Super Bowl XLIX

To start things off, who do you think is going to win and what bets have you made with friends.

None of you can top this one however:

Starlord VERSUS Captain America.

**mind blow**

Sick kids are about to get a massive dose of awesome.

I want the Patriots to win, but ultimately voted for the Seahawks because I feel they are the much stronger team. I also think the Green Bay game was a wake up call and probably invigorated them to play at a much higher level than they did in the NFC championship game. I just hope it's a much better game than last year's SB was. Good grief that was a slaughter.

I also voted Seahawks. I hate the team but just objectively think they'll pull out the W... I would absolutely love to see the hawks get dominated though, it would make my day.

Pats will deflate their balls even MOAR, and dominate the hawks!

Hawks, cause a great defense almost always trumps a great offense

AND

The refs are going to PUNISH the Cheatriots by essentially calling this one like a Seahawk home game.

Quantity of penalties is SO much less important than the timeliness of each call. Just watch the Hawks get the more critical calls go their way on Feb 1. GB had choke that game away, they had so much advantage.

I think the Seahawks will struggle to score any points against New England due to a lack of offensive weapons. Belichick will scheme to stop or slow down Lynch...and the Seahawks receivers will struggle to get separation from the Patriot secondary.

Also, the Seahawks O-Line is banged up and will struggle against a Pats D-Line anchored by Vince "Air" Wilfork.

Also look for New England to run some bubble screens at Richard Sherman and force him to make tackles (sweep the leg Johnny!) with that banged up elbow.

Patriots somehow use the us against them mentality to score enough to win.

I am picking
Pats 24
Seahawks 13

BTW I am a Pats fan that lives in Tacoma (45 min away from Seattle).

I do pull for the Seahawks, unless they are playing against my Pats.

Either way, this will be bitter sweet, because I have defended the Pats since 2007 against the "cheaters" label.
But fuck it, its earned and I am very disappointed.

EDIT: to the people claiming the Pats are the only team that cheats...Adderall.

All of them...





...it felt like



GO HAWKS! The Pats aren't my least favorite team (aka I don't hate them) and of course I clicked on Seahawks on the poll above but... In the last several years, in EVERY game that I bet against the Pats, I've lost. So my lesson was never bet against Tom Brady. I'm conflicted.

I have to go with the Pats on this one. Not a fan of either team.

It's going to come down to the Seattle offence, and I just don't think they have the talent to put up enough points to make a difference.

Couldn't agree more.
