Well seeing as my team are an NFC team (the Bucs or the Sucks or whatever they’re called at the moment!) I usually go down the route of supporting the NFC in the championship game; but I don’t know…always been a great admirer of the Broncos, and Peyton Manning, so I’m going to be gunning for a Broncos win. Any other football fans out there? (this of course automatically excludes Cowboys fans hehe…)

FALCONS to win 2015 SuperBowl!

@CousinStuffy - there’s as much chance of that as the Bucs winning more games than they lose!

I predict that a heavily armoured man in spandex pants will throw a chunk of pig across a field

I want the Seahawks to win because I think Russell Wilson deserves it. He’s a great up and coming player. But you never know, the Broncos are tough.

This game is the only thing that’s made me root for Denver since Elway left.

Has anyone else noticed that the two teams from the two states that have “legalized” marijuana are now going to the SUPER “BOWL”? @-) very interesting.

They’re pretty high in Denver anyway aren’t they? Just realised - of course - the teams are playing for the Super Bong trophy…

Don’t care, haven’t watched a superbowl since the quarterbacks were Lenny Dawson and Fran Tarkington. Pro sports just leave me bored.

I’m taking the Dodgers by 4. I hope the Hawks get it done. Sherman is growing on me more and more everyday.

I predict 1-Nil Millwall over Reading 2/1/14

I predict that I will be in the other room tinkering with my Raspberry Pi while my wife screams at the TV. And no, ‘Raspberry Pi’ is not a euphemism, it’s a small computer

You know what irks me about american football…the name The vast majority of the game players are either throwing the ball with their HANDS or catching the ball with their HANDS or carrying the ball in their HANDS so how the hell can you call it FOOTball. Soccer is the only REAL football because players can only use the ball with their foot hence the name FOOTBALL.

Ahhh, the age old argument

^ whats messed up is that there already was a football, soccer was always called football until you yanks stole the name for your hands game and started calling it soccer. I’ll never understand what americans were thinking when they did this, its the most illogical thing in the history of sports.

As a diehard Patriots fan, have my fingers crossed that the Sea Hawks will beat the Broncos. I was absolutely vexed when the Broncos took our spot in the Superbowl. However, I will admit nobody on the Pats side was on their A game when we played the Broncos in the post-season. My hopes are that Hawks get the rings this year.

Denver Broncos win it by a score of 27 - 17

@9inchnails - there were actually two kinds of football: association football and rugby football. RFU stands for rugby FOOTBALL union. Why on earth is rugby football so-called? Players pass the ball with their HANDS, carry it in their HANDS, throw it with their HANDS, only the fullback usually kicks it. What irks me is age-old British prejudice against American sporting culture that derives from plain ignorance.

No one calls rugby “football”, they call it rugby or “rugby football” but no one ever just calls it football because it isn’t. I going to invent a game that has nothing to do with baskets and call it basketball, then I’m going to call actual basketball boccer. I know your all thinking “Well that’s just plain stupid!” but guess what, that’s exactly what yanks did to football

Well with my British and French friends and family I say “football”— with American friends and family I say “soccer.” I don’t watch “football” or Rugby, so I call them nothing at all

I predict that Bruno Mars will not show us any Tits!

“you yanks stole the name for your hands game”. I like that one - I’m from the West Midlands hehe Oh well, we’ll never see eye-to-eye but there you go…

Seattle all the way we best the broncos 2 times this year one regular season game and a pre season game I like manning but I’m from seattle GO HAWKS!

I predict I will eat a lot of hot wings, drink quite a bit of beer, and watch all those great commercials and halftime show when that weird game thing they show between them is not on.

I think the Seahawks will win it by a score of 43 to 8.

Heh…

oooooouuuuuchhhhh. You kinda know where it’s going when the first play from scrimmage is a safety…

There will be another one next year

i may be mistaken, but the origination of name soccer for the game predates “football”. we can all google it now.

Glad to see the my wishful thinking paid off. Very happy about the Sea Hawks Victory. Next year Pats, next year.

‘The rules of association football were codified in England by the Football Association in 1863 and the name association football was coined to distinguish the game from the other forms of football played at the time, specifically rugby football. The term soccer originated in England, first appearing in the 1880s as an Oxford “-er” abbreviation of the word “association”.’

I knew the hawks had this. but I never expected Denver to go down that hard!
