I was hoping to see the Saints and the Patriots, but this should be a really good game. And close. Both are good teams with struggling quarterbacks out to prove they can win the big one. And the fact Smith and Dungy are best friends just adds to the drama. I'll go with the Bears.
I have always liked the Bears but since my young bride picked the Bears I had to go with the Colts just to keep the next two weeks interesting around the ole dinner table.

BTW, you do realize the Yankees will not be playing in this year's SuperBowl.
Those analogy questions on the verbal part of the SAT must have been tough for you. Here, let's do a practice one:
RED SOX : YANKEES ::
(A) Colts : Bears (B) Yankees : Flyers (C) Patriots : Colts (D) Blue Devils : Blue Jays (E) Good : Evil
ANSWER: Okay, I admit this was kind of a trick question, because there are two possible right answers: (C) and (E). ;-)
But yeah, it was clear from the start of the season that the Yankees totally didn't have what it takes to make it even to the playoffs. They're totally lacking in defensive size, their offense is predictable, and they NEVER make field goals. A team like the Yankees will never succeed in the NFL. If they want any shot at the big games, they're going to have to make some serious changes to their organization. To be honest, I doubt they'll ever be able to pull it off.
[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 01-24-07 AT 08:10AM (CST)[/font][br][br]If the Colts offensive line can hold the Bears, I think the Colts will whallop them!! I had really wanted the Colts and NE to play in the superbowl (which is what we saw last weekend, I guess)!! The playoff games this year have really been exciting. I hope some of the kickers get good bonuses!! E Wart PS I forgot to add, I think the entire Manning family is first class. (Good family values... no children out of wedlock, no arrest for drugs or misbehavior, etc.) I have very good friends who were at UT when Peyton was there. They said there wasn't a nicer guy. Also, friends there now who says he comes back for games and is such a good "regular guy" who goes out to the same "old bars" for a beer with the students and friends. I think time will tell, but feel he will be one of the best QB's ever. He is a true student of the game. Watch his eyes before the hike, he knows where everyone is and what is going on all over. I understand that he studies films, plays, etc for hours.
Seriously! Never underestimate the power of a golden leg!
Also, down here in The Land of Insane Football Fans with 40oz Beers, speculation abounds as to who will be the next Cowboys head coach....any thoughts?
I fear there may be some truth in that. Bob Knight was reported to have implied that Parcells had just had enough of the distractions. Distractions = t.o.

Hmmm... a game of flag football between the Sox and the Yankees would be interesting.
My favorite saying now (when someone gets hurt, usually my kids) is "rub some dirt on it!"
