I live in New York so I expect it from the papers and local shows, but every national radio and TV show I have seen has someone picking the Giants. And some think it won't even be close.
I guess I shouldn't even watch the game.
Which moron in Vegas decided that our Patiots should be 3 point favorites? Hardly anyone outside of New England thinks that they can win. Hell, some of our local homer media even think that their chances are slim. :bricks:
Listening to interviews with current and former players on NFL Radio and I hear the same thing each time. "It is hard to pick against New England but I have to go with the Giants."
A few current AFC players, such as JJ Watt, have said, "I am rooting for the AFC team but the Giants should win."
#1) Who in the hell are "our local homer media" and 2) (who among those "homers") "think their chances are slim?"Which moron in Vegas decided that our Patiots should be 3 point favorites?

I have had Sirius on all week and most people seem to be picking the Giants as well.
Does it drive anyone else crazy that these "experts" don't even know that Mayo's name is Jerod, not Gerard? I find myself frequently yelling "JE-ROD!" at the TV.
Did you just feel the Earth stop rotating for 2 seconds??? Carter & Jackson pick the Pats: Sunday Countdown: Your weekly NFL guide - ESPN
I don't know if anyone likes the Pats this weekend, but I do know Blue Horseshoe loves Anacott Steel. FWIW.
Patton baby picks the Pats and has THIS to say to all you trembling with fear..
KILL KILL KILL !
The Las Vegas line does not have anything to do with who is the favorite. It is based on getting people to bet in a way that the house will win no matter how the game turns out.
