I don't believe anybody on the four teams playing this weekend is complaining about the weather. I've talked to someone on every team and it's not about the weather. The weather talk is overrated and is something for the media and fans. The winners of these games get to play in the most important game of their lives. Who cares about the weather!

The only weather condition I'd worry about is wind. If it's exceptionally windy, then passes and kicks will be affected, but that probably won't be a problem. If there's a player on any of these teams thinking about the weather, then they'll choke the game away.
