It's kickoff all the way. I mean sure, I love presents and eating food until I'm fat. But it only leads up to New Year's Eve, which leads to kickoff. So while it's good, it's really just a stepping stone to kickoff.

i feel that, i actually need to get more than 2-4 hrs of sleep per night, so christmas is definitely a good time for that. getting the best games of the year that i dont have already is also a big plus.

This year... Kickoff.

Re: Survey - Do you look forward to Christmas or Kickoff most?
 

Kickoff because of one reason....

WORK!!!

Right now im working about 30hrs a week, and being a HS student it sucks majorly!!! and i work in a music store that plays X-mas music OVER and OVER and OVER!!! i have heard everything from the Now X-mas, to Jessica simpsons, to Destiny's child, to Jimmy buffet, to reagea (sp), to the manchevista or Trans-Siberian orchestra (sp)(its the orchestra w/ guitars and stuff).... ALL of it x-mas music... over and over and over...

CHRISTMAS MUST PASS QUICKER!!! and to add it all together my b-day is tommrow and i hate having my x-mas next to b-day... (wait said that backwards... oh well)

My solution-have my family give me my christmas presents before i go to kickoff, then have my birthday like a week later, so i might just ask for those early then. I shall call it Birckomas.

I must concur with you. EXCEPT, I don't have a job at all. Most of the christmas music I hear comes from the radio, and most of it I have heard enough of already. It's just evedence that Christmas has gotten a bit too commercialized. Not good.

HOWEVER, I really can't wait for XMAS. Presents take a back seat. Frankly I don't care about them. It's the gatherings I goto that really hold the spirit, along with ACTUAL SINGING with my mom strumming her guitar. Not to mention, I may just pull an all-nighter going to midnight mass this year. :D

Kickoff, totally...

I guess xmas is fun, but even during the xmas season I'm focussed on the upcoming FIRST season.

I certainly don't spend all year preparing for another Christmas!

(JVN wouldn't fit in, in who-ville...)

Christmas is a lot of fun. maybe it would be funner if i had snow here. anywho, i want christmas to get here already so alteast it gets closer to the kickoff. and just like someone said, it feels like, it takes 10 years for the kickoff to come but the season passes by so quickly. :)

There's a difference between Christmas and Kickoff?
"on the 14th day of Christmas.." we get Kickoff!

Re: Survey - Do you look forward to Christmas or Kickoff most?
 

I cant vote becuase theres no BOTH! I cant wait for either the suspence of each is killing me! I'm proabbly going to die just typing this post......................................

Re: Survey - Do you look forward to Christmas or Kickoff most?
 

Most definitely Kickoff!!! I love the suspense and surprise... Christmas has kind of lost that feeling anymore and I can't say that receiving material things weighs highly for me, though I do love giving people presents. Kickoff is sort of like Christmas reincarnated... we get to "open up" one huge present, except without all the wrapping paper to clean up afterwords, and then follow through with a whole 6 weeks of madness and many more weeks of madness that comes with competitions. I can't wait!!!

Re: Survey - Do you look forward to Christmas or Kickoff most?
 

Okay so its that time of the year again. Which is better? Kickoff or Christmas. It is so Kickoff, because the excitement that Kickoff has and the knowledge that you only have 6 weeks to build something that does exactly what it is supposed to do, is so much better than Christmas. Now don't get me wrong but christmas is fun, however i don't spend all the time i have extra getting ready for Christams.

I think I'd look forward to Kickoff more if I were given a machine shop (and machinist, for that matter) for Christmas. It'd relieve a lot of my stress if I had the ability to prototype things in the offseason.

I have to say Christmas, because it means I get to come home from college and see my family again! :D
