OH yeah Tom I don't think the Lion's
could make that Bowl either.

They could certainly fill it up!
So could the Cardinals for that matter.

I am hoping that Phoenix can do better next year.
They certainly have the talent - hopefully Whisenhunt can get them into shape.

I have lost my interest in the superbowl and in pro football in general. The Superbowl is nothing more than a Hollywood production and is too commercialized for my liking anymore. Pro football has turned into a money generating over commercialized event that I feel has lost all is roots to the true game of the 60's through the 70's. Now the players and teams have no loyalty to cities or fans and just go were the money is. All the old stadiums with character are ripped down for "new and improved" sterile skyboxes. They don't even play on grass anymore, might get dirty! Ref's are constatly being challenged for calls which drag the game on for hours. Players leave the locker room in suits and ties  get into their Mercedes Benz, and drive to one of their mansions. Did you know that in the begining of pro football a player had to work in the off season since he wasn't getting paid when he wasn't playing! And it wasn't much!

Oh well, that's the way it goes..look at NASCAR..

You are right cormy but I sure do love the game.  It is a true sport and when you go to the high school games "what an atomsphere"

You got that right...fun time!!!

As far as the greed, etc. It all started when FOX TV got involved. Feeds on C-Band got encrypted - the NFL Sunday Ticket was "invented" - "free agency" picked up. Everything changed!!

Yeah.. yeah yeah.... After Today's Announcement about Favre Coming Back to the Packers for another season.... I just don't care about the superbowl any longer... my week has been made!!  Go Packers Super Bowl 2008 champions!!! '>

Hey

I look at it like like this.

All I want is a good exciting game. I would like to see the Payton have a good game & get the monkey off his back. I like the Coach for the Bear Lovey Smith. He seems so cool & calm on the sidelines.

But for me I will only have football withdrawl for two weeks.  My son's (Coke rescue team driver) college spring practice starts in two weeks. So it will be next season for me in two weeks

Go Dogs!

Kevin, here is your son playing ball?

[Kevin C]

Hey

He is at The Citadel.  1-AA Southern Conference team. He redshirted this year. He will be playing left offensive tackle this year & he will be second string. Being the second string means that you are one play away  from being the starter.

Last season they (The Citadel) played Texas A&M & Pitt.  In 07 they have a road trip to the land of cheese & beer. Wisconson.

College football!  I am ready to tailgating now
