Super Bowl XLVIII Pre-Game Call

[franko]

OK, I don't pay attention to the NFL [though I'm doing so a bit more now that I've been in a pool], but I do watch most of the Super Bowl.

So . . . who will win?

Offense takes you to the championships [and what an O the Broncos have] while defense wins them [and what a D the Seahawks have].

So . . . whatcha think?

I'm saying Denver covers the 2.5 . . . close first half but Manning breaks it open in the second. The Bronco's D will bend but not break [Lynch notwithstanding] and Denver has just too much fire-power. 31-24 final.

Unless, of course, the Seattle D does come up big

[franko]

looks like I shoulda stuck with "defense wins championships".

and once again, this is why I don't bet.

Everything the Seahawks touch turns to GOAL tonight.

22-0 at the half....and the kickoff to start the second half results in a TD run-back.


Bruno Mars and the Chili Peppers made for a tremendous half-time show. That's top-notch entertainment!

Didn't want to see Manning win the big game, but I didn't want to see him get humiliated either.

Don't want to see anyone get hurt, but when Richard Sherman was carted off the field I immediately thought about his post-game rant against the 49ers. There might be something to this karma thing, eh?

Halftime show was pretty good. I find some of Bruno Mars' music to be offensive. Maybe not if I'm 25. He puts on a great stage show, though. Little bit of everything going on. Good to see the Red Hot Chilli Peppers show up with their pants on.

Looking forward to next season.

Cheers.
