Does anyone honestly think the Giants have a chance?

I mean like seriously, without lying to yourself or us.

Dr. Z does apparently

KT

Dr. Z is an idiot. He makes predictions just to stir shit up sometimes and it's really frustrating to think he gets paid for what he does. He also writes as if he's the ultimate football authority, and that's annoying too. I usually skip his section in the Fantasy Football Plus insert.

Eh, the guy has more football knowledge in one fingernail than you do in your whole body I would guess.

I personally think he's great and I learn a lot from reading his columns; plus he can actually write, unlike the majority of the sports"writers" out there.

KT

I disagree about the writing part, but I've only ever read his section in SI so that could be a poor basis for judgment.

And I'm not calling into question whether or not he is more intelligent than I am, I'm calling into question whether or not he is the absolute football genius he makes himself out to be.

That's funny though because I actually find him to be relatively self-depricating, which is one of the reasons I like him so much. He's certainly not an idiot by any stretch of the imagination.

KT

No, he's no idiot. And I guess I'm coming off the wrong way about it. I just feel there are times when he's very arrogant and one always remembers the bad more than the good, so I guess that's my issue.

FWIW, I checked out his column from last week's SI yesterday (first SI I've had a chance to read in 6 weeks since I've been out of town) and I didn't find much I disliked about it.

Maybe time is a healer of relationships. :)

I will laugh my ass off if the Giants win. I'm not saying they don't deserve to win, or if I dislike either team. But I couldn't imagine all the puzzled people running a muck.

you missed it :(

I always miss it. I just like to plan a hike for when the game is on so I have the trails to myself.
Well you live on the East Coast so most of the actual game will be played in the evening.

I think by hike he means robbing the local liquor store.

In other news, a lot of "circuit girls" and their pimps are traveling to the Superbowl as well...

are we talking average street trash, or something more upscale?

Upscale.

I live about half way between Boston and NY so this is a hot subject around here. A month a go I would have said Patriots without any hesitation. But Brady is hurt and the Giants have surprised me throughout the playoffs.

My prediction: Boston by 10 points.
