it's been good, like a real game with the best players.

Team Rice had no chance.

At one point on the field, Team Sanders defensive front four was Watt, Suh, McCoy and Hardy.
And they we're actually trying

Forget about it.

Not quite "You can find me in da 'Dome, chillin' wit' Jarome!", but pretty good playoff run song parody video by some fans for the Seahawks. Bar-down, you may want to keep scrolling down and give this a pass.

All this talk about the weather is getting annoying. What did they expect when they picked NJ?

Now a few media outlets are bringing up a possible date change to Saturday if the forecast is better. Ya, Im sure that would happen.

They're bringing it up because they don't want to cover the game in the weather. I don't think the players and coaches on either team are afraid of what mother nature might have in store for them.

Wimpy media.

I think Matt Prater could be the x factor in this game. Anytime you have a kicker that is automatic inside of 50 and almost automatic inside of 60 you have a bit of an edge. 1 or 2 longer field goals could be the difference.

You can deduct a bit of his distance away from Mile High. About 5 yards:

They didn't play those guys the final drive! It's like any all-star game, a lot of reserves in near the end.

The baseball one is the best.. everything decided in the 9th inning by guys from the Royals and Padres.

The media outlets are idiots. They're playing Sunday in whatever weather. The teams know this.

According to Vegas Gambling Steam on Twitter, undefeated boxer Floyd Mayweather has bet 10 million dollars on the Denver Broncos to beat the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XLVIII.

Has anyone found a website where you can bet O/U on "Omahas" in the game? I'm dead serious.

According to this article the line is at 27.5. http://www.nj.com/super-bowl/index.s..._and_more.html

I don't know where you can play it though. I checked Pinnacle and Bet365 and they don't have it offered.

Good luck.

Don't know where to bet but when you find out take the under because there won't be much reason for Manning to be changing plays against the Seahawks. They just don't do a lot of disguising and tricks.

Sure, I get that. I guess my point was that he is almost automatic from anywhere. His percentage is very high at more than 50 yards and 1 or 2 of those could be the difference. It doesn't have to be a 64 yarder that seals the the deal.

You might want to check Seattles kicker numbers before you decide that the Denver guy is going to be the difference...

I hope they don't disguise. Plays right into Manning's hands.
