    I'm dumbfounded how there isn't a thread for this yet.

    I'm not predicting anything crazy. I'll say Hawks beat GB 27-17. I'll say the Cheatriots beat the Colts 34- 24.

    I would love for at least 1 upset to happen. That way I don't have to root for the f'n Seahawks.

    Funny - because that is the only team left that I would be happy with winning.
    I can't think of a single thing I like about the other 3, All organizations I have despised for years.

    We don't often get the 2 number 1 seeds in the big one, but I think we get it for 2 years in a row.
    I think Luck and the Colts are probably a year or two too early -- Pats 35 - Colts 24
    I don't know if Rodgers makes it to the end in this game, -- Seattle 31 - Green Bay 13

    Go Pack, go Colts, won't happen but you never know...Seahawks vs Pats would be Brady's 3rd straight Super Bowl loss...

    just put a 13lb turkey on the smoker, and a mini newcastle keg in the beertender...... let the good times roll (especially if it means Brady get more smashed than I will)

    Fuck the Pats. Seriously. I couldn't hate them more. But I am desperate. Betted my last $123 dollar in my account for a 2 game parlay.

    Seattle has to cover -7 and Pats have to cover -6.5

    If Seattle covers the first game, I will be rooting for Pats to cover -6.5 to win $319 plus my own $123.

    Would love to see luck win.
    never hated the Colts. They never seemed like rivals when they were in the east with us. Just that other team in the division.
    Really don't care who wins the other game. I think that is the super bowl winner anyway

    Really dislike the late starts. What am I supposed to do until 3:30? At least they put the better game first

    Nice, we went to a great BBQ place last night in Norwood. I gotta get a smoker.

    And making panko crusted chilean sea bass and sauteed asparagus with a great light Pinot Noir.

    Too much beer last night.

    I hear ya there. I jumped on a few Seattle -6 lines early when it was only around -140. Now it's jacked up to -170 I think. I also did a few parlays of both favorites covering by 6. One of them has the over in the Pro Bowl too. That's another thing. I ALWAYS take the over in the Pro Bowl. Usually the final is around 100 points, and right now the o/u is only 79.

    As a fan of defense I'm excited for the Seahawks game, should be a hell of a game. Don't count out the Colts just yet either, I remember in 2011 when nobody gave us a snowball's chance in hell to beat the Pats at home so anything can happen.

    The storyline would be crazy on a Wilson vs Luck superbowl, passing the torch to the next generation of outstanding Quarterbacks.

    Absolutely agree.
    It is fucking stupid to play a game in Seattle at Noon and then virtually a night game in NE at 6pm.
    When it could be 3pm NE time AND 3pm Seattle time.

    It's championship weekend, the ratings will be there no matter what.

    Might be wrong but I think the times were scheduled awhile ago, NFCCG could have been played in Charlotte for all they knew at the time.

    I do hate it, though.

    Football!

    @MikeGarafolo: Unreal story from @JayGlazer just now: NFL threatening to eject Marshawn Lynch if he wears gold cleats.

    Yep, that's what I'm left with too. Only because of the Pats. If by some miracle the Colts would win I woulda preferred Rodgers to get the Ring. Just don't see the Pack beatin the bitches tho
