Ahh, it's snowing. Nothing like playing football in the snow at Green Bay. WHAT, it's in Seattle. I just assumed because Green Bay was playing. Whoops.

I probably would have been less surprised if it started raining Starbucks and grunge bands instead of snowing in Seattle.

I was confused though. I swore Green Bay was the home team but Seattle was listed as the home team. All a very complicated process.

You mean they weren't playing in Green Bay???!!!! The storm must have taken a wrong turn in Albaquerque(insert bad Bugs Bunny inpression).
I don't think I've ever seen it snow in Seattle let alone that hard this early in the winter season(I know it's not winter yet, but first frost brings winter in my book). Man I want it to snow here now....

Yeah, we used to get snow in November in Seattle when I was growing up- about every 5-6 years. None the less, still a good game. It's the first time I ever felt homesick in 3 years since I moved to Arizona.

Global warming!
Actually, the Seattle-Tacoma area is just getting off its wettest month in history. It was raining hard and non-stop in the early parts of November, we had shattered the record for wettest November by the 16th or something crazy like that. Didn't hinder Alexander though, so I'm fine.

What did Seattle pay $400+ million for a roof for? That's the real question. But don't get me wrong, I'd much rather see football played in the snow, if that's an option.

Football is more fun in the snow.

Maybe some ingenius football executive will buy a couple of snow-making machines (like the kind at ski slopes) and install them at the four corners of an indoor stadium. Then you could have snow at all the games. You could even dye the snow to match team colors and blast it all over the stadium -- just don't eat the purple snow in Baltimore! ;)
It'd be nice to get some snow. But Chicago is bogarting it all.

I would like to see a game at Bronco Stadium (Boise St.) in the snow.

I guess Favre kind of brings the weather with him.

I have to agree that football is more fun in the snow, however, the novelty of snow wears off if it happens to much. Snow every once and a while is awesome, but when it's snowing week in and week out, it gets annoying.

It looks nice on TV but it's a pain in the neck(literally) for alot of players.
There's a reason the fields are almost totally cleared before games when it snowed...

Wasn't this a fun game. That Raiders-Patroits fumble or no-fumble play.52

You are making my point for me. For fans it was a fun game, but neither team liked playing in that stuff.

I agree it's not fun if you're an NFL player, and you care about winning, but as a kid, playing on your front lawn, it's way more fun when you can push people into the snow... man, I wish I still lived on the Cape.
