I agree with Baltimore for the AFC.

The NFC is a tough call.

We shall see if home field advantages does something or not..

 

[Sonnie]

True... NFC should be a good one. You might say them Niners is purdy good.

something funny from the web.. Map meme of who is rooting for who!

 

[Todd Anderson]

Let's go, Baltimore! Great second half last week. Mark Andrews is returning this week... at home in Charm City. Let's go!

Sorry @JBrax!

That looks about right. I think with KC winning last year and the Lions never winning a Super Bowl, they will both be favored by most fans other than their own fan base. I also think Patrick Mahomes may have run some potential fans off with his temper tantrum a few weeks ago. I know my wife no longer likes him.

 

[Todd Anderson]

The tantrum over the offsides penalty at the end of the game?

 

[Sonnie]

I think that was it. I did not actually see it, but I remember ESPN brought it up and it seems like it was a big deal.

 

[tripplej]

Also, I think folks are tired of seeing Taylor Swift at the Chiefs games and don't want her at the superbowl so add that to the discussion. lol.

 

[JBrax]

The Chiefs have become the villain and I’m here for it! GO CHIEFS!!!!

 

[tripplej]

Let's just hope both games are good competitive games. Hate to see a one sided football game!



Sunday is the day, double header.

Yep... we don't need to see her every time her boyfriend makes a play. I've heard a lot of radio talk about how this is bad for the game and they are going a bit overboard with it... and I agree. That and Kelce's drunk brother with his shirt off embarrassing himself. I guess they just don't realize how stupid they look... and of course, they could care less what others think, that is for sure. Back to the football game please.

Jason Kelce was a bit overboard, for sure. But, it seems like Swift is the victim of the NFL and its camera crews. You can't fault her for wanting to go to the games and enjoy herself... I'm sure she'd prefer not to have it be an issue. Don't ya think?

 

[Sonnie]

I don't fault her, at least for the most part. I like Taylor Swift and some of her songs, but the whole ordeal is just too much in my opinion. I think she enjoys the attention and uses it as a free marketing tool. I fault the NFL, the networks, and the camera crews, although she knows she benefits from it nonetheless. If she didn't want it, don't think for even one second she couldn't stop it.

 

[Todd Anderson]

Maybe. I'm not sure how that works. I recently read that she is now the most recognizable celebrity in the world. So, one could assume her marketing is done .

I'm certainly glad I don't have to evade the public like she does... can you imagine? It must jettison your entire life into a very strange and isolated place.

 

[Sonnie]

Yes... it's difficult... I struggle with it daily.

 

[JBrax]

GO CHIEFS!!!!

 

[Sonnie]

So much for the Harbaugh brothers winning it all, KC is in the big dance. Not surprising really... good team for sure.

Now... who will they play? I am rooting for the underdog Lions, but something tells me it will be the niners.

 

[JBrax]

My goodness…you can’t hate the Chiefs!

 

[Sonnie]

Who said anything about hating the Chiefs? I've been a Chiefs fan for years. Michigan and Harbaugh beat up on Bama, but I was still pulling for both to win it all because I would have liked to see them both win in the same year... would have been pretty cool I think. I don't hate any NFL team.

Congrats to AFC Champs Chiefs

 

[tripplej]

Congrats to the NFC champs 49ers.
