if you spend anytime at this little blog, then you know that i’m a seattle seahawks fan. for my canadian friends, today is our most holiest of days here in the u.s.
forget about christmas or easter or any of that bullshit…today is the super bowl and it’s of even greater sanctity when your team takes the field.
with that in mind, here are my official super bowl xl predictions:
- neither runningback makes a huge difference for either team and two-weeks of defensive prep minimizes the running game until late in the 4th. alexander has more yards total than bettis in a disappointing day for an emotionally overwhelmed bettis.
- roethlisberger stays poised but makes one or two costly mistakes and pays the price of inexperience. Ben throws for 3 TD’s but also floats up 2 interceptions costing his team the comeback they need.
- defense is going to be huge and each team’s respective pacific islander will make an impact.
- matt hasselbeck shows what years under brett favre and mike holmgren’s mentorship can do for a young quarterback and proceeds to have the game of his life! he throws for 300+ yards w/ 3 TD and no interceptions. he is the difference in the game and is named MVP.
Final Score:
Seattle: 30 Pittsburgh: 24
Take the -4 points Vegas is giving Seattle and bet on green!
If of course I’m completely wrong and Pittsburgh wins in a route, then fuck you, what the hell do i know about football? I’m getting my phd in neuroscience not football! get off my back!
Go Hawks!
