And on to another Superbowl! Will goodell finally show a modicum of class, or will he have one of his coat-holders present the trophy to the Pats?

    Not a Falcon, but as close as I can get.

    The Pats certainly deserve this trip to Houston, but, we know one of the Falcon coaches and will be rootin' for the black and red. Should be a great game played by two championship teams - I'll take whatever the outcome. Enjoy!

    Alternative fact: The Detroit Lions are going to beat the Pats in the 2017 Superbowl!

    Maybe ... if the Lions can ever GET to the Super Bowl. Right now they are too upset prone.

    Amazing that the Pats can take a player like Kyle Van Noy and make him out to be a superstar. When he was with the terminal Lions earlier this ear he was either hurt or stunk. Methinks the Lions will never figure it out! :'(

    Would be OK with me if the Lions NEVER make it to the Super Bowl. :)

    What a horrible weekend of football. You look forward, all week, to watching a couple of good games. Instead I wasted 6 hours......

    The Pats are cheaters and have been since 2001

  • KellenCoinKellenCoin Posts: 1,237 ✭✭✭✭

    I don't like either team, but the Patriots have cheated previously, so I have to go with the Falcons. However, we all know who DESERVES to win: GO SEAHAWKS!

    Time for the Falcon's 1st Superbowl Victory! :smiley:

    There aren't enough Morgan dollars to get me to support NE. Also glad as a Broncos fan to have denied them two previous trips recently.

    GO FALCONS!!!

    I live in south Texas and decided many years ago the only way I would ever see Houston associated with a super bowl is to host them. Talk about a cursed team. The Oilers were ahead of the Bills 35-3 in the third quarter of a playoff game and managed to loose. The game was for a super bowl spot. It is rated by ESPN as the greatest comeback ever. The Texans refuse to sign a quarterback that is not color blind. Last season the offense scored a whopping 25 TDs. I am at the point now that I feel a class act like J.J. Watts should be traded to the Pats or Packers. He deserves to play in a Super Bowl and it will never happen if he stays in Houston. I don't think the Pats can keep up with Atlanta's offense but it will be a good game. I want Atlanta to win because I feel their pain associated with many seasons of loosing and this being their second trip to the big game. I do like the Pats as Kraft knows how a professional football team should be run,staffed and coached.

    Yeah, I'll root for the Falcons because they are clean as a whistle. They did not lose a 2016 draft pick for pumping in fake crowd noise in their stadium. Oh, wait, they did.

    I am likely the only one here that never watches football (or baseball or basket ball)... Just never understood the fascination with chasing balls...Cheers, RickO

    No, you are not the only one.
    I have too many other things that interest me to spend time watching other people do things.
    If sports are your thing, great. I'm glad you enjoy watching.
    Just not interesting to me.
    The "chasing balls" line almost, almost...... brought out the Beavis and Butthead in me.
    Almost. >:)

  • rickoricko Posts: 98,724 ✭✭✭✭✭

    :D Yep.... I thought of that as well..... Cheers, RickO

  • OuthaulOuthaul Posts: 7,440 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Actually, I only watch the Pats and the Red Sox. Not a big hockey or roundball fan.

    Cheers

    Why? We got rid of (or he got rid of us); Suh that is...no one left to hate except ownership. Maybe the mighty Quinn will bring that Pat magic to Motown.

    Looking forward to a good game. I like both teams.

    America loves a winner. And may the best team win. Now, to keep this numismatically related;
    here is a coin submitted for a fellow who wanted it insured for five figures.
    Guess the grade or the problem.
    And before you guys tell me I owe telling the details to a customer, let me add: I try to tell people what I think but it rarely matters, when the mind is made up.

    Scratches in the field near Liberty's forehead and at 12:00 - 1:00 obverse, and a coin that's as dull as dishwater.
