X-mas Eve Dilemma

JEP · December 23rd, 2004, 21:43

So tomorow is X-mas eve and we are headed to the in-laws. My wife is working until 130p and is planning on going right after work. Now the dilemma, The Vikings v. Packers game starts at 2p. My options are leave home early and get to the inlaws prior to kickoff and then watch the game with a bunch of screaming rug-rats and people running around or stay home and watch the game on the big screen and go to the inlaws after.

I think I know what I'll do.

I applaud your decision ... however, how does your wife feel about that?

She is fine with that, I think. I threw her a bone and said if the game was a sluaghter either way, I will eave home early and listen on the radio, it's about a 45 minute drive. Besides we can't really leave the doggy alone for that long. I would have a mess when we got back. If I am lucky my wife will stop by and pick up my two little ones and then I can watch the game in complete silence. Ahhh, what peace that would be.

But of Course.....Will you be watching yourself? I saw your note about closing MSP. Do you have people coming in or are you lucky enough to be leaving the frozen tundra??

Whaddya mean? I thought it was a great game!

Hey ... I know in the end it was still a dismal season, but those 'Skins (season tix holder here

) had 'em scrambling rough most of the game.

My hope, Greg Williams stays on and maybe take over for Gibbs one he re-retires.

I meant the Redskins D causing the Vikings offense to scramble in a panic ... I tend not to make any sort of bragging comments which includes the Redskins offense
