NFL Playoffs

â†µ

Seattle Seahawks at Chicago Bears, 1, Fox: I, for one, am throwing the full cindered, splintered force of my remaining fandom behind the Nautical Neon. If the Atlanta Falcons cannot remain in the postseason tournament, and must be quarantined from it with such efficient haste, then it's time to set fire to the jungle, blow up a hospital, watch the world burn, and whatever else happened in The Dark Knight, a very confusing movie. Live coverage here, plus Field Gulls and Windy City Gridiron for communal viewing.

â†µ

New York Jets at New England Patriots, 4:30, CBS: Rooting for the Pats here, because the Falcons are modeled after them and I'd like it reaffirmed that we are indeed headed somewhere great, and because a loss by the Jets would bring greater suffering to more people than would the opposite. If you'd like me to root for your team today, you're really going to need to convince me a win by your team causes either absolute madness or a whole lot of angry humanity. Live coverage here, and stop by Gang Green Nation or Pats Pulpit.
