So who do you want to win and who do you think will win?

**pliny_2001** · January 26th, 2011, 08:55 PM

100%! Just close it up now, Toonces!

My pick was obvious.

Although take a look at the wall in my spare room / dressing room (so as not to wake the missus when I'm getting ready for work)...

Pittsburgh Steelers are my favorite team.

Reggie White is my all-time favorite player (and I sort of adopted the Pack as my favorite NFC team).

So... if the Packers win, I won't be too upset (as long as the Steelers at least play a good game).

I really don't care that much who wins, but give a little favor to Green Bay since they are NFC and thus a SB victory would make the Falcons loss to them a little more stomachable.

Regardless of all that, I give them a slight edge in the game given the way they have played the past few months...

Hey sidenote here... help me out... I get the whole Green Bay/Wisconsin/Cheesehead thing... but could someone give me a little history on how the whole terrible towel thing came about...?

It was created by a guy named Myron Cope back in the 70's. He basically just came up with it as a gimmick to get the fans fired up.

Since my Jets r out, and I requested SuperBowl off, i might finagle a way to go down to the keys for the day and do a lil kayaking/hiking/relaxing. BUT if I had to pick Id say Packers win.

Packers defense is Good, while offense is great. Pitts defense is elite but offense is good. Mendenhall is good, but the passing game is lacking. Woodson will shut down ne wide out. Clay Matthews is having a Def Player of the Year year and is gonna come strong. A Rodgers is havin a great year, while back up rb is doing excellent. With the game being played in a domed stadium(cowboys) the weather isnt going to be a factor. So offense will be high with minimum mistakes due to climatic factors. Pitts defense has been lights out this year BUT i feel like the Packs offense will score pts and maybe even a def td for Woodson. My prediction is Packers 27 Steelers 17....

**SAINT_X** · January 27th, 2011, 08:46 AM

Please win Pack...please...

**justaguy87337** · January 27th, 2011, 09:16 AM

hey I'm sorry for all you packer fans getting your hopes up. But you can quote all the stats you want. truth be told. You can't beat Big Ben in the Big Game. STEELERS rise to the occasion, no names make huge plays. 38-17 STEELERS

**A1food4U** · January 27th, 2011, 10:54 AM

In an effort not to look like a homer i've been biting my tongue. Many around my neck of the woods are lamenting the Steelers as our opponent. they feel we had a much easier path going thru the JETS. I say this to them....PISS OFF!!! if you gonna be the best you gotta beat the best!! I welcome the Big Ben Challenge, I think our D gets a slight edge because of our corners, Linebackers and D lineman are a wash. The O's are about even but I'd have to give the running game to mendehal and those nasty yellow towel waivers. But at QB it's a toss up, Ben's got lead in his balls but A Rod's got ice in the veins and a never quit attitude. looking at his changed play in the second half of the bears game i believe he was concussed again but wouldn't go near the med staff. You gotta love the Balls on both these awesome QB's....

Gonna be a nasty fight in the trenches but i think the Pack on top 28-24 With lots of respect to the Steelers, their fans and Ben. But sorry Ben you'll be 10-2 in the playoffs come next week!!!!

**SAINT_X** · January 27th, 2011, 04:44 PM

OK A1, based on that I'll go ahead and start watching when it comes on...but if at any point it looks like The Steelers ( note, I did capitalize..) are going to win ... I'm going to go outside quit watching the NFL for at least a year, or at least until Jerry Jones is gone.

**cardinal11** · January 27th, 2011, 04:51 PM

I vote for Jerry being gone...... but ain't gonna happen.

**RunningMan27** · January 27th, 2011, 05:21 PM

I want the Steelers to win and think they will.

It's also good for you all to know that Dallas is getting as many strippers as they can for the big event...I never thought planning for the Super Bowl was that extensive.

The Steelers are finally getting a Super Bowl opponent that the NFL promotes. Should be a good game and the zebras shouldn't have a Stealers bias. So, Pack all the way.

Just as an aside, Ben the man deserves no respect. Heck of a player though.

DevinWatt · January 31st, 2011, 01:51 AM

Steelers. They have a cool logo.

**A1food4U** · January 31st, 2011, 11:01 AM

So.... your basing your decision on a cool logo???? Really?? a logo?

Give me a break. Every team has their moments where calls appear to be given in their favor, and everyone who dislikes those teams cries bias. So hate the Steelers and whine about their success all you want. It won't change this fact...

I agree.

**justaguy87337** · January 31st, 2011, 01:41 PM

ya Ben bought into the hype and thought he could do what ever he wanted. reguardless of other people. I hope he's grown up a little. not many people get a 2nd chance after what he did.

Sounds like he is a very knowledgeable fan

**Weeble29** · February 1st, 2011, 12:39 PM

I think Pouncey will prove to be a big loss when Raji disrupts the running game. Pittsburgh won't be able to pass all game like Green bay so this will even the playing field. I think the Pack can win this game, but the cheap luck and bullshit that is always in Pittsburgh's favor will most likely reign supreme. I am not a Steeler fan because of thier arrogant fans and would like nothing more than for Rodgers and company to wipe that pompous look off Tomlin's face. Go Pack Go!!!

Steelers of Packers?
