Colts-Pats, this Sunday. Let the hype continue. Gregg Easterbrook somewhat jokingly refers to it as the NFL's battle of good vs. evil. This is seriously the most anticipated sporting event for ESPN since the last most anticipated sporting event. This is the Super Duper Bowl. The Pats represent bad sportsmanship, have a jerk for a coach and a pretty boy douche for a quarterback. The Colts represent glorious freedom and capitalism. They have a nice guy best selling author for a coach, a quarterback that's on every football related commercial and a reputation for good sportsmanship. They're the reigning champs. Everything the Pats did this off-season was a response to Reche dropping that pass in the AFC Championship game.
Will the Pats blow out the Colts like everyone else?
No.
Will Brady connect to Moss?
Yes. But expect Bob Sanders to hit Moss every time he gets a chance.
Who will be the star of this game?
Dallas Clark. Everyone expects the other guys to have big games, but Dallas always seems to come up big at the right time.
Will NFL karma play a role in this game?
Yes. This is the game where the Pats' poor sportsmanship, their running up the score comes back to bite them. They're basically a bully that's going to get punched for the first time and they won't like it. Here's the thing about the Pats. They cheated, got caught and then got pissed about and decided to vow to destroy and embarrass the rest of the NFL. But it still doesn't change the fact that they cheated. They were always in the wrong here. They're really just pissed that they got caught. Though it is nice to have a team be a villain again. And anyone who knows me knows that I always thought they were this villainous team disguised as a team pushed by the mainstream sports media as America's team because their name is the Patriots.
Final score?
Colts 31, Pats 24
