[Vision2020] NFL Playoffs

[Scott Dredge]

I'm rooting for the New England Patriots to run the table.  And not because I'm a Patriots fan.  I'd just like to see them shut up the sorest winners in the history of sports - the 1972 Miami Dolphins and their perfect 17-0 season.  And it's a shame, because I really like a lot of those players such as Csonka, Kiick, Yepremian, Griese, and even the coach Don Shula, but I find their comments offensive.  Another team having a perfect season won't invalidate the Dolphins perfect season.  It's a shame they don't see that.

The NFL playoffs are winding down to the conference championship games
 next
weekend.

Final scores this weekend

American Football Conference (AFC):

New England Patriots - 31
Jacksonville Jaguars - 20

Indianapolis Colts - 24
San Diego Chargers - 28

-------------------------

National Football Conference (NFC):

Green Bay Packers - 42
Seattle Seahawks - 20

Dallas Cowboys - 17
New York Giants - 21

With the New York Giants' (as 10-point underdogs) victory over the
 Dallas
Cowboys, I have two words to pass on to Brett Favre, the Packers, and
 the
city of Green Bay . . .

"Eli's Coming" (Eli Manning, that is)

-------------------------------------------

Instead of selecting winners, I will predict the losers.  After all,
 you
can't have winners without losers, right?

AFC Championship:  The San Diego Chargers will lose to the New England
Patriots 17-41.

NFC Championship:  The Green Bay Packers will lose to the New York
 Giants
24-27.

This should provide me one last opportunity to play Three Dog Night's
 "Eli's
Coming" prior to the New York Giants' loss to the New England Patriots
 in
overtime 27-33 at Super Bowl XLII being played February 3, 2008 at the
University of Phoenix Stadium.  That's right, the University of Phoenix
Stadium, a university that consists of a stadium and no campus. 

Seeya round town, Moscow.
