I'll be wearing a dark blue sweater with hints of green and silver on SBS if that gives you any clue of who I'd like to see win.

Is it the same team you are pulling for?

What is that supposed to mean?

Clearly you don't remember the "rooting for, pulling for" discussion.

Or a TD w/ PATs + 4 FGs.

True.

Or two TDs with 2 point conversions + 1 FG. And there are some other possible combos too.

Wouldn't be much reason for two 2-point conversion attempts in a game with that final score, though.

I was being flippant.

The football adages certainly are flying around on ESPN. "Defense beats Offense", "A great offense starts with a solid defense", "It could come down to special teams", "The weather could be a factor", "They have to protect the quarterback", "You need to create big plays", etc. Great input guys.

Everyone, at least in my rabid football betting group, seems to think it won't be worth watching and that the Broncos will crush the Seahawks. Hate to say it, but they're probably right.

I'm rooting for the Seahawks, and pulling for them to win the Super Bowl.

[Omerta]

I love the Madden-ish generic breakdowns in sports commentary.

"You know if the blue team has more points than the red team when the clock reads 0:00 after the 4th quarter, they have a really good shot at winning this game."

[Stark]

This is the 7th time the Broncos have been to the Super Bowl and they've won twice before. This is the Seahawks 2nd time in the Super Bowl and we lost the first time. Seattle needs this!

Everyone remember when the Seahawks got some bad calls against the Steelers back in 2006.. That was Jeromre Bettis' last year I believe..
