Ready For Some Football/Futbol!

The Seattle Seahawks kick off their season with a home preseason home game at Qwest Field against the Tennessee Titans at 7:00, carried by NBC affiliate KING 5 TV. Currently 93 here at 3:30, it will be just under 90 at game time.

Entering the final third of their season, with 10 matches to go, the Seattle Sounders Soccer (Futbol) Club kicks off at 8:00 in an away match with Chivas USA near Long Beach, CA. The match will be carried by KONG 6 TV. At game time the temp will be about 65.

I'm ready. I'll be in my recliner in front of the TV in my air conditioned house, set at 75. I'll follow the Seahawks for the first hour, and then pick up the Sounders to watch that match in its entirety. Fortunately the blue and green work for both teams. I may have to change shirts.

It would be a dilemma as to which to watch except that the soccer game counts and the football game doesn't.

Are you ready for some football?

  1. Hi Linda, You are lucky to have AC! Enjoy the football and futbol!
    Don't believe the weather man when he tells you Whidbey is in the 70s. It is unusually hot here. They must take the reading right next to the water or something. It feels more like 85+ today. We used to live in Eastern WA, so I know what I'm talking about!!!!
    Anyway, just popping in to see what's new and say "hi."

  4. Yesterday it was 90 in Snohomish, 20 degrees hotter than normal. It was 88 in Bellingham, and today it will be hotter. Air conditioning sounds great right now! Love your picture, Linda!

  5. Yes, Linda, I certainly am! Not certain I'll be following the Eagles as much this year since they traded our beloved McNabb to DC, but I'm ready to cheer on the Ravens!
    I think it's time for Ruth from Visions and Revisions to re-pub her posting on football for women -- at least for me...

  9. For the life of me, I can't figure out what's going on in a game of football. First someone has the ball and starts to run with it, then someone blows a whistle, then everything stops...over and over again. It's way beyond my comprehension.
