The Cardinals are such a snake-bitten franchise that it might be time to consider an exorcism. Only Satan could be responsible for their long string of ill-fated moves. The Monday night disaster against the Bears was the most glating example.

The Vikes are just a mediocre team, IMO.

Other than an incident with an elbow to the face that may well have been deliberate, no, not really.

Who struck whom? Was there a red card?

In case I spoil it for anyone, I'll write it in white below.

Drogba on Vidic not long after he had been tackled by fellow defender Heinze. And no he didn't get a red card, only a yellow.

The final score was 1-1.

Do you not mind knowing the score before you see it then? Or are you not going to watch it?

Im not sure what I am going to watch.

There is the Thanksgiving Bond marathon..Dr No and Thunderball this aftrernoon

There is the NFL

There is a Flavor of Love season 1 marathon

All this choice might make my head explode.

I don't mind knowing the score before I see a game tbh. I guess that's the difference between me and a fan of a team.
It also means I don't have to watch it (or fast forward through on video), if it's not that interesting.

Sports dont play well on tape for me. I like the adreniline rush of being in the moment and not knowing what will happen. Some people cant handle it. I couldnt watch a couple of the Angels WS games because it was just too damn stressful. NBA HoFer Jerry West, when he was GM of the Lakers, couldnt take watching the team play. Maybe its genetic?

Maybe. But if you're a fan of a team, obviously you'll want to be there when they win, you'll want to see it happen live.

If you can take the pressure. I am not sure whether being a fan makes any difference here. Sometimes its so nervewracking that you have to turn it off.

I dunno, to me that is a red flag that you have too much invested in a game.

Definitly agree thats a red flag. But Im not sure its necessarily a bad thing to be so passionate. Rewards: The incredible rush you get with a win. Punishment: The agony of a loss. I dont know this but Im guessing that this is a hard-wired genetic trait.

But the down side are the commercials and how they mute the music that runs over the credits at the end of the film to promote TNA wrestling.
