Football Playoffs

Who is everyone routing for this weekend? Any predictions on who'll be in the Super Bowl?

No one here (London) cares two sh!ts about American football. I miss talking to people about it!

Oh, and if you can't tell from my TK name, I'm a (Bmore) Ravens fan. My dad has season tickets for the past 5 years and drives up from Richmond (about a 3 hour drive each way) for the games each week. He usually takes me to one game a year, but I couldn't go this year since I moved out of the country

Well I'll admit I don't pay much attention to the NFL and what I do watch is usually just the Superbowl (for the half time show, commercials and the food of course)and the odd game here and there that FI may have on.
Put I'll give out a prediction for the fun of it..

Baltimore VS New England= New England
NY Giants VS San Francisco= NY Giants.

I am going to agree with Madisonpenny's predictions. I am a very big Patriots fan and worked at their stadium through college. I am hoping that the game against the Ravens is not a replay of a few years ago. They intercepted Brady's pass on the first drive and it was all downhill from there. It would be nice to get some redemption if they end up playing the Giants too.

I agree 100% with penny on all predictions. I am a huge patriots fan!! FI's aunt has season tickets and I'm hoping she brings me next year to a game!  I am a bit sad though that Green bay lost and we couldn't duke it out with them at the super bowl.  One of my cousins is a huge green bay fan so that would've been fun.

I'm hoping for the 49ers and Ravens in the Superbowl, just because neither team ever makes it there, so it'd be nice for a change.  Plus, FI's a 49ers fan, so I'm routing for them for him.  Unfortunately, I think the other 2 teams will be in it, though.

PATRIOTS vs. GIANTS in the superbowl.

I haven't been much into football this year. The UT Longhorns sucked it up once again and so did the Cowboys... I need better teams! But i'll watch the superbowl for the halftime and commercials :]

butterflyjumper1

i am not too worried about who is playing this year since my team embarassed me....but i am volunteering for many of the fan-related events since the super bowl is in my hometown!! i am hoping to get to rub shoulders with a celeb or two

Not really into it this year- the Vikings are a disgrace. I am so embarrassed!

THE NEW YORK FOOTBALL GIANTS

(I would LOOOOOVE to see a rematch with the Pats!)

When the Colts are no longer involved, I no longer care LOL Stinks living in Patriots country now! (I'm originally from Indiana.) Also stinks that the Colts sucked this year. Hopefully the new coach will get their butts in gear!

On the plus side, having two outside teams for the Superbowl will be good for Indy's economy (gotta look on the bright side!)

So my answer is...I don't care. Preferably not the Patriots because then I have to hear about it too much for my liking.

Giants and Patriots. 

Im a Lions girl- so Im pretty much just happy the Packers lost. But the giants did well against Green Bay, but Patriots might be my number 2 team. 

It will be a good game i think. Though an upset this weekend could be interesting!

I  hate football but since the Jets are not in it I would have to vote for the Giants.  FI is a huge JETS fan!

Ugh. I'm VERY disappointed with all four of the teams left. Bengals are out, Saints are out, Greenbay is out.

The only exciting team left in the play-offs is the Patriots - so we all better hope they make it - or we will have a VERY boring Superbowl. Very...

I think Ravens vs. Giants would be the biggest snooze fest -_-

Ahhh! How can you hate football?

I live, breathe, and digest football.

I actually converted FI from a soccer fan to an American football fan.

I'm a die hard Giants fan so I say Giants and Patriots. And it will turn out just like 2008 did (:

bells24412

Wow, I am loving all this Patriots hating going on!! LOL.

The 49ers beat the Bengals is BOTH of our Super Bowl appearances - otherwise - I'd probably be rooting the 49ers to re-emerge as a dynasty..

But I'm bitter.

Well, I am a Colts fan.  Not thrilled with this season.  Is there any truth to the Rob Lowe tweet about Manning?  I have not heard anything about it from @nflcolts.  Just from news articles that have not verifed.  His agent and father says it is not true, but Peyton has not confirmed or denied the rumor.

Anyways,  I hope the Giants win this weekend.  They have connections to my hometown.  One of their players, Brandon Jacobs (running back I think) went to the university next town over from my hometown.
