I will watch the Pats if I'm around and there's not a Kings game on; I will not make a real concerted effort to watch the game, i.e. I will not bring my life to a halt just to watch football, but if I'm home I'll most likely watch. Besides, the World Junior Hockey Championships are going on now. Nothing like watching hockey at 8:30 am (they're playing in Finland).
As for college football, forget it. What a waste of a perfectly good cow pasture.
