jkrdevil Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 If your right and the Super Bowl is Colts-Saints the hype will be through the roof. You'll have Manning going for his first Super Bowl against his home town team which is New Orleans which is bouncing back from Katrina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCBoy Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Hmmm...I sense a somewhat bias in the Pats/Colts game preview I hope your right, it would be a great SB41. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeytonManningRocks Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 The Colts-Pats game is going to be a lot closer than you predicted. I just hope we can pull it out this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assumed he was talking in the same vein as before. I don't speak for democrats, democrats don't speak for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discrim Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 the Saints' run ends in the snow. Memo to Reggie Bush: no pushing in the backfield. Any attempt to push your QB into the endzone WILL be televised just like your first one. And you WILL be caught this time.Man...the prospect of seeing Thomas Jones destroy the Saints defense is way too good not to think about.Bear Down.

NJTank Posted January 21, 2007 Author Share Posted January 21, 2007 Not sure if it changes my opinions I think if Tommie Harris played Id pick the Bears, but the defense is banged up and Rex Grossman is terrible. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Rex Grossman is terribleFalse. Someone's watching too much ESPN. Rex had one of the better performances at quarterback last weekend, if not the best.Dome teams don't win outdoors in late January. Let's hope the trend keeps up. Bear Down, indeed.

wdm1219inpenna Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 First of all, didn't they call for a "blizzard" last Sunday at Chicago? How did that pan out? I am 100% certain that their 70% chance of snow is probably about 10% right.Secondly, as much as I WANT the Colts/Saints to advance, if I had money to put where my keyboard is, I would take Bears/Patriots.History shows that only 1 home team wins in this round generally, and the Saints lack of experience in post-season, coupled with being a dome team playing in cold weather, will hurt them, thus the Bears at home win.Therefore, by default, the Colts must lose since they are the other home team, plus the Patriots are still in Manning's head, and I believe that will show up tomorrow, actually today, now that it's after midnight.If we get Saints/Colts, it would be I believe the first time that TWO domed teams faced off in the Super Bowl. And I dare say it would have to be renamed the PEYTON Bowl (Sean Peyton vs Peyton Manning). I'm half asleep and cranky as you can probably tell, so I'm not 100% sure if Sean Peyton's name is spelled right or not, but just thought it was an interesting twist.Going back to sleep now....Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleujayone Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 I'm calling "Shananagins" on Tank's AFC prediction. It's not that he picked the Colts over the Pats but rather because of how he did. At this point I have no doubt he'd pick anyone over the Pats. He is already well known in these parts for his rather unhealthy hatred for the team and notably Tom Brady. Even in this latest effort his bias shines through like a supernova. It brings into question the validity of any argument he might try to make. This would be like a weather man saying it's going to be sunny day despite the reports possible thunderstorms coming simply because he hates rain. Not exactly a scientific argument.You want the Colts to win? Fine, perhaps they will. But wanting a team to win has little to do with whether or not they actually will. And belittling an opponents' past accomplishments because you have a personal grudge against them isn't a valid argument for why they should lose, either. Is he really a neutral party just trying to make an educated guess OR someone who already wants to see a certain result and does his best to twist the argument to fit his predetermined conclusion? Come to think of it, the NFC prediction isn't exactly taint-free either. Don't feel too bad about it though- I have no doubt many "professionals" are guilty of making predictions with the same type of bias at times. We all have our little faults. Mine's in California.
