im not saying you cant go to a road game week one im saying you cant put together a road trip week one

attending an away game = 4 or less people

road tripping = 10 or more people

i dont know what 5-9 people is called

Gathering on the road?

road gaggle maybe?

what would be harder about doing a roadie in week one compared to any other week? other than tickets maybe being a little bit harder or more expensive.

most heads i know go to the shore or away for vacations in august and/or take time off and travel around labor day...so another trip a week later isnt really feasible both time off wise and $$$ wise

then theres the undefineable part of it but something everyone feels...and thats the fact that it just doesnt seem right...like you arent into full on football mode like youre when its in the heart of the fall and getting colder and 6-78 or whatever games into the schedule...i cant really explain it but its a feeling that doesnt exist week one

Up in GB, it was a bit of a weird feeling until the tailgate started. You'd be surprised how fast that feeling comes back. Once I found the party of Birds fans, you could have told me it was mid-November and I woulda been fooled.

But, generally, I agree. Roadtrips are better when the team is 5 or 6 games deep or so.

Riveting. I'm still going.

If the Eagles open at Carolina I will definitely not be there. I will, however, be at the home opener this year. I don't care if I have to sell a kidney - I ain't missing another opener for the rest of my life.
