Super Bowl Prognosticating Across Blogfrica
Howdy folks! Did you hear the news? The Super Bowl is going on this Sunday. It’s funny that I hadn’t heard anything about it. In more serious news, I reached out to some of my favorite bloggers and media types to ask them a few questions. If you didn’t get an email from me, sorry. I only had so much time. The questions I asked were, 1)What is something, anything that you’d like to see happen in the Super Bowl 2)What is your prediction for the game?[edit:apparently I switched up the order of questions at some point, so some of the answers are flipped but still make sense.] The answers I got back ranged from simple to in depth and were serious, deadpan, facetious and everything in between.
Drew Magary: Saints by 1. Drinking ensues
Josh Zerkle: I like the Saints 31-17. I’d really just like the game to be close going into the fourth quarter. I have a feeling it will be.
Jack Kogod/Unsilent: I’m predicting a win for the Colts. What I’d most like to see is Tom Benson accidentally poking Roger Goodell in the eye with his umbrella.
Dan Levy: I really want to see the game go down to the wire like the last two, but the odds aren’t in favor of that happening three games in a row. That’s not to say the game won’t be close, I just don’t see a tip-toe TD or helmet grab to end this one. I think it would be so great for the Saints to win, but I have a feeling the Colts will. As for what I’d like to see, I’d really like to see Reggie Bush do something bone-headed. And I’m not talking about something like a fumble trying to get more yards, or even a muffed punt like in the NFC title game. I mean like the old Reggie Bush of USC who would randomly lateral a ball in the open field in a National Title game. A ‘big-time players make big-time plays’ type of move. I don’t even care if it works. In fact, it might be cooler if he does try something crazy and pulls it off. But he’s one of the few guys in this game that could really give an OMFG moment, so I hope that happens.
Lenny-Hail Mary Jane: 1) I got the colts. Even though everytime I gone adamantly against the Saints this season they ended up winning and when I picked them they lost. I’m still taking the colts though. 2) I want to see a close game. Everyone is expecting an offensive shootout but I would love to see a game where both the teams score less than 20 points and one of two plays determine the game.
Brandon-ROTU,Gunaxin: 1) I see Peyton Manning throwing for over 300 yards in a narrow Colts loss. I think the Saints will screen pass and dink and/or dunk the Colts D to death. Saints 42, Colts 38. 2) I would like to see Archie Manning pull a Laura Quinn and wear a half Colts/half Saints jersey. (more…)
