Golden Nuggets: Oh yes, football is still happening

Good morning folks. It seems that some folks have calmed down quite a bit when it comes to Jim Tomsula, Jed York and all of the nonsense that's going on right now. I was legitimately surprised by the general lack of insanity and attempts to burn down the site in my random musings post yesterday -- from the looks of things everybody here was set to give up on sports altogether when Tomsula's announcement came through.

Whatever the case, the conference championship games will be played today and I'm interested to see where everyone is rooting. I'm assuming most everyone here is pulling for the Green Bay Packers so the Seattle Seahawks can't repeat. Honestly, I'd rather the Seahawks win, as Packers fans are much more annoying and have historically been more of a thorn in the San Francisco 49ers' side than Seattle. Big picture, ya'll.
