As you may have realized over the past couple weeks - playoff football is taking over the world, or at least the weekends. Apologies if your team choked and you're out - my team didn't even make the playoffs (booo!).
If you haven't been keeping up with playoffs, get with it and start now. Between the different divisions, conferences, blah blah blah, it can be a bit confusing. Luckily for you - now it gets easy. There are only four teams left & one final weekend of playoffs. Something you should remember from this post is that there are two conferences in the NFL. One team from each conference will win a spot in the Super Bowl, and those deciding games are taking place this Sunday:
NFC (National Football Conference)
Sunday @ 3:00*
GREEN BAY PACKERS
vs.
CHICAGO BEARS

AFC (American Football Conference)
Sunday @ 6:30*

The winner of the NFC game will play the winner of the AFC game at the big showdown, the SUPER BOWL! This quickly approaching, glorious event, is happening February 6th. Mark your calendars - or set a reminder on your iPhone, BlackBerry, iPod, laptop, iPad, Driod - whatever.
So get your SUNDAY FUNDAY shirts on, mimosas in hand, and glue yourself to the TV for the games. Good luck if you're fortunate enough to have a team still fighting - and if not, drink up :)
*Remember - games are listed at Eastern Time.
