Who are you rooting for? the Bears or the Colts? Score predictions?

Opening Odds.... Indy favored by 7.

 

I would take those odds as defense wins championships and the Bears have a monster defense.

 

I am just happy the Patriots lost.

 

I am not sure which team I am pulling for yet. I think Manning deserves the ring, but my team is in the NFC and I am tired of everyone saying how bad the NFC sucks.

Even though we don't have much access to American Football here in the UK (or that might just be me with no TV! lol!), I don't mind who wins the Super Bowl as long as its a good game.

 

Since I follow the Steelers (mainly due to my godfather), I will be pinning for the AFC team, so that is the Colts.

 

But I just want a good game after last year's Super Bowl.

When is the game? I have to check if any channels over here are gonna show it. Usually don't watch American Football, but I have to see the Super Bowl. :D

London is going to host a regular season game next year. Not sure who is playing in it though

It is on Sunday Feb 4th at 6:30 PM EST

They are thinking it may be Giants and Miami or at least one of those teams.

And if I can get tickets, I will probably go, but depends on the price.

 

And I will be staying up somehow to see/listen to the Super Bowl

I am thinking that it would be a team with a marquee type player like the Saints but then again I don't know.

 

We'll find out during Super Bowl Weekend who the teams are according to nfl.com.

 

NFL Football Trivia: NFL Europe is a developmental league played during the offseasons. It originated in 1991 under the name The World League. Who won the first World Bowl? Who were the teams?

 

Bonus: What was the score? Who was the MVP?

I have to say, the only thing I am usually interested in about the super bowl is what sort of fabulous snack food will I be getting? And booze?

I also enjoy the commercials. You know I will be posting about these the next day.

hey! Empy! what are you going to feed me to convince me to watch superbowl?

Depends, is it only us? If you want to invite some friends I will get some good snacks or something. We could host a little party.

I'm very pleased that Peyton has finally shaken that damned monkey off his back. Being a fan of John Elway since I started following football in 1989, I naturally root for Peyton now, since he fits that Elway mold better than any other QB in the game now IMO.

 

I'm also glad that the Patriots, Eagles, and Seahawks are not in it, as those are probably the only three teams I actively dislike at the moment.

Why the Eagles?

 

I am a Panthers fan myself, so no worries.

pssht! it's abotu time you got your own darn friends.

Fine, can I pick from your current friends then?

Why the Eagles?

Hmmm. I think it mostly dates back to when the Rams and the Eagles seemed to be meeting in the NFC championship every year and got a real rivalry going. I also am not very fond of Philly sports fans who I think may be the most classless fans in pro sports (I'm thinking of Phillies fans throwing batteries at J.D. Drew here and continuing to boo him and Scott Rolen). It's sort of the same reason for the Seahawks (the former reason that is) now that they are the Rams biggest rivals in the NFC west, even if the 49ers are the 'classic' rivalry. The Patriots I don't like because they have won it too many times, and once, unforgivably, at the expense of the Rams.

My favorite teams btw, are the Rams, Broncos, and Colts. :)

the Rams? really? never would have guessed ;)

My are the Cowboys. I grew in Texas and so you got to love them.

 

Everyone loves the Cowboys. They either love them or love to hate them but there is love.

Like to see the Colts win, so Peyton can get the monkey off his back. And Tony Dungy too. Colts came to Seattle the week of his son's death last year.

 

OK, that didn't make a lot of sense.

 

But, yeah, Colts.

 

P.S. - Also, b/c everytime I think of the Bears I get "Bringing Sexy Back" stuck in my head, except it's "Bringing Rexy Back." And that's not okay.

Ohhh...I'm pulling for the Colts. When I was talking to my brother about it I said "Dungy's Bear Hunt," he thought it was clever.

 

I am surprised we haven't seen a "Super Bowl Shuffle 2" or something like that.

Oh BTW, Segurant,

 

The London Monarchs beat the Barcelona Dragons 21-0.

 

And the MVP was Monarch's Dan Crossman.

 

Thank you wikipedia. :D

Cowboys... pfft.

 

Panthers an here. So is Yveva, she just hasn't owned up to it yet.
