Football or Snowmobile?

[Drewd]

Seems like many would rather sled than watch football.

Do NFL championship games mean less less traffic and more untracked powder in the mountains? Does football take a back seat to a good day of sledding?

I was invited to sled today but after 11 hours at work yesterday, I was too exhausted to drive 3-4 hours each way starting early this morning.

I'll have the game on in the background while I help out around the house. I'm rooting for Denver because I live in CO but I did grow up 30 minutes South of Foxboro statdium.

Hope PM doesn't choke and doesn't turnover the ball too much.

What did you do today? Did you head out to ride or did you stay home to watch?

The NFL should hold one game Sat evening & one Sunday evening.
Problem solved.

Snowmobiling is #1 for me.
I will however try to schedule my rides around football if i can, that is why i rode yesterday.
Go Broncos and Cardinals!

My buddies are at Hahn's Peak Roadhouse now.
One is a Bronco fan......he's watching the game, everyone else is riding!

I rode 70mi.(35 was trail in and back) Fri and 35mi. yesterday both in deep snow so I'm loafing in the recliner today. I only live 30 min. from a trail head on the Flattops tho. so not a big deal.

Congratulations Donkey fans!
Their Defense played great.

I think it will be Panthers as the champs this yr.
Would be nice of Manning could win one more before he retires.

What is this football you speak of? How sitting on your a$$ watching a bunch of overpaid babboons chase a ball around on TV can even come close to the experience of blasting through the snow in the mountains an a sunny winter day IS BEYOND MY COMPREHENSION. What a waste of time...

CO Powder, i used to be the same as u.
Go to a home game with some of ur close friends.
It's not the same as snowmobiling but u would not believe the energy 70,000 people can create! It is a 3+ hr rush. Screaming, yelling, jumping, drinking, it is more fun than most would imagine.

There is a very good reason why I live in the sticks. It is because I want NOTHING to do with 70,000 people screaming, yelling, jumping and drinking...


Especially over something as silly as football. Used to be players in pro sports were loyal to their team and fans. These days they are loyal to their pocketbook changing teams for a few extra bucks. Sorry can't support behavior like that with my pocketbook.


It isn't like I haven't been to pro football, basketball, baseball and hockey games because I have. I just never understood the fascination or where the entertainment value was.


This is where I was during every weekend of football season... Super easy choice for me.
