Super Bowl 44 Preview
I’ve been putting off writing this post. As I tweeted to Tweety Monster the other day:
I have 4 days to convince myself the Saints can win & write about it
Time’s up.
And my heart says Saints.
But my head…my head says Colts.
There is no “owed” in football. Just ask Eagles fans.
And the Saints a great story this season, but you don’t always get the storybook ending. Just ask Jeff Garcia about the 2006 season. Or Jaws about 1980.
2009 Conference Championships Recap
Colts over Jets.
Well, yes. Philly.com did a fun “10 things about the…” for each of the games. I still think that the thing that was the most amazing about this game was that the Jets managed to hang in there for the first half. Hell, they were leading at halftime. Of course, they didn’t score another point. But still, rookie QB? Not bad.
2009 Conference Championships Picks
Saints/Vikings – Everyone’s all “Brett Favre’s got the experience” and “Jared Allen’s a monster” and “Adrian Peterson’s occasionally able to hang on to the ball” and whatnot. But they’re playing the NFC Championship Game in the Superdome for the first time EVER. And the Saints have in some cases almost single-handedly been holding Crescent City together since Hurricane Katrina. And they are NOT going to let their fans down now.
To quote my friend Joanne:
2009 Divisional Weekend Recap
Damn, it hurts not being able to write about the Eagles this weekend.
So another 4 games – another 3 dull blow outs.
Well, that’s not *strictly* true.
2009 Divisional Weekend Preview
It’s hard to be as excited about the games now that we’re out of it. On the other hand, I’ll experience far fewer yelling-induced headaches this weekend. So that’s good. Anyway, on to the picks….
Ravens/Colts – I think the Ravens left it all on field last week. And it was totally worth it. But the Peytonator takes no prisoners. Well, until the Colts play the Chargers. But that’s not happening this week, so, much as I wish it was otherwise, I think the Colts are going to win this one.
