All the shenanigans of Halloween trick-or-treating and party going seems like mere child’s play considering the line-up of football action heading into a Sunday afternoon. For football fanatics who thrive on the game the mass lineup of games means choosing between the comfort of one’s home with friends and family with one game at a time on the big screen or heading to a sports bar to watch several games colliding at once from every possible angle. Eventually among the teams playing a Sleeping Giant will arise to take center stage and steal the show. This team will be the talk of the sports world – until the following Sunday of course.
