		<description>They just showed a dude running across the field clearing the lines with a shovel. 

That kicks ass.

Ok, flipping over to Sens/Wings now. Even though I'm a Leaf fan, a non-Leaf game once in awhile on HNIC is a welcome sight after the Leafs have pretty much hit rock bottom.</description>

		<description>Grant's third TD of the game. 

There is so much snow that Mel Lastman would be calling the Canadian Armed Forces right about now....

If Green Bay didn't gift wrap two TD's to the Seahawks it would be 42-3 right now.

Men against boys.

		<description>Grant runs it down to the Seahawk 16.

Someone else rams it ahead to the 4.

Commercial break.

Keeeee-ripes!</description>

		<description>Back after the commercial break and you can barely see the field or players.

This is great - my favourite type of NFL game to watch: Northern city, adverse conditions, snow, blizzard, slippery field, playoff game, natural grass - this one has all the pre-requisites - except the fact that my team is the road opponent and is getting steamrolled.

At this point, I'm just going to enjoy the snow.</description>

		<description>35-17 GB. After an impressive drive, Hasselbeck throws to the corner of the end zone and Pollard whiffs on it - through his hands. 

Don't know if I can blame him - it's a driving snowstorm and each flake looks to be the size of a softball.

Somehow, Josh Brown boots a 27-yarder. 35-20 Pack.

Finally, an impressive drive from the Seahawks. If it wasn't a freaking blizzard and the Packers offensive is firing on all cylinders, buzzsawing it's way through the porous Seahawk D, then I would say 'lots of time left', but they needed to come away with 7 at least for me to take them seriously.</description>

		<description>Hasselbeck takes a knee. 28-17 GB at the half after the Pack score TD's on their last 4 possessions.

Apparently this ties a Packer record for first half playoff points. Lynn Dickey (yes, Lynn Dickey) lead the Packers to 28 first half playoff points vs. the St. Louis Cardinals back in 1983 I assume since it's a 25-year old record.

Lynn Dickey? I think the last time I heard his name was reading it in the TV Guide sports section on a Monday Night Football preview in around 1984/85....</description>

		<description>21 points in 12.5 minutes for the Packers.

Someone do the math - we could be in for a scoring record today unless some defensive players in teal, um, I mean turquoise, or actually, I think it's 'steel blue' shows up to play....</description>

		<description>Seahawks fumble. Green Bay recovers at the Seattle 19.

Yep, gettin' ugly. Fast.

First down Pack to the 7.

Grant runs it to the 3.

They just flashed a graphic: total yards since Seattle's first TD. All I saw was Seattle: -5. Green Bay was in triple digits. 

Just as I thought, without the two early turnovers, this one is a blowout. The Seattle offence just can't do anything - despite his short TD run, Alexander is a non-factor. The snowy field is no excuse either, as the Packers have been running all over the place. Favre has had his way with the Seahawk D.

Commercial break now before the Pack up their lead...</description>

		<description>Speaking of brutal, the Packers just tied the game up (depending on the single point) after the Seahawks jumped out to a 14-0 lead thanks to two early brutal turnovers by the Pack.

Looks like my prediction of a Packers' romp is still intact - they could've got down on themselves, but give them credit - Favre has stuck to the gameplan and the crowd has willed them back in this.

The snow is flying at Lambeau in a 14-14 tie in the 1st quarter of a playoff game - now THIS is football!

Good on the Seahawks for jumping out to the big lead on the road, but that's it - their offence has done nada without the help of their defence handing them primo field position. 

I look for the Pack to keep rolling from here.  

My prediction for the final score will be: Packers 35, Seahawks 17.</description>
