Post Who's going to win the super bowl?


Who do you think is going to win the super bowl? How many of you actually betted money that your team is going to win?

I think the eagles are going to win, no I'm to young to bet :P (13).

No, no. The super bowl is that show with all the new commercials of the season. One of the few times when commercials are better than the show, in my opinion.

Wow, the same amount voeted for 'don't care' as the team choices combined.

Guess I shouldn't be too suprised, this is a Linux forum with a bunch of nerdy poindexters.

With the diversity of countries that participate on these forums I'm really not suprised by the outcome. Not everyone is fixated with football as us Americans can be. Others prefer Hockey but there season is pretty much done beacuse everyone involved can't stop crying about everyone else. Then there is Soccer and the sissy boy players. Sorry, this opinion is based on the sissy players that were in my high school and every high school in the area. I realize to play Soccer (Football everywhere else) takes an enormous amount of stamina and athletic ability but still, every soccer player in school was a sissy and I loved proving it to them in every other sport.

Hard to say I think the first Cray computer is still working on the 1974 superbowl. Should have the odds in about 7 more years.

I really don't follow football (american) any more back when I last played on a team when I was 10 or so I wasn't any good
I wasn't the worst on the team There aren't very many nerds and geeks where I live. Everyone likes football
Might play it in highschool but thats not likely.
