Who are you all pulling for? Who's going to win?

Papa Doc & Sammy are also pulling for Patriots.

I'm riding with the Seahawks.

First time for everything, go Pats!

Seattle is way to obnoxious for my liking, especially Sherman.

and yet Sherman graduated in 3 years with honors from Stanford University, which is basically the Harvard, west of Mississippi.
regardless of the image he is selling, he is probably the smartest man currently playing in NFL and closer to Steve Urkel than any real thug some tend to portray him as. remember, it's all marketing, people. just like Jeff Hostetler won the Super Bowl and got no ad money when LT was on TV everyday. just like how Barry Sanders is ten times the player Deion was but everybody remembers Prime-Time gimmick far better today.

frankly i don't care about the Shehawks but i despise the Pats, any image of Tom Brady makes me sick to my stomach. that was no god damn Tuck, it was a freaking fumble. Charles Woodson knows it, Chucky knew it and god damn it even Tom Brady knew it.

i would love to see this being the first superbowl ever to have two losers lol.
ehhhhh f it.

Go Patriots!
Also I love the comparison during yesterday's Spurs commentary with the Pats and the Spurs. I think it was since '89, the stats are identical.

Completely agree, to this day that call still makes absolutely zero sense. He clearly pulled the ball back in. No way in hell was he throwing the ball. That was total BS.

But yes, 2 losers would be great. I don't like the Pats, I just dislike them less than Seattle. Lynch's media stuff is old, Sherman is annoying af, Pete Carroll is an absolute POS, and they have several ex Vikings on the team.
Only reason I would be happy about Seattle is because Kevin Williams (longtime Viking DT until this year) would have a ring. He had 11 great years in Minnesota.

and looks like your boy Kevin Williams will have a ring after tonight.

it's so weird for me, as we used to call them the she-hawks, sea-chickens, and the first name of their ex players i can think of whenever i hear that team, is Brian Bosworth, to this day.

but hey we are clipper fans, and if we can turn it around, why not them too?

I do agree that Pete Carroll bailed out on USC and was pretty damn shady then.
ehhhhh f it.

I honestly think that is what it is. how far this circus called super bowl have become... why is it even necessary to have half time shows... how many true football fans care who Katy Perry even is...... i reluctantly watched the game half-assed but as soon as the half time show came on i went straight to the crapper.

I'm not a Patriots fan and I don't care much for the Seahawks either. That being said I wanted the Patriots to lose. Seattle almost had it and literally threw the ball away. It was a good game though, very entertaining. That's all I wanted. I'm sure this will haunt the Seahawks for awhile.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

Not a fan of neither team. Personally I didn't want to see the Pats back in the SB after they been losing it twice against the Giants of all teams. That said, Seahawks just gave the game away. Why would you go for a pass on the 1 yard line when you had Marshawn Lynch to get it in for you? :crazy:

Ah well! Season's over. And look forward to next season.

I honestly think that was one of the best superbowls of all time. I can't believe I'm saying that cause I was truly disappointed following the championship games since I hate both teams, but they put on a hell of a show and that ending was one for the ages. As much as people complain about that play call, it wasn't THAT bad. Yeah I agree you should run it in with Marshawn, but if they stop him, they burn a timeout and have to throw the ball on 3rd down giving the Pats a huge advantage. Hindsights 20/20, but in the moment it was the most logical playcall. I can't even blame Wilson since Lockette looked completely open as he threw it, Butler just made one hell of a play and knew where the ball was going from the moment it was snapped. People need to stop putting the blame on the playcall and Wilson and give credit where credits due. For an undrafted rookie, Butler had the most poise I've ever seen. He made a great play on the ball on the play before when Kearse made that amazing catch and then recovered to tackle him after he realized that he caught. And after all of that, he came back the next play and made a Superbowl saving pick. He needs to get the recognition he deserves.

simple. negotiating leverage. Marshone gets the last TD he gets the glory and his payday goes up another floor. this is the reason why it is always a bad idea for the head coach to also have personnel power.
ehhhhh f it.
