The NFL Playoffs thread

Man, before the Pats won their first Super Bowl, this city hadn't won a pro sports championship since the '86 Celtics. In football, we'd NEVER seen a championship and in baseball it'd been 86 years. The Bruins haven't won the finals since 1972. Boston was, for a long time, the big well-known long suffering sports city. We've passed that torch on to Cleveland and Minnesota's got nothing to bitch about compared to them.
But, by all means, let's continue this "wah, wah, I can cry more than you can" contest.

I'm from Philly.
So basically, fuck everyone. This city has been so barren of sports success, there's a movie and a Wikipedia page about it.

Oh, and fuck the Giants, and fuck the Pats. I'll let them show me massive men violently wrestling and tackling each other over a piece of leather, but I'm going to be cheering at interceptions no matter who makes them.

I dislike both teams so I don't care a great deal about the game. I'm considering watching for the ads, but I have a paper to write so I'll probably just go look up the good ones online after the fact.

That's because you're also the big well-known media center alongside New York, the big well-known media center who happens to be your rival. It's like if Paris Hilton stubbed her toe during a slapfight with Britney Spears in LA and suddenly it's seen as a tragedy. Seriously, whoever gets the most attention is whoever whines about it the loudest. Cleveland definitely has it worse off than Minny, but how about Buffalo and the consecutive Superbowl losses? And Cleveland's always had it worse than you guys; at least you guys never lost any of your teams.

My family's watching the game as a bonding experience. We really don't know that much about football and we don't care who wins but we like the commercials, know the rules enough to follow the game, and are having an awesome time making home-made buffalo wings! Yes, I am bringing cooking into this thread.
We've got three flavors mixed up:
You're basic Frank's Hot sauce and butter
Honey barbecue and Jack Daniels
Brown Sugar and Chipotle barbecue
man, I haven't eaten today, and these are looking pretty fuckin' good. We've got like somewhere around 120, bought 4 packs of fifteen full wings and I butchered em up, using the tips to make broth for something, since I didn't want to waste em.
