I like the Colts to cover, and I like the under. I say Colts win something like 28-17

Colts.

I'm pretty sure Peyton Manning had one of those tubes put in the back of his head, a-la "The Matrix", that imparted to him every bit of football wisdom known in the universe.

I would pay extra money to the NFL Network if they "mic'd" him every game.

Love him!!

Just out of curiosity, I wonder how the league and CBS feel about having two small market teams in the Superbowl? Why do I mention it? Because in past years when the Spurs had been in the NBA Finals all you heard about was how small a market San Antonio was and how the Spurs should not have been in the Championship series.

Well the last time I checked San Antonio was bigger and had a richer GDP than either Nola or Indy. So why no complaints from anybody in the media? This double standard is irritating to me to say the least.

Oh yeah, one more thing. We here in San Antonio are one league payoff away from actually being in the Superbowl instead of New Orleans. If former rotten, crooked commissioner Paul Tagliabue had not intervened and stuck his nose in business matters that had little to do with him, the Saints would be representing San Antonio in the big game next week and not New Orleans.

Yes, fate takes some strange twists sometimes and New Orleans fans you can thank your lucky voodoo dolls that things turned out the way they did for you all.

Well, with the way some disgruntled fans are saying how refs are fixing the playoff games for the NFL you would think they'd actually fix the games to have Cowboys versus Patriots (or Dolphins due to the location this year) in the big game. That would be a huge revenue generator for the league. That's why I don't get why refs would fix the games for smaller market teams to end up in the SB.

There is NO comparison between the NBA and the NFL. The NFL is tiers above the NBA. And San Antonio will never have an NFL team.

Never say never, buzz. If a tiny, little place like New Orleans is allowed to have an NFL team then why not San Antonio?
