For 2 weeks only, we root for the packers

Mardigras9 · 01-07-2013, 09:40 AM

Packers - Seahawks NFC championship would be best case senario for me. I kinda hope Manning gets the Bronco's there AFC wise. I can't stand the thought of Atlanta in the Superbowl in the Dome.

Agreed any team but the Dirty Birds. I hope the Hawks run over them.

Just my 2 cents

Don't disagree - Texans have definitely lost a lot of their swagger. The Seahawks and the Texans are the only two teams I can stomach seeing in the Superbowl.

I'm sure it will end up worst-case scenario so I can really not care an ounce - 49ers vs. Ravens

If it is 49ers-Ravens, I may be cheering for the Mayans to have been off a few weeks...

This is what I hope for the NFCCG.

And bring back the replacement refs!

Texans are going to get stomped this weekend, as for the NFC screw that punk Rogers and the Packers, Seahawks all the way

How do you guys change allegiance through the playoffs when a team loses in a round?

I cant root for anyone but New Orleans. If my daughters team didnt make the playoffs I wouldn't care what happened in the playoffs.

As much as I don't like the Falcons, it expends too much energy to hate them so much to root for their loss... I just don't care what they do or dont do lol.

For some, it is effortless to hate the clowns. Most might consider it less work than breathing.

It's not a thing of rooting for another team, althought the OP stated it as such. I do have other teams that I honestly don't mind watching. TBH Dallas, Detroit, Denver are some of them.

I don't expend effort on hating Atlanta, its just the way I was raised so it's second nature.

The hate flows freely ... Trust me.

However no matter how much I hate Atlanta I cant Cheer for Seattle. They took us out of the playoffs remember...

Also.. after the way this season has gone. The way absolutely nothing has gone our way.. I am not about to end up in a support group because I vested emotional equity in Seattle and they lose.
