Let's hear them, who you think will win, by how much, and why?

GO EAGLES!

Patriots 31 ; Eagles 17 - Not a blowout, but a no-doubter

I'd score the Pats by a touchdown. Philly is going to be less able to stop Corey Dillon then the Pats hardcore team defense will be able to defend the Eagles.

Tho I'm a fan of neither team I'll still watch the game. Hell, just bought a new TV for the game. I imagine I'm not the only one to upgrade prior to Superbowl action. heh

Fandros

No, you're not. I'll go try to find stats somewhere, but the Superbowl ranks right up there with Christmas and tax refunds as "buy a TV day."

AHA!

Super Bowl Impacts Television Sales; Most-Watched TV Event Drives Sales of Big Screens at Best Buy
MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- January means lots of playoff football and creates an increase in demand for television sets to watch the "big game." According to the National Electronic Dealers Association, sales of large screen TVs increase five times during Super Bowl week.

I wasn't allowed to upgrade the TV but was allowed to have a party where I could invite several of my friends. For one day I get to rule something in the house.....the living room!!!

I think it will be a close game and I think if the Eagles are going to have any chance at all the defense is going to have to stop the running game. As much as I want the Eagles to win I think it's too close to call and a Field Goal or less will decide the game.

21-24 (hopefully favoring the Eagles)

i predict chelsea biting the dust and united winning the premiership, you heard it here first.

I wasn't allowed to upgrade the TV but was allowed to have a party where I could invite several of my friends. For one day I get to rule something in the house.....the living room!!!My wife and I have an agreement. I make all the big decisions. She makes all the little decisions. Oh, and she gets to decide what decisions are big and what decisions are little.

Saying that United would win the premiership isn't a prediction, it's a given.

I hate the Pats. That said, I think they will easily deal with the Eagles. TO is going to be back, wow. I wonder how many series it will take before they drop single coverage on him because his gimp ass can barely run.

united always wins...everything

united always wins...everything
it's because of their amazing ticking goalie. (who is american)

Soccer is gay

I agree. Football is good, though.

Where you kick the ball with your foot.

Ala football.

28-17 Patriots

I haven't splurged on a new TV (yet, hopefully I can keep myself from browsing the stores between now and the Superbowl) but a friend of mine got one that takes up half his living room so I'll probably watch the game there.

I agree. Football is good, though.

Where you kick the ball with your foot.

Ala football.

Ah, but in American football, you do kick the ball with your foot!

....occasionally..

I want the Eagles to win, but still give the patriots a 64.327% chance to win the game.

Pat win 28-17.... But not until the third quarter.

My predictions for the Superbowl:

Chili will beat pizza.

Commercials will beat the game.

Though I wish the Eagles would win, I highly doubt it. Patriots have an overall better team from what I've seen, and even with TO back he's not even supposed to be on the field. Someone will knock him over and then he'll be benched again. Also, Brady >McNabb in my opinion. Much better at using all his offense.

I'm calling the patriots by at least one touchdown, but it won't be until near the end of the game.

Bylimet, superbowl commercials rock :p

31-10 Patriots

Dillion: 100+ yards by 3rd Quarter
Brady: 4TD passes, 0 INT 300 yards
Branch: 1 TD, 150 yards
Givens: 1 TD, 100 yards
Vrable: 1 TD

Geez.....no one thinks the Eagles can win?!?!

Any given Sunday boys....any given game......the team who plays the best and wants it the most will win!

My money is on the Pats, and Janet Jackson's breasts.

anyone > tim howard, the guy is useless, roy carrol rocks his socks etc

and for the record, peter smeichel is the Man

another boring super bowl (much like recent monday night football games!!!), where we will wait for the commercials to come on to see if anyone actually made a good one, and every now and then we will be suprised, i doubt i'll even watch it, scooby doo seems more entertaining at this point

anyone > tim howard, the guy is useless, roy carrol rocks his socks etc
he has tourrettes and is funny to watch but soccer is pretty fucking gay

maybe if you watched any other soccer than US loosing to micronesia 20-0 yet again you would learn to appreciate it =/

Oh, oh, owned.

Ill watch the womens soccer (The real champs). If im going to watch a bunch of yard fairies might as well have a set of tits on them.

The fact is, just like you could care less about American Football, most of the US could give two shits about Soccer.

Back on topic:

commercials, beer, hard licks, chicks, and no whiney brits on the field! I can't wait till Sunday.

I'm sorry Ibudin, were you talking to me or strapping on 50 pounds of protection just to play Rugby?

You gonna start a riot and trample 100s of people to death over it Halo?

:D

Yah!

Soccer in the US is the sport played by people not athletic enough for Football or Basketball

Besides. You dont really want the US to ever start caring about the sport. There has to be one sport we dont totally dominate

Hey, start a fucking soccer thread you meatsmokers. We like American football and wanted to talk about it. Now, kindly, get the fuck out of the thread if you're not interested in it.

My guess is the Pats will win by 10 points or more.

What Halo meant to say was, "Yes, a thread all about soccer would be a brilliant idea! Capital!"

Go bash football/soccer in the Sandbox. This is a Super Bowl thread. Dolphins by 10.

Ibudin

He has far too much power.

But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Use it against him!

Mutiny!! You Rogues, You Rascals!!

The "wisdom" for the day is that the Pats are under some pressure for failure to "domainate" in their previous Super Bowls, only winning by field goals. IF the Pats take an early lead, expect them to try to stretch that lead out with some agressive go-for-the-endzone sort of plays.

The spread is still only 7.5 or so, but not many people think the Eagles can do it.

I'm in favor of having a "dynasty" out there. Let the Pats win a couple :)

" I don't want you playing no fooseball. Fooseball is for the devil!"

Pats by 20+

:devil

I predict TO will re-break his leg in the first quarter permanently hobbling himself and thereby sparing america from ever having to hear his whiney pathetic arrogant self obsessed ass again.
Also in a moment of brilliant clarity and vision Mike Tice will bludgeon Randy Moss to death with a cell phone thereby assuring his place in the hall of fame.

Oh. Eagles 27-24 but then again i'm a Seahawks fan so what the hell do i know.

Velvet, how dare you say such things! Terrell is being healed by God! You will bow down before him, or be punted!

Eagles will win...


And more importantly, Arsenal > United any day of the week fuckers. Althought United is getting better with their Ronaldo.

that is of course why united has won both matches vs arsenal this season? dont go elren on us =/

if he goes up to sign another camera i hope the camera man kicks his ass

since i have no idea about NFL and its players..is he really that retarded? signing a camera, what the fuck?

Damn, if he is, I'm going to get him to sign my penis. Then I can put it on ebay and make a fortune!

Halftime and it's 7-7. Booth commentary seemed to suggest Eagles "dominance" right before the Pats got their act together and just marched down the field.

BOTH teams first halves are strictly the results of a pile of errors, penalties, and mistakes on both sides. Whatever team comes out of halftime with their heads screwed on straight wins this one.

Oh, and McCartney should have a penis-revealing wardrobe manfunction any second now.

At least they finally figured out how to get 47 year old housewives to watch the game.

All the comercials thus far have sucked. :(

Commercials sucked. TO didn't get horribly maimed like I hoped.

The only redeeming factor in this is collecting my money from my co-workers in my giant sack with a New England logo on it. :devil

What sort of idiots took the Eagles without 7 and a half?

Eagles covered.

Eagles lost the game for themselves, good game though. TO did amazing considering he was in surgery like 6ish weeks ago. He had 110 yards? My only problem with him is that reporters waste far too much of our time reporting on moronic things like his celebrations(seriously, who cares?) when they should be talking about the actual sport.

I must say though, that was the first time that I actually was able to watch the entire half time show without changing the channel in a long time. He may not be near what he was, but Paul is still a god compared to the drivel they usually put on.

I second that the commercials indeed sucked. At any rate, Bill Belichick is simply an awesome coach.

The half time show this year was a lot better than it has been in a while. I was sad when it ended :( Paul rocks!

bummer for the Eagles :(

It certainly wasn't the "blow out" so many predicted, it was a good game and was close. I think when the Eagles came on the field after that shitty onside kick they had already given up...too rushed and disorganized /sigh there is always next year.

I thought the MC Hammer commercials were funny, the rest sucked and certainly didn't hold up to previous years.

Yeah, that was some piss-poor fourth-quarter clock management. Before AND after the onside attempt. If they hadn't screwed up the clock management BEFORE the onside, they might have just been able to go for field position and try to force a three-and-out.

Obviously they needed their time-outs, but they should have been rushing back to the line of scrimmage EVERY play, calling two or more plays in the huddle, etc... ...a piss poor hurry-up offense.

The Bud Light commerical towards the beginning with the pilot rushing out of the plane was the best one of the night in my opinion
