Countdown to Super Bore Sunday!
The Patsies almost let me down last Sunday, but thanks to some timely Kordell Stewart miscues, the Pats hung on to defeat the Steelers and make their third trip to the Stupid Bowl, just as I predicted they would at the start of the postseason.
Now... If the Pats should somehow manage the unthinkable and topple to Rams on Sunday, I think I should be required to eat my words from the Gehlke Bros. home page that I posted the start of the season, in which I pointed out that every team in the NawFuL has a reason to exist, even the New England Patriots.
Pats as champions? Stranger things have happened. In this, the year of the revived patriotic spirit, perhaps it would be most fitting for the guys with the red, white and blue helmets to win it all. But I'm not betting on it. The Rams will win, and win big. Here's a prediction of 42-13. It will be close for perhaps the first half. But the Superdome might as well be the Rams' home away from dome, if you know what I mean. They all but own the Saints there during the regular season. (Of course, just about every NawFuL team owns the 'Aints.) And because they play there at least once every year, this will just be another stroll through the Big Easy.
