I could go into NASCAR but I'm gonna be good and agree with Mattingly on the fact that New England will lose.

Panthers will end Patriots's 15 games winning steak!

How does that work in New York are most Giant fans Yankee fans and Met fans are Jet fans or is it vice versa or just completely random?

Back then, I think most Yankee fans were Giants fans, and Mets fans were Jets fans, primarily because neither had a real NFL stadium, and the Giants played at Yankee Stadium and the Jets played at Shea.

Since Leon Hess moved the Jets to play in the Meadowlands in Giants Stadium. I think with those teams' moving, both teams became fair territory. I know of Mets and Yankee fans both liking the Giants, just as both have followed the Jets. Some fans haven't changed teams since they'd actually played in NYC.

To answer your question, for long-time fans, they'll be faithful, and for newbies, it could be the players, the coaches, or what their family members or buddies like.

Hey, I like the Nets and a litle of the Devils, but some of my Yankee buddies, they like the Knicks and Rangers. In that case, it all depends upon where you live.

I hope so. The fewer "Yankee Sucks" parades, the merrier.

So, you're saying you never bet on baseball?

Seems I've heard that somewhere before . . .

If it ends at 15 . . . so be it!

For the Panthers to end the Patriots winning streak at 15 games, they would have to play + beat the Pats on the first game of next season! You see, the winning streak will reach 15 when they win the Super Bowl on February 1st.

i don't even bet on football, the only gambling i do is play the lottery when it gets over 100 million. i live 40 miles from atlantic city and haven't gambled down there in 6 years. there aren't to many successful gamblers in the world last time i looked.

It shows that Panthers stopped McNabb, so that means they can stop Brady!

Well, we stopped both Co-MVP's in successive weeks . . . which means nothing concerning the outcome of the Super Bowl game.

BTW, the Eagles really played horribly and McNabb wasn't close to playing at 100% . . . :o

Yes, as a matter of fact!
The New England Patriots won their last Super Bowl in a dome in New Orleans 2 years ago! Adam Veniteri really enjoys kicking Super Bowl winning field goals in domes too BTW. . .

[Kdub Red Sox Fan 4Life]

My prediction: Patriots 34 Panthers 13

MVP: Ty Law. 2 more picks, both for touchdowns.

2 Super Bowl wins in 3 years........I'm starting to see a trend.
