3rd Annual Super Bowl Prediction

Current record: 2-0


It's that time of year again! The time where I predict who will win the Super Bowl.

Little recap of how I do this thing: I look at the quarterback for each team and choose based on whichever quarterback I like better. Now, I don't go too deep into this. Basically, I do a google image search and go from there. Or if they have a cool name. You get the picture.

This year's candidates: Tom Brady of the New England Patriots and Eli Manning of the New York Giants.

First up: Tom Brady

Tom Brady is hot. That's all that really needs to be said. I know a lot of people don't like him, but his hotness is already winning this thing. Plus, he doesn't have his Bieber haircut anymore.

And by the looks of this picture here, he has PeeWee Herman tattooed on his arm...


Next: Eli Manning

I wanted to give little Eli a chance, but he looks like he's about 14. I did the google search thinking maybe a fun picture would put him back in the game, but, sadly, no such luck. His wife is really pretty though.


The Winner:

Tom Brady and the New England Patriots

Do me proud, Tommy. Do me proud.


(I should mention that the Patriots are Taylor's favorite team. I did not take that into consideration when making my pick. I make my own decisions.)

(Also, I'm fully aware that Tom Brady does not, in fact, have PeeWee Herman tattooed on his arm. Or does he......)

The Super Bowl.

Tonight is the Super Bowl.
Are you excited?
Not gonna lie, my main reason for watching is to see the commercial for the Harry Potter theme park that will be shown.
I think it can be currently found online, but I'm saving myself for the moment when it comes on the tv.
Soooo excited.

Anyways, apparently there is also a football game that happens as well.
And a couple of times on here a long while back, I tried to guess the winners of the football games by seeing which quarterback I liked better.
One time I did super awesome, and another time I sucked it up.
That took forevers to do cause I had to google image all of the players, so I gave up.
But now there are only 2 teams, so I'm bringing it back.
My pick for the winner of the Super Bowl between the Colts and the Saint is........



The Saints.


Here is why.
The Colts' quarterback is Payton Manning.
I actually knew that before.
I'm not that big of a Manning fan (sorry Gooch.....) so he wasn't really up for my choice from the beginning.
Then I looked up the Saints' quarterback.
His name is Drew Brees.
After a Google image search, I found a picture of him with the actor that plays Carlton Banks.
And that helped me make my decision.
Carlton Banks=total win.

So, Mr Brees and the New Orleans Saints, I will be semi-cheering for you tonight.
Taylor would be proud that I'm not cheering for the Colts.

Fooooootball

It's that time of the week again.
The time where I predict who will win the football games this weekend.
Now, last time I did this, I did amazing.
I only predicted two wrong.
The Chiefs lost (surprise surprise) and Washington lost (I don't really know if that is a surprise or not..)
So I'm thinkin my method is awesome.

Here we go.
My predictions of who is going to win based on which quarterback I like better.

Denver (Kyle Orton) vs. Baltimore (Joe Flacco): Denver (cause he has a beard....)
New York Giants (Eli Manning) vs. Philadelphia (Kevin Kolb): New York Giants
Houston (Matt Schaub) vs. Buffalo (Trent Edwards): Buffalo
Cleveland (Derek Anderson) vs. Chicago (Jay Cutler): Cleveland
Seattle (Matt Hasselbeck) vs. Dallas (Tony Romo): Dallas
Miami (Chad Pennington) vs. New York Jets (Mark Sanchez): New York Jets
San Fransisco (Shaun Hill) vs. Indianapolis (Peyton Manning): Indianapolis
St Louis (Marc Bulger) vs. Detroit (Matthew Stafford): Detroit
Oakland (JaMarcus Russell) vs. San Diego (Philip Rivers): Oakland
Jacksonville (David Garrard) vs. Tennessee (Kerry Collins): Jacksonville
Minnesota (Brett Farve) vs. Green Bay (Aaron Rodgers): Green Bay
Carolina (Jake Delhomme) vs. Arizona (Kurt Warner): Arizona
Atlanta (Matt Ryan) vs. New Orleans (Drew Brees): New Orleans (I found a picture of him with Carlton Banks. That is why I pick him.)

Note: I look all of these guys up on Google images. I find that better than looking at those awesomely bad pictures of them on nfl.com.

Another note: Some of these were hard to chose. In both the good and bad.

You play American football??

(If you can name where the post title is from, you get a high five.)

So, I wanna start this new thing.
I love watching football.
On the professional level, I don't really have a team.
And I don't really pay attention to what teams are good and which are bad (ahem...the chiefs..)
But I want to start predicting who will win the games each week.
But I will do it my own way.

At my mom's work, sometimes she gets in on the football pot.
And while all the men pick based on actual stats and stuff, my mom picks her teams based on their colors and the uniforms.
She would pick the team with the manliest colors or the one with the better uniform.
I actually think she won a couple of times.

I, however, will pick based on the quarterback.
Which ever quarterback I like better is the team I will pick.
I know I'm kinda starting this in mid-season, but oh well.
It will still be fun.
So here we go:
(note: I just went to nfl.com for the first time ever..)

Green Bay (Aaron Rodgers) vs Cleveland (Derek Anderson): Green Bay (Rodgers is my momma's maiden name..)
San Diego (Philip Rivers) vs Kansas City (Matt Cassel): Chiefs (come on KC...I'm countin on ya to win two weeks in a row)
Indianapolis (Peyton Manning) vs St Louis (Marc Bulger): Indianapolis
New England (Tom Brady) vs Tampa Bay (Byron Leftwich): New England (Taylor would kill me if I picked other wise....)
Minnesota (Brett Favre) vs Pittsburgh (Ben Roethlisberger): Pittsburgh (He has a cooler name..)
San Fransisco (Shaun Hill) vs Houston (Matt Schaub): Houston
Buffalo (Trent Edwards) vs Carolina (Jake Delhomme): Buffalo
New York Jets (Mark Sanchez) vs Oakland (JaMarcus Russell): New York Jets
Chicago (Jay Cutler) vs Cincinnati (Carson Palmer): Cincinnati
Atlanta (Matt Ryan) vs Dallas (Tony Romo): Dallas
New Orleans (Drew Brees) vs Miami (Chad Pennington): New Orleans
Arizona (Kurt Warner) vs New York Giants (Eli Manning): Arizona
Philadelphia (Kevin Kolb) vs Washington (Jason Campbell): Washington
