Super Bowl favorites
You know, many people picked the Colts to win the Super Bowl this year. I had the Colts over the Cowboys, yuck! BetUs.com has some interesting information about how some of the teams’ odds have fluctuated throughout the year.

During the preseason, every handicapper in America anointed the Indianapolis Colts in their 2011 Superbowl Predictions. It was hard to argue against that, but injuries have killed Manning’s team and the Colts have fallen from 7-to-2 favorites to the middle of the pack. Other early season favorites like the Chargers (8-to-1), Vikings (12-to-1) and Cowboys (12-to-1) have virtually fallen out of the race. The amount of upsets during the 2010 NFL has blown everyone’s Superbowl predictions to smithereens so now is as good a time as any to reevaluate how you feel about who the next Superbowl champion will be.
The Super Bowl predictions for 2010 have changed quite a bit. Personally, if I had to pick a game right now I’d take the Falcons against the Patriots. Both of these squads are playing their top game at the right time. I mean the Pats murdered the Bears in the toughest of conditions in Chicago. The Falcons just keep rolling and most likely will win the NFC South over the Saints (New Orleans will be a wild card for sure). Stay tuned for another exciting NFL finish!
SB Surprise, The Classic RFer, LeBron for 47
Well, who called it? Saints 31 Colts 17. I know I didn’t. What a fantastic three-quarters by the Saints. They feel down early (against Peyton, that’s bad). And after a fourth and goal miss I thought this game was O-V-E-R. But after a completely dominated second quarter and the onside kickoff to lead the second half!? I knew who everyone was routing for at the end. Personally, I’m happy for NO and Mr. Brees. It couldn’t have been capped off any more awkwardly though. A Peyton Manning pick followed by a Reggie Wayne dropped fourth down pass. Huh? STRIKE ONE! (more…)
QB Retires, Old CF is Back, SB Prediction.
Another offseason and another year of the “Will Favre Be Back” headlines destroying sporting news over the country. Do you get sick of it? Yes. Do you want him to retire? Yes. Will he ever win another Super Bowl? No. Favre can never know when to hang it up. He had a great year with the Vikings and an awful season with the Jets the year before. It doesn’t matter if he throws the NFC Championship game-losing pick (twice in three years) or not, he’ll still want to come back. Brett, take a page out of a guy whos numbers you have topped. Elway did it with class. Take a guy whos numbers are no where near yours, Warner; he did it with class. It’s over. End it. Leave. STRIKE ONE! (more…)
