Superbowl?

[wrxkidid]

So who is gonna win the superbowl boys and girls?

I think the Packers and the Chargers and the Packers are gonna win. Farve needs another ring so he can retire already.

[Kevin M]

Now that Indy's out, I don't see anybody beating the Patriots unfortunately.

[eggeegg]

I'm going for Chargers but pretty sure Pats will take it.

[Pat R.]

In my unbiased opinion Green Bay and Favre are unstoppable.

[sperry]

All the cheese has gone to your head.

[wrxkidid]

I think if its Pats with the Packers, Farve might be able to pull it off.

Hopefully Rivers and LT will take care of the Pats, though I wont deny it would be kinda cool to see an undefeated season.

[Kevin M]

Problem is neither Favre nor LT nor Eli can stop Brady and Co. from scoring at will.

[k-dogg39]

Hopefully Rivers and LT will take care of the Pats, though I wont deny it would be kinda cool to see an undefeated season.

Except that they cheated to be undefeated for the season...:rolleyes:

[wrxkidid]

Im not a Pats fan by any means, but from what i have read what they got caught doing is kinda common practice...they just are the ones that got caught.

[Dean]

I think Green Bay will ruin New England's "Perfect season". The Jaguars should have gotten the job done.

But then again, I know nothing about football. It will probably end up being the Giants beating the Chargers.

One can hardly credit cheating for their undefeated (thus far) season, especially since the only team they did it against were the Jets, who could have been given the Patriots' signals directly and still not beaten them.

Thats like racing a class in autox that your really not in and then at the end of the season saying "well that probably wouldn't have changed anything."

Not really.

[100_Percent_Juice]

Your just mad because the raiders are dead to the world.

[tysonK]

So if the Giants win it all will there be any fans to celebrate?

[Kevin M]

Who?

That would be the half of the country that hates the Patriots.

[sperry]

Who?
That awful team that ruined my baseball stadium who are still like 4000 times better than the 49ers.





:(

[AtomicLabMonkey]

I'm still waiting for the niners to cycle around and get good again. It's been over a decade, it should be anytime now, right?







...right? :|

6 years actually, and there are some very positive signs for next season.

[MikeK]

Paging MikeK... :D

Damn, this trophy is awesome! :)

[Joeyy]

You get a trophy for winning your class?

[MattR]

Quite a concept huh? Maybe we'll have a trophy for you by next season.

[skimonkey30]

yah REAL positive.......

that's what we all said last year and look at what happened

[Kevin M]

yah REAL positive.......

that's what we all said last year and look at what happened

Jim Hostler happened. That, and receivers who can't catch the ball. Martz will at least bring us back to the 2006 level, which would have probably earned us 8 or 9 wins with this year's defense. Improvement to the top 20 offensively will probably earn a playoff spot.

If you want the stock market to go up, you must root for the Giants to win...

Fuck. I hate Patriot fans, so I can't root for them... but I also want the market to continue to decline as I just started up a new IRA. :lol:

[Nick Koan]

So, is a bet on the Giants more or less stupid than my bet on the Rockies? :lol:

[Kevin M]

The NFL.com poll is real clsoe to 50/50 right now... so while I expect the Giants to be able to make a game and maybe win, there's probably too much money on them right now, so the odds might be good for a bet on the PAts.

[k-dogg39]

Fuck. I hate Patriot fans, so I can't root for them...

QFT!!

[tysonK]

Giants by 3.

[sperry]

Pats are going to win.

And even as tired as I am with the recent Boston domination of pro sports, and even as tired I am of NYC vs. Beantown bullshit... I'm looking forwards to the Pats wrapping up a perfect season w/ a SuperBowl win.

I just hope the Yankees and Sox both suck balls next season... just to counter this annoying trend of only 5% of America caring about sports championships 'cause the teams are always from the same damn towns.

[100_Percent_Juice]

I just hope the pats film there loss this sunday so they can learn for next year. :P

Giants by 3.

so far, so good.

[Nick Koan]

put 100 on a giants spread bet. Should have put one straight up too.

[tysonK]

they can still do it!

[tysonK]

Giants by 3.

nice.

[Nick Koan]

fuck yeah. Now I really wish I split my wager with a straight up bet.

[AtomicLabMonkey]

That was an awesome game. Go underdogs.

:liljon:

[JonnydaJibba]

Not really that awesome until the 4th quarter. Spectacular ending though. Fuck those Patriots right in their stupid butts.

[Kevin M]

The whole game was pretty awesome actually, if you're a relatively knowledgeable fan. Seeing New York's D line constantly blow up the Patriots offensive line was not normal, but very welcome. Same with seeing Brady out of synch with everything. His final numbers didn't suck, but they aren't good enough to keep calling Brady the best ever after a game like that in the Super Bowl.

[Dean]

3 quarters of defense, 1/2 a quarter of offense.

Manning's "let go of me" scramble and bomb with helmet catch was F'ing amazing.

[100_Percent_Juice]

Manning's "let go of me" scramble and bomb with helmet catch was F'ing amazing.

Yeah but the amazing part about it was the catch against the helmet, not Manning shaking off a 3 finger shirt grab. I thought that was a great game.

[sperry]

I was bored out of my mind until the 4th Qtr. But I did get a lot of cleaning and painting done on the car's engine bay while waiting for the game to get good... so that's a plus I guess.

[Dean]

Yeah but the amazing part about it was the catch against the helmet, not Manning shaking off a 3 finger shirt grab. I thought that was a great game.I think it was more than 3 fingers, but he was pretty close to surrounded. I agree that the catch was great. As I recall, he actually caught it with two hands, but the defender pulled one away which is when he had it between his hand and the helmet for a bit.

[Nick Koan]

I thought the game was awesome from the start too. And I don't even watch a lot of football.

1st half I watched at Red Rock casino. 3rd quarter I watched at the Cheesecake Factory, and the 4th Quarter I ended up listening to the radio on the car ride to the airport. That was a damn fine forth quarter, and my buddies headrest is a little worse for wear.

[Double Phister]

OMG!!!! you guys are describing the game without prior NFL permission. :)

[AtomicLabMonkey]

I have no real interest in either the Giants or the Patriots, and that was still pretty much the best superbowl I can remember watching. Super close, tense game the whole time, perfect season at stake, back & forth lead changes, a final drive and winning touchdown with only seconds to go.. I don't know what more you could really ask for.

Except maybe your team of choice being the one doing the winning. :D

[JonnydaJibba]

How much of a poor sport is Belicheck? I can't believe that.

[100_Percent_Juice]

I loved how everyone ran out onto the field with 1 second left, and then they had everyone get off so they could run off the second.
gey

[tysonK]

It was a good game.

w3rd.

[Nick Koan]

OMG!!!! you guys are describing the game without prior NFL permission. :)

Its cool. I've got implied oral consent to describe the game.

[Kevin M]

Best burn of the night last night:

Some chick: Wait, they are showing House on Sundays now?
My Roommate: No, its just a Superbowl special. Tom Brady is going to be on it.
Some chick: Really? That's awesome, I can't wait to watch it.
My Roommate: Yeah, they've got to figure out why he keeps choking.
Me: :lol:

some chick - ttiwop

I had to.

Apparently casinos took a record loss on the Superbowl. $2.57 Million, and is only the second time that Nevada casinos have taken a loss since they started counting in 1992.

Yeah they will probably tone down the sportsbook and invest in machines.

*google finance IGT

I wonder if they are a good company?

Their internet bill is dragging the company down.

Luckily they save money by buying the internet in bulk.

[wrxkidid]

That was the most boring game to watch up until the last half of the 4th quarter. I slept through the whole thing partially from bordom and partially on account of the damn flu.

I prefer offensive games to defensive ones unless there are so absolutely ridiculous hits which I didnt hear of to many.
