So far luck has been on my side and many an underdog has come through for me. Have picked 5 against the point spread and won with them. But for the final, being as I grew up in NH and have followed the Pats since way way back, got to go with them. So for the Super Bowl it's the New England Patriots all the way.

Thanks for considering me "Respectable". Bret and Peyton both had bad days but, both are incredible Quarterbacks.

The Giants have been playing great and I take my hat off to Eli and Plaxico but, I do not believe that they will beat the Patriots.

In the Super Bowl - New England 34
New york 20

GO JETS :dontknow: :bigthumbsup: :#1:

HELP!!!!! Just made a horrible error. We decided to come to the Villages in a couple weeks to look at some homes we are checking out to buy. Made the plane and hotel reservations. And then was reminded it was Super Bowl Weekend and we will be there Sunday night. What is the best place close by where we can watch the game?

If you have 9 points or less (like me) then don't quit your day job because you've chosen less than 50%.

[b]17 points - I2ridehd - Our leader
13 points - Muncle, DickY, zcaveman - still in the hunt
Well, I really hate to go against the AFL, even Boston, but the only way I can tie for the win is to go opposite our distinguished leader. So, I picking the New Jersey Giants.

My brother thinks the Giants are going to blow away the other team. Ummmmm, I'm not so sure but I do hope the Giants win, cause my best friend, Handieman, will be blue if they don't.

I'd like to give what I think the score will be but I don't know how many points are in a touchdown???? Oh Well, I think the Giants will win anyway.

Kathie :redface:

Everybody who thinks KathieI is making this stuff up as she goes along, raise your hand.

redwitch 01-31-2008 11:47 PM
Re: Super Bowl Playoffs & Picks - or Who is the best football handicapper at TOTV ?
 
Nah, I believe her brother is giving her the picks and she knows next to nothing about football. Wish I didn't believe that cause I can just hear the questions come this fall.

KathieI 02-01-2008 03:45 AM
Re: Super Bowl Playoffs & Picks - or Who is the best football handicapper at TOT
 
Red's right, but so is Tony. Make this up as I go along but know nothing about the game. Red's in for a lot of explaining about, what is a down? What is offside? What is that pointy ball? Where'd it go? What's a line backer, ummmm! how many points is a touchdown? Why did that guy throw the ball instead of running? What's dribbling or walking or the 24 sec clock (oops, think that's the wrong sport). I'll drive her crazy!!! (or crazier, as the case may be.)

Love, the shy one :redface: :redface:

Kathie :redface:

As soon as someone answers my question, I'll give you my score, but until then, I haven't got a clue.

redwitch 02-03-2008 01:06 PM
Re: Super Bowl Playoffs & Picks - or Who is the best football handicapper at TOTV ?
 
Kathie --

Touchdown = 6 points
Extra Point Conversion = 1 point (the kick after the TD)
Two-Point Conversion = 2 points (running the ball in after the TD)
Field Goal = 3 points (kicking the ball over the goal posts, not after a TD)
Safety = 2 points (idiot gets tackled in his team's end zone with the ball, 2 pts for the team that did the tackling)

sheesh!!!!!!

KathieI. I usually watch the Superbowl for the commercials and maybe the halftime show depending on who is performing that is.

Have not really been a big sports fan ever more of a moviefan.

Re: Super Bowl Playoffs & Picks - or Who is the best football handicapper at TOTV ?
 
We did it. We took the 18-0 Patriots and sent them to the non-19-0 team!

Love them Giants!! If you are counting that is three Rings. Great game.

GO Giants!

Bill

Thanks Red, better get used to explaining all the sports stuff to me,

Here's my guess, Giants will win .....ummmm 17-14 and the last couple of minutes will be soooo exciting....

How's that for a guess.


Kathie :redface: (shy and not sports minded)

Now I will have to actually get around to watching more of the Super Bowl 42. I was taping it so I could get the commercials recorded as I was doing my normal evening thing of watching DVDs.

Did watch a lot of the end of the Super Bowl 42 except for the last few minutes which I watched after logging onto TOTV to see what actually happened while I was watching the Kevin Kline movie in DVD called Trade.

Congrats to the Giants. :clap2: :beer2:

CONGRATS to
I2ridehd Muncle DickY zcaveman

all tied at 17 points.

CONGRATS to the New York Giants

Taltarzac was in the running 2 points behind the tops folks.
The other 16 of us were, well, farther back.
That was a lot of fun!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats to KathieI for picking the exact score, that was amazing
(glancing at the time stamp LOLOL)

Maybe we should do something similar for the "candidates" ! ;D

JohnN? Hope you do something similiar with the 65 teams in NCAA basketball tournament in March. My brackets usually have been a mess due to some cinderella team's wins. Your weekly picks allow for more leeway.

JohnN 02-04-2008 10:58 PM
Re: Super Bowl Playoffs & Picks - or Who is the best football handicapper at TOT
 
aLn, for the candidates? down to 4.. I'd think about it but unsure there's many variables, what do you propose..

Taltarzac, hmmmm, I'll ponder it, friend
