Now this is football weather

Watching the highlites of today's games during half time of the Broncos/Titans game, they showed the Philly/Detroit game and it was a blizzard.

One of the talking heads mentioned that "this was football weather."

I'm reminded of the Monday night game between the Broncos and Packers back in 1984. There are many other games where the weather has played a "role" in games, like the "ice bowl" of '67.

What would you call "football weather" for BOTH playing and spectating?
Late summer/early fall?
Fall-ish type weather?
Sub-zero temps and snow like we're seeing now?

Football weather? That's what big screen TVs and gas logs in the fireplace are for - so you don't have to put up with that crap. The pause button on the DVR takes care of everything else.

But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.
