Super Bowl

Seems like it could be a close game.

Seems Giants have had best defense in playoffs.

And with Gronkowski injured we think, could be tough for Patriots.

Will it be high scoring or low scoring?

Turnovers may make difference in game along with special teams.

I am leaning toward Brady. And Patriots winning close for some reason.

I don't really have a clear vibe about this one. I'm just hoping for an entertaining game as the last pro football we'll see live for the next five+ months. Can't wait for the draft.

Today, bring on the goofy and offensive tv commercials. That's what most people seem to focus on.

NBC did a feature about the former Saints player who now has ALS. They did a quick montage of other NFL players who had ALS and had a quick snippet of an Oiler running with the football that they identified as Glenn Montgomery. But the player had a number in the 30s and looked, as best as I can remember, like Marcus Robertson. Montgomery, if you'll recall, was a defensive tackle who probably wore a number in the 70s or the 90s (I want to say 95 but I'm not totally sure of that). Anyway, it certainly wasn't the skinny Oiler they showed carrying the football.

Shame on NBC Sports for that. Surely even a still black and white photo of the real Glenn Montgomery would have been more appropriate than trying to make viewers believe you have a video clip of a player when you don't.

(Update: Montgomery wore #94)

The Texans with a healthy Matt Schaub were better than both of these teams.

That is all.

That was all I could think. Two seriously flawed teams with big holes. The nfl playoffs are a pick em for the top 6 or 8 teams. Just be good enough, healthy and catch some breaks. We missed our first chance as a team who was legitimately good enough.

Yeah, enjoyed the game, ads , and halftime show.

And Texans are right there.
