I agree, but I would sort of like McNabb to pick up a SB before he retires, which cant be far off. Hopefully with the most amazing match-winning performance off his own back to win the thing (Im thinking 300pa yds, 100 rush yds, 5 TDs, no INTs? :harhar:

), and then says "screw you, philly" and leaves. That would amuse me.

Aye, McNabb's due...too bad he'll get mauled by either the Steelers or the Ravens.

Agree. If the cards do win, Im at least looking forward to either of the AFC defences mauling Warner, he's been dodging sacks by the skin of his teeth, against the Ravens or Steelers he's gonna get dumped on his backside repeatedly. I hope. Sacks are my favourite part of the game, to the extent that when I play Madden I blitz with pretty much everyone pretty much all the time. I give up a lot of deep TD passes, but boy do my sack ratings look good.

Here's a good article that breaks down potential SB match ups.

Personally, being an east cost boy, I'll root for the Pittsburgh/Philly showdown....

Well I pretty much HATE Philly and everything it stands for. That and Steelers fans shouldn't be allowed to reproduce.

Can you guess who I'm rooting for?

So last night I was walking downtown for some pizza at like 1am with some friends of mine,
and someone said, "I'm so hungry I could eat a whole pizza."

I said, "I bet I could eat 100 pizzas," and no one understood me. I was sad.

What exactly does Philly stand for? Cheese steaks? I'm all about the cheesesteaks!

You seem bitter today, Sparky.

EDIT: Wait, Philly could stand for cream cheese too!

I very much dislike people from Philly. Their general attitide towards others is borderline appalling.

Not bitter, I just dont think anyone should have to work on Sundays...especially when there's football to be seen.

Cards are quickly putting points on the board!! They might be for real!

The Warner/Fitzgerald tandem is in full swing...

24-13, the Eagles are back in with a shout, albeit a slim one. Im desperate for a 3 and out from the Cards, followed quickly by a one pass TD drive from Philly just before the end of the 3rd quarter, to set up a 24-20 4th quarter, where anything could happen and excitement shall reign.

I am delighted that Cole sacked Warner too. HA! :harhar:

Well, Arizona has completely lost all momentum. I don't think they will win today, though I'd like them too. Eagles are up 25-24

Well, whoda thunk it. Cards sneak it back at the end, shame for the Eagles. Gotta feel sorry for McNabb, he played a blinder - 375pa yards plus a few decent scrambles, what's the poor bastard gotta do to win?!?

Flacco's having a 'mare atm, 1 of 7 for 2yds and an interception. Ouchies. Big Ben's not doing much netter, but the steelers seem to have the slight edge so far. 6-0.

Eagles, despite a valiant attempt at a comeback, sucked it big-time. Steelers are looking as if they'll defeat the Ravens....

Cards in the Superbowl? Is the world coming to an end?

I am close to becomming a Cardinals fan. Damn it is fun to see a team play that good offense. I dont give a rats ass for teams like Ravens and Steelers when it comes to "fun to watch".

Ravens score 13 - 16 it isnt over yet!

Nope, not me. Go Cards.

My team is the Chargers, but in this SB I'll go Cards.

Cards are probably the worst regular-season team to ever make it to the superbowl...

9-7? They shouldn't have even made it the playoffs

Still, Warner and Fitzgerald are playing like superstars...

I wonder how Leinart feels about all this...he certainly has enough time to think about while he's on the bench..

Fitz should be the legue MVP. I want the glazers to give him all their money so he'll come to the bucs.

Steelers got a good D, but I don't think they'll be able to stop that offense...at least not enough for them to outscore the Cards.

Big Ben FTSuck!

Fitz obviously need come to indy to replace Harrison (what the hell was he doing this season?).

My god...I've been watching ESPN all morning...they've had interviews with Steelers and Cards players - these guys can barely form coherent sentences. Fitzgerald seemed fairly intelligent, though.

But a CB for Pitt, forget his name, was a mess of unintelligible ebonics...

If you're going to go on national television at least be somewhat understandable...

Goes to show they're not paid for their brainz.

Harrison is done. As much as I hate to say that, it's true. They need to reach out and touch Ocho Cinco, that man won't be happy till he's outta Cincy

o_O

Ocho Cinco would work well...

Colts need to get a deep threat, for sure. Harrison had some legal problems, but that doesn't excuse his lackluster performance this season.

Fitzgerald would be better though!

If the Colts were the like the Yanks, they'd get them both...
