Are You Ready For Football - Super Bowl

[Drake Tungsten]

I really didn't give a crap about this Super Bowl. Then I found out that He Hate Me is playing for the Panthers. Now, I will be glued to the set every time the special teams are on the field...

Go Panthers! XFL forever!

For what it's worth, I actually think the Panther's offensive game is better than the Colts, simply because it is more balanced.

Plus, Jake Delhomme doesn't seem like a CHOKER.

the colts offense is pretty damn well balanced. they ran 32 times against the chiefs and passed 30.

I love how ignorant morons like Sava consider Manning a 'choker' . I mean it is like they want it both ways. They say it is impossible to win in NE in the playoffs, but then say Manning is choker when he doesn't win. I wonder if these same people would say that McNabb is a choker (can't win the big game), McNair is a choker, etc.

Anyway, I soooo was right on saying watch out for the Pathers because they look like the 2000 Baltimore Ravens!

there defense isn't nearly as good. but if u mean just run+defense then ok

Jeeze, this week's games were downright boring, with a touch of ridiculous ineptness. Superbowl is gonna suck.

Give Peyton the same D and I'd see Manning already winning more than a few Superbowls.

Complement Tom Brady with guys like Marvin Harrison and Edgerrin James, and watch him rack up the yards.

I'm not thinking either QB is better. I have a lot of respect for both. Peyton Manning was always an example for me because of his great technique. Tom Brady has come a long way from being a sixth round pick to being the "winningest" starting QB in the league today.

this has been my favorite playoffs since 99.

Yeah, I meant the 'formula' of running and defense.

Complement Tom Brady with guys like Marvin Harrison and Edgerrin James, and watch him rack up the yards.

Edge and the running attack was basically on par with the Pats. Brady probably would have more yards with Harrison, but not nearly as good as Manning, IMO. Manning has always been a wonderful QB (from his time in college on) especially in intelligence and mechanics.

Funny that last week everyone was falling all over themselves saying how great the playoffs were where every game was close and competitive and now... parity sucks..

this has been my favorite playoffs since 99.

This has been a great playoffs, I totally agree. Good stories and some close, tense games throughout.

The Superbowl should be a great game. Neither team plays a 'blow-out' style of football.

my friend jon said this superbowl sucks because you dont care about the players on either team...

of course i find that to be the beauty of this one

Are you dagging me? Oh no, they didn't put up 75 points WHAT A BORING GAME! Every team (with the exception of the Eagles) played masterfully, and just because there weren't 50 million points or crazyass plays doesn't mean the games weren't interesting.

The Super Bowl is going to be awesome. I'd love to see Jake Delhomme win.

The Super Bowl is gonna be great because of the super bowl party, the commercials, the food, but not the teams.

There just doesn't seem to be the "win one for Elway" or "Manning get's his shot" or "Farve's attempt to leave a winner" type of storylines this year.

I'll be glad when media week is over and the game has begun. Every year the Supre Bowl get's overhyped, and with not many interesting stories to hype, it makes it even worse.

To the extent I bothing watching, I watch to see the actual GAME. What is it with the "storyline" bull****?

Sorry, badams, the media obsession with all manner of story lines irritates the hell out of me. Every time they do a "personal interest" story, I wanna puke. Just show me the ****ing game.

I agree. You know people say they want teams to play as a TEAM, but they are lying. They just want superstars and they don't give a damn about playing as a team.

You got two good teams here, and it should be a great defensive battle.

I'm sure one of the players will have a sick child, Arrian. Then we'll all get exposed to soft-focused crap like

"On the field, Al Gator is a playmaker, the one man everybody on his team looks up to change the direction of the game. Off the field, however, this 300-pound lineman can only look on helplessly at his sick little girl."

cut to Al Gator

"I have never been more frightened in my life. My little girl means everything to me and to think that this could happen to her, well it makes the money and the fame look like nothing."

cut to announcer

"Many children get colds, especially during the winter as they spend the majority of their time indoors. But Katie Gator is different: the teams unofficial mascot, a little girl beloved by all. Her torment is the teams torment..."

cut to Al's teammate

"I was there when it happened. We were having a dinner to celebrate our conference title when all of a sudden Katie just leaned over and blew chunks. I think it was the hot dogs."

cut to Al Gator

"I've seen her sick before, but vomiting? No way man, not my little girl! But it was true: she was sick and all my fame, money, and football prowess couldn't do a thing to help her. Do you know how impote... uh, helpless that makes a man feel?"

cut to announcer

"It looks like little Katie Gator will probably make it through this dark chapter of her life. Al credits her will to live and his faith in God in pulling her through..."

cut to Al

"When my wife was giving her the Pepto-Bismol I kept praying 'please God, don't let this f*** up my Super Bowl. Please God, why does this s*** always happen to me?' Looks like God heard my prayers as Katie is now doing much better."

cut to announcer

"The team is using Katies inspiring story of triumphing over adversity as a means to give them that special emotional edge it takes to make them champions. Back to you, Al."
