It's that time of year again...
the time when the leaves start changing, the air gets crisp and many married women become single once again...at least on Sundays.
Football.
Whether college football is your thing, NFL or even fantasy (God bless those wives) it definitely consumes the lives of many men.
There are certainly levels of consumption:
Let's start with the average dude...he roots for his team of choice, tunes in on Sunday to see who's playing and catches up on all the rest with SportsCenter.
Next we have the "fan". He roots for one team, likes to spout off statistics and buys tickets to see his team play. His Sunday's are booked from now until January. He tail-gates and yells at the TV. His wife knows that the backyard project is going to have to wait until Spring and she wouldn't even mention the invite for Sunday brunch.
Finally, the Crazy.
This is the guy that owns jerseys...even though the last time he actually played in a football game was 1992.
He is part of multiple fantasy leagues.
He may or may not have been spotted on the Jumbo-Tron with his face painted and a foam finger.
He lives and breathes football all year long, from the drafts to the training camps to the pre-season.
His Sundays are ruined when his team loses and considers the players extended family.
Now, if you don't live in the United States you are probably not affected by Sunday Football Syndrome...
but, to those of us who reside here in Football-land, we all probably know a few of the "types" I listed above.
So since you're here why don't we make football a little cute?
Whadaya say?
Pizza is one of the quintessential football foods...
but, since this is my blog...I'm gonna do pizza MY way.
Cookie pizza!
Here's the recipe:
2 sticks softened butter
1/2 cup light brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 1/4 cups AP flour
3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Topping:
2 cups mini marshmallows
Any candy you like..I used chopped Reese's Cups, M&M's and Sno-Caps
Excuse me for a moment while I share some candy porn...
NSFD (Not Safe For Dieters)
Love this little guy.
Everyone's favorite...
Isn't candy pretty?
Thanks for staying with me here :)
Preheat to 350
Combine dry ingredients in bowl (flour, baking soda and salt), set aside
Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy
Add eggs one at a time beating between each addition and add vanilla and beat on medium
until all combined.
Add dry ingredients.
Mix on low until just combined.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Spread batter on round baking dish, 16".
Bake 13 minutes until egdes are browned and middle is just set.
Remove from oven and spread 2 cups mini-marshmallows on top, leaving edges as the "crust".
Bake 2 more minutes.
Remove from oven and spread "toppings" on.
Let cool completely and cut into wedges.
Now that we have dessert covered why not throw caution to the wind and be the coolest wife ever?
You already have dessert made, right?
You're half-way there!
You're half-way there!
Invite some friends over for a fun party.

"Football is synonymous with Sunday at my house. My husband and I do a fantasy draft with my family (dad, brother, sister-in-law, cousin, and a random friend) and the hubby does another draft as well. I've been watching NFL since I was a kid (go bears!), and it's still the only sport I watch. We usually go over to my dad's on Sundays (he has DirecTV Sunday Ticket and laundry facilities), watch football, talk football, have dinner together, and watch some more football. We both get antsy if we have to miss our respective team's games (I'm a Bears fan all the way, and the hubby is the biggest Patriots fans in Iowa). :)"
Congrats to Randi and thanks to everyone who entered!!

football doesn't affect my Sundays because I only watch college football on Saturdays. Go Hawkeyes!
Football takes a huge role in our Sundays. My family loves to sit and watch all the NFL games (I have a fantasy football team) and then we yell real loud for our Cowboys!!
Football season is the best time of year!
I am in love with the cookie cake! I'd watch football just to have a piece or two of that! Football doesn't affect me at all...I'm a part of a baseball loving family!
Okay, please pack up a piece and send it to me. I'm dying here looking at those pictures! I'm making it this weekend and then eating it all by myself. YUM!
As far as Sundays, football IS out Sunday. We start at noon and watch 'til the night game ends.
Love the cookie pizza and love the "NSFD" pictures too!! Fall is a difficult time for us... My fiance wants to watch football on Sundays and I want to watch Desperate Housewives. He normally wins! Thank goodness for DVR.
My husband goes fantasy football crazy on Sundays. For me, it means eating fun snack food and enjoying fun times with the family.
Sundays (and Saturdays!) this time of year for us mean our house is full of people! We have the most get-together friendly house of our close group of friends, so everyone is usually at our house all day on Sundays!
Um we LOVE football season here. I devote Sundays to watching my Bengals, and other games also sometimes. Sometimes we invite friends over, sometimes it is just my fiancee and I. But there is always beer and food! The outcome of the game literally affects my mood for the entire day. And if you saw those Bengals last weekend, lets just say I had a pretty bad Sunday :(
Those plates are so cute! I'm loving it! I have a baseball team and a basketball team but for the life of me I can't choose a football team... so I just watch whatever game is on and choose who I want to win *that* game! Hahahah! Makes for a lot of football :)
Sometimes it affects it in a good way if the Cowboys win, if they lose like last Sunday it is gloomy in my house!
coleandchristy@gmail.com
My husband likes football, but he's not obsessed like most guys. So i would have to say football really doesn't effect our Sunday's. :)
Ps. I love the idea of the cookie pizza. It looks so yummy :)
Football only affects Saturdays around our house (GO Irish!!), and when they play we can't do anything else!
I got down to the second picture and gasped! A cookie pizza! possibly one of the best ideas ever. The toppings look deliciously naughty. I'm in Australia so my weekends are football free.
Football used to not affect my Sundays until I met my now fiance'. But instead of loathe it...I've learned to love it! I learned more about the game and really love watching football. I even have two fantasy football teams now.
my email: lrooney1@gmail.com
Football not only takes over my Sundays, but also my Monday nights. I have a 6 year old crazy fanatic that refuses to miss a Dolphins game... while his mom is busy rooting for the Cowboys!
I used to hate football. Until I met my husband. Now, I love it! Sunday's are our favorite. All nice and cozy with warm food, enjoying the series of games! As you said, our Sundays are booked here until January! But we both love it!
Go Seahawks! :)
We don't have a television...so very little football for us this year! Which is probably a good thing because we get distracted too easily! However...that doesn't mean I still can't make that amazing cookie pizza. I don't mind that distraction at all!
Football and Fantasy football happen around our house. I'm not a big football fan, but it's relaxing for my husband so we go with it.
My parents never liked football so it wasn't ever very important in our house. The cookie cake looks amazing! They're my favorite(:
Football affects my Sundays because I really can't speak to my husband when he's focused on a game. I make sure to speak to him on Saturdays about anything important! LOL.

The maximum impact football ever has is keeping one or two friends from joining me on a bike ride. I can survive that. Could survive it better with that pizza!
I came for the pizza cookie - what a amazing decadent dessert!
My son got into football last year - his favorite team is the Saints (I think!)
Thanks for the candy porn =o) ha ha
Luckily my husband is the "average dude" and really only pays enough attention to his "team" so he can chat it up at work with the guys.
shoot! and my email is swtchks98 (at) gmail (dot) com
Football only affects my Sundays if I am lucky enough to get a company ticket to a game at the Meadowlands. Go Jets!
Football actually doesn't affect our sunday too much- yet.
We just barely got a tv finally and just got married in May, so we'll see how this goes. . . .hahah
my husband loves to casually plan our Sundays around Patriot games--- of course this is always a shocker to me because I don't know when they come on but of course he does!
Ok first, that cookie pizza is so adorable and making me extra hungry.
Second, I am a part-time football widow and our regular Sunday brunches are cancelled every football season. Not to mention every 'normal' Monday and Thursday night we used to have.

My husband usually watches college football on Saturdays, but sometimes he also watches on Sundays. I usually do something to entertain myself.
amandarwest at gmaildotcom
Since my husband loves football and I really dont it doesnt affect me too much. He watches downstairs and I watch or read upstairs. We do have a Super bowl food party and that's always fun.
We are football fans in my house. We enjoy football, but we pretty much only watch KC Chiefs games (I know you are sending me your sympathy), plus the playoffs and the Super Bowl. My husband isn't overly consumed with football, just a fan like I am. The biggest football fan in our house seems to be our 13-month-old who is greatly enjoying the start of his second football season; can anyone say future quarterback!
I love football and relish a Sunday where I can watch it all day!
Though it is strange for a 20 year old girl to love football, but I do! Football is what shapes my Sundays and Monday [and sometimes thursdays]. I make sure I go to the early church service so I can make it to the first game of the day. My friends and I all gather around my TV and attempt to do homework while we are all really just checking how our fantasy football teams are doing.
I love your blog and I would love love this. Being on a college student's budget I always drool over football party pieces but can never have them. Maybe I will get lucky :]
My email: rink747@yahoo.com
Football affects my weekend in that I dont get anything done! I love everything from watching my brother play on Friday nights, to cheering on my favorite teams on both Saturday and Sunday! Go Bolts!!
Football and Sundays....are you kidding me!? :) The only time of year that we don't agree to Bible Study on Sunday nights AND we throw the diet out the window...Lots of food, lots of yummy yummy food like that cookie pizza! ;)
I can just count on not having my husbands attention. That's okay though because he is a great husband otherwise.
katiemur@gmail.com
I live in Texas so the only thing we have to look forward to in the fall is FOOTBALL. Every Saturday, Sunday, and Monday are football for me! And I'm going home right now to make that cookie cake!!
Sunday afternoon games are perfect nap fodder.
After church, football consumes my Sundays. But not by choice!!! My husband is still learning the skill of sharing the remote :) Plus, he is in a fantasy league for the first time ever this season. "I'll probably spend like 10 minutes on it" has turned into his laptop in his lap all day on Sunday!!
Since I'm newly single, I'll be able to enjoy watching my team, the Chiefs, on Sundays! I've been to a few games, but I'm not like a superfan or anything. I just like to follow how they're doing and watch a game when I can.
Love the cookie pizza - I used to make one similar, but I used a peanut butter cookie base. Gonna have to make that again. Thank you!
It doesn't really effect me unless I"m trying to go downtown in Nashville! Thankfully, there aren't too many football fans in my life that HAVE to watch it every sunday!
Forgot to leave my email addy - sorry!
funredhead@gmail.com
Thank you!
I miss my man on Sundays. He watches all the games because he's in a Fantasy Football league. It's crazy stressful. But, I love him to pieces and I can always take my 3 year old son with me to the mall instead. Thanks for the giveaway
For us Guammie Bears the football games are usually while we are sleeping or earrrrrrly in the morning. So Sunday mornings are up at 4am sometimes to catch a game and we do Mimosa's and breakfast party food. Hm a breakfast pizza might be yummy! But then it's watching highlights and either fist-pumping or pouting for the rest of the day for the men.
smrtcookie83(at)gmail(dot)com
ohhh what a fun give away!
i love entertainingon sundays, but i am a football widow! lol
It only affects my Sundays because I hear my brother yelling haha
That cookie pizza looks delicious.
Love this idea for a cookie pizza, fantastic for tailgating! My husband would definitely fall under the "fan" category. He screams so loud at the tv when things don't go his way that our dog leaves the room and hides in the bathroom! So needless to say it's a little loud at my house!
We switch from watching golf in the afternoon to watching football. :-)
We are a total football family my brothers play both highschool and college football! So of course sunday is spent watching NFL as my younger brothers dream of playing NFL in the future! tracietrump@yahoo.com
Football doesn't affect my sundays to much. I still go to church and I still take care of my 3 kids. Do love watching college football on saturdays though. gallupsharon@yahoo.com
wow - this would elevate the excitement of any football Sunday. it looks awesome.
Football on Sundays? We are usually out participating in sports instead of watching them.
Football on Saturdays is bigger in our house than on Sundays….we are avid Alabama Crimson Tide fans!! But if the Colts are playing on Sunday, I must watch! I love me some Peyton Manning :)
My husband likes football but it isn't a main thing. But we do go to my families house Sunday to eat and be with family and football is the thing there. Always on....always yelling...always lots of fun!
This is definitely the BEST Cookie Pizza I have ever seen!!!!! Super YUM! :-)
Football doesn't do much to my Sundays being a single gal :P I will occasionally watch with my son but we'd rather be outside having fun!
So my question is this. Which of those types is YOUR husband?
I'm so not a football fan. I'll just take the pizza and the superbowl commercials. God that pizza looks good. I might start watching football just so I have an excuse to make it!
Your pizza looks awesome!
My daughter used to make these for her friends for their birthdays and deliver them in pizza boxes(unused).
Football doesn't affect our Sundays too much. We still go to church and if it's a good game(team we like)we might watch it.
I love Cookie Pizzas! I usually make a Sugar cookie with a fruit dip sauce and use fresh fruit as the toppings! Goes over HUGE and people love it!
Football Sundays in my house are hard since Hubs is a Dolphins fan and I am the smart one and am a Patriots fan :) We fight and yell but its all in good fun (mostly)
A. Love this cookie pizza!
B. I guess I'm married to "average dude"...definitely tunes in, but not obsessed. We have no jerseys in out house.
C. I'm a college football fan, but I'll watch NFL. I like a sport that gives me the excuse to eat chips & dip, nachos, chili, and cookie pizza!
We mostly watch college football so it rarely affects our Sunday.
stefanieburns1@yahoo.com
Football doesn't really affect our Sundays. Except for the Super Bowl we use it as an excuse for a party! We are not big football people!
Go Cowboys! Sundays are a little tougher now that we don't live in Texas anymore... We just got NFL Sunday Ticket so we can watch our team!
If the Steelers are on, they take over Sunday....
We are a football crazy family. If a game isn't on, sportscenter or the nfl channel is. my husband is ridiculous about the draft and will watch every day of it, then the preseason and of course regular games. he's also a member of a fantasy football league. football is life in our house. go steelers!!!!
this would rock his world!!!
rebekahskitchen(at)live(dot)com
Football affects my whole weekend...college football on Saturday (Iowa Hawkeyes all the way!!) and NFL on Sunday...love it!
I must move you to the top of my blog list! GO FINS! Ya know they won last weekend because all my nails were painted teal. I'm just sayin.
I get into football season for the Dolphins (the only team I'll watch a game for) and the food. I LOVE having an excuse to eat my dinner @ 2pm and not worry about much else. Not to mention it's okay to consume 1/2 a bag of chips on a football Sunday.
That's a really long answer.
Here in Oklahoma since we have no pro team it is college football country! I do enjoy this time of year however I burn out on it way before thehubs! I love the cookie pizza! It looks like a sugar coma of the best kind!
Yummy! Football means FOOTBALL FOOD (ummm, yeah, just junk) on Sundays around here. And lots of Niners cheers! FUN!

bek@kalwebs.com
I think I could eat that whole cookie pizza! Yum!!! I'm originally from Dallas, so I'm the one sitting in front of the TV for 3 hours every time the Cowboys are playing. At least I can see the TV from the kitchen...
Now that is what I call pizza ;)I like that the marshmallows mimic cheese.
This giveaway is really cute. My Sundays usually consist of keeping tabs on my Fantasy Football and switching through different football games so I try not to miss anything!
Love the idea of a giant cookie pizza. I'd top mine with cream cheese froting and fruit though- yum!
What a generous giveaway, thanks!
Football season provides me with lots of yummy recipes from everyone else who's busy preparing for tailgating and the like...but it doesn't really affect my Sundays as neither the Hubs or I are football fans. Crazy, huh?? I would still love to win this giveaway, though! :-)
Oh, yes please! That looks amazing! I've made cookie pizza before, but not the Cookies and Cups way...I'll definitely be trying this version. The candy porn and NSFD references cracked me up.
So, I have to admit that I am the football lover in this household, and my husband is the football widower August through January.
Thanks for the chance at winning your giveaway!

We love football Sunday- my husband bleeds NY Giants blue - so it's a big deal here. Great giveaway!
Football doesn't affect my household BUT college football DOES go BYU COUGARS sisiliaiongi@msn.com
Sunday football means time with my parents and good nap....bc the Lions tend to always loss!
That cookie pizza looks SO YUMMY! Sundays during football season mean that I am husbandless. And bored, Ha! Not really a football fan ;)
Me and my hubby love all pizza and he loves cookies, so this is a marriage made in heaven. The dessert, I mean, hahaha! In Canada we love the CFL and the Saskatchewan Roughriders!!!
Football impacts my Saturdays more so than Sundays. Go Cowboys!
Luckily it doesn't affect my sundays when I hid the remote but I know if my husband had the choice he would watch it every weekend.
Football is a Saturday thing at my house! Go Sooners!
nsavage@live.com
We LOVE football Sundays in our house!! ...and Saturdays for that matter :) Husker fans on Saturday...Vikings fans on Sunday! Oh and we both play fantasy football...haha! So yeah...its kind of a big deal ;)
We do our football craze on Thursday. Watching my own boy play is the only time I have to devote to football....but I love the snacks that go along with football!
my husband isn't a huge football fan so my sunday's are ok. it's all spring/summer/fall when he's consumed with baseball...
I'll be honest - we don't watch much Sunday football. But, somehow every year, my house turns into this ridiculous crew of people for Superbowl Sunday. And we don't event throw a party. People "just happen to stop by". I'm thinking this year we should just have a party. My house will probably be empty then. Go figure!
nicole_melnick at yahoo dot com
Football affects our Saturdays in a huge, obsessive way. We don't have professional football in Idaho, but we have the next best thing: Boise State! BSU games are sacrosanct at our house. Go Broncos!
My boys would love those plates. Holy cow they are adorable. I'm definitely trying the cookie pizza too. This is a terrific giveaway!
je2kids(at)gmail(dot)com
Your post is hysterical! Football doesn't affect me (thank goodness) because I'm a single Mom. But when i get to work on Monday that's all I hear ALL DAY LONG!!! And then again on Tuesday! So bringing in some great treats (and I can't wait to make your pizza cookie!!!) would get some major points with all the nuts, I mean other people, I work with!

football affects my saturdays more than my sundays b/c i'm a loyal OU fan. sooner born & sooner bred! would love to add these supplies to my tailgating parties, thanks for the giveaway.
My Sundays revolve around football!!!!! We have a solid group of 14 people that meet up at one of the houses and we watch the game, eat food and cheer on the Patriots. Everyone wears their Patriots best and we love yelling and cheering when our Patriots score! We schedule fun games to play before the games but everything on Sunday revolves around that football schedule!
Football truly effects my sunday. It affects the food we eat, our scheduling, and how much I can study lol!!! Love the football loving family and my boyfriend.
cher_theblondeprincess@hotmail.com
Its pretty annoying...I can die one the floor while my husband is watching football, and he won't even blink an eye :( Glad there are others commiserating!Those football plates are adorable!!
The crazy doesn't even begin to describe my husband. He lives, breathes and eats football all year long!
As a single girl, football actually doesn't affect me at all! But after reading your post, for some reason I have become inspired to get into football!!! Nothing crazy, just a game on Sundays. Now the question is, what team to follow???
Football isn't a sunday event in my house. It's a saturday thing. All college football, all the time. The tv is reserved every saturday from now until the torture is over....oops, did I say torture? I meant football professormagoo@comcast.net
YUMMY!!!
Football doesn't affect my Sundays much, other than we argue over who gets to watch their show on the BIG TV.
Why does football always get BIG TV priority? No fair
My Sunday's aren't too impacted by football. My husband is out of town most weekends and my son usually watches with some friends when he watches, but it would be pretty cool to have some of his friends over for a party. Or on one of the rare weekends that hubby is home, have some fam and friends in. It would also be interesting to taste that Shake N Bake Buffalo wing stuff, since I live in Buffalo.
Or maybe I could make them and take them to scrapbooking with me some Sunday when a bunch of us football widows get together. Now that would be fun!
Thanks for the chance to win!
kristie at lashotphotography dot com
I've always been more of a NBA junkie, but I could sit through some football if it meant I get to munch on this! Yum
Our Sundays are planned according to the Cowboys schedule. It may be a little harder this season with a newborn in the house--we'll see :)
Football only affects my Sundays if my extended family is together over the weekend. Otherwise no one in my house cares
how stinkin' cute!!!
You know I LOVE football & i LOVE parties..hope I win!!
J-E-T-S...jets jets jets!!! :)
What a great prize package. I would love to throw a football party. Foot ball is always better when you party!
I wish I could say it only affected Sundays, but it also affects Monday night football, sometimes Thursday's...and always college football on Sat. I try to watch with my husband, but I can only take so much football. I would love to win this prize.
Um, my name is Rachel and I am a football addict! So it doesn't matter if the husband has it on or not- I DO!!! {College football outranks the NFL in this house!}
football doesn't really affect me, i'm more of a baseball and basketball fan. but it is pretty hard to watch anything else on tv!!
i like football. i like my men masculine, and those are some manly men. :)
great pizza!
My husband and I watch football every Sunday with our two girls (2 and 7). We bring out the tablecloth that looks like a football field and the snacks to go with it. GO VIKES!
Oh my! This "pizza" looks awesome!!!
Sunday football games mean I don't get to watch reruns on Bravo during my kids' naps. Tragic, I know. :)
Football doesn't affect my Sunday, but if that's what it takes to get to eat that delicious looking thing then I think I will start watching!!
Football doesn't affect my Sunday, but if that's what it takes to get to eat that delicious looking thing then I think I will start watching!!
Okay, Shelly, you have to know from having boys of your own that ESPN is on 24/7 regardless of the season! Seriously, they will even watch in their sister's room. She get's so mad when she goes in there and finds her TV set to one of the ESPN channels. LOL I don't watch TV so it doesn't bug me. They are actually quiet so I get to sneak off and do my thing.
I've not thought to top my cookie pizza with marshmallows, DUH!
~ingrid
My hubby is a college football fan, so our Sundays aren't really affected by football. Saturdays are a different story though... football all day long!
My Sundays are completely dominated by football. Not because of my husband...but because of me. I can't get enough...we start with ESPN NFL Countdown at 11am, watch the 1pm game and then the 4pm game, watch the highlight show on NBC, then the night game also on NBC. I love it!
One good thing about football Sundays is that I always get my laundry done during football season...I spend the entire day in front of the TV folding laundry!
When my love isn't watching football on Sundays, the he's watching golf instead. So I have learned long ago that if I want to do something with him, to do it on Saturday. In our house, football in not just a Sunday thing anymore...not with Thursday night football and Monday nights too. That cookie pizza looks so yummy. I'm going to have to try this recipe asap.
Your cookie cake is Fantastic!
What a great give-away! Thank you!
I LOVE Football, especially Dallas Cowboys football. Just hoping to not get my heart broken (AGAIN!) this year! Can't be Sunday in the fall/winter without Football!
I promise to think of you when I see the Dolphines play!
Have a Great season!
I've learned to take a nap or have a scrapbooking party for the ladies!
I lose my husband for a few hours on game days. That's when I bake!
I was such a football fan until having kids. Now we just rarely turn on the tv. But, I still love to hear "duh duh duh duuuuuhhh." I miss football! Someday...
Football in my house means we barely see my husband on Sunday, because even though he's primarily a Giants fan, he "loves all footall" (translation: watches every single game that's on that day). It also means I spend half the day in the kitchen making his special wings that need to be deep fried and then take a turn in the oven with a glaze coating, since I can only deep fry 6 at a time. The poor kids just want to watch Thomas the Train. lol *sigh* gotta love football season...
oh and my email is PreciouSteph@aol.com =)
mmmm cookie pizza! It's strange in my house my boyfriend doesn't like football but I do! Go Cardinals!!!!!!
Husband watching football on Sundays means that I'm getting a lot of my knitting projects caught up while I sit with him! :)
I LOVE college football (Fightin' Texas Aggies are my team!), but am just 'eh' about pro-ball... If I were to pick a team I'm a hometown girl and will pull for my Houston Texans.
I love everything about football season! The games, the weather, the food... YAY!
I'm not big into football (I would be if hubby was, but he's not) so we don't watch it. So it doesn't really effect my Sundays.
I love football sundays, it is fall! and I love fall! My husband is a Bears fan, so that is who we root for! Cookie cake looks awesome!
Football is a big deal in our house. I am more a college fan and hubby watches it all!
Can't wait to for the University of Texas vs Texas Teach game that is tonight. :)
It is what we wait for all year long. I am a NY Giants fan living with a Dallas Cowboys fan. It is always interesting. We stay in all day, cook great food and just watch football.
We are fair-weather-friends - if a team is good - we are on board! Woo hoo. Go Team!
We head on over to the bar on the Military Base we live on! We are there from 1pm until the last game on Sunday ends. Good food and a few drinks. This is the only way I get to see my STEELERS play! They don't play much of them on tv in New England (ugh Patriots). At any rate, when my team is on TV, I get have parties at my house that always include chili cheese dip, wings, chips, and good friends!
Thanks for sharing all your info and your blog rocks!

haha. i'm one of the lucky few - it doesn't affect me at all! my hubby hates football
My kind of pizza! That looks great!
My son and husband are big football fans. Lots of yelling at the TV on Sunday. I like to watch on occasion. Anything that gets my family all in one room together is okay with me!
Great giveaway. That easy chicken sounds very yummy:)
Watching football and Fantasy is big in my house on Sundays. My husband has a friend over every Sunday and we hang out and eat. It is fun! GO PATRIOTS!
Although we (meaning my husband) watch football on sundays- we have our big football day on Saturday. This year we got tickets for the whole family for Beaver Football! My hubby's almamater! I like football but LOVE tailgating- so I'll have to try the cookie pizza recipe, yum! joshnleslie@hotmail.com
I love your cookie pizza. Well football affects my Sundays in a way that is unexplainable. I practically lose my husband for an entire day. And maybe, if I could incorporate my baking into his "day of fun," he'd remember we were married : )
carson_cowbell@hotmail.com
That pizza looks heart attack inducingly good :) I'm in India, so it's no football, instead, cricket and soccer almost every single day!!!
Football doesn't affect my Sundays nearly as much as it does my Saturdays, as we are college football people here. But my husband will invite all of his friends over a few times during the season on Sundays just so he has an excuse to ask me to make his favorite tailgating foods.
Great post! My husband is somewhere between fan and the crazy. There have definitely been some bad Sundays when the team doesn't win. That cookie pizza just looks incredible, though. Yummmmmm.
Football isnt a huge part of our lives...but love this recipe!! Perfect for a fall/winter day
oFootbal is what it's all about at my parent's house, so we head over there and get our fix and then go home to our quiet house afterwards!

I love football Sundays! I'm a Pop Warner mom from way back!
well, I live in the state of Alabama, so football does not affect my Sundays as much as it affects my Saturdays. ROLL TIDE ROLL!!
Football...LOVE LOVE LOVE Football, but with 3 young kids who LOVE their sports to, there is little time to catch the games all day on Sundays. :(
We are a football loving family!!! Both my boys play and we love watching it together.
Football is synonymous with Sunday at my house. My husband and I do a fantasy draft with my family (dad, brother, sister-in-law, cousin, and a random friend) and the hubby does another draft as well. I've been watching NFL since I was a kid (go bears!), and it's still the only sport I watch. We usually go over to my dad's on Sundays (he has DirecTV Sunday Ticket and laundry facilities), watch football, talk football, have dinner together, and watch some more football. We both get antsy if we have to miss our respective team's games (I'm a Bears fan all the way, and the hubby is the biggest Patriots fans in Iowa). :)

The rule in our house is that he can watch as much football as he'd like as long as he mutes the volume! Then it doesn't impede on my Sunday if I'm trying to read or something:) somehow my husband agreed to that.....Go Chargers!

Sure football affects my Sundays but not in a negative way! I love to have the games on while I do other things. Being in a confidence pool definitely makes it more enjoyable and so would that pizza cookie. Looks delish! I will be trying that soon.

Football takes up my husband every Sunday!!! All day and on Monday nights!!! But I get to spend all my time baking while he's yelling at the tv :)

We're a huge football family here!I don't have a favorite NFL team but on Saturdays it's the UK Wildcats all the way! Since my husband discovered that his cousin who lives two blocks from us has the NFL channel where you can watch 8 games at one time, we spend our sundays at his house! But, his girlfriend and I usually make dinner. bake, and watch a movie while they're watching all the games so it works out!
Can't say I'm a huge football fan...I feel like the game really starts and stops WAy too many times and I get distracted...maybe that's why there's so many snacks?!? :) I CAN say that I've been dreaming of this cookie pizza since I first glanced at it the other day! YUMM!
I love to cookout on football Sundays with friends! So fun!!
It said the deadline was Tuesday but also gave the date of the 22nd, which is today (Wednesday)...so I'm hoping my comment gets included in the drawing!
Football and Sundays...are totally synonomous in our house. DISH Network and the NFL Ticket....need i say more? The guys are going to LOVE the cookie pizza this Sunday! sorry I'm a minute last with thwe post....I hope I can still get into the running for the giveaway...cynthia29907@gmail.com
