Football Follies?

[ARtraveler]

Well...

We got through another ho hum Sunday for football and the teams going to the Superbowl have been determined.

Green Bay/Seahawks: My preferred team was sent "packing." It was an exciting game (mostly near the end). Tied until the Hawks came up with the final TD. My impression was that Green Bay gave the game away several times. They had many opportunities, but were not able to connect. My prediction came true--unfortunately.

Colts/Patriots: One team, unfortunately did not show up. That was way to much of a trounce for a championship game for sure. What happened with the Colts?

Who do I favor in the Superbowl? I guess I will root for the Hawks this go around--if I watch the game at all.

My other favorite team, was sent stampeding like a herd of Broncos. They are getting a new coach--Gary Kubiak. No word on the quarterback situation for next year.

The Packers kind of looked like my Lions yesterday.

I can hope that the Packers and Lions are about to trade places in their success or lack of in the NFC North.

GO LIONS!!!!

The NFC championship game was such a roller coaster ride I think that both Seattle and Green bay fans are still in shock that was the biggest comeback ever in a conference championship game WOW! GO HAWKS!!

RE: Commercials When I was teaching a marketing class, the class was assigned just such a task at Superbowl time. We would then discuss the commercials from a marketing standpoint the next class session. Very practical application and very interesting for the class as a whole.

Did anyone catch the evening news concerning the Patriots/Colts game. There were accusations that the Patriots were using footballs that were underinflated on purpose--giving an advantage to both the quarterback throwing and the receiver catching.

Shades of the cheating scandal from previous years involving taping of the opposing teams locker room.

Any takers?

The most important discussion so far: How many clothes will Danica Patrick NOT be wearing in the Go Daddy commercials...

I always thought the nfl supplied the game balls, and the teams didn't have access to them.
