Superbowl LII - picks and commentary

[X Factor 1,110]

I would love to see underdog Eagles win this one in Minnesota. Let's hear the theme music from the Rocky movies. 

 

Rooting for a close and exciting game.

They may need to buy more Crisco in Philadelphia?  Do they tax that more in that city?

I bet the whole country to the west of I-87 would love to see Eagles win but the g.o.a.t will beat the dog again. Go Pats!

Personally, I like the Pats.

For a Giants fan there will be no Superbowl this year.

Actually, most Giants fans will prefer see the Pats win, and that says a lot.

It was disappointing that Vikings did not show up to play well yesterday.

 

Most of the Vikings fans will probably be cheering the Patriots to beat the Eagles, because the Eagles Fans are totally classless.

That would have been interesting to see a home field team playing in the SB.  I know that game is not exactly a home field game given the ticket prices, but I imagine had the Vikings made it a lot of their fans would have mortgaged their houses to get tickets.

The cheapest SB tickets are like $4K plus per person.

I'm sure won't be that dumb one to spend that much money to buy one.

That's better than what I saw on StubHub ~$6K with fees included. ESPN reported someone paid $132K for 10 tickets at 35yd line on lower bowl.

Crazy prices. Will just watch it on a large screen. The wife will have more fun with the commercials

According to twitter data, ND is the only state outside New England area that supports Patriots in SB. ND rooting for Pats is interesting because injured Eagles QB Wentz attended NDSU. I must say I'm disappointed in CT but feels like CT associates itself more with the Tri-state area than New England anyways.

I guess some people have more money than they know what to do with.  No way I would pay that.

We're ready

I think it will be a tough game just as the last 7 for New England have been. Obviously I'm going with the Pats, but I could see Philly winning this game. They have an outstanding defense. I've watched the Patriots comeback and win so many times, yet is still nerve racking to watch. They can't top last years win coming back from a 25 point deficit in the 3rd quarter.

 

We NE fans know that it won't last forever and one way or another we are close to the end of something very special. It's been a helluva run for the past 17 years. We went from being the laughingstock of the NFL straight to the top and now probably the most hated team in the league. I'm hoping Brady still has some magic left. 54 times he has led the team to a comeback win. It almost seems that NE doesn't play its best unless they are trailing. Belichik and Brady. Wow.

 

Go Pats!!

I am hoping to watch Brady at Gillette at an early season game next Fall.

 

Meantime Air Kraft & Pats arrived at MSP this afternoon. Go Pats!
