It is Iggle weekend

[chelelev]

The biggest weekend of the NFL season (next to Superbowl but one step at a time).  No wonder January 24th is the most depressing day (and I do hope it is real depressing in Atlanta Monday am) of the year.

I have paid homage to the playoff gods.  Proper sacrifices of cold beer and chips have been acquired for the Sunday am sacrificial service.  I am prepared not to watch if they seem to do better without me, I will not be wearing any Iggle gear (but if it appears that they need me to put it on, it is ready to go).  I really really really want to be doing the Happy Dance come 4 pm est (wearing my Iggle wardrobe at that point).

GO IGGLES!

I have my green shirt, clean and ready to wear, but not sure if the playoff gods want me to wear it or not. How will I know???

Have they won when you wore a green shirt before? If not, don't do it (my policy). Others seem to be able to wear Iggles colors and they still win.

That's the hard part-- I'm not consistent in wearing it on game days, but I think they have won AND lost when I wear it. I have decided I will NOT be wearing it today. I will also not be wearing the cheesey "Football: An American Tradition" sweatshirt my dad's wife got me for xmas a few years ago. Pretty sure I wore that last year. And, I will NOT be ordering Pizza and Wings. Whatever we eat today, will already be in the house. Pretty sure we did the pizza and wings thing for the last two years. (I'm talking about specifically the NFC Championship game.)
Three years ago, when it was an away game, we watched it with our pal who has season tickets. So, the last two years he was at the games, and that wasn't an option.
6 hours 15 minutes to game time, and it's still snowing...

It is still snowing? Oh my. What are the snow accumulations?

We went to a bar last year, won't be doing that this year.

Be prepared to change plans if current situations are not working. Last year, when they were 3rd and 26? I ran and got the Iggle's jammies on and they won that game. Wore the jerseys out (with jammie bottoms and turtlenecks) and they lost big time.
