Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

I don't really care for the patriots but it's in my blood to never root for a rival team in the NFC East. just like I never draft anyone from those teams for fantasy football because I don't EVER want to have to hope for any of their players to do well.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

Can't root for the Giants, go Pats.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

I couldn't make up my mind until tonight. I figure I'll pull for the pats. I don't like either QB, though. Despite our game against the pats, I like belichick. If I were a player, I'd want to play for him more so than any other coach in the league. Cowher and Fisher are also high on my list of coaches I'd love to play for if i were a player.

All digression aside, when I compare the two teams, I dislike Rodney Harrison, Tom Brady, Randy Moss, and the overall arrogance of the Pats as a team. I do, however like the Tom Brady story as compared to the Eli story: Brady, being a sixth round pick and a backup people were wary of, becoming labeled the GOAT this early in his career. Eli, being the first overall pick that got his pro football family involved in his pouting session refusing to be drafted by the chargers, and he never lived up to the hype coming out of college, and is deficient in leadership qualities, which I like in a QB. He'll never be as good as his older brother, and I really don't want to hear about how great he is because he won a superbowl. Trent Dilfer (who i like a lot) won a superbowl, too.

I also can't stand Shockey, Plax, and Strahan. I'm completely indifferent toward coughlin, but wouldn't want to ever play for him. Then the giants also have the division rivalry thing going on in my head, so I gotta go with the pats.

I know I'm rambling and my opinion doesn't mean anything, but you asked for it, so there it is....

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

Well I just cant bring myself to cheer for the pats. I just cant stand that team, undefeated season means nothing to me because its the pats doing it. And I havent like the pats ever, so its not just because of this year. So Im convincing myself to root for the 'NFC' to win.

Anyone else watching Super Bowl XX on NFL Network? Crazy to see how far the Patriots have come as an organization since then.

Still can't believe Perry was given the ball over Walter Payton

Yeah that was pure crap wasn't it?

I think I remember hearing Ditka say he regrets doing that now.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

I wished just this once that there were ties for this year only.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

Who wants to root for a team with with a sourpuss QB? I've never seen Eli Manning come off the field with a smile on his face. I probably will watch the game and hope that both teams do poorly, and the quarterback gets blamed for all the mistakes. The Redskins are better than the Giants, and yes, I am a sore loser.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

I don't know how anyone outside of Boston could root for the Patriots. They have a classless coach who is a total a$$ hole. I honestly believe he brainwashes that team into believing they are underdogs, when they are the New York Yankees of football. He totally ran up the score on the Redskins, and to the people who said that the Redskins needed to stop acting like little girls, well Belichik has been a pouting like a little b***h every since he GOT CAUGHT CHEATING. The league should have suspended him and they should have not allowed him to be up for coach of the year. I just hope karma catches up to them sometime, because they have been extremely lucky on a lot of things this year (crappy AFC east teams, getting Randy Moss for cheap, getting off easy for the cheating, and not having one of their players hurt while leaving them on to run up the score).

Well, I'll be rooting for the Giants...if I decide to watch the SB. I mean, I don't watch the World Series when the Yankees play, so why watch fate give the Patriots yet another Superbowl.

I must say, I think the Patriots should break the two biggest sports jinxs, the entire team should be on the cover of Sports Illustrated, and Brady should be in the next Madden cover. I would bet money that nothing would happen to them.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

I gotta stick with the NFC, and more importantly the NFC East.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

Patriots have already won 3 of the last 5 Super Bowls. Going undefeated would only make their ego bigger. Not to mention Boston Celtics are currently the best team in the NBA and the Red Sox won the world series again. This city does not need anymore material to gloat about. I'm sorry but as much as I hate New York, New England/Boston is getting really obnoxious.

Absolutely! Pure, utter bullcrap.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

Pats haven't slaughtered anyone in their 3 wins, all by 3 points. IF I was betting I would of bet on the NYG with the 14 points. I think the Pats will win though.
Im only rooting for a close game and good $3mil+ commercials.

Re: Super Bowl: who will you be rooting for?
 

[quote=Mattyk72;410455]I must say I'm really torn now. A few weeks ago I would have said anybody but New England, but now I'm finding it really hard to get behind NY since they are a division rival. I think I might be leaning towards NE now. Maybe if I didn't live in NY I would feel different.

Im with you Matty, I live in Jersey and already at the gym at lunch people are walking up to me and saying 'super bowl' in my ear and other annoying stuff. work will suck if i have to listen to happy giants fans
