Giants Talk, v 2.0

[BigEd76]

Eagles are a 3-pt favorite, O/U 42.5

For the 5th time in 9 FOX appearances, the game will be called by Albert/Moose/Goose

[Diomedes]

Would be nice if the Eagles could somehow get up and play the spoiler.

calling for rain again sunday....this would be the third rain game of the year....in the nine seasons prior i believe there was one (where it actually rained during the game) and that was a sunday nite game vs atlanta...i might be missing one other but you get the point...this year has been a nightmare at home

bears choke
dallas rout
taterskin loss
rain out the ass

I went to a night game a few years ago against Dallas, maybe 5-6 years ago, that  rained for much of the game. It was about 40 degrees and miserable  by the end of the game. I remember they were selling these cheap piece of crap ponchos for something like $30.

[Magical_Retard]

why are the eagles favorites each week? esp against a 8-4 team?

[Diomedes]

You get three points for home field, right?

Maybe my memory is being lazy today, but the only bad-weather game I can remember Andy Reid winning was the 2005 NFCCG. I could easily be wrong about that, though...

you sure youre not thinking of the sunday nite atlanta game?...or are we thinking about the same game but it was dallas not atlanta

i remember the dallas game where doug pederson hit cj for the win late...the irvin booing game...where it rained at tailgate real hard but not during the game

would lazy be forgetting two weeks ago against miami?

i woudlnt call the nfccg bad weather...blizzard the day before but at game time the field was in good shape...yes it was cold and windy but starting about december 1 thats pretty much every game from the ohio valley to the northeast

[rjs246]

The weather didn't seem that zesty against Miami, but in all honesty, Matt and I were at a bar and hung over beyond all repair, so it's entirely possible that I simply didn't notice the weather at all.

[ice grillin you]

it pretty much rained the entire game

it was the game before they replaced the field

[rjs246]

So to answer your question, Yes, that would definitely qualify as lazy. Carry on.

[SunMo]

thank goodness for ponchos

The NFCCG against the Falcons started off as a miserable day but by game time there wasn't a cloud in the sky.  It was cold as a motherfarger but it was a sparkling blue sky sort of day.  I have pictures of the start of the tailgate when it was still snowing and again when we walked over to the stadium.  It looks like two entirely different days.

The Seahawks game in 2005 it started out raining and then turned to snow.

I looked it up on NFL.com - it was the 9/30/01 against Dallas. I remembered Brian Mitchell fumbling away the opening kickoff and then loosing another punt still in the 1st quater because of the rain and stiff breeze.  Although the weather sucked, it's all good anytime you can see the Eagles stomp the Cowboys live. Light rain, 53 degrees, 13mph wind at kickoff, but would get worse on and off during the game.
