Watching Payton Manning is like watching Antiques Roadshow. Which really is too bad because he has had such a brilliant career.

I can't believe the Kitty Kats are favored over the Cardinals, even if the
game is in their house. But since the NFL refs are such homers I guess
Vegas figures that into their odds. I guess I will too.
I was gonna take the Steelers but without Bell I think I'm going with the Ravens.
The Bengals have the proverbial two chances.
Lions will give the Boys a hard time but the Boys have the better running game
and the better QB. They're also at home.

Larry Fitzgerald deserves to win a Superbowl before he retires,
maybe he'll end up with the Patriots...

I posted this last night on the FNPWDT, but this is a far better place.
I was drinking at the time.
Kudos to the Pac 12 Conference, which has the best record of any conference in bowl games this winter.
Only two Pac 12 teams have lost a bowl game this winter: Arizona & Washington.
And of course mighty Oregon knocked off the reigning national champ, Florida State and it looks like they will rip Ohio State a new one for the National Championship!
Woohoho to the Pac 12 & Oregon!
sluurp.
and of course lowly Boise State was one of the only two teams to beat a Pack 12 team in a bowl game.
and of course, the one they beat-----Arizona, was the only team this year that beat mighty Oregon.
Go Oregon.
sluuuup.
How bout them BSU Broncos?
By the way!
I drink to the SEC having one of the worst bowl-game records of Power-Five conferences.
FUK those SEC puffed-upped-redneck-uppity-Dooedes & the Alabama they rode in on!

Fritz, I have said for a long time those Cracker sckools are such a joke. First, their admission
standards are pathetic. Second they shamelessly pad their schedules with week after week of
The Sisters of Mercy and East Southern Vocational College of Major College Wannabes.
There were some great bowl games, with the notable exception of Okie State/Washington.
OK, back to my Green Flash Brewery Double Stout and the Steelers/Ravens. For the record
I think John Harbaugh is the far superior coach in the family. Sadly, it is Al Michaels and
Chris Collinsworth so the Mute will be on. They should change their names to Belabor The
Obvious and Beat A Dead Horse.

Reilly! You are preaching to the choir about the "red-neck wonder"----the now mostly-defeated and unlamented, once mighty SEC.
Here's what ESPN had to say on the subject today:
Remember the SEC West? It was the conference that a handful of people, including myself, were enamored with for so long. But after Alabama's 42-35 loss to Ohio State in the Allstate Sugar Bowl, which officially knocked the SEC out of the national title hunt, the SEC West dropped to 2-5 in bowl season.
and more---- http://espn.go.com/blog/sec/post/_/id/96259/the-sec-west-fails-to-live-up-to-the-hype

I'll pick the Patriots over the Ravens
Broncos over the Colts
Seahawks over Panthers
Packers over Cowboys ( this match-up of all the 4 is the one with the most potential of going either way)

I'm afraid that I agree although I'm hoping the Colts win. The Broncos' D
is superior to the Colts' so that's where my money will be. On paper the
Packers/Boys looks good but those Tejas pussies will not fare well on the
Frozen Tundra.

It has to be Brady against Manning in the AFC finals.
Wilson against Rodgers in the NFC.
Long term prediction: Broncos and Seahawks in Super Bowl . If not then Patriots and Seahawks.
Seattle could go all the way again.
But I hope it's Denver. I'm a Manning fan and don't see him playing many more years and so I'd like to see him get another Championship.

Ain't gonna happen, bro. The Broncos can't win in Foxborough; Manning is
washed up. Just give the damn trophy to the Seahawks now already! ;-)

I want Manning to win another ring.. but I suspect it will be Brady this year.

Well now , Brady is no hot wad of gumbo in the longevity department either. The Patriots have not impressed me this year . Despite their offensive line being in good shape , their overall play has been sketchy and inconsistent. Not the overwhelmers of yesteryear.
If it's the Patriots and Seahawks in the SuperBowl I'm a-pickin Seattle.
Ol' Brady will have huge problems with their pass defense.

Brady may be on the downhill side but he is still more mobile than Manning
and can certainly take a hit better. While I haven't seen too much of the
Pats from what I've seen their D has improved and Belichek is not to be
under-estimated. It doesn't really matter though, does it? The Hawks are
peaking and Pete Carroll is at least the equal of Big Bill tactically and I
suspect he is a far better motivator, not that pros should need motivating,
but we're not talking about Cal Tech educated Navy Seals.
