Who will win the superbowl?

Ummmmmmm.....losing?

Just a thought.

Well, I have to say I neither know nor care! Or I would have....

but, in today's New England Journal of Medicine there's a report showing 41% increase in average number of road fatalities after the telecast on Sunday. This increase also applied to non-fatal injuries. It was generally larger in states with a losing team than neutral states, and larger in a neutral state than states with a winning team.


So, if your team loses the Superbowl, be careful out there! The state with the winning team is safest, but there's an increase all round after the game!

i'm still going somehow to a superbowl party. i wonder if they have cable in the court house?

consider yourself bit. a giant gator bite.


you know it occurs to me that the florida college teams didn't do so well in bowl games this season. fsu, miami, and that other team all lost in bowl games.

but nontheless, the buc's will prevail.

since gruden coached the raiders for four years, the edge would go to him. he knows all the tendencies of all his former players, and most importantly their weakness'.

pdiddie, root away for tampa bay!

edgar, there's still time to reverse your post

pueo,
I offer my warm, cozy home to you to watch the game and you have the nerve to blame me for you having to appear in court. That's just unbelievable! I'll make sure to take a few seconds during the game to give thought to the fun you're having sitting in that boring court room.
Don't give it a thought, because the only thing you're going to miss, is your Bucs losing the game. You're better off not having to witness that.

PDiddie,
Living in Tampa for a short time doesn't make you responsible for having to root for them when you know that Oakland is going to win. You still have time to change your mind and come over to my side.

Rae,
I can understand why you're rooting for Tampa Bay, but just because you live in Florida doesn't mean you have to be dedicated to a Florida team.
However, I can understand what could happen to you if you don't root for Tampa Bay, and someone around you finds out. :wink:
By the way, would you care to bet a bagel on the game?

The Raiders seem Satanic to me.

Aggressive, confrontational, obnoxious, intoxicated...

And that's just their fans.

PDiddie,
And your point is?

dlk33 ~ okay, a one bagel bet it is!

My disclaimer: I AM only betting on The Bucs because they are a Florida team. I am not a fan of the NFL. At all.

Rae,
You do realize that you have to watch the game if you're going to bet, don't you? If you don't, it won't be as meaningful if (which you won't) you happen to get lucky enough to win the bet.

buc's win 35-17. remember, you heard it here first

There's no way the Bucs will score 35 points, remember you heard it here first.

Does anyone happen to know what the over/under is?

My Internet connection is sluggish due to the Web-wide virus outside this website...is yours?

I don't think Tampa scores 35 either; and I like TB's defense matching up against Oaklnd's offense, so I don't think they score a lot.

i'm thinking something like 23-16 Bucs, and if the o/u is more than 40, I really like that...

dlk ~ bettin bagels is serious business ~ of course I'm going to watch the game!

Oakland 24, Tampa Bay 17. That's the score that keeps popping up in my head.
Rae,
bagels is plural, we're only betting one bagel so I guess you only have to watch half of the game, although I'm sure you'll want to turn the T.V. to a different station before the half, for lack of interest due to the fact that Oakland won't have any points on the scoreboard yet. :wink:
I'm probably going to have to eat my words, and feel very for putting the horse before the buggy, especially when I have no control of the final outcome in a situation such as this.
What can I say, blame it on my competitive nature. I can't help myself.

Yesterday, after clicking on to a Norton Anti-Virus thread here, MY Norton Anti-Virus clicked in. Was worried, puter screen doing odd things. My anti-virus must have worked, but news reports a weak worm that may be moving through Message Boards...

Well, betting bagel(s) IS serious business ya know.

I think Oakland will do a repeat of last year.

I'm going with Tampa Bay, 24/17.

Oh yeah, I have enough beer to watch the whole game, so I guess I'm gonna!

Rae,
You have nerve to use the same score I did, but turned around in your teams favor.
You make sure you drink plenty of that beer, so that when the game is over, you won't actually be able to remember who won. This way, even if my team does lose (which they won't) I will still be able to convince you that they won.
I'm always as sober as they come, so there won't be any confusion on my end. I may eat too much, but that won't affect my senses in anyway. :wink:
Be talking to ya at half time.

You crack me up, dlk! I'll be here at half-time!

By the way, my ex husband is actually putting the score at 38/27, Tampa Bay. I was gonna go with that one, but didn't want to give him ammo for something I've agreed with him on!
