Who is going to the superbowl?

who do you guys think will be going to the big game this year?

Bears Pats

To me the superbowl "game" is pats vs colts, that's going to be more interesting to watch. D I am going going for the saint and pats, but I bet it will be the bears vs pats. Who knows though, I mean the colts could beat the patriots.

like when UM and OSU played and it was the "real championship game" Then they both get their asses kicked in the the bowl's?

Just because the AFC dominated over the NFC during the regular season doesn't mean that we won't have a competitive super bowl.

That's bullshit like I said i'll take the winner of the NFC championship against the winner of the AFC championship to lose by no more than 3 points in the super bowl.

Back in October I said that if the Bears and Colts were to play one another, I'd root for the Bears. Looks like there is a chance that could happen. ) But today, I'm rooting for both.

I'm wearing my Colts tshirt underneath my Bears tshirt. D

Judging by the way this Saints game is going right now, the Bears are there. I think the Colts are better than the Pats just because Peyton Manning is bound to have a good playoff game one of these days. Really wish the Saints were in it though. Reggie Bush is just exciting as heck to watch if that 88 yard TD in the third quarter didn't show you that.

god I hate the bears.

bear down chicago bears

this sucks - the saints had them at the beginning of the third quarter, they just couldn't pull ahead

i hate that stupid pud grossman with a passion and although he learned how to throw on that one drive, he made so many mistakes (throwing off his back foot, missing wide open receivers) the bears won in spite of him (not because of him).

there is absolutely nothing i like about chicago and i hope the cubs go another 50 years without winning a world series now. i hate that asswipe jim belushi too.

make the world a better place, punch a bears fan in the face

i'll be rooting for the afc (even if i have to root for brady).

-dan

I'll be rooting AFC as well, but you can't deny the Bears defense. I agree Grossman will be the downfall of the team, but besides him they have a great team (OL, RB, WR, and basically the whole defense).

I had Bears VS Pats going into today, looks like I got the Bears right, and the Pats are doing pretty damn good as of right now(half time).

O yeah... Beautiful... Colts over Bears in the Super Bowl... Easy...

I think the Indy refs need to learn the definition of pass interference. How can they call pass interference against Hobbs when he wasn't touching the reciever(but was face guarding) but not call it when Bethea wasn't even playing the ball(face guarding) and made physical contact(grabbed his arm) with Grahm(followed by the Gostkowski 43 yarder). This amongst other calls. But hey, atleast Tyler got to see a hell of a game, and now I look like an ass for my half time post.

I mean, Indy played a good game, both sides of the ball, and the Patriots defense blew it, but there were more then a couple of questionable calls(or not calls) by the referees.

I don't know about the teams, but i'm going to be there lol

I may go to!

Looks like Pats blew their 18 point lead.

Colts vs. Bears in Super Bowl XLI (41).

Final ==> Colts 38 Pats 34


roll

The Colts were hacking!

GO Colts!!!

I like how before the game ended, there were only 3 people that voted for Bears VS Colts, and now there are 8.

That basically describes half the people at Purdue, they bandwagon the winning team. It'll be shocking to see how now they have to actually make a decision to chose a team to root for.

I'm not even going to watch the SuperBowl.

Ya, after that game, I don't really want to watch it either, but I would like to see Manning get a ring(just so I don't have to feel bad for him).

EDIT Now 9 people have voted.

I agree Manning deserves a ring, but I don't want to see the Colts win because I hate every Colts fan.

Sorry JJJ, maybe Brady will win next year. Then again, maybe not. Colts have won the last 3 meetings with the Patriots I think.

I bet the colts and bears go

Sure, kick us while we're down cry Just remember, 3 rings mutha fucka!

Just remember, past is past mutha fucka!

I'd like to change my vote to Bears vs. Colts.

maybe we should change this thread to who is going to win the superbowl


-colts

Wow, how intelligent. roll



Anyway, looks like I got my wish Bears vs. Colts! The husband and I were down in Indy at a friends place watching the Colts game, and then afterwards, we walked the three blocks from their apartment to the RCA dome and checked out the crowds. At the circle, cars were running over an Urlacher jersey, lol.

I can't help it, I love both teams and I'm excited because I'll be happy no matter what!

I'm at Pats fan stuck at Purdue, a Colts vs Bears Superbowl is my worst nightmare. At least after the SuperBowl I'll have one of the team's fans off my back.

Bears fans were being pretty arrogant here, so I would say most Bears fans should be punched P

I can easily find out where you live. How about I punch YOU? shock








lol

JJJ, just remember this was supposed to be an off year for us =S. We lost 3-4 good players in the off season and a few to injuries. We positioned our selves for 2 first round draft picks this year, though.

when people say 'us' and 'we' when referring to the sports teams they like, as though they put on a uniform and play a position - that's another group we need to make the world a better place out of.

and no - rooting for them or considering yourself a 'die hard' fan doesn't mean you can say 'us' and 'we'.

-dan

So you are saying the 12th man doesn't affect how teams play? Fans, through the purchase of tickets and memorabilia provide the teams with a huge chunk of money, which they use to better their teams.

What you are trying to argue is equivalent to a person trying to argue that a civilian plays no role in the US government. I see where you're coming from, because in both cases, neither have a DIRECT impact, but to say they don't effect it all is just stupid.

i'm not saying that fans don't have an impact - i'm saying they shouldn't use "us" and "we", because they aren't part of the team.

-dan

Well, in Green Bay they technically could, because I believe each taxpaying citizen owns some sort of share in the team.

I use "we" and "us" pretty often in referring to the Lions, but I think that's pretty common. "We've got a decent shot next year", or "I imagine the top guys in the draft are cringing at the thought of having to play for us". No shame in feeling like you're a part of your favorite team.

I'll be rooting for the Bears - for two reasons. One, I'd love to see a team from the NFC North (except for the Packers) win it all. Two, I just hate Peyton Manning.

I like the Bears to win it all )

Whats your problem with the Packers?

What's your problem with Peyton Manning? He is classy and humble.

Maybe you are just jealous the Lions can't get a decent quarterback roll

Speaking of where I am, I'm pretty sure I saw your husband/you driving at a stoplight by the Walmart north of campus about a month ago. Do you have a silver Hyundai/Honda with a bumper sticker of how dogs or something take naps and people put them to sleep?

Exactly, and that's why I root for the Patriots in the playoffs?

I hate him because in Madden 07 Superstar mode, when my WR was on the Colts, Peyton would spend almost the entire play clock audibling on every down. I don't have anything against him personally, I just carry it over from the video game.

I hate the Packers because they're the Lions' main rival. I lived in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for 6 years, which was pretty split between Lions and Packers fans.. pretty much everyone up there hates the opposing team with a passion.

Oh yeah, I don't know how many times he blew a chance to win the game, by spending the last two minutes running 5 plays. You can only handle that so many times.

I love the realism of superstar mode, by you only being able to do so much for your team... but if it were realistic, Peyton would have been able to do a much better job at quicker, better audibles.

Yeah, Superstar mode was so realistic that they never handed me the ball... (

Either that or I didn't know what the hell I was doing.

Nope! That wasn't us. We have a 2005 Mazda6, black, sport package, and a '99 pale green four-door Ford Escort. And, we live on the Lafayette side and are rarely on the West side except for work.

It wouldn't be odd to see us at the Union during the week. I generally take a coffee break in the morning..gotta have my overly-expensive Starbucks drink. Sometimes we get lunch there.

Tell me your husband is a gentleman and lets you drive the new car...

I'm not comfortable driving it...yet. We haven't had a lot of time for me to get used to driving a stick-shift. So, it's not that he doesn't "let" me, it's that I don't feel comfortable doing so.

We take the new car most places anyway, lol.

Very true. The first time I played the Colts in my Franchise he was calling hot routes, audibling, faking the snap, and putting guys in motion on every play. Always ran the play clock down to 1 or 2. I was screaming "just snap the fucking ball!"

Damn, I thought I had it too. I guess there's someone else with a bright red beard. shrug I'm always around the engineering mall, yesterday was my first time in the Union in long time only because I needed something for a class in the copyroom.
