Anyone else excited for football????

Jlk2016 · August 2016

Pre-season starts today!!!!! Anyone love themselves some good football?? Go Vikings!!! Xoxox

birdiejo · August 2016

Woo! Ravens fans here, but I root for my fantasy players!

rachoochoo2 · August 2016

Go Broncos!!! My 6 year old told me the other day she's ready for the great snacks. Hehe.

jbuck909 · August 2016

Go Packers!!! I'm so excited that it's finally here. My EDD is the Super Bowl, which would be pretty awesome but it's highly unlikely to happen then lol

lfrank12 · August 2016

I'm a Browns fan (very unfortunate I know) but I'm so glad football is back in general! Can't wait until college football is back too!

annewheeler2 · August 2016

So ready!! We're going to a pre-season game the first on September! Niner fans here!!

Kenya715 · August 2016

Die hard Packers fan here and I'm stoked for the season to start! My due date is also close to Super Bowl, which will be interesting. A little worried about not fitting in my Jordy jersey though!

jab3-2 · August 2016

Yup I love football

Xstatic3333 · August 2016

Big Pats fan and slightly unhealthy fantasy player. Can't wait, but this year I'm extra excited because:

1.) Football season is here
2.) Football season always goes quickly
3.) The day after football season ends is my EDD

Hoping for a Pats Super Bowl win, which I think is very likely given how mad at the world Brady's going to be once he's back, followed by a healthy baby the next day.

expandcontract · August 2016

I've tried getting into football many times. But just can't find someone to teach me consistently. But also, I cringe everytime they hit their heads. Can't get used to that.

Lafreeman21 · August 2016

Titans fan here, so I feel your pain, @lfrank12 lol. I just bought a maternity jersey on sale from Motherhood for like $18... but it's tight already

joyful08 · August 2016

DH and I love football season! We watch all the Texans games (and many others). I actually won our friends fantasy league last year

Steelerfan78 · August 2016

I think yinz know who I'm rooting for!

kerris713 · August 2016

Steelers family here too! So excited

BumpasaurusRex · August 2016

I love football season because delicious food on Sunday's.

That counts, right?

blush64 · August 2016

I have never been able to enjoy football. It just doesn't interest me. Hockey is coming though, and I do enjoy that. To be honest my favourite thing to watch is kids sports.

Tennis11785 · August 2016

Fly Eagles Fly! Love me some football!

We're going to announce the pregnancy to some friends at our fantasy football draft. H and I share a team, and we're going to change our team name to something that makes the pregnancy obvious for draft night. So far we're come up with "Carrying the Kicker" or "Chalupa Batman [our last name]" (it's a reference to The League TV show). Any other suggestions of team names we should consider? It's just for draft day, we're going back to our standard name for the actual season.

Schumerator · August 2016

@Tennis11785 lurking from March here, but I plan to do "Drafting for 2" and see who catches on first

Lafreeman21 · August 2016

@Tennis11785 Chalupa Batman FTW. I mean, what could possibly be more fitting?

I vote Chalupa Batman too. I'm not sure I'd get Carrying the Kicker if I didn't have babies on the mind.

angeltennis3 · August 2016

Colts fan here! H is a Browns fan (yuck - sorry @lfrank12 ) so football season gets way better once we stop getting those on tv and 100% cannot stand the Patriots @Xstatic3333 - don't think we can "sit together" during football games!

skiingstark · August 2016

Broncos fan here. But football is boring to me, it goes on and on forever, like there are a million reasons for the game to stop, 5 mins game time can be 20 mins real time. So I watch the Bronco games as background tv, but cannot get into any other football games.

Jlk2016 · August 2016

I love seeing all the football fans!!! If I had enough energy and time I'd say we do some sort of fantasy league type thing!

jab3-2 · August 2016

I'm with Xstatic3333, go Pats!! Can't wait to go to another game if I'm lucky enough to get the chance again!

bdesterhouse · August 2016

@Jlk2016 Go Vikings!!!

We are mainly college football fans in my house though, we love the Huskers!

edit: it cutoff most of what I wrote.

Patience7150 · August 2016

Holla to my fellow Vikings fans!! Just found out my god parents are selling most of their 19th row lower level seats for the season. Why yes I will take a few games, thank you!

Multiple fantasy leagues here, and I'm the commissioner of my work league! So glad to see I'm among friends. With how many people here that are interested in fantasy, we could almost have a F17 BMB league!

jlellis603 · August 2016

Go Patriots! Cant wait to get drafts started for fantasy! In our household, football season starts in like June- we start our fantasy research early. Bummer I cant enjoy beer while watching the games but it is still the best time of the year!

varimama · August 2016

I'm so excited! Bummed i won't get to enjoy any beer with it this year but oh well, the food on Sunday's is awesome! I'm a Bengals fan and DH is a huge Pats fan so I root for the Pats as long as they aren't playing the Bengals. I knew nothing about football before DH but he's really patient with me at explaining rules and I've learned quite a bit! I kicked DH's butt in Pigskin Pickem' last year and ended just shy of 99th percentile! He doesn't think a repeat of that is possible so we shall see!

Moonbeam828 · August 2016

We love football! Mostly college, though I'd never miss my beloved Steelers.

My husband and I went to rival colleges, so it's a house divided between the Florida Gators and FSU Seminoles. The Gators are the best, of course, lol.

Jelly Bean 001 · August 2016

Usually I cant wait for football season, then by thanksgiving I'm usually done with it. But this year we will be due just days before the super bowl. DD was a late baby, so DH was joking about watching the super bowl in the hospital while I'm in labor. LOL. At this point I think its a very good possibility.....football and labor sounds like a bad combo to me. my hubby usually gets loud and rambunctious watching football, so we shall see...

Xstatic3333 · August 2016

Excited to see some other Pats fans! @angeltennis3 we can still be friends six days a week.

birdiejo · August 2016

@Moonbeam828 we are gators fans too.

SweetT · August 2016

As much as I will miss beer during Giants games this year I plan on making so many yummy foods not just our usual chips and dip!

Momma0528 · August 2016

Huge Pats fans in this house! When DD was little, she went through a phase where she would only nap in the car, and she needed "white noise"- talk radio was great- to relax and sleep. I'd put on sports radio and she would pass right out. Prior to that, I liked football just as an excuse to drink beer and party on Sundays and support H, who is the biggest sports fan ever- but once you spend 90 min every afternoon listening to sports radio during football season, you become your own die hard fan.

Xstatic3333 · August 2016

@Momma0528 The Sports Hub? Yeah, that's my go-to radio station. The morning drive and 2-6 shows are pretty entertaining!

FromAstarael · August 2016

Go Seahawks! Hopefully the Chaos Muppet waits until after the super bowl to make an appearance. I always get the most knitting done during the football season....

They sure are entertaining! It made it much more fun to watch on TV once I knew all the background drama going on behind the scenes. Plus those guys are hysterical to listen to!

Me too!!

krob · August 2016

Super excited to see so many other football fans. I'm a huge college fan, Hook 'em Horns! I grew up an Oilers fan, but when they left for Tennessee I never really recovered. I pseudo cheer for the Texans b/c my parents have tickets and my dad is obsessed. I play in a couple of fantasy leagues and cheer for my player and def watch whatever is on each week.

My husband's awesome job takes him to Super Bowl every year and usually I tag along (just for the parties and festivities, no game for me). This year since the game is in Houston, our hometown, we were planning on going as usual, but also I was going to go to the game. Now with my due date a week after we are missing out. But obviously for a fantastic reason.

LaurenAshley04 · August 2016

DH is a huge Buffalo Bills fan.... So obviously every season starts with hope and ends in sadness. I've been to 1 game and watched a few. There training camp is hosted by the college I graduated from so I have love for them but football isn't something I really stop to watch.

FishyMom · August 2016

I am loving all the Packer love!!!! Die hard here too!!

Anyone else excited for football????
