The season opener of the NFL season between the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles put die hard fans in a tough position on Thursday night, after a weather delay put the action on pause for the second time in less than a half hour when many fans had work waiting for them the next morning.

This lead to the game dominating the trends because fans had to decide between responsibility and a game with epic dramatic angles..
