are played. I do not like college football. My husband will be watching all day, he loves sports and can sit and watch game after game after game. I will probably be on the computer most of the day. Have a Happy football watching New Year

There was nothing but collage football on. I turned on the radio and then went to the store for milk. And walked around and picked up some sale items and just walked the store and paid and came home. And still nothing on so came on here. You have a good day. I'm only going to watch the vikings game unless it is blacked out.

Yes, I will be watching the Sugar Bowl on Friday night,pulling for Alabama. And I will watch the Philadelphia/Minnesota game as well. I love football. There is no reason to get depressed over a game that hasn't happened. Many things could happen for the Vikings to pull out a win - nothing is impossible.

Nothing is impossible, but it's improbable for them to pull out a win against the Eagles. After all, the Eagles beat the Dallas Cowboys other day 44-6. I love to see McNabb play and I think they will win. I told my husband that Romo might be out of the QB'ing position with Dallas because of that game. They had lost the previous one to Baltimore and the 4th one back to Pittsburg. They haven't done too good this year at all and McNabb took them out of the playoffs.

That is what I told him. He just looked at me like yeah right. I said well, it's not like the Quarter Back will miss the ball again. I did laugh my butt off when I seen that. I almost fell off the couch. He looked at me and said it's not funny. I told him sure it's like watching a comedy.That was the week the messed up bad. He was reallyyelling at the TV like a crazy man.Have a Happy New Year

Depression and football go hand in hand! And no ones more depressed than me being a Bucs fan starting the season 9-3 and losing 4 straight to miss the playoffs(S**t!!)But living in Florida means you route for Florida Teams.I still got the Gators Who will win it all I might add-and the Dolphins.The sad thing is it'll be all over- -College and Pro --in just a little while... Let us bow our heads. The Football Gods will be listening until Feb.

I'm not a football fan myself, although my husband is a disappointed Patriots fan. He's more into college football though, and he's been watching a lot of the bowl games. I'm happy about that, while he's watching football, I get the computer.

I sit and do mylot when the game is on as the TV is right in the next room. And I don't have to my roommate yells. NO,Yes and then a few other words that I can't say. It is to funny. I think that is why I like watching the game with him. I need ear plugs for this next game how ever. You have a great day. your friend onlydia
