the feeling is that...

[GoldfishLord]

Tomorrow the Packers will be facing the Patriots to determine who goes to the championship.

In the above sentence there is little difference between "will be facing" and "will face", but if a sports announcer were to say this sentence, the feeling is that we could be watching the game as it happens. There's a kind of dramatic immediacy when we use the future continuous.

Does "feeling" mean "impression" or does it mean "opinion"?

 

[jutfrank]

I wouldn't say either of words are especially close synonyms. If you want a synonym, I suggest 'sense'.

I wouldn't say either of those (two) words are especially close synonyms.

I inserted the words in red. I'm sure jutfrank meant to write something like that.
