I wonder how I saw what I saw unless it was a premonition....

(ya right)

nontheless... I'll stick with my first pick

PHILLY
BALTY

Thanks for making the correction tho' - I'd hate to have been responsible for anyone making a pick on my mis-information.

villages07 01-14-2009 04:44 AM

I'll go for the I-95 final...

Baltimore over Pittsburgh

Philly over Arizona


Tough picks this time, any team is capable of winning their game; there is no clearly superior team in this final four.

ijusluvit 01-14-2009 11:11 PM

The clear voice came in a dream: "Pick the Ravens and the Eagles, dummy!"

I thought that was a really good omen and I felt even better about it when I read that V7 picked them too.

But then I saw John N's picks.

I've just gotta go with the Steelers and Cards

ijusluvit 01-14-2009 11:13 PM

John N

I'm not sure I saw your picks here. I think they might have been in that dream too.

TallerTrees 01-16-2009 10:47 AM

Philadelphia over Arizona
Pittsburgh over Baltimore

JohnN 01-16-2009 02:21 PM

coconuts, alex and indy-guy, needing your picks by sunday

I've got the bird teams, cards and ravens

Alex 01-16-2009 06:24 PM

Pick Time
 
John, I was just waiting until I was absolutely sure. Having picked one game right each weekend, I am on a roll....

I am going with Arizona and Pittsburgh.

No dreams, no drugs, no doubts.

Can we do this for March madness too? I am much better with basketball.....

aln 01-17-2009 09:42 AM

Last year we set up a private bracket on YAHOO.

If you've never done it before, it makes all the calculations for points in each round and allows you to see everyone's picks (after tourney start).

I'm sure we'll try it again

Coconuts 01-17-2009 12:17 PM

Steelers and Cardinals

JohnN 01-17-2009 01:36 PM

aln, are you volunteering for the march madness on yahoo?
I don't know how to do that.

aln 01-18-2009 01:33 PM

I should be able to take it on. Did it last year.
If my memory serves me, Yahoo will probably remind me that we did do it last year and will probably prompt me to do it again.

Indy-Guy 01-18-2009 02:34 PM

put met in for Philly and Pitt

JohnN 01-18-2009 09:58 PM

Pitts vs Az - 4 points

l2ridehd is in first 13 points
ijusluvit 2nd with 12 points

10 points for zcaveman, Taller Trees, chuckinca, and Coconuts
9 for MelZ and Alex

the rest of us, well... next year!

chuckinca 01-18-2009 10:35 PM

Cards

JohnN 01-18-2009 10:42 PM

I'm rooting for the Cards, but I think Pitt will win

their defense is incredible and the offense does enough!

Taltarzac 01-19-2009 08:39 AM

Pittsburgh for the Superbowl win.
 
Not that it matters anymore pointwise for me, but I am going with Pittsburgh.

schotzyb 01-19-2009 08:50 AM

2008 NFL Playoff pickem
 
Steelers will be the first team to win 6 Super Bowls!!!!!!!!!!!!

aln 01-19-2009 09:17 AM

I heard this morning that the Steelers are a 6 point favorite.......
Guess I'll go with the CARDS (like you Talt-not that it matters).

They have just been defying the odds since December.

TallerTrees 01-19-2009 11:21 AM

I'm going with Arizona.

I didn't know this story before, but you gotta love Warner after reading this one:

MelZ 01-19-2009 02:09 PM

Gotta go for the underdog

Arizona ends their more than 1/2 century drought and wins the Superbowl

zcaveman 01-19-2009 09:00 PM

NFC all the way
 
Cards over Steelers!!

l2ridehd 01-25-2009 06:21 PM

After lots of careful analysis, shaking the bones, spinning the cat, and throwing a dart blind folded, it comes out that Pittsburg will win. So even though I would like to see Arizona break their losing streak, got to go with the Steelers.

Coconuts 01-25-2009 06:48 PM

Oh dear, oh dear.......Cardinals?

ejp52 01-25-2009 06:52 PM

STEELERS:pepper2::eclipsee_gold_cup:

JohnN 01-27-2009 10:52 AM

alright, I'll go with Arizona, final answer, underdog and everyone should win once in awhile

ijusluvit 01-30-2009 07:59 PM

conversation...

He: "Five Super Bowls already. They own em. Great city and fans - just like my Bills (not!). It's an easy choice."

pause...


She: "OMG! You're an idiot!!!!!!!!"


He: "Yea, I'm takin' Arizona"

JohnN 02-01-2009 10:16 PM

That was an exciting Superbowl even if it often looked more like Pro Wrestling than football.
