Super Bowl weekend is finally upon us. I didn’t win the Visa Super Bowl For Life contest, so I’ll have to live with watching from the comfort of my living room. Judging from the weather in Dallas this week, that’s just fine with me. Since I cheer for a team who’s chances of making the post-season each year are about as good as my contest winning odds, I don’t have much vested in this game. It should be fun to watch though, and for the record I like the Packers over the Steelers 34-28.

Thanks for the mention! I think it will be a good game to watch and Steelers will win. Have fun!
Thanks for the mention. I’m pulling for the Steelers, but I hope to be watching the game with some Packers fans to add some interest.
Thanks for the mention! I’ve been a Packers fan since Favre and after. Rodgers looks solid. Should be a dandy of a game. Enjoy it!
