Has the NFL not only become the "no fun league" but also "the wimps who stole Christmas" from Eagles fans?

3rd consecutive week weather has screwed up a Vikings game... I’m guessing that has never happened before in the No Fun League... dome collapse - move to Detroit; last week moved outside in MPLS, and now this.

I can remember when they were big and strong enough to play outside.

The best games are the snow games.

I was VERY disappointed to hear of the postponed game.

NFL games are NEVER supposed to be canceled or postponed because of weather. They play the games, no matter what.

I’m not liking what I’m seeing lately. Penalties for good hits, and postponing games due to weather. Damn, just put skirts on them and be done with it.

Not good.......

What's with the “Mama's boys”? The Patriots, Bears and the other cold weather teams never cancel!

The mayor declared the state of emergency and “asked” (with force of law) people to stay off the streets after 2PM. Should the NFL have said “ignore your mayor, come to the game”?

Could the NFL now stand for “No Fun League”?

National Fairy League

Yesterday in Chicago it started snowing during the first quarter, the snow was coming down hard, and the fans started cheering the snow. It was just a little lake effect snow and very quickly let up, but hey! In Chicago we’re not afraid of snow, what’s with Philadelphia?

I agree with you. One has to wonder if the Ice Bowl or the Freezer Bowl would have been played today under these NFL rules.

This reminds me of something that happened in the late 80s (believe fall of '88)... Texas Aggies were to host Alabama at Kyle Field (College Station, TX)... but the tide decided to postpone playing the Fighting Farmers due to the possibility of a hurricane blowing through the Gulf of Mexico into the Texas mainland... believe it is was hurricane Andrew.

The day of the postponed game it was perflectly sunny.

More like 'Bama decided to wimp out because their starting qb had a boo boo and the tide's head coach didn't want to face the Wrecking Crew.

The NFL has been the “No Fun League” for a long time. I haven’t followed it in years. I’m strictly a college football fan and root for the USC Trojans and the Occidental College Tigers.

Fight on and Io Triumphe!
