NE vs Philly? vote

Ubergrendle · Jan 26, 2005, 09:48 PM

Philadelphia - the city where fans boo a safe landing at the airport.

vs

New England - The team that wins despite having 2nds and 3rd on their defensive line.

NE schooled the best offense in the league (Indy) and dismantled the best defense in the league (Steelers) -- this will be no contest. The fact that the spread is only 6.5 is ridiculous.

But what do you think?

I'll wait to see what happens, thank you very much

^^^^^ I am going to have to concur on this point. But if this year is like superbowls past Ill have to find out monday what the score was. Ill be too hammered to remeber anything but the boobie. Some one better show the snack trays or I wont have anything to excited about.

i would love for philly to win, but i think that NE will take another SB win.

Ubergrendle · Jan 27, 2005, 03:33 PM

I was expecting Mr Terrel Owens to speak up (haha xxBallerxx).

Lots of people cheering for Philly, a team that is probably the sentimental favorite, but this is NE's Superbowl.

The half-time show will be ultra-boring this year for certain. I figure I can watch a quarter or two just to watch Philly get pwnd.

Given how much I hate the Philadelphia Flyers, I suspect my loathing of Philly sports teams is merely a psychological extension of my pretensions. Toronto has a pretty good Philly rivalry, having taken a world series from them in 1992 (93?), and more recently having our beloved Maple Leafs defeated by the clutch'n'grab no talent senior citizens on Hitchcock's Flyers.

Oh, and the 7 game series of the 76ers vs Raptors in 2001.

Even I don't really care for them but I like to see them win. I like underdogs teams.

I want New Eng to win

Senor_Mota · Feb 6, 2005, 04:40 PM

Of course NE will win...they have one of the best offense teams of all time.

And I love the Eagles...

dipstick · Feb 6, 2005, 04:54 PM

Sorry to say the Eagles dont stand a chance.

No_Style · Feb 7, 2005, 12:03 AM

Patriots are all over this one. Although, it would be a wonderful surprise to see T.O, McNabb and the Eagles win it.

Update:

Congrats to New England Patriots~!

Nice try Mr. McNabb

Now to watch the new Simpsons and American Dad!

Ubergrendle · Feb 7, 2005, 12:52 PM

Well, New England didn't cover and it was a close game. Too bad it was still a horrible football game though...dropped balls left, right and centre; it wasn't till part-way through the 2nd quarter that someone made a first down.

2 interceptions in a row (one was called back) by McNaab? Where the f*ck was the timeout on that last scoring drive? It was mickey mouse manoeuvers by the Eagles all night... their best player was playing with half a leg.

The Patriots weren't much better. Every time they looked like they were about to open the game up, they'd start to run the ball (badly). Defensive coverage for Brady was weak too, he didn't have long to hold the ball.

It says volumes when Deion Branch -- who never scored a touchdown! -- gets the MVP for having the most receptions (5-10 yarders at that).

Anyone else this this was a lousy game?

Well, I have to give credit where its due -- T.O. was the best thing Philly put on the field, with or without a working ankle. 110 yards in an injured condition did alot for the Eagles.

Too bad McNaab completely folded. That last scoring drive was one of the worst I've ever seen. And before that, the Philly Defense needing a time out to get organised?!? What is this, amateur hour in Jacksonville?

New England was ripe for the picking, but the Eagles blew it big time. It would have been a blowout had Owens NOT been there.

Andy Reed's fault.
