    Who Dat!?

    The Vikings likely just played their best game of the season. Can they do it again against the Saints in the Super Dome? I don't think so. The game will be a good bit closer, but could go either way. Saints by three.

    Opps! I didn't think it went through the first time! Yes, they will kick a field goal with 1 second on the clock!

    Saints, and I don't think it'll be as close as people think.

    Don't get too overconfident my friend.

    The Favre is strong with that one.

    Neither do I, people don't realize Saints absolutely blow out the elite teams in the NFL but they edge out against the inferior teams. They've been like that for a while. I remember in 2002 they were basically the same way.

    I seem to remember a high octane offense Saints team entering an NFC Championship game vs a NFC North team not too long ago.


    Beware the ides of March mother****ers.

    Too bad the game was in Chicago and the Bears had unbelievable defense. Vikings have a weak Pass-Defense, this matchup favors the Saints completely.

    I can see Favre struggling in this game and Sharper picking him a couple times. Saints crowd is gonna play a huge factor. Moreover, I think Payton is gonna out-coach Childress badly and leave him scratching his bald head.

    Live in Minnesota, and while I don't pay a whole lot of attention to football in general, I'm definitely rooting for the Vikings.

    Superbowl: Vikings over Colts.

    Level of predictability:

    Baseball - Easy
    NFL - Easier
    NBA - Easiest

    I only watch basketball games.

    You had the Cardinals in the Super Bowl last season after they limped in at 9-7?

    I was pulling for the Giants against the Pats a couple of yrs back but that was a huge upset. Not too many saw that coming.

    If you took a newspaper with this headline on the sports section and traveled back to the early '90s, anyone who saw it would have a stroke.

    Baseball is easy? You're guaranteed to win and lose at least 50 games a piece each year.
